Evening, High Command. More computer problems have plagued the LNS-Indiana, so I have been spending my free time with computer technicians and what-not, trying to sort the problems out. This has been the main reason behind my lack of reports over the past couple of weeks.
Well, the day started off with a Zoner battleship, Peacekeeper-:-Elysium parking himself right outside Manhatten. When politely asking the Zoner to leave Liberty, because of his ship type, we were met with hostility. Captain Winston took command thereafter, but he didn't have much more luck in getting the Zoner to follow orders. Things started to escalate then when the Zoner started insulting the Liberty Navy and throwing threats around. After failing to follow orders to leave via the designated route, we were ordered to engage the target. The Battleship was no challenge for the might of the Liberty Navy, and Liberty was once again safe and secure.
I left a message for the Zoner's Council about the actions of this individual, here is the neural net link: --Message Link--
I'd like to bring it to the Council's attention that an Admiral of your, commanding the Peacekeeper-:-Elysium, has been convicted of the following crimes in Liberty:
Bringing an unauthorised battleship-class vessel into Liberty
Failing to follow Liberty Navy orders to leave Liberty, due to the fact he had a foreign battleship
Insulting Navy officers
Creating public hysteria by creating doubt about the law-enforcing ability of the Liberty Navy
Due to his failure to follow orders, his Battlestar Advanced was destroyed. We apologise to the Council for the loss of weapons, equipment and cargo on board the battleship, but it was necessary to ensure the safety and security of Liberty.
Since then, he has acquired another battleship and has returned to Liberty, once again pestering our forces and continuing to disobey orders. We'd prefer not to endanger the lives of the crew onboard the Peacekeeper, but if it comes down to it we will have to destroy it again.
We, the Liberty Navy, must insist you take disciplinary action on the Admiral in question.
Respectfully,
Lt. Commander Malrone

**Connection Terminated**
During the incident with the Zoner, we also had a run-in with a Rhienland Military gunboat who was trespassing in Zone-21. [RSO]Blackhand~Nassau was intercepted by myself and Captain Gafwmn leaving the secure zone. Apparently he was on a mission to New York to arrest Captain Winston. I told him there wasn't a chance in hell of that happening, and he must have got offended by that comment because he engaged me soon afterwards. Needless to say, my bomber and Gafwmn's Battlecruiser were too much for the lone gunboat, and the security threat was neutralised.
After dealing with the issues in New York, I was tasked a few missions in Texas and I remained there for the bulk of the working day.
I'm also glad to report that all of my ships (Avenger, Havok and Gunboat) have Liberty Guard IFF status.
