~ Incoming Transmission from King's Cross Station, New London System (78.12.48.218.87.144.10.169)~
~ Date: 10. July 819 AS ~
Convoy Participants:
BES Hobson, Percheron, Employee Mark Wolfe
BES Wilberforce, Percheron, Trainee Hans Arthur Liljefors
BES Redgrave, Percheron, Trainee Glenn O'Farrell
Convoy Information:
"The three of use purchased from Emily Norwood and Dink Smallwood from BMM a load of fine Cambridge Berylium Ore which was freshly mined before our eyes. Following this we headed to Dortmund Station in New Berlin where we sold the ore before heading to Oder Shipyard to acquire Engine components for the engineers at Southampton Shipyard."
Convoy Incidents:
"Bretonian Armed forces were heading to Omega 3 as he reached the Jump Gate in Cambridge, we waited for them to pass through before continuing. Furthermore we encountered many of them again as they were heading back into Cambridge from Omega 3, again we waited for them to head through first before continuing."
Other Notes:
"I decided to let O'Farrell and Liljefors to have the oportunity to further their skills as pilots and convoy members and each was the lead craft in our convoy on a leg, O'Farrell did well on the way there and Liljefors was equally efficient on the return run."
Convoy Information:
The Gladstone, Whitecliff, and Wolfe departed for Liberty filled with Beryllium ore, the Whitecliff had to stop on Riverside due to taking a little too much damage from a pirate attack. Due to the rather large pirate presence throughout Liberty, we hired a freelancer to provide a bit of security. Thanks to the added protection, we were able to arrive in Bretonia without problem, and the Redgrave accompanied us on our last leg, from Leeds to King's Cross. It was then that the Gladstone and I stopped, and the Redgrave and a few other BES vessels whose names I can't recall set out to grab some Beryllium for another convoy. Shortly thereafter an emergency broadcast came from Port Smallwood, but the other convoy didn't seem to have any troubles with whatever happened in Snowdown.
Convoy Incidents:
Upon passing Riverside, we encountered one Liberty Rogue fighter who attempted to extort us. Thinking he was alone, we refused. Three more Rogue snubs came in and we were forced to make port on Riverside. The Whitecliff took a rather nasty pounding and was forced to stop there. The BES Gladstone and BES Wolfe proceeded to the destination once several Liberty Navy ships came in to secure the lanes/
Other Notes:
The freelancer who we hired was more than trust worthy. A one Vayri Redis, it's been noted that he helped Bowex, BMM, and Interspace Commerce to secure the Snowdown system when Port Smallwood was erected, I expect to see more cooperation between him and Bowex in the near future.

Convoy Information:
We departed from Graves Station in Dublin with gold and headed for Munich, but stopped at the jumpgate between Cambridge and Omega-3 as a BPA officer warned us about Corsair and Reavers in Omega-3. We then headed back and travelled through Liberty and sold the gold in Texas instead. We then proceeded to fly back to Bretonia with nanocapacitators for Scarborough station. At Scarborough we sold the nanocapacitators and bought super alloys which we sold at planet New London.
Convoy Incidents:
Not much except the usual trouble in Liberty, although there was plenty of Liberty lawfuls there to protect us.
Other Notes:
Nothing, although it would be nice to have an escort next time.

Convoy Information: We got some Gold from Graves and headed out to Rheinland, after that the Lawrence had to take his leave the engines didn't work properly so it seemed.
Convoy Incidents:
On our way back Nigel and I encountered a Gaian near the Freeport.
Sadly he did not let himselfe get pursuaded to take our generous offer of Credits and instead engaged us in the attempt to at least achive something in his live.
Well he failed of course and we savely made it back to the Freeport.
Other Notes:
None that are important to get mentioned here.

“This font is good people said, this font is awesome others said, I say it works well enough to waste 2 seconds of your life reading this.”
Convoy Information:
The Gladstone had already been supplying King's Cross for the construction of our latest docking module. After having delivered 8000 units of basic alloy, 4000 units of hull panels, 4000 units of industrial materials and 4000 units of polymers alone, he requested the help of others who were available to join him in supplying the base. Me and Mr Sanders took up the oppurtunity and accompanied Mr Peters to bring in a total of three more loads of industrial materials from Lancaster Trade Centre. At this point, Chris Hart had to depart, though his service was greatly appreciated.
As I was writing this report, both the Hawking and the Gladstone continued to bring in supplies, finishing off the robotics needed.
Later on, I finished the deiliveries of polymers needed, completting all deliveries needed for the docking module meaning that sson after, the docking module had been fully constructed.
Convoy Incidents:
Near the start of my participation, when I reached Southampton, I had a hostile contact appearing on scanners, call sign: Inexorable.Night. Naturally, I became wary and alerted the others. At this point, Mr Peters called in Security which came in the form of a Roc bomber piloted by Mr Hart of BMM. He was kind enough to scout the lanes ahead though we never found that hostile contact, must have been scared off by the mighty Bowex tag.
Another incident occured over Planet Leeds where we were attacked twice by Gallic cruisers and gunboats! However, valiant as ever, Bowex Shires were abloe to destroy the pestering little frogs!

[font=Agency FB]Convoy Participants:
ExSec Hans Liljefors, Eagle.
ExSec David Rye, Eagle.
BES Conway, Clydesdale - convoy leader.
ExSec Ando Rodriguez, Havoc Mk II.
Convoy Information:
"The docking module delivery has been completed successfully by our reliable team of pilots! Three ExSec pilots accompanied the BES Conway to guarantee maximum safety for the convoy.
Once arrived in New Berlin's orbit, the financial transaction of $200'000'000 sirius credits was completed, and as agreed, the captain of the RNC Flensburg accepted the module in stead of our customer Mr. Thorsson.
The convoy used to opportunity to bring along 530 units of engine components on the Conway for Southampton's engineers."
Convoy Incidents:
"Everything was surprisingly calm! We didn't meet a single troublemaker on our way to New Berlin and back. However, our security array was certainly not in vain - it wasn't exclusively due to excellent planning that no pirate groups had gotten wind of this delivery - we were and should always be prepared for an ambush."
Other Notes:
"The escorting pilots have been rewarded for their work with a payment of $5'000'000 sirius credits each. Today's convoy was a good example showing how the combination of reliable scouts, escort pilots and the efficiency of the Clydesdale brigade can deliver most valuable products to our customers safely and in almost no time at all."

Convoy Participants:
BES Rutherford, Shire, Supervisor Stew Wolfe
BES The_Bruce, Percheron, Trainee John Scurvy
BES Redgrave, Shetland, Trainee Glenn O'Farrell
Hans Liljefors, Havoc
Convoy Information:
"Berylium Ore was picked up from Kings Cross and taken to Dortmund Station in New Berlin. The return trip had myself taking Fertilizers from Freiburg to The Royal Conservation Institute on Planet Cambridge, while O'Farrell and Scurvy took loads of Engine Components from Oder Shipyard to Southampton Shipyard."
Convoy Incidents:
"No incidents on the way to Rhineland, however Liljefors encountered a Corsair Cruiser, if my information is correct, outside the Omega 3 gate in Omega 7. After waiting at Freistadt for a few moments we blasted through and into Omega 3, Liljefors did well in keeping the 'sair occupied. While I diverted to Planet Cambridge Liljefors took the other two to New London where they had to avoid a few Reavers being a nuisance."
Other Notes:
"The Royal Conservation Institute was rather pleased to see the fertilizers I brought in, and this should be helpful in saving the Wild Cambridge Fern."
Convoy Information:
While originally, this operation was designed to haul ore to Jerry territory, the Quartermaster on the Cross hadn't prepared any to be shipped, so we opted for some of the refined stuff instead. We took some gold from Graves over to one of our wealthier clients on Augsburg. From there, we managed to secure a shipment of cigars destined for New London, and the majority of us made it without incident.
Convoy Incidents:
The Redgrave got stuck behind in Cambridge and was taken for a few credits by a Corsair cruiser, though I've been informed that said cruiser was destroyed by the pilot of the Becket.
Other Notes:
I would like to officially file a complaint towards the pilot of the Becket, a Mr. Ferret Orson Westbrookings, for a display of most unsavory wordplay.
Bowex)Wolfe: Duncan: This Shire can get anywhere on it's own. Bowex)Becket: Orson: Can it go to hell on its own? Bowex)Wolfe: Duncan: To hell and back! Bowex)Becket: Orson: Prove it. Bowex)Becket: Orson: Go to hell!
In this audiolog, you can clearly hear Mr. Westbrookings in a most extraordinarily unpleasant fashion and rather hostile tone, demanding that I, a fellow honourable Bretonian coworker, go to hell, as he so crudely phrased it. I will not stand for this, and I demand that something be done this instant!
