[[Too liberty High Command]]
[[From LT Joe Mctyre]]
Joe walks form the Petersburg flightdeck toward his quaters.
It was a long day there was a lot of action today. *God i wish i never volunteered for that second shift* he thinks.
When he arrives at his quaters he walks in and goes sitting behind his desk. *Ok lets make that report and than hit a shower* he thinks.
Joe turns on some music and starts typing on his notepad.

goodday sirs.
Today we seen a lot of action.
I dont remember them all but ill try too describe them as short as possible.
When i launched from BS Missouri i got word that there was a person in the restricted area called Flaker.
I requested permission too enter from my senior officer, and was go to find out what his buisness was there.
When i asked him too leave he claims too be busy..
I even asked him twice too leave.
ID scanning:
I know we may destroy this vessels immediatly but i see he was a young pilot who just learn too fly so i wanted too be nice but he refused too go and i opend fire.
Well he was destroyed shamly... i gave him a change too leave well his mistake.
After this i was called too NY by Capt Malaign because a keeper was sighted.
They cam twice too NY today on my watch.
1st photofile:
And i can paint a nomad ship on my fighter 1 confirmed kill on the second keeper.
2nd photofile:
I also want too ask LSF officer iff they may miss a XV-736 Ravon Claw?
I ran in these guy a Xeno called Galahead he was in a XV-736.
1st photofile:
Also seems he killed Bountyhunters and kept there weapons too use them himself, than when i scanned him he carried atleast 2 Buckshots on his weaponsslots.
After a pursuit i manage too destroy the ravenclaw in NY.
Begin morning patrol at Station ********* and proceeded to the New York system enroute to the Texas system. Found nothing out of the ordinary. System comm was busy with all Liberty units upholding the law. Upon arrival at Houston I came across Satlun coming out of the Bearing-Houston TL and under a cusurary scan was found to be carrying over 3,000 units of cardimine. I called for him to halt but he had hurried to the dock and was halfway through the process. A short time later he undocked with equipment replacing the cardimine. While we discussed what he had done wrong and gave his word that he would not do it again, I fined him 2 million credits. We need more patrols in the Texas system.
Shortly after that a ship named Radicsphere came out of the TL with a load of Military Equipment. I Ordered him to halt and he burned to the Houston-NY TL. I gave chase. Upon entering the NY system I gave an ALL CALL for any Lawful ship to stop Radicsphere. Several Liberty Navy ships and Guardian joined in the pursuit. He was chased all the way to the Rio Grande where he docked. The whole trip I repeatably asked him to halt. He would call back why and I answered, For violation of the Embargo and Failure to stop at the Request of a Lawful Officer. We surrounded the Rio Grande and Ordered him to depart and talk to us. The crew of the Rio Grande attempted to forcible eject his ship out the airlock, also attempted to do a hostile boarding and was repulsed. It seemed like the ship was being run by computer.
//He sat in dock till server kicked him.
Rio Grandes assault squad finally was able to breach the ship to find no one on it. The team suffered one fatality and 4 other causalities. Ship is now being studied by the LSF and LN Intel.
I wish to thank all the Liberty navy pilots and crews that attempted to assist in the capture of this ship. I also thanked Guardian for his assistance. I returned to the Texas system to finish my patrol.

The following is classified under security level Rho.
Subject: Operation Dinner Out
This is Commodore Willows to Liberty Navy High Command.
Operation Dinner Out was a complete success.
The BDR-804 "Guardian" Very Heavy Fighter, BDR-845 "Avenger" Very Heavy Fighter and the XV-736 "Ravenclaw" Assault Fighter
have been securely delivered to Queen Carina's Royal Fleet during the last night between 20.00 and 23.00 SMT.
There were no noteable occurances during that part of the operation, everything went smoothly.
Likewise, the one hundred and twenty 4-11b "Advanced Splitter" Tachyon Cannons have been retrieved this morning between 06.00 and 09.00 SMT by our forces,
led by Captain Malaign, and are now being examined and adapted to be used on our ships by the engineers on Willard.
We will be immediatly informed once the weapons become available for use.
On a sidenote, we have also managed, with the help of some old friends who don't need to be mentioned further,
to procure a shipment of forty brand new Ageira Technologies CL-f "Flashpoint" Civilian Heavy Laser Cannons.
This latest generation of Civilian laser weaponry features extensive compatibility with most shiptypes known to date,
and an increased damage output compared to our R8-E "Vengeance" Mk.V Liberty Laser Cannons.
I suggest that the distribution of those weapons will be handled similar to how it was done with the recently found "Buckshot" Particle Blasters.

A belated note of appreciation for my recent promotion, I am honoured to receive this and endeavour to continue with my good work in protecting Liberty.

What a horrid day for Liberty, and indeed all of humanity (except those god forsaken outcasts...)
The keepers launched their assault today on NY. 5 keepers in total. Outside the JG, the liberty amassed it's fleet. The battleship San Francisco was present, as well as a cruiser and several gunboats. Then the keepers, and a delusional ROS pilot launched their assault. One keeper quickly fell, but then the tide of battle soon swayed. After the San Francisco was destroyed, the battle went downhill. The cruiser was destroyed next, and then the gunboats. Luckily a corsair force joined in on the fray with 2 fighters and a cruiser, but even they could not sway the tide of battle. The ROS pilot fell next, only to be replaced by an outcast gunboat, which was quickly destroyed as well. But after that, the battle was split into two groups, and I, along with another pilot, was locked in a duel with a keeper. I do not know exactly what was happening in the other group, but eventually, just as the keeper was nearing defeat, the keepers from the other battle arrived. I can only assume that the fleet that was locked in the other battle was destroyed.
I began to flee along with a handful of survivors, but the combined assault of the 4 keepers was too much. My ship was destroyed, but luckily it was picked up by some traders watching nearby who quickly fled the scene.
It was total destruction. The capitals ships were all destroyed, with the exception of a few that fled. During the course of battle, reinforcements trickled in in the form of fighters,bombers, and even gunboats, but even that could not stop the keepers. Total destruction...
Right now I type this report from my hospital bed. The nurses whine about my bad condition, but I'm fine really, just some shrapnel here in there, mostly in my legs. I only wish they would serve more than synth paste...

' Wrote:TDL Dark pretty much hit the nail on the head..
I have been questioned for bringing out the San Francisco I feel that it was the correct desicion. I manged to draw a large amount of fire and we succesfully destroyed and damged most of the fleet before the San Fran fell.
I am now at Norfolk seeing to a reconstruction job. Estimated time to completion: 9 days.
The San Francisco will not be available for that time I'm afraid.
i have gathered information that after the main battles the remaining keepers retreated to the alaska gate were they were backed by an outcast destroyer, this destroyer was later engaged and destroyed by a bounty hunter battlecruiser. however the destroyer got the keepers enough time to retreat before its destruction.
unfortunatly i was in medbay being treated for radiation effects during the entire attack because of a reactor leak sustained during an earlier battle with a rouge.

Well, I'm always the last to know..
Ricky and Ammi, due to errors in judgement, bad decisions, and conduct unbefitting the TAZ and Zoners in general, you are hereby removed from the TAZ rolls. Please remove your FnordNet transponders and turn in your Principia Discordias and Pineal Amulets immediately.
If reparations to the Liberty Navy are required, they will need to submit an invoice to this channel. I am also willing to discuss full licensing for the TAZ in Liberty as a show of good faith.
If any other TAZ members are caught disobeying any Lawful House Factions, or violating their laws, they will be cashiered on the spot, and fed to the nearest Harvester Unit!

Duty report
Greetings. First day of work - first report.
I was sent to patrol California. Everything saw clear, but when I got to Cortez Jumpgate, I saw to vessels jumping.
Xerxes(I think) - Outcast IFF, Zoner ID, Bumblebee Transport. Cargo: Prisoners. 1 Turret.
You_Naughty_Infidels - Police IFF, Zoner ID, Civilian Bomber. Cargo: Prisoners. Armed with 2 Nomad Cannons and a Salamanca turret. Captain Malaign gave me permission to chase and fire on them. Though, I stucked for a bit at the gate. In NY, I proceeded to West Point. No trace of these two.
Suddenly, I heard someone saying 'Outcast landing on Manhattan'? I understood that these are two who I am chasing. I got to planet just when they undocked. And know what? They were carrying counterfeit software now! Just when a Naval pilot chases them! They both refused to drop their cargo. So, I had more then enough reasons to engage. While the TR was escaping via JumpGate, I opened fire on bomber. He proved to be one of the easiest opponents. Soon Captain Malaign arrived and took care of the transport, while I was in chase. Fight was long, though. Smuggler several times tried to escape, but my CDs were just in time. And finally, camera shot:

This is Willows speaking to all pilots of the Liberty Navy.
You all have propably heard of the rumors saying that we got our hands on Bretonian Military hardware, and as a matter of fact, those are true.
All details concerning this acquisition are classified under securtiy level Rho and only accessible by High Command.
Our R&D division on Willard Research Station was able to modify the weapons, 4-11b "Advanced Splitter" Tachyon Cannons, so they can be used on our LZF-9805, BDR-804, BDR-845 and XV-736 type fighter craft.
Unfortunately there currently is no way to modify the weapons for use on our XB-2 "Havoc Mk.II" Bombers, so those will be stuck with the default weaponry.
We will begin issuing out the weapons soon on a per-rank basis.
Due to the limited number of those weapons, High Command reserves the right to deny a member of the forces the use of those weapons at will.
We have also gotten our hands on forty CL-f "Flashpoint" Civilian Heavy Laser Cannons.
These are the latest development of Ageira Technologies, providing superior firepower and an extensive shiptype compatibility.
They will be issued out in similar fashion to the "Buckshot" Particle Blasters uncovered a few days ago, and serve as a replacement to the recipients "Vengeance" Laser Cannons.
Now that I've mentioned the "Buckshots", for those that do not know yet, two each have been given out to Lieutenant Mike Ypsilantis, Ensign Joe McTyre and Ensign Ryan MacTavish.
From what I've seen so far you three are now proeficent in the use of the weaponry, and I hope those guns will serve you well in the future.
