My covert mission into Rhineland has already yielded some significant results.
Under the assumed identity of Matt Howard, a freelance fighter pilot, I spoke with an advanced AI [Designation: A.A.A.I] housed in the chassis of a Rhineland cruiser about its origins and connection to the Rhineland military. Although the AI denied any militaristic intent in its design, it is probably safe to assume that Rhineland forces are experimenting with AI assistance on their capital ships.
During my time with the Order I have also observed this experimentation on ships of the Liberty Navy, although much less advanced in their design than this specimine.
On a side note, the newly aquired weapons [codenamed DEFILERS] have proved very effective in combat, allowing a ship of VHF class to deplete the shields of a cruiser sized vessel with astonishing efficiency. Further research into these weapons will hopefully allow them to replicated.
Good day.

I have just come into some new information. Our operations within Gallia are to stay low, there is a navy black ops group, codenamed Cerberus operating there. Without a doubt they will attack us on site. Existing orders still stand, but avoid confrontation at all costs.
I'll have a few of our agents take care of them so to speak, perhaps feed them misinformation.
Am I to understand then that Cerberus is a branch of the Gallic Royal Navy?
If they are then the fact that they were spotted in Omicron 92 shows that they are active throughout Sirius, not just in Gallia.
Is there any intel on what vessels they use? Logic dictates that they would be using Sirian civilian vessels to avoid detection but if they are flying GRN vessels then they would be a force to be reckoned with.
Good day.

On a side note, I have returned to Minor temporarily to fit my covert operations vessel with new missile launchers, turn in my reports so far on the Rhineland operation and perform tests with the DEFILER weapons. I shall return to Rhineland once this is complete.
On the way into Alaska there was a small altercation with a navy patrol who objected to a freelance vessel entering Zone 21 but the situation was resolved with the assistance of contacts in the Liberty Navy. All records of the event have been deleted from the vessels involved. No shots were fired.
Good day.

Roger that Leutenant. Safe flying.
I have a possible lock on Dangen, but Izzy wont speak of it. Nothing can stop that AI from running her mouth off.
Resheph Class Cruiser Solitude is MIA, unable to find it.
Thats all I got, I was hoping I'd get some better evidence.
And now, two Navy Black Ops? As if Gold Wing wasnt hard enough to deal with already...
My Resheph is close to completeion (//60 more mill as off right now//) and should be launching soon. AWACS_Ghost.Eye.

FIELD REPORT
ID: Omicron
Location: Omicron Major
We got major problem here. Nathanial Valentine was trying to activate hyper gate, after we sucked inside dyson sphere we thankfuly to suprisly taken inside Order capital vessel warped out through incomplete part of Dyson Sphere and cointune to home. We lost sign of Valentine, it is Order gunboat class vessel and propably infected. Stand by I am preparing a full report and it will released soon.
Sender: Agent Chris Leigh, Order Secondary fleet
Priority: Highest
I bring grave news.
Major Hunter is MIA.
Major Hunter, Omicron, Order Agent Marley and I persued the Nomad influenced Order gunboat commander Nathaniel Valentine to Omicron Major. I don't know how but once we were there, Valentine succeeded in opening the Nomad hypergate, despite our best efforts to stop him. All ships in the system were immediately transported to a Dyson Sphere. Here we found what Major Hunter described as 'The Source'. I know not of what he was speaking but the structure was vast and occupied by a large Nomad installation protected by an inpenetrable engergy shield. Even the DEFILER wepons would not scratch it.
Once we had regrouped, Hunter persued Valentine into the heart of the star. We thought him dead and left the sphere with assistance from an Order recon cruiser. Once returning to Omicron Minor I recieved an urgent communication from Hunter saying to head to Omicron Delta.
Once there, I witnessed Hunter and Valentine locked in combat around the Omicron Iota jump hole. Valentine's ship dragged Hunter's into the hole and all communications from both ships ceased. The last of the Majors comms I recieved were as follows:
"This ends now! For Rika!"
I arrived in time only to find Hunters co-pilot, Lt. Aqua drifting near the Iota jump. She is currently aboard the Isis in the medical bay in a stable condition although she has not regained consoiusness since I picked her up.
Unfortunately, my guncam was damaged in the battle with Valentine's gunboat and I was unable to record the events. Other pilots may have pictorial evidence. (//This is an in RP way of saying; my printscreen key is buggered).
As an ending note, I would like to reccommend Agent Marley for induction into the Preservers. He performed admirably throughout this ordeal and I know him to be a very capable agent. He will hopefully provide a fitting replacement for Major Hunter, God rest his soul.

He is alive! We don't know where he is but we know he is alive. Our only lead is Xion, we must find her. Izzy left instructions to tell Rika Jeremy is KIA. Official records should state this to fool any potential enemies.

Matt Howard's cover has been blown (// Everyont wants to fight him to test the DEFILERs aparently so its not exactly ideal). White.Icarus is now my codename and I can be contacted under that name.
