I greet you honorable warriors of the Kusari Navy. I am Sun Long, First General to her majesty Wu Nan of the New Wu Dynasty, and I deliver a message. Since the exodus, our people have suffered at the hands of your corruption. Always hunted, shunned, and despised, our cries for freedom have been met with an armored fist. No more! We have embraced the old ways and have found a strength that can not be contained. We will fight our oppressors and we shall taste freedom. On behalf of her Exaulted Highness I give you fair warning. It will not be repeated. May you die with honor.
Sun Long - First General of the Jade Empire
-Transmission Terminated-
OOC: I was hoping to give you fine gentlemen an honorable opponent to play with. The story so far is a small group of Chinese were taken by the Kusari sleeper ship and brought to Sirius to be a worker class. For 800 years their numbers have been too small to be of any signifigant threat until now. I'll leave that up tou you to find out why? Our lable is [WU]. I hope to fight and die with honor and above all, have fun doing it. Oh P.S. so far its just me. See you in space

"Nobody ever won a war by dying for his country, you win wars by making the sorry SOB's die for theirs!"
I compliment you and your Ancestors on these remarkable advances. I am sure you will be worthy and honorable opponents.
It saddens me that Kusari's Ancestors considered yours as "workers" at the time of the Great Diaspora. However, I can understand that after such a time, you might still have a "bone to pick" with House Kusari.
In the time-honored tradition of both our Houses, I salute you; and shall salute each time we meet. (...before you taste the wrath of my guns.)
Hai! New fools who wish to oppose the Emperor? We shall strike them out of the sky with the cunning and finesse of a katana in the night! I am at your disposal, my Lords.
A group of Blood Dragons has somehow acquired a Kusari Naval Battleship. Take extreme care if this vessel is encountered, though if a suitable task-force can be assembled it is to be 'decommissioned' and surviving crew captured... then spaced to spare them the embarrassment of a trial. I'm certain they'd want it that way - pay no heed to screams for mercy.
Also note the open broadcast from Wel Hung. Sorry, Sun Long. Those stupid names get me every time. Keep an eye out for yet another group who's aim it is to cause harm to the people of Kusari.

Subject: Blood Dragons repelled from Honshu
------------------------------------------------
Near 1.00 GMT+1 a group of Blood Dragons vessels were sighted near Yukawa Shipyard in Honshu System with hostile intentions,
Heikiko_Maru was caugh alone and crippled.
KNF forces regrouped at Honshu Planet to coordinate an attack plan and then moved towards Yukawa Shipyard in formation with the mighty Shikikan on its head.
Unfortunately Shikikan seems to have some sort of system failure that caused some coordination problems during the attack manouver.
After some time of fight Blood Dragons forces took out our proud destroyer Shikikan but this didn't vanished fighters hopes
which were hitting the enemy stronger than ever.
During the battle each sides received some reinforcements, 2 TBH vessels joined forces with Kusari Naval Forces and
1 LWB vessels joined with Blood Dragons. LWB vessel was immediately engaged at took down in some minutes. After some time Typhoon was crippled.
With the help of TBH vessels Prometheo, KazuoSugino and HikaruSulu managed to cripple remaining enemies one by one.
Final loot was intentionally left for KNF from TBH, which left the system.
KNF & Corsairs forces:
Shikikan
HikaruSulu
Prometheo
KazuoSugino
Typhoon
ManiacoTBH
MontoyaTBH
(and a new KNF recruit I don't remember his name, this will be updated)
OOC* This is my first very report (english is not my motherlanguage and I'm not so good in reports..learning) so feel free to send me a PM to edit.
My personal thanks to Maniaco and Montoya, their help was decisive.
New orders. This is a protest against BDR's use of battleships as their ship of choice + their poor excuses for using them:
No contact or communication - not system chat nor private channel comms - should be made with BDR (Blood Dragon Resistance) battleships unless a KNF group can be assembled that are up to the task of taking one on. Messages are to be answered with silence and combat avoided. BDR battleships are Kusari models used by the navy and are well equipped with native, foreign and alien technologies.
Hopefully the BDR will get the hint.
I imagine this policy will be amended in the future to respond to changing circumstances, so keep an eye on this forum (as always).
This is a copy of a message I sent to the BDR recently, sorry for my tardiness in availing you of its
contents. As it concerns our continued appearances inside of your territory, I feel I should have notified
you sooner. Humblest apologies once again ... Please send any replies to my office on Newark Station.
I hope in my usual alacritous approach, I have not jumped the gun ...
MESSAGE TO: Whoever it may concern @ the Blood Dragon Reserves
Comm ID: Jay Simon CEO [IND]
Now I'm usually quite tolerant of pirates, they are part of the day to day operations nightmare of a large
corporation, but when I get wind of certain groups taking to using Battleships with regularity ... It makes
me a little nervous when it comes to the welfare of me boys and girls. And the parent group tend to want
to put me insurance rates up, that cuts into the profit margins. Really not good ...
As Interspace Commerce, I'm lucky enough to have bases in all four major house Capital systems, and
to this end enjoy the hospitality and good graces of the House Military Factions. For this we give our aid
to any of the four that require it.
As Kusari is your target, I shall be ordering the Epsilon escort Wing to join forces, when requested, with
the KNF to rid them of your interference. This also goes for anyone you feel the need to call in as back-up,
regardless of who they see fit to ally with at the time.
Said single individuals may also find themselves, the subject of ongoing bounty negotiations in the future.
The Dragons may have the support of certain Outcast individuals currently, but if you care to read up in
the biography section of this here forum, you will find one or two bits of possibly surprising information
regarding a certain larger Outcast contingent and its roots and allegencies. They enjoy their own agenda,
and are a little touchy about individuals rocking the boat at this time, when it comes to being dragged into
other things.
Basically I'm a mean, rich b*st*rd, and when I see me status quo, and that of the VPs of the corporation
being threatened, I bite back ...
Please reply to me at the Newark Station Office.
Thank you for your time.
To: KNF leadership
From: Ambassador Abelard of BSG
Friends in KNF, with raising threat by pirates in your systems and their two new battleships BSG is offering you help to deal with pesky pirates. Just say one word and most powerful ship in our fleet, BSG 62 "Pegasus", will be at your service. Also in there would be any need we can deploy one viper wing to assist your fighters.
I will be listening our comms.

Subject: Battle in Chogoku
------------------------------------------------
Near 21.00 GMT+1 Captain Hikaru Sulu, patrolling Honshu system with Prometheo, received encrypted orders from the KNF High Command
to escort =BSG= vessels Nemesis and Hades, located at Honshu->Chogoku jump hole.
Intel data indicated presence of a medium Blood Dragon Resistance and NovaPG fleet in Chogoku and =BSG= were preparing to jump in and fight.
TBH vessel Montoya joined forces with the expedition against BDR.
When all seems to be ready and BSG fleet were jumping to Chogoku, Captain Hikaru Sulu and ensign Prometheo suffered a strange temporary
lack of power to engine and communication system, they reached the battle when it was already begun. Prometheo left the fight after some
time for not-so-unknown reasons.
When all was going well for the =BSG= & Allies fleet, a Phantom fighter and a capital ship the Hellbound joined forces with BDR & NovaPG fleet.
=BSG=Nemesis was suffering heavy fire from the hellbound and was destroyed in a few minutes but suddently another capital ship was on scanners,
this time to help BSG and KNF, the CGW CWS Harrington managed to disable the hellbound, BDR & NovaPG forces were scattered, but still in system.
At this point HikaruSulu took some distance from the fight tring to estabilish a long range communication, very bad idea...
he found himself wandering in an escape pod...so he did not see the end of this battle.
*OOC I hope I did't forgot anyone, it was a quite long battle.
Tags corrected, thank you Fellow Hoodlum. Again, feel free to send me a PM if something else need an edit.
OOC guys, sorry to intrude here and I promise this will be removed when it has been read ....
If you are going to post battle reports please check your facts and figures ...
[BDR]s Intoxication, Hotblack, Die-Hard and -Dragon 002- are infact (NovaPG). A small error that puts the rest
of this in doubt.
Thanks awfully.
