Heard that an indie fool was flying a battleship in Omicron Rho *swears to himself*, none of these stupid people know the laws of the Empire.
Also, I was in Omicron Delta and there was a giant gathering of AI Cruisers. Thankfully the AI did not notice me or I would have been done for. I have no idea why they were there, but I thought the Elders would like to know.
Adios, 'manos.

A battleship capitan who orders his vessel to travel outside the area of operation the elders agreed on, because he did not know about it is merely ignorant, not stupid.
There is no such thing as stupid people amigo, just stupid deeds.
If you had any communications with this capitan, I hope you've adressed him with the proper respect a capitan deserves.
For his part, I hope el Capitan replied to you with the respect a member of the Corsair Brotherhood deserves, and changed his course.
If not, tell us the name of his ship and under my authority as Tribune I will personally contact him.
It is muy importante that the Corsair fleets operate in unity.
The Elders are not amused with a situation where every familia that can affort a battleship goes out to space to fulfill their own agenda, instead of serving the needs of us all, the Corsair Empire.
I have forwarded your information about the AI fleet movements in Omicron Delta to the elders and they spoke most rewarding of your efforts.
We live in a universe where information is worth more than gold.
Do continue with gathering information on these AI.
I apoligize for my words against the captain. I did not speak with him, I heard this information from a freelance trader in Omega-41. Thus, I do not know the name of the ship, I just felt I should report this information to you.

Hola hermanos y hermanas! I was on route to Omega 7 system for a routine patrol. As soon as I jumped there, I met carabinero Goncalo Nunes of the 57th next to the jump hole. I greeted him, but he seemed to be inert and he showed no interrest of my presence. He behaved really strange... Well, here is my record of the encounter:
Quote:[57th]Goncalo.Nunes.: What? Oh I am soo sorry darling, I can't believe I got married and don't even remember.
Jose.Juarez[TBH]: What?
*seconds of silence*
Jose.Juarez[TBH]: Hermano? What is going on?
[57th]Goncalo.Nunes.: What? Where did they go?
[57th]Goncalo.Nunes.: Ohh hola carabinero.
[57th]Goncalo.Nunes.: Did not see you there.
Jose.Juarez[TBH]: Me? I am Soldato...
[57th]Goncalo.Nunes.: Ah I am sorry.
[57th]Goncalo.Nunes.: What?
[57th]Goncalo.Nunes.: How could you betray the Emperio?
Jose.Juarez[TBH]: And... What are you talking about for... *sighs*
Jose.Juarez[TBH]: Too many of rum?
[57th]Goncalo.Nunes.: Explain yourself!
Jose.Juarez[TBH]: I am sorry, you behave strange.
[57th]Goncalo.Nunes.: You will regret shooting at me.
Jose.Juarez[TBH]: I didn't shoot anything! Stop it!
Jose.Juarez[TBH]: Definitely drunk... engaging.
[57th]Goncalo.Nunes.: I don't believe you.
Jose.Juarez[TBH]: Stop it!
*Few seconds of fire exchange*
Jose.Juarez[TBH]: Stop firing immediately!
[57th]Goncalo.Nunes.: Stop shooting you god damn nomad!
Jose.Juarez[TBH]: Well!
*Suddenly my cockpit exploded, glass cracked and I felt strong headache*
Jose.Juarez[TBH]: Damn!
*I destroyed Nunes' ship and immediately tractored his lifepod into my Titan.*
I quickly realised what I did.. I really didn't look forward to his and mine explanation but suddenly I heard angry voice in my own head. Libertonian Defiant class gunboat appeared from nowhere and opened fire on my ship. It took some seconds to notice, but it's weapon projectiles were violed, not light blue as usual.. It was odd, maybe we should investigate it to details. I jumped into Omega 5 as soon as possible. Gunboat didn't follow me, but what happend was.. unbelievable, I haven't drank anything this day, but suddenly my cockpit was whole complete and headache passed! I carried myself and senor Nunes to rehabilitation on Cadiz, well.. not really a rehabilitation, we are just complaining about what happened.. I am just taking my third shot of rum, need to chill down.. *smiles*

Hola hermanos y hermanas! Yesterday at this time I was patrolling the space around our base in Omicron Delta. I am still figuring out what exactly was going on and thinking about it again and again. Shame that computers can't record alien thoughts. However, I try to describe in detail what happened.
I was flying around Nauru. Everything was allright before I saw the Nomad being. It cloaked immediately... What a shame. But it wanted to communicate. At first, the alien was asking me what I am doing in their space. I was wondering how he, she... it... whatever could think the space around Yaren belongs to them. When I asked where is it's home.. I felt it's thoughts shattered in irony.. disbelief.. hard to describe. I explained that the Yaren is clear evidence of fact that the Imperio is owner of the space arnound. Omicron Delta lacks Nomad structures as far as I know, but then, the alien entity "told" me that comparing humans to Nomads is futile, that I can't understand. At least it showed me that they are native to this space sector, that that we are foreigners here. I defended myself with: "If I understand well, you were here for longer times.. but as I said, you -were-... now it seems you aren't here for ages." It turned my words against me with quite offensive tone. That my words are only concept of desire. Trying to told the Nomad how the things are: "No, the truth" Seems that the alien being wasn't happy with the truth. It hit me. Hit me with itself! First time I met the aliens, I hope first time. And such agressive behavior. So I dropped a mine, turned around and saw it hitting something invisible.. "Oh, sorry gringo. Do it hurts?" I was quite laughing at this moment. After seconds of having clear mind, my mind, unsure about the alien's, it continued arguing. Telling me that they are native to Sirius sector, that we invaded it.. and what hit me the most.. That I am childish! But I stayed with chilled mind. So I decided to play it's game: "Oh.. well. We didn't know this sector was intended to be inhabited by your kind. Before humanity realised it, it got to be impossible to pull away. We colonised sector which was supposed to be lacking intelligent lifeforms." Then the entity told me something like: "Expectations aren't made on lack of preparations." The Nomad wasn't intending to reveal itself.. so I continued to argue: "We were not able to get knowledge.. also, humans.. I mean the other humans.. stole our place between stars. And stole your, but not intentionally. The human colonisation of this sector is not avoidable in the current degree.." It turned to be boring, but I didn't fill up my ship with rum, unfortunately. The Nomad tried to convince me, and humanity to return to home, seems it meant the Sol system But who knows what exactly happened to it. Then the Nomad's thoughts went far stronger than anytime before. I saw the Omicron Eta neverending battles.. various fights with those sniffers. Bretonia cracking below heels of Gallia.... all filled with debris fields... just in few seconds. The Nomad thoughts seemt to be warning, it calmed down slightly. But not enought to prevent it to calling me parasite, that we will repeat the past and other unbelievable things. Then I tricked it so hard! I asked it what would they do to get the sector under their controll. But as I expected. It wasn't sharing it's knowledge with me. Got something like that my persistance is futile. Now it's time to dring it away with rum, a lot of rum.

Dear Elders,
I got a good new to bring. As you already know, few years ago, the Martillo, a gunboat class vessel was badly damaged during a fight with the hessians. We abandonned the ship in Malvada cloud for quite some time.
*Smile amused*
Few months ago, the Rodriguez's Familia Battleship, The Belicista, managed to locate the hull of the Martillo. I deceided to restore and rearm the Martillo. All systems are now working and life support got upgraded to the new generation. I officially annonce that the Martillo[TBH] is now back on service and already patrolling Gamma.
*cough then take a cigar puff*
VIVA Los Corsario Empire!!!!

Buenos dias hermanos y hermanas. Before anything went to move, I loaded my Titan with gin and rum. This day was a really bad day for Rheinlanders. We used a technique of surprise. Our forces including some random robotic cruiser gathered near the planet Crete and when ready, people down on the planet were able to see a shiny flash of light on the sky, so powerfull that even the day side was effectively illuminated. This was not caused by anything except our new battleship, the Demon Express. The ship is equipped with specialised technology of jump drive, it is able to transport whole warfleet anywhere several light years around in few seconds. But that is not important... We jumped out of hyperspace near the planet Baden Baden, in the Stuttgart system. I offered my rum and gin to every Corsair around, but the fact that only one who really wanted some was senor Santos really surpised me. I thought Corsair is defined by strong link to alcohol. No idea why only me and and one hermano wanted some. Soon after we jumped there, some futile resistance came to face us, one Omega Defense Flottilla ship, some Hessian with Liberty Rogue gunboat and a Kruger bomber. These were elliminated within few minutes, but they were also accompanied by one Rheinland cruiser which survived the whole slaughter. One cheeky Buro girl followed the first Rheinland casualties the next minute.. Another minutes of battle with slowly comming Rheinland reinforcements were followed by arrival of two Turtles, Rheinland battleships. Thanks to our three Murmillos and me throwing all cruise disruption missiles at them, these were quickly wrecked. The battle caused destruction to some of our ships, but I would consider it a victory, because I expected more from Rheinland. Buenos noches...

Hola Compadres,
Today we went into Delta to take care of a Core problem. We did really well against their first wave, taking out all of their snub cover fast. Even later, in the following waves of Core ships incoming, glorious Brotherhood fighters destroyed everything that was not a gunboat or warship, performing their deadly dance while under ineffective yet spectacular fire of warships. Corsairs suffered quite some losses, The Borderhood just one. He is safe here at Yaren.
Once that was done, and only large ships remained, we retreated to safety.
Drones with the transponder tag <PRIME> assisted us, even though we could not establish communications in the hasty battlefield environment.
I claim two of the Core for myself.
The Brotherhood claims 3 in total.

We reached Alpha as ordered and confirmed multiple battleship contacts as expected. Unfortunately, we managed to destroy just one and severely damage another. I knew we shouldn't attack without CNS-Bahama, but she's still at dry docks and waiting her would take too long. Senor Flippado was delayed as well, as he was looking at his tequila bottle more than at his navigation istruments - and got lost in mine field.
Alpha surprise raid would be total failure if Del.Diablo didn't destroy blue slimy el grande Murdok battleship in brave, but suicide attack. I repeat: K'Hara|Mammetu was destroyed by Del.Diablo (not as recorded by my board recorder), god rest soul of her captain. His "Yalalalalalala" still echoes in my ears. *uploading recordings*
CNS-Cotra managed to provide limited cover and hit just some targets, Santa Muerte blessed his razor aim again. He managed to reach safety via Sigma escape route.
I am sorry to say I got my right cojone hurt again while entering escape pod, caramba. I must visit that Samura medical centre to shrink my cojones again *sigh*. Put some other commander in charge to lead next surprise raid, por favor.
*Pepe nods again and reaches OFF button with his hairy macho hand*
Nothing special. We went there, destroyed two battleships, lost one. Our bomber wing lacked cover after losing CNS-Havana, so we returned in our escape pods too.
Raid report as follows *uploading*
