Greetings, gentlemen of the High Command.
As I was about to write this report, I actually noticed some evidence takes I made a week ago and actually missed to write a report on them. I apologize for this mistake and will include them within this report now.
Patrol report May 23rd, 822 A.S
Undocking from Fort Severn, I made my way to patrol through the Systems. Entering New York, I moved to West Point, where I met Lieutenant Commander Sader. Joining up in a task force with him, I took the lane to Planet Manhattan, and he took the way to Norfolk.
On his way on the lane he noticed a Rogue Bomber named "Double.Red.Head". I made my way back to West Point, while Lieutenant Commander Sader was already chasing after the Rogue towards Badlands.
I managed to reach them Lieutenant Commander Sader in time close to Buffalo Station. He told me to take care of the Rogue, while he remained out of the combat, as support, just in case. I engaged the Rogue Bomber and took some damage, but I managed to destroy Double.Red.Head, by triggering a mine and his own nova torpedo with a cruise distruptor missle, while he tried to dock at the Buffalo station. I took his escape pod into my cargo hold and set him down on Battleship Missouri.
Restocked ammunition and nanos after that, we continued our patrol, without further incidents. Ending my patrol, I returned to Fort Severn.
Undocking form Fort Severn, I made my way to patrol through the Systems. Entering Colorado, I noticed a Rogue Bomber named "LR-Born.To.Be.Mild". I was chasing after him and receiving a message by a member of the Kusari Police that a whole group of Rogues actually caused trouble in Shikoku. The Rogue LR-Born.To.Be.Mild cut his engines in the Copperton Asteroid Field, where he engaged me. I took some damage but I managed to shoot him down and prevent him to support the other Rogues in Shikoku. Taking his escape pod into my cargo hold, I moved to Battleship Missouri and set him down there, then I got my ship repaired and equipment restocked.
Once repairs and restocking were done, I undocked and moved to Planet Manhattan where I noticed a pirate named "Martin.Xavier" close to Rochester base. He resisted any attempt to arrest him and even began to fire at me. I returned to fire and engaged him, taking some damage but destroyed his ship, before I took his escape pod into my cargo hold.
After that, got my ship repaired and equipment restocked, before I joined in a taskforce with Lieutenant Commander Sader and Commodore Webb. There were no further indicents and I returned to Fort Severn later.
When I undocked from Fort Severn, I received a call by Lieutenant Commander Sader, to move to New York as soon as possible. I joined up in a taskforce with him, Admiral Baker, the [LN]-LNS-Lansing and Navy pilot Iro.Spot. Arriving in New York, I was told to move to Fort Bush - Manhattan lane. I made my way to said location and noticed our troops and two hostile capital ships. An Outcast Gunboat named "Lick.A.Brick" and Rogue Scylla Destroyer named "California.Blue". I noticed a dis-function on my radar system, marking allied vessels as hostile, likely because of the taken damage. It was repaired later that day.
We engaged said hostile vessels, focusing on one by one. Together we managed to inflict heavy damage on both ships, while I did the last shot on Lick.A.Brick, Lieutenant Commander Sader destroyed California.Blue. Their escape pods have been taken into cargo hold and set down on Planet Manhattan, later.
We moved to Planet Manhattan, in order to repair our ships then, though we noticed an Outcast Dreadnought named "Gold.Miner" in the Detroid Derby Field. Engaging the capital ship together, it didn't last long. His escape pod has been taken into cargo hold and set down on Planet Manhattan. I got my ship repaired and equipment restocked at Norfolk.
When my ship was repaired and ready for action, I undocked and immediately noticed a Junker named .:J:.PickupTruck piloting a Pirate Train Transport. I ordered him to cut his engines, and he cooperated without any incidents. Explaining him the situation, he was willing to pay the fine of 1 million Sirius Credits. I escorted him to Puerto Rico jumphole and left him with a warning. After that, I returned to New York and moved to Fort Bush.
Arriving at Fort Bush, I received a call by a trader, that she was about to be pirated by two pirates. I joined in a taskforce with an LPI-Officer, and we moved to Fort Bush - Manhattan lane, were we met said trader and the two pirates named "The.Worst.Nightmare" and "BoomV".
The trader managed to escape without any damage, while we engaged the two pirates. Unfortunately the LPI-Officer was shot down soon, leaving me alone against two, draning my nanos and shield batteries, so I retreated to Planet Manhattan. Chasing after me, they inflicted more damage on my ship. Boom V moved away, while The.Worst.Nightmare stayed.
Being able to fight him one on one, I turned and re-engaged him. It was close but I managed to do that much damage that he was finally shot down by the regular Navy Patrol. His escape pod has been taken into my cargo hold. I returned to Planet Manhattan and got my ship repaired along and equipment restocked.
Undocking from Planet Manhattan I noticed BoomV shooting some regular Navy pilots, so I moved in to stop him. The fight was pretty close, since the pirate seemed to actually have disguised his true potential before, making me believe he was an easy target.
I took heavy damage during the fight, and so did he. Thanks to LNS|SantaFe, further damage on my ship could be prevented, when the captain ordered to fire at BoomV, destroying him in one shot. His escape pod has been taken into LNS|SantaFe's cargo hold.
I got my ship repaired and equipment restocked at Manhattan, then I returned to Fort Severn to end my patrol for this day.
Due to the high level of damage inflicted to my ship, no evidence of the pirate's destruction could be taken.
From:Jeffery Walker To:5th Fleet HC Subject:Ready for dutyRecruit Jeffery Walker reporting! Today at 16:23 SMT I arrived to the battleship Ottawa in the Ontario system to get uniform and the access codes. When I was taken to a hangar I saw a VHF named "Guardian", an advanced version of the Defender, moved onwards from a successful framework to deliver improved performance on the modern battlefield. Its flexibility and resilience made it the prime candidate for front-line Navy squadrons. The best VHF Navy can offer it's pilots. After reading the documentation and study of the spacecraft systems, I commited 10 combat missions in the simulator before being assigned to patrol the surrounding area of the battleship. After we defended transport convoy from Lane Hacker attack and nearest statellite from Junkers salvagery, I was sent to patrol the Cortez->California jumpgates. In 3 hours scanners have detected a big sized vessel, running circles in a sector near our location. We have been sent to investigate this oject. When we came closer to the scanner range - we saw an AI cruiser, slowly moving aroud imaginery spot. Scanners showed nothing but a Cruiser in 20k radius. Judging by it's behavior, there was a malfunction inside the vessel.[Patrol protocol]

Greetings, gentlemen of the High Command.
When I started my patrol four days ago, I undocked from Fort Severn and moved to New York. I received a call by Commodore Webb commanding the 5th|LNS-Watcher and joined him looking for the Outcast Gunboat "Lick.A.Brick" and Rogue Scylla "California.Blue". We found them at Planet Manhattan-Fort Bush lane. Additionally Liberty Carrier -Blue_Aurora- moved in to assist us.
Rff8000esisting against our orders and our attempts to arrest these both criminals, they began to initiate cruise speed. So we engaged them. -Blue_Aurora- kept the California.Blue busy, while Commodore Webb and me focused fire on Lick.A.Brick who didn't last long. His escape pod was taken into my cargo hold. We moved to California.Blue then, who managed to get a safe distance from -Blue_Aurora- and initiated cloak device, hiding from us, escaping with heavy damage. I docked at Norfolk and got my ship repaired and equipment restocked then.
When I undocked, I received a message by LSF-Agent Alpha.1, telling me about the pirate Eric.Theodore.Cartman hogging the jumpgate in Colorado. I joined into a taskforce with Alpha.1 and a Freelancer named Pay.Day, moving to Colorado. I arrived there first and was already engaged by Eric.Theodore.Cartman. I took some medium damage, staying alive, until reinforcements would show up. When Alpha.1 and Pay.Day arrived, they took care of the situation, finishing Eric.Theodore.Cartman, who was finally shot down by Alpha.1 and his escape pod was taken into the LSF-Agent's cargo hold. I returned to Norfolk for repairs and restocking after that.
Undocking from Norfolk Shipyard, I received a message by -JohnyWalker-, telling me about the pirate Dan.Harper harassing civilians Pennsylvania. LSF-Agent Alpha.1 and me moved there to check the situation, where we found Dan.Harper chasing after -Johny.Walker-, firing at him. In order to save the civilian, we decided to engage Dan.Harper together, so he would try to escape. With this, the pirate moved to New York jumpgate, with heavy damage. Chasing after him, he found his end at Norfolk Shipyard, shot down by a regular Navy patrol. His escape pod was taken into my cargo hold and I got my ship repaired and equipment restocked at Norfolk.
Not even a minute later I received a call by -JohnyWalker- again. This time it was a nomad vessel called "the_hunter", harassing the civilians in Pennsylvania. I moved to Pennsylvania, finding that Nomad in the Helium cloud behind Erie, shooting at a miner. I engaged the_hunter and shot it down within seconds, saving the civilian. After that, I returned to Fort Severn, going off duty.
Good day to the High Command again. As always this will show the report for the last few days of my activity.
Starting of with welcoming our newest recruit Amanda Rainer and showing her how our fleet works, I along with Lt.Cmdr. Sader and recruit Jeffery Walker stated a patrol at Manhattan and encountering a rouge named Delightfully.Angry. The rouge was dealt with easily but recruit Jeffery Walker was put down. We managed to recover his life pod and put him on manhattan.
After that we moved on to Texas where Unioners and Rouges were cooperating in piracy. Amanda Reiner, John Sader, myself and other [LN] pilots moved to their location and engaged them. I witnessed 1 destruction before I was destroyed along with the 2nd one.
That ends my patrolling report. Commodore Mark Webb gave me his Gun Boat LNS-Lynx now named LNS-Thor so I moved it form Norfolk to my work station at Yukon.
This came to my mind now. There are some unused offices on Yukon but the ship captain wont let me use them without proper Authentication from my Admiral. If you would do me this favor because my cargo holds are full of everything I don't need on my ship.
INCOMING TRANSMISSION
5th|Iro Spot reporting in with no luck at all. I did catch a Transport with Slaves and Cardamine but nothing I could do about it for I was alone and the Transport headed to rheinland.
Greetings to the High Command. This shows a report for my past few patrols
Starting of with a distress call from =LSF=Razor in Alberta where he needed gunboat help. It was a great chance to test how the ship works. I got to Yukon and huped in my LNS-Thor heading to Alberta as soon as I was able. There I saw =LSF=Razor Asking the rouge about someone but the rouge refused to talk and was shooting at navy forces. PLR:Thunder.Struck was there. =LSF=Razor told me to wait for the engagement order with chances that the rouge might talk. After some time the rogue refused to talk an I had permission to destroy the vessel so he can tractor the escape pod.
After that I was called to Minnesota to assist our forces against an Outcast destroyer OC-Shilzhak. He agreed to leave the system as soon as [LN]-Franklin.Burnet, Commander John Armada and I found him.
Today, Commodore Webb, =LSF=Predator.84 and I encountered silent SCRA vessels as they started engaging us on sight. Luckily they were destroyed completely without taking casualties on our side.
At the end of my patrol we engaged a rogue named Miner's. His vessel and my bomber were destroyed in a short time. I managed to get away without any injuries and he managed to destroy [LN]-Frank,Burnet along with himself.
Starting off with some signals of an unknown pirate in Pennsylvania which was not found on any scanners. While I was there I scanned any ships that were passing by me.
After Pennsylvania we had a crazy encounter with a Royal Navy cruiser transmitting a name GLS-Sacha.Trudeau. In that encounter I used my gunboat LNS-Thor to destroy that thing. It was destroyed without any problems.
After I returned to NY I encountered an Universal vessel carrying 2 ID's. He was ordered to land on WP and remove one from his ship. After that he was scanned properly and was cleared to move on.
Moving on to Manhattan Lt.Cmdr. Sader and I encountered 2 AFC light fighters under influence. They were carrying illegal cargo and were engaged shortly where Lt.Cmdr. Sader ignored the stand down order from Commodore Mark Webb. After he engaged I received the engagement order and the fight continued to the California jump gate. I managed to take down one of them but the AFC leader escaped.
The AFC are now put as KoS (KILL ON SIGHT) by the orders of the High Command.
After that I encountered a freelancer that obviously wanted trouble so he got a big unit of the navy forces on his tail. He was hit by a GB razor and was destroyed instantly.
Before I docked I saw the 1st fleet Rachel Baker off duty so I scanned her just in case of anything strange. I apolgised to her for taking it off her free time.
Communication channel opened... Encryption:Medium Origin: 5th Fleet HQ | Juneau Shipyard ID: Admiral Jack O'Neill Subject: R&D assignment
I will be very straight forward and short about this one. Yesterday i decided to go on a patroll. I've met Admiral Sius from the 1st fleet and our newest recruit Amanda Rainer at West Point. After short talk somekind of gas was vented into the cockpit of my guardian and i lost my conciousness. When i woke up i found Admiral Sius inside my ship fighting with somekind of a droid. Unfortunatly the Admiral had no weapon and the droid gave some nasty hits. When i finally realized whats going on i shot down the droid. After this Admiral Sius returned to his ship and we came back here to Juneau shipyard. Though the droid reminds me for a piece of scrap rather then a machine i want you to examine the droid. It seems that iam in the way for someone and i want to know why and the identity of this person, or the droid was malfunctioning. One way or another i need answers.
I have analyzed the droid you brought on Juneau. On the first sight, with those holes in it, it looks like an Mk-47. I need to do some programming and memory check before I know what, or rather who are we dealing with. It has a transmitter and a camera inside it, meaning someone was watching the droid from afar. Its construction was a bit upgraded on armor for the reason of close combat. That is the reason of admiral taking some nasty hits. As for the gas, the droid had a little gas capsule that he put in the vent of your ship. I can show you more when you come to the labs on the station. The droid might be of use to us later after I remove things that were used to control it and of course I will use them to find our bad guy. That is all for now.
I took some of my free time from the investigation to change the guns on my bomber. And I was lucky because I got distress signals from California-Magellan jump gate where the GRN invasion fleet was. I went there immediately knowing I would not be there alone. [HF] Bombers and Fighters and a Rogue The.Red.Canon. Having one goal in mind we chose to ignore each other and engaged the royal navy with full fire power. After we went to Magellan to chase them down Liberty Forces joined us there and we put them down one by one with ease. After the whole fight the [HF] fully engaged us and barely managed to put me down before I managed to escape to Freeport 4.
As for my investigation.
I know the man that makes these droids but many parts are not the original design of his. That transmitter I mentioned is actually a beacon of some kind. I was forced to destroy it in case it was sending the location to someone. I advise that the 5th fleet is cautious from now on because I still don't know who exactly is targeted here. As for the man who builds this things, he lives in the edge worlds so its really hard to get to him. If I get any info on him or rather find him I will notify you as soon as possible.
