I was following Federal Polizei aktivity into Dresden. Ion storm caused a setback, however. What I found was Bounty Hunter Gunboat instead.


I switfly retreated, but then the Bounty Hunter kontakted me, saying he had 6 Hessian in his cargo hold he would like to negotiate for. I refused to meet him by Altenburg, but he refused to come to Kreuzberg as well. Finally I accepted the ultimatum and came in the vicinity of Bradenburg Border Station. I was not alone, though. Herr Nokom and pilot of Messerschmidt accompanied me. The negotiations went fine and I paid 120,000 credits for all six Hessians on board. I am happen to return der komrades.



I and Geert von Nokom returned to Dresden then. I attempted to kontakt Herr Ernst who pursued a trader in Omega 11 system, but we lost the signal. Receiving no response and under impression that Ernst may have been in danger the two of us proceeded to Omega 11.

Ernst was heard loud and klear as we made a jump to Omega 11 system. Fortunately, he was handling himself and the trader well.

Leaving Ernst to deal with the tresspasser on his own we intercepted der miner vessel named Bevel Lemelisf. The Captain claimed he was about to enter a kontrakt with Ageira. We managed to persuade Bevel to work for us instead.


Bullying miners with a little bit of show of force is always effective. He was in open space in Omega 11, though. It's not like he had much of a choice, but to come with us.


A disobedient trader was intercepted by Messerschmidt near Vogtland as well. The remaining 1200 units of Neon were given to our new friend - Bevel Lemefisf. He was humbled. May all know that Hessians are helpful allies, but merciless to those who refuse to see from our point of view. The infidel was destroyed and Bevel received his share. Needless to say, he appreciated the cargo, but did not ask too many questions, so humbled he was.


Bevel will have no way out, but to work for us. He has already loaded his first load of Blood Diamonds onto the Miner. Lend all aid you kan to this miner as he has joined ze revolutionen, whether he knowz it or not.

Auf wiedersehen, komrades.

It was a early morning and I was already woken up to deal with RFP threat in Omega-7 that was hindering our plans with corrupted miners in nebulae. As I came to spot, police pilot already started to collect our fallen comrades, neglecting my warning to release them and leave the system. Fighting didnt last long as his tactic was utterly futile - his mines were exploding as soon as he released them, triggered by my disrupting missiles, resulting in a nice multiple explosion..



taking a rest at nearest bar, at Freital, I undocked again only to found from Major Schwarz that trader escaped into O-11. I immediately intercepted him. Carrying counterfeit software I told him I will let him go if he sell them at our base Freital. As we approached Solarius, another ind.trader carrying 3500diamonds bought from Daumann base, at first started running, only to return to help fellow trader in scaring off lone hessian fighter. They both rejected my rational proposals for mild tax and trading on Freital, started talking about free trade in omegas and as usual being ignorant of our hard struggle with corrupt minning corporations. They changed their minds when comrades Schwartz, Nokom and bomber Messerschmidt came on their scanners, helping miner Bevel. Futile plans to escape or destroy me were dropped and their trade with Daumann taxed 2mil each.






I guess sometimes talking about benefits of trading with our cause must be shown with a 'big stick'...


Leaving traders, I continued with my comrades toward Dresden to help enlist yet another recruit for our cause.. Heads up Hessians, see you in space!

I was cuddling a girl in Vogtland when the blasted beeper had to go off. I was needed. Major Lenz was being confronted by 2 Wraiths in Stuttgart. Ernst Neurath and I was given orders to get there to help him. But alas, we came a half a minute too late. Lenz experienced the mine malfunction right before our eyes and had to be picked up.

Ernst and I were in a fine mess by that time since RM reinforcements kept coming. 4 Wraiths against out 2 Odins. Zum Gluck they were one of the newer recruits and that factor prolonged the fight. We were losing, but at that moment RM high command issued a retreat to defend the borders of Vaterland. I'd never thought I'd be thankful for those invaders, but this time I have to give credit where the credit is due.

After repairs in Vogtland the flight control reported 2 unknown contacts and dispatched me to investigate. The contacts were lost but Freital picked them up later and jumped to Omega-11.

Too bad someone always has to get hurt. Why they don't just like to listen? I found 2 Freelancers un-docking from Solaris carrying Food and Water for the refugees. Aber nein! I'd had been happy to wave and wish them a good journey if that had been the case indeed. They had to be carrying diamonds. I tried to convince them to drop them for their own good, but only got static in return. The rest of the story went along too familiar route ending one picking up his partner in pod and flying away as fast as the engine would carry them.

Comm ID: Hauptmann Johannes Farb in emergency command of Transport Raeuber
Location: Freital

A Rogue shuttle took me to take an emergency command of the Transport [RHA]RHT-Raeuber after the captain had been drinking and gotten into a fist fight with his Executive Officer. Der Dumpkopf! The captain is in coma and his ex XO is custody of the ship's weapons officer awaiting for trial. For their sake I hope Kapitan Meissner is in good mood when he reads this report. I doubt he will be.

I took command of Raueber and set course from Cortez to home via California, Texas, Hudson, Bering, Hamburg, Frankfurt, Dresden to finally making a delivery to Freital. Those Counterfeit Software sure comes handy there. I stopped at Dawson in Hudson to strengthen our ties with the Rogues and sent the pilot of the shuttle a case of brandy for taking me to Raeuber.



Next stop at Pacifica in Bering was crucial. There I was able to upload Raeuber's special codes to Unioner's network so that they do know now that Raeuber is an allied ship. No need to introduce ourselves to Unioners anymore since they know a friend when they see us now. I also reminded them of our roots and equipped the Raeuber with a mining laser Mk 2. Not that The Army needs really introduce themselves really, but better to be safe than sorry.

Hopping from Bering to Hamburg and to Frankfurt was kein Problem. But as I emerged from the jump I got a tail in form of Alpha, a military IDed Bergelmir bomber. Ich was in Trouble. The Transport level 1 turrets were not going to get me out of the hot gases and having the hold full of essential cargo I decided to talk. You can imagine my surprise when the pilots starts talking about 'pen' and me wanting to buy it or else... Well, see for yourself. I've included the communique here.



And my eyebrows climbed even higher when I realised that this pilot had no clue what-so-ever who he had stumbled upon. All he did see was a Smuggler and not the name painted on the hull. I even thanked him for the deal we had struck. No point in bashing in the glass house of ignorance he had built up for himself.

Military truly must be scraping the bottom of the barrel by now with conscripts like this yahoo. The war with Liberty surely seem to put a strain on their resources. I wonder if we need to step up after all and fight those invaders with more vengeance.

The rest of the long journey went without problems. And I sighed of relief when Freital came up on the bridge view. At Freital I places an order for the Raeuber to be fitted with Transport level 4 turrets.

It was to be a quiet patrol between Dresden and Omega-54.. Usual lethargy kicked in with autopilot turned on, only to be replaced with urgent distress call from comrade Adolph Hessler. He just got report from Vogtland that a lone RM battleship was seeing in Dresden, location unknown. Rheinwehr seeked punishment for such arrogance surely, so we hastily changed our ships to more potent Thor and Falcata.
Hessler was to search from one direction while I was accompanied with rekrut Hans Banditen in a fighter.
Small decoy attack on Altenburg Battleship, was staged, inflicting minor damage, so RM could have less fighter support in and around Daumann Leipzig station.





It worked - few moments later unknown battleship, indentified as RNB|-Megavolt, was discovered around Leipzig station, getting his supplies, only with Leipzig station defenses supporting it. Although somewhat lacking in firepower, our tide has turned as well-known Coalition captain Jan Richthofen joined us in our fight, in Typhoon destroyer under his command.







Rheinwehr battleship was no match for concentrated fire from guns of Revolution, so it tried to run toward nearest jumphole, Omega-15. We tried to disable its engines since immobile battleship in nebula would mean sure defeat. Alas, battleship sturdy armorplates holded long enough for him to escape through jh toward Schwerin battleship.

RNB|-Megavolt luck soon run out when in a heat of fight, successful anti-matter bombardment landed right into his engines, making bright explosion seen even at Bornholm Depot.








Seeing that all is lost, Rheinwehr captain requested assistance from Schwerin and docked right before final blows can be delivered.

Our celebration was short lived as we picked up some RM fighter patrol on our way back to Vogtland, possibly one of those responding to false attack on Altenburg. Our ambush spot was placed in Daumann Lavafeld, near jh O-11. Walking right into our trap, quick engagement was followed with our hessian battle cries and blasting all guns open, hoping to get advantage.



Rheinwehr patrol consisted of one SHF Mjolnir, one Wraith and one mercenary fighter. Mjolnir SHF was the first to go down, not able to cope with agile Odins in heated lavafeld.



Next downed fighter was the leader of Rheinwehr patrol, blasting from his burning wreck after successful razor shot landed on his flank





With comrade Hessler blasting the remains of this wretched patrol, Altenburg was busy regrouping it strength and rescuing escape pods. Not one casualty was sustained during whole patrol and 3 RM fighters were shot down and one battleship disabled. Clear messagge was sent to Rheinwehr that theyre not welcome in Dresden. Patrol successfully ended in Vogtland bar, where stories of Rheinwehr petty resistance were told with laughter...

Very good work Leutnant Neurath. Pass my congratulations to your wingmates as well. Truly the revolution will go on course and succeed with men like you dedicated to our cause. The pilots you shot down were Polizei, not Rheinwehr ships. The Military will want to have revenge on those cops, so watch your pack. A great victory nonetheless!

Another Great Two Victory In Omega 5!

The first one is about Hauptmann Schnitt and Me. We found a 'sair on his way back to home. We stopped him but instead of talking he started fight. Well we destroyed his ship but more and more came and our ships got damaged badly so we escaped. The guncam will tell you everything.

Killed Pilots

----

The other victory was won in Omega 5 again, but this one was more heroic.

Particpants:
- Major Varyag
- Major Gunther Hoerst later on Jeschke
- Major Ferdinand Gryneus later on Von Rhoe
- Hauptmann Herman Schnitt
- Leutnant Crazy Horse
- Leutnant Eric Adler
- Leutnant Harald Langburg
- Leutnant Ernst Neurath
- Leutnant Dennis Koppe
- Rekrut Adolph Hessler

Well how could I start it....We won, again, yes.

The fight was in Hammen Hole. The first battle was amazing, Varyag destroyed almost 3 Cruisers before the crews had to eject, but then our small force destroyed another two cruisers.

A bit later Exotcismo arrived, a huge Osiris. Gunter and Me flew back to take out the other Cruisers and we succesfully destroyed the Battleship without any of the cruisers would have blown up.

Exorcismo' wreck

Of course a huge fighter support arrived, but our pilots didn't let them to get near to Jeschke or Rohe, nor. Our guys made a really good job and they killed all of the figthers without losing anyone.

Rohe' guncam

Our Loss: - Varyag

Their Loss:
- 5 Cruisers
- 1 Battleship
- Numerous fighter and bomber pilots

For the Revolution!

Well, comrades, I might have been chained to my desk for a while now along with the rest of the general staff, but that didn't seem to stop you from carrying our cause through battle after battle on both our fronts, as well as the home front as well. While the Rheinland media is still reluctant to report on our victories too often, both Liberty and Military navalmen quake in their boots at the mention of our army. You continue to stop the raging Corsair hordes dead in their tracks in systems that they could once claim as theirs. There is no questioning it, we are well on our way to our final victory, at the very forefront of the entire Rheinland revolutionary movement. There is no man in here that will not be crucial to the accomplishment of our goals.

Unfortunately, victories can be expensive. We have suffered many losses, and many pilots no longer fly at our side. But for each one of us who falls, more of our brothers take his place always ready to fight the good fight. Looking at the performance records I can see a new cadre of young, promising officers forming. Now is the time to reward these officers with the appropriate rank.

Below is the list of promotions, effective immediately:

• Rekrut Hessler to Leutnant
  
• Rekrut Banditen to Leutnant
  
• Rekrut Stieder to Leutnant
  
• Leutnant Langburg to Oberleutnant
  

Let this be a push for you to continue your valiant efforts for the cause. This means all of you, as with personal sacrifice comes sufficient reward!

On a slightly different note: I wish to congratulate the pilots spearheading the latest assault on that Corsair hellhole in Omega-5 for recovering some astounding equipment from that Corsair battleship they managed to cripple in the Hammen. The quartermaster has been ecstatic the entire day. Not only that, but you managed to annihilate an entire Corsair fleet complete with escorts using a force quarter that large. A truly commendable effort, one that will no doubt grace the history books soon enough.

Stand proud, Hessians.

Regards,
Meisnerr
