Konnichiwa, Katsuo Shimoe here. Patrols have been sporadic, and after some time on leave to visit the family during New Year's celebrations, I finally managed to compile the reports of past actions where I participated.

On Novemeber 12th, while on a patrol to the northern territories, I was approached by one of the blue alien entities, callsign [color=#FFFF00]Nomad, which tried to transmit messages regarding territory and occupation. Records of the event are sketchy, but we've managed to break off from the encounter without an engagement with the nomad, that command dubbed K'Hara|Zul'Tharus .

-----------

On December, day 6, I departed with [KNF]Kh.H.Ishikawa and [KNF]Ni.Haruna.Sen on a patrol to the Sigma systems, to verify the situation at Planet Kurile. Once again, records of the patrol are few, although there is still footage of an encounter with a Gaian pilot, designation <G>Black.Saurian on Sigma-19.

We also saw a Blood Dragon pilot called Jinpachi.Saika , which we believe was a former representative of the Kyushu-Tomioka Alliance. Seems that organization was indeed rotten at its core.

We glimpsed the BD pilot for a while, before he disappeared in the nebula of Honshu.

--------------

On the 18th of the same month, I launched once again to patrol the northern territories, and after finding nothing more than a Daumann convoy coming from Gallia, I headed to New Tokyo, where I was contacted by [KNF]Nk.Shouzou.Yamada about a odd Hogosha staying at Roppongi, called [HA]-$|Lady.Black.

I questioned the Hogosha lady about the remarks she had made to our pilot, as well as her involvement in a previous encounter with Outcasts. As if on cue, an Outcast gunboat appeared and rammed himself straight into the defense perimeter of New Tokyo, where all and every security personnel got to work and enjoyed filling the Outcast with enriched plasma supplements and military grade warheads. The Outcast exploded in apparent joy for the gifts bestowed upon him.

After ascertaining that the hogosha was not engaging in... "less than acceptable" services, we engaged in some talk until we had to proceed with a patrol to Shikoku, where there were reports of pirate activity.

Yamada located and destroyed one pirate bomber, and we continued our patrol, when reports of the D9 agency being reported on the vicinity of Yokohama Shipyard came in. As I was badly equipped to deal with fighters, I returned to base in New Tokyo to assist in preparations for an appropriate counter.

Location: Battleship Matsumoto, Hokkaido System
Subject: Recent patrols (December 821 A.S., part 2)

Konnichiwa, Katsuo Shimoe here with the continuation of my previous report. The events below related to the period from the 21st of December to today, 4th of January of the new year 822A.S.

-------------------

On the 21st, a patrol was launched in Hokkaido, with pilots [color=#00FF00] [KNF]Kuromaguro and [KNF]Jaaku-na present. We located an Exile Pilot deep within our space, in the Tohoku system. Pilots name was Katsumi.Miu, and while we offered a chance to lay down her arms and return to the duties of the Naval Forces, she refused and seemed ready to fight for her beliefs, as many Kusarians do.

Considering the situation, we were expecting the Dragons to be the next ones to show up, but seems some Order pilots decided to break our expectations. Passing nonchalantly in front of us to Hokkaido, me and Jaaku-na gave chase, while Kuromaguro offered to deal with the Exile on his own.

We intercepted the Order vessels, and they exhibited a underlying hatred for Kusari, as well some symptoms of Harris Syndrome. With the help of a newly arrived Kempeitai agent Aya.Shameimaru , the Order vessels [n*o]-Sergi.Salgado and [n*o]-Jose.Ramirez were neutralized for the wellbeing of Kusari.

We contacted Kuromaguro about his status, and made way to Tohoku to find him in combat with the Exile. Actually, we find them shooting at yet another (?) Order vessel, who had interfered with their duel. The Order vessel was put down by the Exile pilot soon enough.

As to vindicate the premonitions we had jokingly made before, the Blood Dragons finally appeared, with a wing of fighters. An exchange of words occurred between all parties, and it seemed we would be at disadvantage in numbers if it weren't for the appearance of Naval Forces pilot Cho.Okamura.

List of Blood Dragon pilots present:

BD|Yuki.Hasios
BD|Kiyoshi.Kazuo
BD|Yoshiko.Kawaguchi

Soon the situation was looking dire, and before the Dragons could outnumbers us with further reinforcements, I ordered the Naval Forces to attack the Dragons present. Even with Jaaku-na in a naval bomber not being able to help in the dogfight, our pilots skill was above the skill of the Dragons, and soon their pilots began to falter. A Dragon Gunboat, BD|Mt.Zao appeared to reinforce their side, but concentrated fire on the new threat neutralized him rapidly before he could turn the tide.

With Kiyoshi.Kazuo down and the gunboat taking our attention, the most vocal of the Dragons Yuki.Hasios , which may have been referred as "Shogun" managed to flee under the clouds of combat, same with the Exile Katsumi.Miu. When the Mt.Zao was struck down there was only the Dragon pilot BD|Yoshiko.Kawaguchi on the field, and seeing we had achieved a good victory already, I requested that one of my pilots took him on a duel, with the promise of a safe withdrawal if the Dragon was victorious.

Once again Kuromaguro took the place, and battled it out, but we were interrupted by the arrival of one of the legendary Togo class Battleships, BD|Mt.Fuji , with a support ship BD|Lake.Hibara . As we had achieved our goals, and Kuromaguro had let go the last fighter, the wing was ordered to pull back to Hokkaido and the Matsumoto.

Two (three?) Order fighters were taken down, as well as one BD fighter and gunboat, while we suffered no casualties in the encounter. And additional Exile and BD 2 fighters escaped, while we avoided engagement with the enemy capital ship.

--------------

Later on that day, I launched my bomber to assist Jaaku-na and Kuromaguro in locating a Nomad vessel lurking around in Hokkaido. Seems the sighting had attracted a considerable number of onlookers to the location, which was highly unusual.

Things were pretty confusing, even with the Nomad not showing up. We had this Rheinland Professor Hans.von.Goeben which I had met before on an expedition to the Omicrons, as well an assorted lot of Kempeitai and civilian agents. Von.Goeben-san seems somewhat knowledgeable about the nomads, which makes me concern if the Rheinland Military is in possession of vast knowledge regarding the Nomads, more than anything we have on the Naval or Intelligence databases, if even this seemingly independent professor can know this much.

A Blood Dragon pilot, Hojo.Claw , came up, and Kuromaguro engaged the hostile in a prolonged fight.

As if there wasn't enough confusion about the situation, the BD|Mt.Fuji made another appearance, and things got tense, until we determined that the Captain Yuki.Hasios (so she probably was the Shogun after all) came with the intention of calling a truce for the day, and deliver some captives.

Meanwhile, a civilian in a ship named Akapai was becoming boastful and disrespectful to the Naval Officers present, for not so clear reasons. As he insisted in insulting the officers and the Republic, we charged him with a fine and eviction of the system. He didn't respond appropriately to the orders, and I ordered to the Naval Forces to arrest him. A miscalculation in the usage of multiple bomber weaponry took down his shield and caused critical damage to his vessel. All crewmen were quickly recovered from the escape pods and delivered safely to Otaru Border Station.

As the Mt.Fuji disappeared into the clouds again, our main target resurfaced from wherever it was hiding, this K'Hara|Zaqar . While our pilots were eager to exterminate the threat, I tried to know more of the relation of the professor with them, and to attempt to make them leave our space once for all. A grave mistake on my part, as the nomad showed hostility, and took down Jaaku-na, which had been immobilized by some unknown phenomenon. I ordered the others to engage, while the professor and an Hogosha blabered on the background, seemingly impassive in face of the carnage being exhibited.

Soon I was struck down by the nomad weaponry, and it took us a while to have the area clear for the recovery vessel to come pick us up. I do not know of the fate of the other pilots, nor of the civilians.

That concludes my report of last year activities. Katsuo Shimoe signing off.

Konnichiwa, this is Intelligence Officer Yamada. We have collected several operation reports during the current month, and present them now for the Naval Forces Database.

-----

Patrol Vessel: KDS-Shimotsuki (Captain: Enomoto)
Date: 01-01-822
Title: LNS gunboat intercepted in Kusari space

A LNS vessel was intercepted near Shinjuku, in New Tokyo system. The captain of the LNS.Sovereign wished to move to the Taus, with clear intentions of causing havoc to Gallia security and shipping forces. We refused his request and escorted him back to Kepler. The Shimotsuki counted with the aid of Naval Forces Fuminori.Ujihara, and successfully completed his mission.

-------

Patrol Vessel: KDS-Shimotsuki (Captain: Enomoto)
Date: 01-01-822
Title: Outcast gunboat intercepted in Tohoku

An outcast vessel called Teleban was found loitering near Battleship Sado, in the Tohoku system. Vessel was ordered to abandon the system, and the Outcast requested to leave to the Omicron passage in the system. The request was granted, and the criminal was escorted to the Omicron-92 jumphole.

---------

Patrol Vessel: Fuji-1
Date: 02-01-822
Title: LNS.Sovereign intercepted in New Tokyo.

Once again the Libertonian vessel was intercepted while trying to pass Kusari towards the Taus. [KNF]KDS-Jubokko gunboat was the first to encounter the vessel, and the LNS was ordered again to return to Kepler. Once again, we counted on the assistance of Fuminori.Ujihara . Contact with elements of the Liberty Navy 5th Fleet was made, and upon arrival at Deshima, the offending captain was delivered to the 5th Officers who had came to retrieve it.

---------

Patrol Vessel: Fuji-1
Date: 21-01-822
Title: Junker vessels found in Kyushu

Nagumo patrol Fuji-1 found some Junker gunboats surrounded by an IMG group and a KP officer. Before any information could be retrieved, the Police officer retired from the scene, and while the IMG was claiming for the Junker blood, no crime other than their presence had been witnessed. They were ordered back to the taus with a 2M fine imposed to each vessel.

-----------

Patrol Vessel: KDS-Shimotsuki (Captain: Enomoto)
Date: 21-01-822
Title: Large engagement in Kyushu

A few moments later, the Junker vessels were found in violation of their deportation orders. The KDS-Shomtsuki was sent into the area, together with [KNF]Jaaku-na and [KNF]Ni.Haruna.Sen .
With the assistance of some Corse members, and a [KP]KDS-Kuchiku (Takeda class Destroyer), we engaged a large group of JM, Outcast and other pirates.

Our efforts managed to take down a Outcast gunboat, but both the Shimotsuki and Jaaku-na, and the KP destroyer as well, were incapacitated during the operation. Nitto Kaii Haruna Sen managed successfully to retreat when ordered, as the battle was not going to our favor.

-----------

Patrol Vessel: KDS-Ashigara
Date: 22-01-822
Title: Blood Dragon engagement in Hokkaido

A large Blood Dragon vessel was detected in Honshu, and Command had suspicions that it could be the Flagship spotted before in other encounters. Two Battleships were dispatched together with a bomber wing to track and destroy the vessels.

The BD|Mt.Fuji was located and destroyed in the middle of the Hokkaido system, while trying to return to their hideout. The Kusari finished the vessel, not requiring the support of the KDS-Ashigara.

Other vessels present included the Destroyer [KNF]KDS-Chokai and the pilot [KNF]Ii.Dayu.Yamo .

-------

Patrol Vessel: [KNF]KDS-Zanza|66th
Date: 24-01-822
Title: Blood Dragon engagement in Kepler

Reports of large movement of Blood Dragon vessels in the southern region were received, and some engagements were made against the force of one Battleship (BD|Mt.Fuji) and one cruiser (BD|Mt.Haguro).

On the second engagement, the Battlecruiser Zanza, together with Destroyer Chokai and pilot Ni.Haruna Sen, tried to eliminate the Blood Dragon threat, but were unsuccessful, with the result being the critical damage on the Chokai, and the Zanza incapacitated.

---------

Those are all the reports presented. Yamada Kei, signing off.

Konnichiwa, Shimoe here with a pile of work delayed. I'll get right to it.

On the 3rd of January, in the begging of new year operations, I have made a patrol through New Tokyo, and met an agent of the SASF (Sirius Alliance), named Adam Rockford.
=/SASF\=Adam.Rockford^ brought news from the organization, which we haven't heard anything since the last meeting with Vice Admiral John Hayter. According to Commander Rockford, most of the high command has been dismissed, with grave implications that it was related to Liberty.
We discussed the maintenance of the relationship between the Naval Forces and the Alliance Fleet, and the need of operations in Rheinland and Liberty for the future.

Unfortunately, our conversation was interrupted by a mysterious wizard on a foreign ship, and his conjuring of strange aberrations in New Tokyo space. The illusions vanished before any forces could come to our aid.

We have met once again, on the ruins of the old Freeport 7, and discussed further the possibility of a mission to Liberty.

----------------

Spoiler

-----------------

On the 12th, I joined [KNF]Ii.Dayu.Yamo on a patrol to Tohoku, where we found a lost zoner transport, (\^/)Hayabusa . After a few words and a security scan of the zoner, we directed him to Okinawa jumphole.

We then did a patrol sweep on Hokkaido, Rishiri and New Tokyo, with few other incidents of note.

-------------

On the 12th of January, I headed to Frankfurt system on request of Commander Rockford of the SASF, to discuss some topics with the Rheinland forces. Unfortunately Comander Rockford wasn't able to arrive at the meeting in Fulda Border Station, and my encounter resumed only to New Year greetings to the agents of the BDM, with offerings of Kusari products.

-----------------

On the 14th, our forces met a IMG convoy passing through New Tokyo and Kusari space at large. They reported being shadowed by a Nomad scout, and we did confirm it a few minutes after. We tried to neutralize it, but it proved illusive.

Such Illusiveness gave indication of some larger activity, and our forces did met a small pack of Nomads in the clouds of Hokkaido.
A pair of large nomads torn down our gunboat on duty, and the remaining bomber wing retreated to safe locations.

On the 15th I've met with [color=#006400]Commander Rockford again, and talked about their progress. Seems they have found good support with Rheinland Military, and were planning more actions on Liberty in turn.
We were interrupted by a transmission from Liberty Navy forces in Kepler, and we headed there. Seems the LNS were looking for a fugitive Lane Hacker transport. We didn't arrive in time to assist, but we shared information about the event.

Spoiler

------

On the 16th, we had information of a Blood Dragon vessel attacking Samura shipping on Yokohama. The criminal was beaten by security forces before my arrival anyway.

The Samura seemed high spirited by the successful action, boasting about Rice and the balanced Kusari diet. I escorted the trader to the Rishiri gate, where I returned to base.

----------------------

I have requested to Fleet command the commission of some heavy bombers for our Squadron on the Matsumoto, and we were granted a limited number of Waran heavy bombers, capable of delivering a world of pain to the larger enemy assets. On the 25th of January, we were able to test them on a field operation against Outcast vessels in Shikoku.
A fleet of Outcast capital with escort were detected in Shikoku, and our forces assembled on Planet Junyo, before heading to the vicinity of Deshima and engaging the criminals, with the aid of Hogosha irregulars and Bounty hunter forces.

In the end all Outcast vessels were neutralized, and many of the crew taken prisoner to Fuchu.
KNF forces present included [KNF]KDS-Chokai , [KNF]Jaaku-na , [KNF]Ik.Yuki.Soga , and Katori.

-----------------
January 29th
Another action in the South, this time in Kepler against Blood Dragon forces, who had declared a blockade to traffic. [KNF]Ik.Yuki.Soga and I joined with LSF forces int he field to eliminate the Dragon threat, with LSF making the most of the efforts this time.

------------------

February 11th
Went to New Tokyo for a minor assignment, and joined a patrol led by [KNF]Ni.Haruna.Sen , under supervision of [KNF]Kh.H.Ishikawa . Teaching the basics of command to new officers is an important step in their progression.

-----------------

February 15th

KNF and KSP forces got involved in a clash with a gc: raiding party. I don't recall the details of the encounter, but I know that the Golden C forces were numerous, and I was defeated during combat.

------------

February 22nd

KNF arranged a patrol to the Tau-29 system. Members involved included me, [KNF]Kh.H.Ishikawa , [KNF]Ii.Dayu.Yamo and [KNF]Ni.Rita.Hitoshi .

When we were passing through Freeport 6, we stumbled upon a horrible sight, as members of a Liberty Organization D9| (intelligence points primarily at a LSF operation), armed with a Siege cruiser and fighter wing, were assaulting the Freeport.
Almost at the same time, a squadron of Kusari Exiles showed up. Although the Exiles were a threat, there was an obvious priority of stopping the section D9| crimes against the Civilians.

We thrown our forces against the D9| escorts, while the Exiles focused on the Liberty Gunboat that was supporting them. A single zoner security ship was there to assist in the defense of the Freeport.
With the neutralization of the enemy gunboat and some of their fighters, we also turned our guns on the remaining Exiles, before they got the chance to reorganize after the Libertonian Siege Cruiser faded away in retreat.

In the end, we managed to rout the Liberty force, and to take down many of the surviving Exile forces, with minimal damage to our patrol. Fortune certainly smiled to us on this day.

We sent the intel to Central Intelligence Quarters, so that they could review and determine the source of the D9|operations.

---------------------
February 25th
We received a distress call from a group of Core operatives, somewhere in Tohoku. Although it was strange, we reacted fast against the opportunity to flank a large Blood Dragon force that they had encountered.
Bringing to the field the [KNF]KDS-Ise and the pilots [KNF]Ni.Rita.Hiroshi and [KNF]ii.Dayu.Yamo , we arrived and engaged the Dragon forces, which included the BD|Mt. Fuji Battleship, and the BD|Mt.Kita cruiser.

The Core took some loses, and our ships were heavily damaged, but we managed to disable both the Fuji and the Kita, as well as neutralizing most of the escorts.

In the end we questioned the Core, and their representative, Nodviet, about their presence in Tohoku. Seems they can track the Order movements in the Omicrons, and "hinted" they would put obstacles in the path of the terrorists that would prevent them from approaching Kusari that easily.

That concludes my report of these last months. Katsuo Shimoe signing off.

Location: Battleship Matsumoto, Hokkaido System
Subject: Hokkaido patrol (March 14th, 822A.S.)

Konnichiwa command, Itto Kaisa Katsuo Shimoe here. It has been my first patrol since my rank promotion, and decided to file it in as soon as it was completed.

I have launched from the Matsumoto on my Umibozu at the request of [KNF]Ii.Rita.Hitoshi. , which had reported pirate activity in New Tokyo and Hokkaido. As I was heading out to meet her, I stumbled upon an Outcast Detroyer, designation Pirate-Pete.

The Outcast was standing in the intersection of the Kyofu gap, probably striking the regular convoys in the system. I asked Hitoshi-san to come to my location, and she warned me of another hostile she was chasing would be arriving at the same position. Indeed, Tseng_Chan of the Blood Dragons arrived followed by our own pilot.

We exchanged few words with the two criminals, none of them willing to leave the area and surrender the captives they had in their possession. I ordered the strike, and we began hammering the Outcast first.

The vessel weaponry was not suited for combat against smaller targets, and it's defenses were lighter than common for a convoy raider. The outcast tried some emergency rescue systems, but they couldn't prevent his ship destruction.

We then focused on the blood dragon, and although reinforcements for our side were coming, me and Rita-san managed to neutralize the criminal gunboat before they could arrive, with a combined bombing strike that overloaded its defenses. I got credit for the final blow on the Pirate-Pete, while Rita-san landed the deadly blow on the Blood Dragon.

We managed to retrieve a lot of captives from the Outcast raider, saving them from imprisonment and slavery in some faraway land, or into some Golden Chrysanthemum harem.

I returned to the Matsumoto, and after repairing and delivering the captives and recovered cargo,I launched on my fighter back to the Hokkaido space.

Spoiler

--------------------

[KNF]Iguru and the KDS-Kongo arrived later on to secure the area, and they managed to caught a AFC transport, designation {AFC}-Blazing.Angel[P] . Pilot was flying a Pirate train, and carrying Fusion Diodes without a permit. Iguru-sanclaimed that he belonged to an Archangels Fighter's Club, and were once found in possession of Artifacts in her patrol.

However, having no records and no way to confirm this information, I presented the AFC vessel with a 3Million fine for the Ship and cargo, and an escort to Rishiri. Fine was paid to Iguru, and the "freelancer" escorted to the Gallic lanes.

The pilot seemed cooperative enough, and fancy striking on our female elements for a chance of a date. Odd bunch. However, while it's transponder seemed neutral to me, it received bad responses from the Matsumoto and Otaru border station, and same reaction from Misaki defenses.

Igiru-san recommended keeping an eye on any AFC activity in the territory. While without having any further evidence than the pirate train vessel, I have a feeling they might have something rotten under their hides. It would be wise to record any encounters with them from now on.

Spoiler

That concludes my report. Katsuo Shimoe, signing off.

Konnichiwa, this is Intelligence Officer Yamada. More reports have been piling up, and will follow for processing now.

--------------------------

January 29th, Matsu patrol from Akita Border Station, in the Honshu system, intercepted a Junker frigate filled with H-fuel from unknown origins. It was ordered to stop and surrender all cargo as in the Codex terms when dealing with criminal entities. The Junker called Pat_Stone complied with the cargo surrender, the payment of the fine, and was deported to Sigma-13.

Febuary 1st, Matsu Patrol was called once again to support an ongoing patrol in the Honshu system. They intercepted a Gallic Junker vessel, called [Bentuzi] . The ship was detained and fined a million credits for trespassing into Kusari territory as a pilot of an unwelcome affiliation, in an illegal ship.

1 2 3

Patrol that was to escort the pilot back to Gallic borders was interrupted by a Blood Dragon cruiser, denomination Ore, and left the junker to deal with the threat. However, issues on the telemetry of the Matsu-3 prevented him from taking part on the battle. It is known that the BD was taken cared of by pilots [KNF]Jaaku-na and [KNF]Ik.Yuki.Soga

------------

Exile activity has risen in the Kyushu sector, as reports from the Fuji patrol confirm.

On the 4th of February, Fuji patrol of the KDS-Nagumo was launched to defend against elements of the Exile forces, namely the Zenith /Z/ division. He joined officers [KNF]Kh.H.Ishikawa and [KNF]Ii.Dayu.Yamo against elements of /Z/ , in the Tsushima sector of Kyushu.

1 2

Additional hostiles, in the form of a GC pilot and a freelancer under her payroll were present, and equally hostile to the Government forces and Exiles.

Fuji-2, who provided the report, was neutralized by the GC pilot, and the result of the battle is unknown until more reports arrive to confirm it.

------------------------

February 6th, Honshu/New Tokyo systems

Matsu patrol out of Honshu detected an Outcast gunship, callsign [FCiS]Eddy , which was taken down for piracy by the Matsu and [KNF]KDS-Jubokko . Survivors were directed to Fuchu prison.

On the 25th of that month, Planet Honshu received some envoys from the Rheinland BDM , BDM|U-200 and BDM|Agf-Geoff.Einfeld. Oberinspektor Lisa Schneider was present on board of the U-200.

1 2 3 4

Small conversation was exchanged between KNF and BDM pilots.

---------------

On the first of March, Fuji patrol based on the Nagumo was deployed to assist officer [KNF]Ii.Rita.Hitoshi on the destruction of a hostile Outcast destroyer, designation OC-Shlizhak . Reinforcements from the KDS-Kongo and [KNF]Nk.Shouzou.Yamada arrived, and we swiftly put the Outcast down.

March 14th, Tau-29 system

Pilot of the Fuji-2 was lost during a skirmish with Blood Dragons in the system, while trying to protect his wingmates. [KNF]Kh.Ryoma.Sakamoto and [KNF]Ii.Haruna.Sen participated on the combat.

March 15th
Fuji Patrol was called once again. This time, the patrol in the Tau 29 reported multiple Nomad vessels of large bulk. While the Fuji did not find any targets like that, the pilots in the field were carrying nomad samples, and were terrified of what they saw.

On return to the Freeport, we located a Liberty Carrier Renao, and some Exiles. Suddenly, A Sorcerer showed up, and conjured a Vision of Multiple Gallic Navy Valors, who promptly chased the Liberty Carrier and devoured him, much to the shock and amazement of everyone present. Except for the Liberty Carrier crew, of course.

Witnessing the acts of sorcery, we immediately retreated back to the safety of the Nagumo and Kusari, and had difficulty to find a way to report the events to our officer as he arrived to our location.

We also had first evidences of Exile patrols flying what is obviously civilian crafts of Hogosha design. Central Intelligence is investigating if these are old surplus from the Seto campaign, or new acquisitions.

18th March, Shikoku system

Captain Enomoto, who recently took command of the rechristened ship [KNF]KDS-Kirishima , participated in a large operation against Liberty Rogue raiding party in the Shikoku system. The KNF forces were having difficulty in dealing with the multiple gunboat class vessels, and the Kirishima was fundamental to break the resistance of the Rogues still present when she joined in the late stages of the battle.

Officers present included:

[KNF]Sk.Dayu.Yamo
[KNF]Ii.Rita.Hitoshi
Seiji.Raidensamuk

Kempeitai [KPT]Aika.Kyoko

March 21st

Commander Yuuka Nakazono of the [KNF]KDS-Shimotsuki reported assisting a KNF patrol in escorting a Rheinland Military capital ship from the Tau systems to the Rheinland border, after this ship suffered a freak jumpdrive incident that throw it off course.

1 2 3

Upon arrival on Honshu, the Shimotsuki suffered an electronic assault, and her systems were disabled for a few moments. When the ship recovered, it was found that a Lane Hacker in a bomber was in the area, and the patrol was called back to assist the destroyer.

The KNF officers deemed fit to aprehend the Lane Hacker LH-Mactan.Surpressor , who tried to blackmail the Naval Officers with "leaks" of intel to Liberty about something related to the RM vessel. He resisted arrest and tried to elude the Naval Forces in the nebula.

Unfortunately, an untimely arrival of a Blood Dragon party made it impossible to capture the Lane Hacker.

Enemy Dragon forces consisted of a battleship BDW-Okinoshima , with a cruiser BD|Mount.Kita and two BD| fighters in escort. The Shimotsuki was immediately ordered to abandon the battlefield as it was unsuitable against those opponents.

The battle occurred later, with the KNF forces amassing a strong counterforce to deal with the Blood Dragons, achieving superiority in numbers and firepower against the Battleship and Cruiser.

---------------------

On the 22nd of March, the KDS-Shimotsuki under Commander Nakazono accompanied a courtesy mission to the Frankfurt system, where we were received by a member of the RM.

1 2 3 4 5

Meanwhile, the force also encountered elements of the VWA organization, which conversed with the KNF for a long while, before the KNF patrol returned to Kusari space. The RM pilot engaged one of the activists, and unfortunately had to return to Mainz in the hold of a passing RFP vessel.

On the 25th, the KDS-Shimotsuki was severely crippled by an attack of raiding pirate transports flying under the banner of the Junker Marauders. No further intel is available.

On the same day, the [KNF]KDS-Shinano returned to active duty, taking it's position as leading ship of the 3rd Battlecruiser Div. in Kyushu. the [KNF]KDS-Kirishima was there to escort him to the system.

Same day, Tokkeitai agent Kyohime led a patrol to the Tau and neighboring systems, covering Baffin and most of the edge of the Kusari borders. One of the JM transports was found during this patrol, but was not pursued. Officer [KNF]Ii.Rita.Hitoshi was present too.

Kiyohime was willing to take some chances, and led the patrol through a quick pass in the Chugoku system, discrete enough to not alert all the Dragon forces lurking in the system.

On return to Kyushu, we stumbled upon another exile force, near Tsushima again. [KNF]Sk.Dayu.Yamo joined us in the field, and we engaged the /Z/ with some advantage.

Only one confirmed destruction, unknown the results of the battle.

We also saw one additional Exile, flying a very heavy fighter similar with the Hogosha designs, and docking with haste and little resistance on Tsushima depot.

Konnichiwa command, Itto Kaisa Katsuo Shimoe here. Yesterday we performed a patrol on Hokkaido, with several incidents to report.

As I was waiting for my wingman for this mission near Otaru, a sudden surge of energy directly above me revealed a zoner whale transport (FromHell) deactivating his cloaking device and initiating docking procedures on the base without warning.

The transport was carrying a large load of Black Market Munitions, but I was unable to intercept it or question it. Hopefully the KSP inside can deal with it.

--------------

Patrol Wing:
Ik. Katsuo Shimoe
Kh. Hideaki Ishikawa

Kaisho-ho Ishikawa Hideaki arrived a few moments later I've reported to him the zoner vessel, and we started a patrol on the civilian route through Hokkaido. Not soon after, we found a large gathering of Blood Dragon scouts, with two fighter pilots at its center.

Hostiles present:

BD|Shana:Nesho'en
BD|S-Shinji.Hirako
Tycus.Walker (arrived during combat)
BD|Kaaga,Sano (arrived During combat)

Both pilots where in Tachi model very heavy fighters, and looking for trouble apparently. Ishikawa in some strange manner immediately identified them as newcomers of the Dragon ranks, due to their behaviour.
We offered them a visit to Fuchu prison, which they could not pass up.

Shinji Hirako was neutralized, but not before some unannounced foreigner in a waran arrived ( Tycus.Walker ), and declared his hostile intentions. Ishikawa saw fit to deal with the foreigner first, and so it was done.

Another dragon arrived to assist (BD|Kaaga,Sano) , but was also quickly disposed. With only Shana:Nesho'en left, Ishikawa passed the job for me and stood watch as I battled the heavily armored Blood Dragon.

My skill was not enough to dominate the combat, but the agility of the Chimaera proved superior to the Tachi's firepower and defense, and the Dragon was shot down as well.

With the ship heavily damage from the last combat, and barely flyable, Ishikawa escorted me back to the Matsumoto, where I docked and handed over several prisoners and recovered equipment.

In total, four hostile targets were neutralized, against one heavily damaged fighter out of two.

Several weapons with markings of the APM company were found, although I cannot determine from which hostile they came, or if they were in use. It's possible that one of the Dragons, or the criminal Tycus.Walker , have been in recent combats with the Bounty Hunters or Core elements.

----------
There was a split patrol to Honshu and Kyushu, but other than Hideaki Ishikawa producing some fines on a AFC ship, I have nothing to report about those.

Katsuo Shimoe, signing off.

Konnichiwa, this is Intelligence Officer Yamada. We have received a couple of reports form activities of KNF vessels in Honshu and New Tokyo. I'll pass them through.

--------------------------

Commander Enomoto, Captain of the KDS-Kirishima

Good day, Commander Enomoto here. Our ship has participated on the actions against the Blood Dragons on the 24th of this month.

While performing patrol duties in New Tokyo ( 1 and 2), we were requested by Nito Kaisa (Commander) Yamada Shouzou to join up with a KNF/KPT/KSP taskforce, move out to Honshu, and engage a Blood Dragon Raiding Party.

From records, we counted the following elements of the taskforce, in addition to ourselves.

[KNF]Nk.Shouzou.Yamada
[KPT]Aika.Kyoko
Issei.Hanegawa.
Raya;Osaku
KSP|KDS-Musashimaru
KSP|KDS-Seto
KDS-Hisokaya

---------------

On the vicinity of Planet Honshu, we located the BD|Mt.Fuji Battleship, accompanied by at least 2 Cruiser class vessels, and several vessels of gunboat class or lower.

R.Admiral Ishikawa was coordinating most of the action, and we engaged the Mt.Fuji as a primary target.

With some sacrifice we managed to cripple the Mt.Fuji , but the arrival of a second battleship, BD|Mt.Kongo , caught us in a tactical disadvantage, and the Kirishima suffered critical damage.

Also reported the sighting of an Exile aligned Destroyer vessel in the battlezone.

The Kirishima has been recovered back to Yukawa, where it has been undergoing repairs.

End Report

---------------------------

Commander Yuuka Nakazono, KDS-Shimotsuki

Yesterday evening we resumed patrols on the civilian corridors of Honshu-New Tokyo, as part of security measures for KNF operations.

We located a strange zoner vessel (FromHell) in possession of Black Market Munitions, and giving use to an illegal cloaking device. We lost contact with the vessel on the way to Shinagawa station.

A second smuggler ( Lance_Charger ) appeared on New Tokyo orbit, in possession of a stock of black market munitions. Pilot ignored orders to halt, and landed on New Tokyo to escape our grasp.

A few moments later, it appeared again and attempted escape to Shinjuku, but was prevented from departing, and resorted to evasion and return to New Tokyo, against the orders of the KNF in the field.

He appeared a third time, but at this moment [KNF]Kh.H.Ishikawa was with us to control his movements. It seems Ishikawa had just met him in a previous patrol, carrying cardamine in direction to Liberty, and had also disobeyed commands to stop and face justice.
At first he seemed willing to compensate for his crimes, but started insulting the officers on the field and to leave before he could be presented with the charges laid upon him. I've ordered the destruction of his vessel and arrest of the pilot, so that we could prosecute him in conditions.
The vessel was shot down by the combined firepower of the KNF patrol.
