Rheinland seemed strangely quiet. I docked on Kaiserslautern, unnoticed by authorities, with my pirate train [RHA]RHT-Solidaritat full of neccessary shipment of HFuel and Light Arms, ready to be shipped to Casablanca. Unlike traffic on trade lanes of New Berlin, Kaiserslautern's dock was filled with rushing workers and LWB officials, repairing damaged vessels and reloading fuel on docked ones.
New Berlin News on holo-tv in the bar was rather optimistic about ongoing war against pirates in Dresden, but it was all lies and propaganda. None of those reporters have been anywhere near our last raid near Leipzig, or when Bautzen was cut off for several hours not a few days ago.. As I lighted my second LWB cigar, all I could think was how will I survive Casablanca resupply route from those damn cannibals in Omegas..and then I noticed mysterious LWB-dressed boy running toward me:
''You've got urgent messagge, Herr'' - said a boy and passed me written note before he slipped back in the crowd in the bar.
I didnt have time to say anything but I knew what that meant. So near Dresden and urgent? It must have to do something with Rheinwehr cruiser RNC-Zohan, whose frequency I picked up while entering Saarfeld. As it turned out, leutnant Hessler was already in his bomber [RHA]Messerschmidt, trying to locate notorious cruiser in New Berlin and needed assistance. I gave messagge to bartender with orders to dock my transport into hangar after refueling and run toward nearest elevator.
On dock 6H, my bomber [RHA]Gotha was waiting just for the emergencies of this kind..
After meeting in space, RNC-Zohan was nowhere to be found. Presuming he was docked, we went to collect vastly needed resources for new hessian minning operations in O-11. Soon, Republican Rheinland Train named ''Vox'', laden with gold came into the clutches of Revolution. Having been stopped, near Bonn, we asked for donation of 2mil credits or half its cargo, although it should have been more as cooperation of Daumann and Republican Shipping is known for its brutality toward our brothers in minning syndicates.
Foolishly, republican pilot neglected our warnings to stop his ship and was blown to smithereens... Im sure its 'golden' blast disheartened Strausberg and Bonn spaceship crews..
New contact from RNC-Zohan was soon picked up in Hamburg, having slipped behind our back while we were dealing with greedy Republican pilot. We couldnt allow our transports laden with blood diamonds to be halted by this Kanzler's dog!
Although we entered Hamburg unnoticed, our presence in Hamburg was soon discovered when we closed trade lanes near Alster Shipyerd. Rheinwehr captain didnt even tried to engage and fled toward planet Hamburg, openly announcing that 'he didnt have time to deal with hessians'.. Blockade was thus opened without a fight.
Soon, contact was picked of unknown trader named Lusitania in Hamburg, whose frequency was same as unknown ship in Munich. Suspicious Lusitania soon jumped toward Frankfurt, trying to avoid contact and I quickly followed her toward Munich, with Herr Hessler soon following us. Did they tried to bypass us? Why is she running? I was right, Lusitania was full of VIPs going toward Augsburg Orbital Colony in Munich, cargo that would make her especially worthy to our cause..
When we came to Munich, Lusitania was stopped but as it turned out, BH Orca gunboat named Nostromo was waiting for us in Munich to protect precious ship not to fall to our hands.. Unfortunately, Lusitania managed to escape, delaying us with sweet-talk for enough time to jump on nearest tradelane. Her name will be written in hessian 'black book' for future encounters.
Nostromo was foolish enough to engage us without warning and he succumbed quickly to our concentrated fire, unable to say anything before his ship disintegrated. His remains are yet to be found...
After this, we knew military are going to be after us. We agreed we should go separate ways. Herr Hessler left to dock in Frankfurt while I returned to Kaiserslautern over Frankfurt-Kreuzberg route.. As soon as I docked, that same LWB-dressed boy came running with yet another messagge. It said:
''[RHA]RHT-Solidaritat is refueled and ready to undock''
Hessian bread is made in the furnace of war.. and so I undocked...

Guten Tag,
Herman here. I know I'm not reporting here a lot myself, but I'm sure there's a lot of reports of my actions.
Anyways, I'm here to report a strange thing, that I saw today.
After some training in Omega-54, Udo jumped in. We all know who he is, yes that LWB guy.
He was panicked and scared, he said that he saw a 101st Ghost in Rheinland, killing RM and Dauman personnel. Of course, we didn't believe it at first. But after a few moments, I gave up and jumped into my Odin. Udo didn't want to follow me to New Berlin, I had to go alone (later on, Messerchmidt came to my aid). After the jump, I saw him. He really was there, a 101st Ghost. He was fighting a Dauman escort.
In the mean time, a bounty hunter jumped in, but Messerschnidt took care of it.
Anyways, I let the Ghost finish the fight, of course he won. After that we had a talk. I didn't understand much of his talk (he said something about, suffering, I think), but I ordered him to leave. He really did leave... After that, me and my companion, we went back to Vogtland.
Now, if any RHA personnel spots that vessel in Rheinland again, ask him kindly to leave. If not, engage with extreme caution.
His ship was tagged: Vince.Piccio[101st]
That is all.

I wrote a really funny FL story, but it disappeared when the old forum went away. So, no lulz for you today.

Topic: More Corsair Casualties
Guten Tag Mein herren,
Today at around 2100 hours I began my patrol of the Omega 5 System, eventually grouping up with a Hessian Cruiser. The Captain of the Cruiser informed me of Corsair Activity and i decided to scout the areas they had been sighted.
About 12 clicks from Cadiz a Corsair named Black Berry was sighted and he engaged. After 10 minutes of he engaged another Corsair, Blood Lust, engaged. Blood Lust was destroyed by myself, while Hessler was distracting Black berry, he was suffering from Radar jamming which he was unable to fix at the time. He had to leave. This left me and Black berry fighting alone. The fight was long untill i got the upper hand as i dragged him into the Hammen hole and hit him whith a few mines. He tryed to flea to Cadiz but i managed to destroy him.

Major Ferdinand Gryneus Oberleutant, Ernst Neurath and i were patrolling in the Dresden system. We've encountered a fighter wing from RM consisting 5 ships lead by [RM]-Maj.Auztin.Engels. After a brief message the Rheinland Military's ships attacked us. From Vogtland 1 RHA-HT ship H.Vonlichter arrived as reinforcement. After a long tiresome fight we defeated the RM ships. Sadly Komet recieved critical damage, and Her Gryleus had to use his escape pod. But thankfully he was unharmed, we tracktored his pod in. From the LWB Udo.Ackermann was also there, but he suddenly panicked. We understood him after we also checked our radar, a Rheinland Cruiser the "zedrof" was on his way to us and he opened fire without warning. We returned fire, and it retreated after taking sirious damage. Today we've sent another message to the Kanzler.

Gutentag meine herren.
Heute while relaxing on vogdtland we got a call to move our fighters to Hamburg at once to help our allies.
Turned out that our allies were fighting a heavy rheinland patrol.
The unioners had 2 kreuzer and we had a bomber in combat with a battleship.
Both kreuzers were crippled and forced out of action.
Our forces of Hessians and Bundshuh engaged the military to retaliat.
After a long fight of dodging both sides lost ships, but with our determination and working together we managed to keep the upperhand.
Than the military got help from a bounty gunship.
Immediatly we forgot all about the military and started pounding the gunship.
Poor crew the never knew what hit them as we penetrated there hull with our natters, missles and snac's
That will learn the hunters to mind there own buisness.
With the hunter gone we focused again on the military.
They were picked off and there fighters destroyed.
i was almost 1 on 1 with one of them.
Thankgod Gunther got my back.
Well after that kill the military decided it was enough and started retreating.
We did let them go, after all they are Rheinlanders as we all.

Gentlemen, if you haven't been yet briefed on the most recent situation, I suggest you read the report from Major Hoerst's SOA. Our gunship, the RHGB Tiger, has been destroyed today during an alien attack on the Omega-5 system, taking our most celebrated gunship crew with it. It is truly a tragedy and a sad day for the Red Hessians, as the best of the best falls before the accursed guns of an unknown enemy.
Of course, it stands to reason that we cannot simply let this be. I have immediately commissioned the Dresden reserve to Omega-5, it's finest gunship along with it. Ronneburg will now be defended from armoured assault by the RHGB Greif, which I am officially renaming as of right now to RHGB Jagdtiger in order to commemorate the crew of one of the finest ships in our fleet.
It is our job, my fellow Hessians, to help the crew of this ship strike fear into the hearts of our enemies in that system, alien and human alike. Know, that even though we suffered a loss today, we will still continue to fight and prevail!

I want to be short and quick, as always. The fight was in Omega 3 against 4 'sairs. At first they succesfully killed Raubvogel and then ave as well, but I got their pod. Then I managed to hit Leonardo with the Antimatter Cannon, the Grimly and finally Pride as well. Finally Adolph mined Karolis...

Her general Meisnerr, I can finaly say YEEEEEHAAAAA. Those cursed doctors finaly released me from hospital after all those moths of boredom. Well... hmm I must be thankful because because without their efort was quite big chance to see me for rest of my life on wheel chair.
Sadly after all those moths in inactivity isnt smartest idea to put me right into action, I am asking for permision to stay out from our actions for a while and take some training time to regain my flying skills.
