Today after a brief training exercise with my comarades Victor Heinz and Nickolai Alaric,
on my way back to Zvezndy Gorodok I detected a strange anomaly on my radars, so I decided to check it out.
It was a ship by the name of Ka'lash, trespassing in our space, worried that he maybe a spy or an invading force of some kind, I pursued and stopped him.
After a brief conversation he explained he was an explorer, independently mapping out systems. This worried me as the information he may have gathered could be used against us.
He explained how he was working for the IMG, sending them info.
A small Coalition patrol passed by and engaged the intruder, so I followed suit, to remove potential threat from our home. After outrunning the patrol and isolating me from my comrades, he continued to pound my ship with everything he had.
I found it hard to avoid his shots, and was eventually overpowered and forced to yield.
I escorted him out of the system and warned him never to return, on pain of death.
He is now considered Kill on Sight to all border patrols.
My partisan proved ineffective at stopping him as my ship was nearly destroyed. I was able to weaken him although my ship sustained heavy damage from the intruder and so I was forced to let him go.
I am currently out of action for a few hours for emergency repairs, will notify a commanding officer when my ship is space worthy.

After receiving word from the Red Hessian Army that they were under heavy fire, I deviated from my patrols to go assist, unfortunately It was in Omicron Gamma, too much risk.
I decided to make a small hit and run, to damage the Corsairs ships, do my best to assist our revolutionary allies.
After making it into Gamma and becoming the Corsairs main target, I successfully evaded multiple hostiles and skillfully shot a Corsair-Merc's dual Nova torpedoes by accident, killing him but knocking out my shields.
One of the Hessians was being harrassed by a Corsair Piloted 'Hathor' Order gunboat. I manoeuvred closer to the Gunboat and drifted under it, slamming its un-sheilded hull with my Kalashnikovs and Cannonball Missiles.
After another burst It exploded scattering space with smouldering Order tech.
I knew the area was getting too hot, as more and more Corsairs turned their guns to my Insurgent. I then turned to the Omega-41 jumphole and bugged out, with 48 Nanobots left.
Overall I had good battle practice, and call it a success. Although I won't be going back to Gamma again unless ordered to.
On a separate note, a supporter from Liberty contacted me, telling me of his successes in Liberty, and how his front was clear.
"Comrades! Today was a glorious day for our cause, we gained a victory, and we did not need to waste any lives today, so that is even better, it means that maybe we are meeting less violent resistance, the people are starting to come around, perhaps."
"I led a Propaganda Mission into the heart of Fascist Rheinland today, with Sub Lieutenant's Comrade Heinz and Comrade Winters, The three of us took our turns sharing the words of our great cause with the people there."
"We informed one women, Reni Hanako, of how every person, man or woman, peasant or soldier is equal in our society, informed her of our goals in aiding the common people of Sirius, We may be seeing her soon in one of our...Offices."
"There was another, a man...but I cannot seem to recall his name, as he didn't talk long, but he seemed to support our cause as well, as both of them were making verbal jabs at the Rheinland Military man who was there."
"All three of us were able to make it back to home safely, After the two Sub Lieutenants went for a night at the bar, a member of the Liberty Revolutionary Front, one, Ben Werner, made contact with me, and we talked for a good thirty minutes, These people, though much less equipped and trained than The Coalition Military, Would make valuable allies to us, their methods echo the methods of our great army, before we were as strong as we are now, their ideals echo ours, and their passion is equal to ours as well, If I may state my opinion, I believe that we should increase, and make stronger our ties with them, they represent what we represent, though they have easier access to the Libertonian people than we do, So I do think that perhaps an Alliance with them would be something we should seek to establish...But of course Comrades, that is just my opinion, I'm no policy maker."
"In any event, This was a Glorious day for us.
For The Red Dawn! Lieutenant Commander Vaschenko, Out!"

Subject: Action in Omega 41 Begin Message**
This is a battle report on a skirmish that took place a few hour ago. Long range scans had detected a substantial Corsair presence (mostly Omega Pirates Guild) in Omega 41, and myself and a few other comrades took up the task to investigate this matter.
Present on the mission were myself, Lt. Stacy Winters, Lt. Gabriel Mao, and Cmd. Luis Gellantra, who was the C.O. We encoutered two standard fleet Corsairs and three members of the Omega Pirates Guild.
The combat was intense. The battle mostly took place in the immediate area surrounding the Omega 5 Jump Hole. Lt. Mao was unable to use his nanobots in time, and was blasted by the vile OPG several minutes into the dogfight. Luckily, I was able to tractor in his pod on time. The fighting continued subsequently. We started tearing up an OPG pilot, but the cowardly scum fled through the Omega 5 Jump Hole rather than fight and win. As such, the target switched to Carlito, an OPG member. We administered great damage thanks to our superior skills and weapons, but his friends suddenly started focusing fire on me, rendering me useless for the most part since I was forced to suspend combat and start evading.
I was able to hold of the enemy attacks until the Corsairs once again decided to switch targets. As the dogfight progressed, we intercepted enemy OPG comms ordering the corsairs back to Omicron Gamma. We gave chase to the OPG, one of them being Carlito, into the nearby minefield. Here, my self and Comrade Winters were able to overpower and destroy Carlito using a well placed mine and two well directed Cruise Disruptors.
During this time, though, Comrade Gellantra was getting overpowered, so he ordered myself and Comrade Winters to pull out and retreat. His vessel took a battering, but he was able to hold off the Corsairs until Winters and I were safe in Omega 52, and finally he himself miraculously made it safe to Omega 52. As an amusing side note, a foolish Corsair attempted to follow us into Omega 52, where he was promptly blasted apart by the CPW Kurt.Eisner.

Comrades! I have new orders for all pilots operating on the Eastern Front. Priority Targets are as follows:
-Reapers of Sirus Fighters/Bombers - Four Points
-Slave and Cardamine Traders - Four Points per Pilot Present*
-Rheinland Military Bombers - Three Points
-Rheinland Military Fighters/ Rheinland Federal Police Fighters/Bombers - Two Points
-Corsair Fighters/Bombers - Two Points
-Corsair or Outcast Capital Ships - Two Points per Pilot Present
-Other Hostiles of any kind - One Point
*If all cargo is Dropped, same points apply to all pilots.
Extra points shall be given for High Ranking Enemy Pilots, extraordinary individual actions, or excellent group tactics, as appropriate. Fighters shall not deploy in groups less than three, and shall not leave the Eastern Area of Operations.
For those of you who do not remember the "Points" system, I'll give you a brief rundown. Essentially, pilots fly in groups, seeking and destroying priority targets, or forcing the drop of slaves and cardamine. The pilots who rack up the most points (and kills, usually) shall find themselves showered in honours, or at least given some extra Vodka. Occasionally, a pilot will be promoted on merit of these competitions.
It is each pilots responsibility to keep an individual track of both their number of kills, and the points they have acquired on this campaign. As you'll notice, the priority targets are the RoS, should they venture into our Zone of Operations, Slavers, and Cardamine dealers. All other targets are secondary, but still important. Prove your kills, or they'll not be counted.
As a small incentive, the first pilot to bring back a guncam footage of any of the targets worth two points or more shall win the Eastern Campaign Star.

The Downing of any of these pilots will earn the pilot an immediate Red Halo of Heroism, in addition to a full crate of vodka. As well as six points. Guncam footage expected. In addition, any pilot who destroys a ship of the Slavers Union shall earn themselves the Sickle of the Proletariat, and five points.
For the Revolution, and Good Hunting pilots! Kirk out.

Today, I received word that the Cartel had paid a smuggler to haul a rather large amount of Cardimine into Liberty, this could not go unpunished. The people will not suffer at the hands of the Orange Poison.
Numbers were limited and I was the only one available on 'Moonbase', I decided that maybe it was best If I went at this alone. Pick him off in the middle of nowhere by intercepting him in California.
I made my way through the Omegas and was contacted by a friend in Liberty, Lachlan Phoenix.
We discussed a possible meeting between the revolutionaries and I offered him to assist me in punishing smugglers.
He accepted and we agreed to meet up in California.
After a long and dangerous trek, I arrived and California Minor and we were joined by his good friend Mr Warner.
Pheonix lead us onto a tradelane between Planet Los Angeles and the Cortez Jumpgate where we began a stakeout to catch smugglers, and potentially Joe Washburne.
Unfortunately he didn't show, but we got to toy with some Navy personnel.
I managed to get some nice hits on the Navy ships, but Warner got two kill-shots and Phoenix got the last, much to my dismay.
We then heard reports of an Ion Storm approaching and decided to make a break for Bering to land at Pacifica Base, I narrowly avoided three Navy battleships and we headed for the Texas Jumphole.
In Texas we realised it was too late to try and land, so we headed for the darkside of Chisos and shut down out systems, hoping the dark matter wouldn't do too much damage.
After blacking out, me and Mr Warner awoke, to find Mr Phoenix missing. We check out scanners but could not see him.
Unfortunately we spotted a potential smuggler and had to pursue before we could find out lost friend.
He disappeared into Puerto Rico and so we waited, me and Mr Warner exchanged stories of our pasts.
An LNS began broadcasting insults to the Revolution, so naturally, we shouted back, as we began our tactical retreat back to Bering to land and resupply.
When we were ready, we set out back for Omega-52, Warner promised to accompany me through Hamburg, but no further.
We made our way though Hamburg and I said goodbye to Warner, abusing an RM as I did so. I made my way on my own through New Berlin to Stuttgart. In Stuttgart I met an old friend and ex-GC who supported us, merely weeks ago in New Berlin. We passed simple words and I had to rush off, receiving Comms from an Order agent.
We exchanged words and I headed back through Omega-11, Omega-5 and back into Omega-52 and home to Moonbase.
I also bought a hefty cargo hold of prisoners which I had captured through the campaign, ready for interrogation.
All in all the LRF should be commended for their heroic efforts to the Great Revolution. They proved worthy allies and I hope to continue operations with them in the future.
