After receiving a distress call from Taishi Barak, I launched from Kagoshima to see quite the odd sight. A Blood Dragon Cruiser and two escorts engaging in a staring contest with Taishi Barak and our newest recruit. Enclosed is the remains of the Cruiser:
Before which, one of the escorts met an untimely demise, and the other soon followed the cruiser. A good day for Kusari proper.

Topic: Large Fight
Konnichiwa friends, I am here to tell you about the fight for New Tokyo today.
When I launched from Stokes on my new bomber, Plow of Destiny, Taishi Barak called me for assistance against a Privateer in New Tokyo. Eager to rid our home of the scum I moved back through the Taus to New Tokyo. There we searched for the Privateer but had no luck, especially since another Privateer and several of their former GC friends were in the area. We sat back and waited for backup. Soon some KNF, KSP, and Hogosha pilots answered the call, but this was still not enough. We sent for help from the Colonials and Corsairs. Once the Colonials arrived we searched for the scum and found them near the Honshu jump gate.
We all targeted the first gunboat, the Queen's Ransom. Soon enough the ship was downed and we turned to the next target, the Liverpool, another Bretonian Gunboat. This ship was gunned down easily as well. Another capital ship had entered the fight, the CS Destroyer Hoshinokatana. Unfortunately this destroyer had capital armor MK 8 and was tough to destroy, but we took it down with no losses while I and the Taishi barely escaped the blast radius.
After this it turned into a fighter and bomber duel with the Colonials splitting half the enemy group and the Kusarians on the other half. I searched around for bombers to pick off with my Supernova cannon and the powerful gun soon found a hull to crunch in half.
Two more would follow, both in fighters.
There were many more kills made by our allies and friends but my gun cameras never captured them. I missed the rest of the fight due to a temporal anomaly that formed around my ship, forcing me to fall back.
This was an excellent proving ground for the Mamoru bomber and it proved worthy.
Friends today was another great day for the Plow of Destiny.
The day started in Leeds where BAF activity had been reported. I joined up with a KNF cruiser and we took cover near the Nagasaki. The hostiles arrived along with two Mandalorians, there were to many of them for us. So, I challenged them to one on one duels, the first to challenge me was a Mandalorian bomber. We manuvered around each other for some time before I scored a Supernova hit on the Mandalorian's hull.
The next to challenge me was a BAF Commodore by the name of Evyn Hunter. This Bretonian was a difficult target in his Templar, in fact I was afraid I would have to withdraw. That was before my Supernova blew off one of his guns. This gave me renewed confidence, although I was disappointed that it was not the killing shot, I kept in the engagement. In a few minutes I crunched his ship with a load of antimatter.
Now that the enemy forces were weakened the KNF joined in with a cruiser, gunboat, and fighter to defeat the remaining enemies. There were three bombers on the KNF gunboat so I targeted one for my Supernova. The large challenger was an easy target and there was a satisfying crunch as I flew by the wreckage.
Two bombers remained, knowing that the challenger was a less agile ship than the ROC bomber I targeted the other BAF bomber. Soon, this ship too fell to my Supernova.
The last Mandalorian bomber was mopped up by the capital ships. I am happy to report that no friendlies were lost in this fight. After that stressful fight I headed to Stokes for a rest.
Later I launched from my nap to find a Bretonian in system near Stokes. As I was about to fire on him an ion storm swept through and forced us to retreat. When I returned from the ion storm I found a Destroyer near Stokes. I engaged it along with the KNF patrols and destroyed it.
I soon found the Bretonian I was about to fight before the ion storm. However, before we fought, I talked to him and learned that he was in fact former LSF and a Libertonian. Interesting, but he made his choice to join the BAF so I was forced to destroy him. He proved a formidable Templar pilot and after the fight my repair bill was upwards of 1,000,000 credits. However, I was still barely able to defeat him with my Supernova right as my nanobots ran out.
After my repairs were complete I collected some donations from traders passing towards Bretonia. This aggravated more Bretonian gaijin and I was forced into a fight with a BPA Paladin and a BAF Templar. I took heavy hits from the Paladin before deciding to switch my targeting computer to him. I took down his shields and took a potshot at him, hoping my Supernova would hit. It did. Not much was left of his small ship after.
Now I turned my attention to the Templar. His missiles damaged me a bit but I was able to cruise disrupt most of them. Some even ended up damaging his ship. We wheeled around each other for a bit before he too fell to my Supernova.
As I headed home to Kyushu an Outcast supporter carrying slaves passed by and I stopped him and demanding 3,000,000 credits then let him go.
After the long day I had sustained numerous injuries from hull breaches so I will be recovering at Kagoshima. The Plow shall be pulled back from the front lines for a day or two for repairs anyway. Good luck out there brothers, I hope to be back up in the air soon.
Good evening, fellow farmers. Please excuse my absence, as I had entered a spacial anomaly several months ago and only now managed to get out.
At anyrate, I took the new "Mamora" farmer bomber out for a spin in Kyushu. As most of you know, piracy is not my thing. I did however, manage to stop more than one trader and extort several millions worth of credits for our cause! As well as destroy a dishonorable gaijin for not donating to my new crop next season. He paid with a supernova to the cargobay.
I am also moving my new Black Dragon to the Nagasaki for retrofitting, and to battle with the Bretonians.
My life for Kyushu!
"The thirteen saloons that had lined the one street of Seney had not left a trace. The foundations of the Mansion House hotel stuck up above the ground. The stone was chipped and split by the fire. It was all that was left of the town of Seney. Even the surface had been burned off the ground.
Nick looked at the burned-over stretch of hillside, where he had expected to find the scattered houses of the town and then walked down the railroad track to the bridge over the river. The river was there."

Flawless victory today,
At first, Ichiro and I began to chase down an IND in New Tokyo. Unfortunately, the cur escaped to Kepler before we could get there. He was quite crafty, this Libertonian, and even hired a Rhino to disrupt the lane I was taking to chase him. A pity, the Rhino captain did not make it to receive his payment from the Libertonian.
After this, Ichiro and I taught a Kishiro transport why Samura continues to have the upper hand in politics and economics. Unfortunately, he did not like how rough the lesson was. Unfortunately for him as well, he did not want to learn...
After this, we decided it was time to head to Bretonia and educate the Bretonians on fine Bretonian culture. On our way there, we encountered a Junker, who was stripped of the poison he was carrying through less-than-neat means. Ichiro cleaned up the poison, though, so all is well.
After this, we headed to Tau-31. Ichiro had some engine trouble, and we stopped aboard the Yamaguchi to rest for a moment. Upon launching to wait outside and appreciate the new addition to Kusari, I spotted an Outcast Sabre and Destroyer, angry of the loss of their transport. Fortunately for me, though, the Yamaguchi kept the Destroyer at arm's length, and the Savbre was quickly destroyed.
After this, a Falcatta appeared. At this time, Ichiro returned, however, and it did not last long before it had a firing malfunction and destroyed itself.
At the end of the fight lay the Destroyer, which Ichiro and I taught that we didn't need the KNF's assistance in destroying such a hulk of scrap. It's hull is strewn throughout Tau-31 now as testament to the work all of Kusari has done in protecting its new home.
After this long interlude, we entered Seto. Ichiro and I made our way through the Dashin Niobium Field to the other side of the pathetic planet, being taunted by a Mandelorian the entire way. The fool never found us, though, and we managed to make it to the New London trade lane with ease. Upon reaching it, however, we encountered a Bretonian news reporter. I had warned him to stay away from us before, that it would end poorly for him, however, it seems that he could not listen. We took him, our guest, as it were, with less than noble intentions, however, the emperor, with his infinite wisdom, decided that he was of use, and requested the reporter to have an audience with him.
As such, as escorted the reporter to Daishin. There we met a KNF officer, Yoshi Sabayai. Also waiting was a Mandelorian. He was, however, arrogant, and was eliminated.
After a long while of waiting, a Planetform approached us. He offered to negotiate for the reporter. Taishi was less inclined to negotiate, and attempted to move him along his way. He refused, and was, ultimately, destroyed as well. Oddly, he had many weapons on board. We salvaged what we could, and continued with the reporter.
The emperor then requested the reporter be escorted to Kusari. Sabayai-san set about bringing him, while Ichiro and I dealt with a BAF which had come to attempt to "rescue" the reporter. She was dealt with, rather easily, by a passing KNF patrol.
After this, things mainly died down. We encountered a Bretonian Destroyer, the Krasnaya, however, it was too cowardly to approach, and so we held our position. When Sabayai-san returned stating that the emperor had received his guest and was well protected, Ichiro and I returned to the Nagasaki to celebrate.

A flawed victory today, however, a victory none-the-less,
Launching from Planet New Tokyo, where I had hid my bomber, I was hailed by a KSP officer stating that he had gotten reports of a Blood Dragon Battleship, Cruiser, and fighter in Honshu. Unfortunately, only Tomodachi-san of the Black Dragons, the officer himself, and I were available to defeat the menace.
Luckily for us, I was greeting with a happy call from Atika that the bomber squadron they had called in had destroyed the Cruiser as it was moving to the New Tokyo Jump Gate, where I was staring down the Battleship and Fighter. Immediately, the traitors engaged me, and I took to dodging fire while my compatriots moved from New Tokyo to assist me.
When the fight eventually ensued, the KSP officer and I focused on the Battleship, taking it down slowly, while Tomodachi-san focused on the fighter. Unfortunately, Tomodachi-san was downed rather quickly, and the fighter took to attempting to stay on my tail. A mistake on his part. When I turned my attention to him, he learned what a true warrior of Kusari is, and tasted what pain he had wrought to Tomodachi-san.
After this, I returned to helping the KSP officer down the foolish battleship. He learned his lesson as well, the battle ending with him running back to his hole, with his tail between his legs. This ship's captain will not live the night, facing defeat to two lowly pilots, or he will live his life in disgrace. The traitor deserves nothing less.

No one listens to anyone with authority about the Hayate Field. I asked the gaijin nicely to stay out, and look at the mess that it has made. First, a smuggler was destroyed, this man we gave a chance, but he did not cooperate.
Next, three Hackers ambush me. Their remains are for all to see, just as they see Kagoshima and our men surrounding them. Of course, the Gunship with the help of the KNF, however, it was I who got the torp hit.
After this, I was hit by an ion storm, and I could not assist the KNF against the Outcast menace. I can only pray for their safety.

Konnichiwa,
Today was a good day. I first caught a Junker Slave Liner hauling Iridium towards Bretonia. If it was going there, I do not know, but I taught him not to enter Kusari well enough. Teaches him to fire on me.
I then went to Shikoku, and met another Junker. He sat, and stared at me while I demanded he dropped his cargo. I shot him, he ran, and then I killed him as well.
After this, I moved onto the three freelancers in the area. They asked me to spare them, to talk. I obliged. They left the Hayate Field and agreed to never return. A good thing for them, I was ready to teach all of them what it was to trespass.
After this, I was contacted by a Samura shipper by the name of Iskandar.Takashi, who I was in contact with before, however, I lost contact with during my fights. He was being dishonored by a Liberty Navy officer in New Tokyo. This seemed odd to me, Liberty Navy in New Tokyo. When the samurai who was on patrol left, I met the man, and we talked. He threatened me with a trio of Liberty Navy capital ships. I told him that I was not worth a war, however, taught him that I was worth much more than his skills.

Konnichiwa again,
Today, I left Daisin to come back to Kyushu. I had enough of the Bretonians, but the smugglers would not let me leave. I battled my way out of Seto, however, they held me backs till, carrying everything from Niobium to Quantum Multiplexors. Eventually, one of the BAF came to attempt to silence me. He fought with honor, and did not fear to face me, as his friends did. I barely bested him, but as I told him, the honor of my death would not be his.
After this, I left for Kusari, not stopping for anyone. I came to a Zoner, standing, though, in Tau-29. He stood still, and maintained silence when I ordered him to drop his cargo. He payed for his ignorance and stupidity.
