Today I was patrolling when I encountered the Zoner cruiser Weapons For Sale that you deemed hostile to Liberty.
I docked my fighter and launched the Fluff-, I launched my cruiser.
I chased it all the way into Colorado where I finally managed to talk to its captain as some fat and slow DSE ships were blocking the gate into Galleo.
I told him he was wanted for attacking a navy admiral and breaking Liberty law. He then said 'cya then' and ran into galleo.
How come I saw that coming?
I chased after him and managed to hurl a mortar round on the lanes ahead so he was cut off.
I decided not to waste any more time talking: this guy was a loon. He even claimed that 'I was Hale, out for revenge'
I told him I was way better than that: I was Virgil Redline. Then I shot his cruiser out from under his sorry ass.
Here are some images we took during our chase. please note the amusing garble hurled at me.
And here a nosey merc wanted to know why I blew up a wanted warship. the man wasn`t even near the incident: I made sure I disposed of the Zoner cruiser when there was no one looking.
Please note the cries of rage in which the Zoner captain admits to be shooting at admiral Hale again.

I started my patrol today from the Virginia system. I check all the Gate's On Texas Bering and Hudson and went on to Patrol NY. En route I encounter a gang of Liberty Rouge and Mercenary ships waiting for pray.
After they try d to flirt with me yes flirt the party started. All of the Gang went Trigger Happy To my aid arrived a GB but it barely shot at any of the targets but managed to draw their fire away. One by one they all fall One bomber and a spatial Snac them real good. They will think twice next time before they try to pirate. I am attaching gun cam shot's.
On my patrol today I received a distress call from a civilian inside the Pennsylvania System, apparently two unknown vessels had been positioned in between trade-lanes, halting passing ships and interrogated them. This did not seem like the typical behavior of a pirate so I decided to call in several extra pilots to start searching for these two trouble-makers.
After much searching was done, we finally spotted the two suspected pilots making their way towards the California jumphole in attempt to escape from our hands. A pilot who was stationed on the other side of the system confirmed that the vessels were of Rheinland origin, gunboat-classes to be more specific. Unfortunately he did not manage to intercept them in time and so we lost track of them shortly thereafter. Disappointed by the results we received a second chance to make up for our past failures.
This time they tried to break through our blockade that had been set-up between California and Pennsylvania gate-way. At first they seemed to succeed in this task but on the other side of the system we caught up with them and were forced to engage in combat due to the fact that they opened fire the minute we reached close to their proximity.
I would also like to state that the mercenary named Evelyn Foster was a vital component in this chase, and without her assistance I'm certain of that one of the two gunboats would have manage to escape during engagement.
[color=#3366FF]We still do not know why or how they had managed to enter so deep inside Liberty territory, the information we had received was minimal at best. For now, all incoming threats from Rheinland have been neutralized, we can only assume more attempts will be made.

Evenin'. Pretty tired, and soon ya'll know why. Admihral Hale called for a "Forward attack Operation" as he calls it. I'd call it pinching the lion's nose, but oh well. We got a goodly strikegroup formed and moved smartly into Strudel-munchers' Hamburg.
We floated 'round for a while, then as expected, we hit a patrol. Ol' Hale held us back for a looong while while he waited for an opportunity to slice 'em open. But later rather than sooner, we were in battle.
Didn't get podded during the fight, Several of my wingmen did though. Five out of the original Eight, and lost a gunboat, all hands were rescued. But we sure did some damage. We killed....A gunboat, A Mjolnir fat-behind, And Several of those pesky Wraiths. In the end, myself, Admihral and fellow Ensign Lennox managed to make it to safety with the fallen's pods. All in all, a good day for Liberty.

I received a Battle call today from the admiral and I jumped to my Bomber. The call was because we Attack Hamburg. I Intercepted our wing at Alster Shipyard we advanced a little bit more. And we were Intercepted by enemy fighters. We engage them Imidietly as a bomber pilot I know that all fighter fighter combat is to be avoided. But I engaged anyway. But my talents behind the Bomber cockpit were Noticed by the RM pilots and after I Killd 2 of their friends they give me hell. My bomber wasn't fast enough for their guns so my bomber was shot down but my pod was recover By Elena. Today I learned that even the wraith can eat the SNAC. I am placing the gun cam shots from my ship.

Good Evning sirs today I started my patrol and encountered the LNS-Indiana and we paroled together. We done a Sweep in NY and we moved on the Cali we made one sweep when we encounter a Pirate Transport. We stop it at the NY gate. Captain Marlone told it to leave Liberty because he was flying a Pirate Transport and those aren't allowd here. But it refused so we destroy it. The battle however attracted some pirates a Slave Liner 2 Rouge bombers and a civilian Bomber. We try d to talk them in to Submission to leave the area and so on , but they didn't listen. They opened fire on the Indiana it took some snac hits. After the rouges show that they mean it it was time to show our teeth. The Indiana was Nice enough to take the enemy bomber shields. So i moved in to position and launch t My Super Nova Antimatter Cannon. Booth Bombers were Destroyed. After that we went to fresh up on Norfolk ship yard. Uploading

Greetings to commanding officers.
I have recently acquired a pack of following weapons:
4xDark Blossom
I am sending a request for usage to High Command officers, because these prototype weapons provide greater firepower and will significantly help in my multiple duties. Magma Hammer class worked for me doubtlessly outstanding, but when there is a chance to put higher technology in use - I'd rather use it.
Adding to Sub Lieutenant Dimitrova's report - I encountered a repair ship under the command of a Doctor Dhagon Gent. At first glance, the ship appeared to be a run-of-the-mill repair ship, but a cargo scan revealed something a lot more sinister.
I stopped him and started to question him about what the anomalous energy signature was... [Start Flightlog 074-###-RGA]
Then a few pirates and a Phantom came along, but I stayed focused on the massive power fluctuations being emitted by the Doctor's extremely dangerous artifact.
The Doctor is still being held for questioning.
>Hostile transports.
Both Express_DeliveryANDJarek.Smuggler are now considered enemies of the Republic of Liberty and are to be arrested on sight. Lethal force is sanctioned if targets fail to comply.
See below flightlog data for more information [Start Flightlog 076-###-RYI]
Evidence against Jarek:
>Note to all new Officers.
May I remind all officers to use their judgement when in a tense battle situation and realise that there are people aboard any target you designate. Make sure the target has done something to warrant being attacked - But attacking another pilot is a last resort.
I don't want lawsuits against the Navy because officers were too trigger-happy.
it is some time ago when my last report was filed.
Although I have been around, nothing of importance happened,
when I decided to take out my Guardian or Upholder.
Until today.
It began while serving on the Tacoma, I am the navigational officer
on board this Gunboat.
While patrolling California, we got in contact with two Rheinland Gunboats,
which I followed - after a small navigational mistake - to Cortez.
They immediately started to fire on us and since the Groom.Lake was still
in California I called for more firepower.
A minute later, Captain Malrone reached Planet Curacao.
The result was not the one we were hoping for, they retreated and thrusted
away.
After a short break I jumped in my Upholder to restart the chase.
The LNS-Wolfcrest, Recruit Speights, the Nevada Brightstar, a
LSF Agent and me tried to get in visual range.
While still chasing me and the Wolfcrest got intercepted by two Gunboats,
an Outcast and another Pirate one, which immediately attacked us.
It was a good fight, we lost the Wolfcrest though.
Without the help of the LPI-San.Quentin which came at the right time,
I would have needed to retreat, too.
Recruits Jason Hunter and Samuel Lennox are promoted to the rank of Ensign as of now. Captain Casero sends his regards... something about a toothbrush and toilet for Mr. Hunter, and a sewing machine and cape for Mr. Lennox. Anyhow, continue to show the Navy's qualities and you two will go far. You two may now fly the Avenger or Guardian class vessels. Congratulations and may the two of you have continued success.
