Greetings sirs,
Not a very profitable day but at least one less kusarian to worry about.
Kusarian transport
Found it in Edinburgh and followed it to Leeds where I got him. After firing multiple salvos, he stopped and tried to lie telling me he's not Kusarian and that he's "russian"... After that he tried to use a clocking device which failed to do its job giving me the perfect opportunity to blast him.

Today was a interesting start off. I revived word that a AI Cruiser who has been spotted siding with Kusari forces in the Dublin system was floating around The Essex, of course I could not let this be.
Captain Green, commanding the Fearless came into the area to assist me with taking down the Kusari programed drone.
It was quite the hassel, having to shoot this "thing" instead of hindering the economy up north, but this had to be done. I think it was about to launch an attack on The Essex, like the Research Drones do every now and again.
Scratch one Kusari Battleship... proving, yet again, that when it comes to a fight 'taint the size that counts, it's how you whack 'em round the back of the noggin with a hatchet!

Hello all,
After finally getting the Crow class put together and giving her a maiden flight with the help of Valerie, I thought I should post an introduction. You'll see me flying under my names. Look forward to flying with you all and putting some hurt on the 'great' Kusari.

Greetings fellow Privateers;
After some discussion with the Golden Chrysanthemums, the bulk of them have decided to grant us permission to base our attacks out of Ainu Depot, with the following conditions:
# We are to be respectful of all GC members while aboard Ainu (a given since we would be guests there).
# In the event of retreat we are under no circumstances to lead Kusari forces back to Ainu.
# Privateers are not permitted to land aboard Battleship Matsuda in the Okinawa system.
They have also been kind enough to share with us an edited version of their starcharts, which have helped refine our ability to plot routes between Kusari systems. Given that we now have a base of operations in Kusari itself, I suggest that we move the forward staging area from Tau-23 to Hokkaido as it gives us far greater ease of access to Kusari's central systems. I also think we should contact the IAB about helping to supply the Chrysanthemums to repay their favor.
As many of you probably know, Kusari has recently placed trade embargos on certain exports into Liberty - this souring of relations might work to our advantage given that Kusari is becoming increasingly reliant on shipments from Rheinland. Some increased pressure in eastern Kusari might help turn up the heat on the Kusari economy - perhaps we should consider this next time we review our target lists.
I have a rather short report for today events thus far.
I un-docked from the Essex only to see some Ensign and Convoy|HMS captain fighting with some Miners outside of the Essex. I got involved and meditated the fight, and got peaceful solution. The miners moved away understanding why they were told to move.
I then moved to Leeds only to find the Dagobaz trying to get some AI Cruiser to leave the Derby. It did not respond, so we attacked. It was not long until it was killed.

Hello again fellow Privateers,
I have made some progress since my last transmission, halting trade into and out of kusari. Today has been a mixed bag, I was successful in halting one trader who gave up peacefully in kyushu, but when I stopped Truckerz_Rising he stalled for a bit and was lucky enough to have a gunboat show up. He called for the gunboat (a freelancer) to attack me. So I let loose on the Transport. Half way into the battle he called for me to stop and said he would surrender. I stopped, but the gunboat didn't so I attacked it. Truckerz_Rising then showed his true colours and ran. I re-engaged with him but we were close enough to the planet that he barely made it to the docking port. With my ship heavily damaged, and my torpedoes having guidence system problems I was forced to retreat.
