Flottekapita Meisnerr we appreciate the assistance and care being given to our old warhorse at this time. Our reactor has to be completely changed and several decks suffered breaches from supernova hits. The crew, however, is doing well and is working around the clock. She should be up soon. We took light casualties in our fight because our close proximity to Vogtland.

For Rheinland!

Gutten tag, komrades!

The day started ordinary. I was reading brief data and reports from recent fights - the usual thingen. Browsed through some news logs too.

I must say I am very sorry for Brigadier Kommander's family and his siblings, it schocked us all. Little could be done to save him. We will all live by his memory. He was a great man.

Troublesome news. The Twilight brigade has taken fatal blow defending Ronneburg. I've known Brigadier Kommander myself. Often we used to work and chat together, when I took charge of Omega's millitary campaign 8 months ago.

Black Wolfens did a good job. So good, that Daumann are afraid to admit the very fact of the attacken! Ha! All these missions logs inspired me on taking care of some business assigned to Hessian Rekrut's. I launched my Odin today on a patrol.


And yet I am gladd to sit by reporting desk again. Loading mission daten right now.

1412. Launchen from Freital I exited the fragment, heading to Omega 7 system. I did take my time, there was no hurry. Arriving to Omega 7 I followed Zeta 5 patrol further into the nebula. They were heading on an assault against mining machinery, I've been told.
1429. It was pleasant to hear Miss Olsen's voice on mission commision frequency again. She informed me that a lone mildly protected trading vessel is heading my way.
1438. I was quick to intercept Freistadt-->Stuttgart lane. The vessel appeared on my scanners, turns out he was a Zoner. Still, being a fair man and a true Zoner that he is, he agreed to donate 2,000,000 Sirius credits willingly.

zoner sighted

payment received

Patrol went well and I've returned to Freital.

I was sitting in the bar when Vogtland recived some messages from a LWB pilot called Johann Steinlaufer. He was in New Berlin and he was fighting with the Rheinland Military, exactly Freidrich Pippart, Johann Brunhild and Malexa Malte. I jumped into my Falcata and launched from Vogtland. As I arrived Walter Kurpinski arrived too. Johann had to escape because his ship took some serious damages. So I stayed alone with the four blood thirsty Military pilots. I was thinking on retreat when my mine killed Pippart. It gave me power to continue and our pilot Leutnant Wulf Sternhammer offered help, but he was in Frankfurt. I continued the fight and my cruise disoprutor successfully blow up a mine which one blow up Malexa' ship.

Wulf arrived and his mine immediately blow up Johann ship (unfortunately my black box didn't take a picture of that). Only Walter was there against 2 of us and Norman Ludewig offered help. We contunied the fight until Norman arrived but I only could watch it because I lost my guns. Walter seemed a diffucult target because he was fighting with Wulf who was in a Loki. Meanwhile Norman arrived and joined to the fight but Waler blowed up his ship. His escaped pod brought back to Vogtland. Unfortunately RNC_Weser, a cruiser arrived. My ship took some serious damages as Johann' ship so we tried to destroy Walter, meanwhile a wild came there which Weser destroyed.

Military did something which helped on us and I didn't want to continue the fight, we retreaded but Walter and Weser followed us which showed again the Military soilders blood thirst...

I launched from Vogtland since I had been asked by Vogtland control center to investigate a contact in the system. I found a Orca Gunboat in Pirna and she was carrying Bundschuh pilots and equipment. I ordered the captain of BHK~Adaniv to drop the pilots but in a typical defiance he kept his comms silent. He left me no alternative but to engage him with predictable results. I wonder when do they learn that it's more beneficial to open the comms and talk.






After I had delivered the pilots safely to Vogtland to wait for transportation to the Bruchshal I flew to Freital and took command of the Raeuber for supply missions. I took a load of Diamonds to Yanagi. While I was sipping a beer before taking the return trip I was approached by an Outcast with an urgent mission. I'd be well compensated for the effort. He wanted me to take a full load of Engine Components to Malta to help them out in our common fight against the Corsairs. After briefly thinking about the risks and such I decided to make the run.

He uploaded the coordinates of way points and jump holes through Sigma-19 and Omicron Beta in Raeuber's nav map. I took the shipment without any interference and was well received at Malta.





I took Raeuber back to Kreuzberg after the delivery.

I loaded up Engine Components and flew to our allies in the Western parts of the Sirius; Mollys. There had been some talk that they need them badly and were willing to pay a good price for them. That turned out to be exactly the case as one unit fetched a very good price of 1500 credits.



This move helped gain the friendly reputation status with our Molly friends. From Arranmore I loaded up Synthetic Marijuana to be taken to those hippies of Sirius; Zoners. And sure enough I was greeted at Gran Canaria with esoteric and happy faces when they heard that the newest shipment of their chemical bliss had arrived. Spirits were not by least because of sunny day and a festive mood that had gripped the planet. I was smiling too; it made a nice addition to our war coffers too...



From Gran Canaria I took a shipment of Deuterium to Freital as we badly need it there. I recommend making this route once in a while. It gives a nice boost to our economy. The most dangerous part of the journey is crossing the Omega-5 system where Corsairs can have a heavy presence. All the way-points have been loaded up in Raeuber's nav computer.

Good day ladies and gentlemen, i will be short. I have great news indeed. During standard patrol i encountered an Rheinland military pilot which started to shoot at me without warning, but battle was short and soon after pilot was destroyed by the fire of my guns. This is only one of many victories we will win against our enemies. Proud to be reporting, Rekrut Viktor out.

Dear friends... Im back.

I was prisoned at prison station Mitchel by Liberty police. Heh irony. Rheinlanders never got me... well funny. Do you remember protest march in Liberty which was masacred by Liberty navy? There they captured me, lucky Im alive. Well Mitchel is realy poor prison and escape was easier than I was thought.

I was almost crying when I saw my Thor agains... it was like nightmare. Everything rusty and dusty. All weapons was only scrap but we have good friends in ROS and they gaved me everything new and shiny.... you know debies, supernova hehe all stuff what I love.

My first testing taxing in New Berlin was fiasco. In funier "bangbang" part when I was testing my new Inferno on foolish trader some hyperactive bit*... automatic censorship activated...* .... *... automatic censsorship deactivated... * bountyhunter and mercanery (?) in gunboats kicked my buutt. Thanks god Im alive hehe.

After few minuts after jump I was informed about distress call from unnamed smugler. My answer was quick but corsair was faster than me and fled from system. After that I was invited into patrol squad of our best friend in arms - Outcasts. I wasnt only hessian in squad. 2 hessian cruisers namely-End- and Shiller was great partneners in fight too. Togeather with an Outcast cruiser Faith and outcast bomber weedalot our squad destroyed 1 BH cruiser, forced to flee another one. Fleeing BH gunboat was only chery on cake after that. Few hours later I was invited again by another outcast cruiser to help him patrol area... situation in Rheinland was quiet than I agreed. Only few minutes later I was attacekd by another BH cruiser... togeather with an outcast captain and his crew was his destruction easy and fun.

The Varyag is finally out of dry-docking after repairs. The hull was badly damaged and much of the outer plating was replaced. I made contact with a local trader and was able to procure some new armor. The material appears to be Order made and has the "8" designation. Cost of the plating was covered almost entirely by voluntary donations from a few traders.

The only thing we have to report from our patrol last night was a pair of Wilde that were assaulting the New Berlin system fled as we announced our intentions, seems the Hessian name precedes us.

Good to see you back Shimada, we are looking forward to seeing you in space once again.
