Covert Recon Report - LN/RM/Auxo meeting in Hudson
While on a stealth recon patrol this morning through Texas and the Liberty/Rheinland border worlds, I happened upon a meeting occuring near Manitoba Station between the Liberty Navy 46th Fleet and Rheinland Military. While on its own this wouldn't strike me as anything particularly strange, the attendance of the the Auxesian 'Revenant' piqued my curiosity. Also of note was the attendance of two Liberty Osiris class battleships, the LNX-Akhetaten and LNS-Anchorage, two additional Liberty secondary capitols, two Rheinland Military capitols and a snub, and lastly the meeting was also attended by a freelancer 'Offensive.Vector'.
Despite the publicly declared hostility between the Auxeasians and Liberty government, and the simultaneous presence of four Liberty capitol ships, no attempt was made by the Libertonians to apprehend or detain 'Revenant' at any point that I could observe. They all seemed fairly cordial with each other.
Unfortunately I was not able to intercept their entire conversation, I needed to retreat to Barrow Base multiple times to recharge and cool my cloaking device. A lone Rogue also interrupted the meeting, which inhibited my intelligence gathering effort. What I was able to record is attached below. I'm not sure if any of it is at all useful, but I'll leave that for the data-crunchers and Wedjat to decide.
My cloaking device is starting to act up after the prolonged and repeated use on this patrol. I'll take the long way back through Liberty space to the Battleship Atum in Galileo for repairs.

[11.12.2022 03:28:19] A/)-Revenant: ...also Unioners aren't even illegal anymore anyhow.
[11.12.2022 03:28:43] Offensive.Vector: I can understand, Rheinland Officers, of your justified questioning, but this was, a bit far-fetched in my opinion.
[11.12.2022 03:28:59] RNC-Sabaton: RO: Right. Some of us still remember them being pests. Old habits die hard.
[11.12.2022 03:29:01] Offensive.Vector: I did feel a bit threatened. The rest of the crew as well. And Karl.
[11.12.2022 03:29:08] [RM]Obl-Trau.Habermeyer: Depends on the Unioner, really...
[11.12.2022 03:29:38] RNC-Sabaton: RO: We would not fire upon your vessel, Freelancer. We understand that you're not alone in there.
[11.12.2022 03:29:40] Offensive.Vector: These Zoners, not even a greetings.
[11.12.2022 03:29:52] A/)-Revenant: There was a Unioner trying to attack the Anchorage not too long ago.
[11.12.2022 03:29:53] Offensive.Vector: Would you open fire if I was alone?
[11.12.2022 03:29:59] Offensive.Vector: *chuckles*
[11.12.2022 03:30:06] RNC-Sabaton: RO: We would leave the matter at hand to Raeren-actual. Should you have any suspicious personalities on board, -
[11.12.2022 03:30:13] RNC-Sabaton: -they would perform manual inspection.
[11.12.2022 03:30:29] Offensive.Vector: Feel free to come on-board. You'll find a mostly-empty ship.
[11.12.2022 03:30:32] RNC-Sabaton: RO: There are civil ways to solve these sorts of issues.
[11.12.2022 03:30:56] Offensive.Vector: On-board AI: Current crew number: Under 10.
[11.12.2022 03:31:01] Death: SadeasMisogyni suffered a self-inflicted catastrophic decompression.
[11.12.2022 03:31:25] Offensive.Vector: I should make it not broadcast on the same radio as I.
[11.12.2022 03:31:31] 46th|LNX-Akhetaten: Uhmen: That Unioner was shooting the Akhetaten since way before attacking the Anchorage, Revenant. He was a fan-
[11.12.2022 03:31:38] 46th|LNX-Akhetaten: -of both Osiris classes.
[11.12.2022 03:31:56] A/)-Revenant: You do seem to attract all kinds of ... hmhmmm... unique... individuals.
[11.12.2022 03:31:56] RNC-Sabaton: RO: Were we alone in this situation - as alone as we can be, anyway - you'd still be manually checked.
[11.12.2022 03:32:07] Offensive.Vector: Oh, I haven't even picked up. Huh. Two Osiris-class vessels now. Operating in the same fleet.
[11.12.2022 03:32:31] A/)-Revenant: That would be the fourth active Osiris in the Liberty force's service.
[11.12.2022 03:32:42] A/)-Revenant: Or, no, that other one defected again, but went to the Insurgency.
[11.12.2022 03:32:45] [RM]KKS-Raeren: So far there has been no reason to enter Offensive.Vector's ship
[11.12.2022 03:32:51] Offensive.Vector: So, Liberty is using their good old blueprints from the past.
[11.12.2022 03:33:32] Offensive.Vector: I would've expected the Osiris-class to be replaced, or be the framework of a new class, instead of being tied indirectly to-
[11.12.2022 03:33:35] Offensive.Vector: The Order.
[11.12.2022 03:33:46] Offensive.Vector: I find this decision, quite odd, but it's merely my opinion.
[Temporarily retreated to recharge cloak]
[11.12.2022 03:37:09] A/)-Revenant: If I am suppose to have pity for those who have murdered countless innocents, cheat, lie, backstab, and destroy the
[11.12.2022 03:37:14] A/)-Revenant: foundations of science - you are solely mistaken.
[11.12.2022 03:37:24] A/)-Revenant: Also they support the Corsairs, they deserve every bit of it.
[11.12.2022 03:37:27] Offensive.Vector: I just mentioned that it is similar.
[11.12.2022 03:37:48] RNC-Sabaton: RO: Come again, Revenant?
[11.12.2022 03:37:57] A/)-Revenant: Your comrades have seen it in Xi.
[11.12.2022 03:38:01] A/)-Revenant: The Order supports the Corsairs.
[11.12.2022 03:38:03] Offensive.Vector: The Murmillo-class dreadnought.
[11.12.2022 03:38:07] RNC-Sabaton: RO: Interesting.
[11.12.2022 03:38:08] A/)-Revenant: More than that.
[11.12.2022 03:38:29] A/)-Revenant: The Order has no self restraint, blinded by paranoia and hatred.
[11.12.2022 03:38:33] Offensive.Vector: I think your phrasing should be in the past tense, Revenant, no?
[11.12.2022 03:38:37] A/)-Revenant: No.
[11.12.2022 03:38:44] A/)-Revenant: It is current.
[11.12.2022 03:38:58] Offensive.Vector: Hmm. Once again, you learn new things everyday.
[11.12.2022 03:39:12] Offensive.Vector: On-board AI: Continuing addition to mainframe's database.
[11.12.2022 03:39:22] [RM]KKS-Raeren: Correct, they have been support Corsairs in battles against us.
[11.12.2022 03:39:32] Offensive.Vector: Huh.
[11.12.2022 03:39:34] A/)-Revenant: "Saviour of Humanity."
[11.12.2022 03:39:34] A/)-Revenant: Bah.
[11.12.2022 03:39:41] A/)-Revenant: The old Order was respectful.
[11.12.2022 03:39:43] [RM]Obl-Trau.Habermeyer: Frankfurt... for instance. Been a while, but i remember that one.
[11.12.2022 03:39:52] Offensive.Vector: I believe they are doing this against their rivals, the Core.
[11.12.2022 03:39:56] RNC-Sabaton: RO: Noted.
[11.12.2022 03:39:56] A/)-Revenant: These new ones are but war-mongers, they hold no difference from the Core.
[11.12.2022 03:39:58] Offensive.Vector: Out of maybe desperation.
[11.12.2022 03:40:12] Offensive.Vector: They will only annihilate each other, eventually.
[11.12.2022 03:40:21] RNC-Sabaton: RO: Well, whatever they do in the Omicrons is none of our concern.
[11.12.2022 03:40:28] [RM]KKS-Raeren: I disagree, the victor will just replace the loser.
[11.12.2022 03:40:34] Offensive.Vector: Rheinland borders the Omicrons, don't they?
[11.12.2022 03:40:34] A/)-Revenant: You will find that they do indeed act within the Houses.
[11.12.2022 03:40:36] RNC-Sabaton: RO: Unless their activites somehow unleash the Nomads upon Rheinland.
[11.12.2022 03:40:48] A/)-Revenant: Allow me to illuminate something to you.
[11.12.2022 03:40:53] A/)-Revenant: The Order backs the Xenos.
[11.12.2022 03:40:59] Offensive.Vector: ....
[11.12.2022 03:41:01] [RM]Obl-Trau.Habermeyer: ... ahm. Mhmhm. A third one...?
[11.12.2022 03:41:11] 46th|LNX-Akhetaten: Uhmen: An unexpected visit.
[11.12.2022 03:41:13] [RM]KKS-Raeren: Guten Tag there!
[11.12.2022 03:41:15] RNC-Sabaton: RO: Interesting. Do you have any substantial proof to provide, Revenant?
[11.12.2022 03:41:15] Offensive.Vector: What makes you say that, Revenant?
[11.12.2022 03:41:31] A/)-Revenant: Observation.
[11.12.2022 03:41:41] A/)-Revenant: As well as experience.
[11.12.2022 03:41:53] A/)-Revenant: It isn't unusual for the Order to have underground connections everywhere.
[11.12.2022 03:41:58] A/)-Revenant: Likewise for most parties.
[11.12.2022 03:42:02] RNC-Sabaton: RO: Hm. Well, perhaps we'll need something more than that to make it official.
[11.12.2022 03:42:12] A/)-Revenant: Oh, I have plenty of imagery.
[11.12.2022 03:42:22] A/)-Revenant: As well as personal experience of being attacked by them.
[11.12.2022 03:42:43] RNC-Sabaton: RO: Please, do provide them to the Oberkommando. I believe our Libertonian colleagues will be invested, as well.
[Temporarily retreated to recharge cloak]
[11.12.2022 03:46:32] RNC-Sabaton: RO: Relay it to Rheinland Military Oberkommando. I believe our Libertonian colleagues would want to know about this, too.
[11.12.2022 03:46:37] 46th|LNS-Anchorage: Kemp-Smith: As a Fleet Admiral, that is very unlikely to happen.
[11.12.2022 03:46:52] A/)-Revenant: Mm. I will attach your name as a point of reference for ... well, referencing.
[11.12.2022 03:46:57] 46th|LNS-Anchorage: Kemp-Smith: We can open a secure channel if there's something you wish to privately discuss now?
[11.12.2022 03:47:19] RNC-Sabaton: RO: Contact.
[11.12.2022 03:47:21] 46th|LNX-Akhetaten: Uhmen: Of course I would indulge in any intelligence regarding the matter.
[11.12.2022 03:47:28] [RM]KKS-Raeren: I'm sure you can... Anomaly spotted!
[11.12.2022 03:47:31] 46th|LNS-Anchorage: Kemp-Smith: Very well. Standing by.
[11.12.2022 03:47:33] RNC-Sabaton: RO: Ah, a single Bloodhound.
[11.12.2022 03:47:54] [RM]KKS-Raeren: Guten tag there!
[11.12.2022 03:48:30] [RM]KKS-Raeren: Halt bitte
[11.12.2022 03:48:31] Liberty.Rogue!: Eh?
[Section Removed - Unimportant banter between Rogue and attending forces. Following sections curated to remove irrelevant combat chatter.]
[11.12.2022 04:01:43] RNC-Sabaton: RO: Translation - the Freelancer wants some quick buck for shooting down a rogue.
[11.12.2022 04:01:48] Offensive.Vector: And a recommendation of making a contract to preemptively be ready to get rid of a terrorist?
[11.12.2022 04:02:08] RNC-Sabaton: RO: I believe it is handled.
[11.12.2022 04:02:25] Offensive.Vector: Actually, it is more of an opinion question, and the fee was low, and more of a symbolic one.
[11.12.2022 04:02:40] Offensive.Vector: Just to enter the laws of being a Freelancer, and not anger The Powers That Be.
[11.12.2022 04:02:42] RNC-Sabaton: RO: Shall it get out of control, our allies can retreat to us.
[11.12.2022 04:02:49] 46th|LNX-Akhetaten: Uhmen: Please, do continue, I am most interested.
[11.12.2022 04:03:06] RNC-Sabaton: RO: I would not speak of -them-, Freelancer.
[11.12.2022 04:03:11] RNC-Sabaton: RO: Best not to mention.
[11.12.2022 04:03:24] Offensive.Vector: I am referring to the Houses' Police.
[11.12.2022 04:03:34] Offensive.Vector: And the Houses themselves.
[11.12.2022 04:03:58] Offensive.Vector: At least one similar organization has already angered a House.
[Temporarily retreated to recharge cloak]
[11.12.2022 04:10:31] [RM]Obl-Trau.Habermeyer: Hold on .... when did a _fourth_ Navy capital turn up here?
[11.12.2022 04:11:53] 46th|LNX-Akhetaten: Uhmen: I am as confused by the Secondary Fleet ships as you are, Oberleutnant.
[11.12.2022 04:11:59] 46th|LNS-Anchorage: Kemp-Smith: Akhetaten-actual, you have command. I need to relay a communications via Manitoba.
[11.12.2022 04:12:05] 46th|LNX-Akhetaten: Uhmen: We did not request backup.
[11.12.2022 04:12:08] Offensive.Vector: AI: Suggestion: Addition of 2.38 personnel to up the personnel at <redacted>, for a nominaly fighting competency.
[11.12.2022 04:12:16] 46th|LNS-Anchorage: Kemp-Smith: Do as you see fit with the Secondary Fleet vessels present.
[11.12.2022 04:12:23] 46th|LNX-Akhetaten: Uhmen: Orders received and acknowledged Fleet Admiral, sir.
[11.12.2022 04:12:25] 2022-12-11 04:12:23 SMT Traffic control alert: Akubra has requested to dock
[11.12.2022 04:12:27] Offensive.Vector: Uh. AI, where would I get 0.38 of someone?
[11.12.2022 04:12:35] 46th|LNS-Anchorage: Kemp-Smith: To everyone else, I bid you a good evening.
[11.12.2022 04:12:48] RNC-Sabaton: RO: Safe skies, Fleet Admiral.
[11.12.2022 04:12:49] Offensive.Vector: Goodbye, Anchorage actual.
[11.12.2022 04:12:53] 46th|LNS-Anchorage: Kemp-Smith: Manitoba, Anchorage-actual. Requesting permission to moor, over.
[11.12.2022 04:12:55] [RM]Obl-Trau.Habermeyer: Auf Wiedersehen, sir. A good evening.
[11.12.2022 04:13:01] 2022-12-11 04:12:59 SMT Traffic control alert: Redback has requested to dock
[11.12.2022 04:13:08] [RM]KKS-Raeren: Gute Nacht!
[11.12.2022 04:13:10] A/)-Revenant: A shockingly more respectful Fleet Admiral than the others.
[11.12.2022 04:13:16] 2022-12-11 04:13:13 SMT Traffic control alert: 46th|LNS-Anchorage has requested to dock
[11.12.2022 04:13:33] RNC-Sabaton: RO: Perhaps, Liberty has re-evaluated its standards.
[11.12.2022 04:13:47] [RM]Obl-Trau.Habermeyer: First one i met in person. You are... alright, by the way? I must've missed that, should you have mentioned it earlier Revenant
[11.12.2022 04:13:55] A/)-Revenant: Sadly, some fanatics still exist.
[11.12.2022 04:14:04] A/)-Revenant: Van Leer's army of demented meerkats.
[11.12.2022 04:14:12] Offensive.Vector: On-board AI: The standards have been estimated to have fallen, since 800 A.S., by around <50%>.
[11.12.2022 04:14:17] RNC-Sabaton: RO: Every military has its own fanatics. It's inevitable.
[11.12.2022 04:14:23] A/)-Revenant: Quite.
[11.12.2022 04:15:02] Offensive.Vector: AI: The Nomad War affected most. <Secondary Fleets>, second, as most probable reason for Liberty's power to have reduced.
[11.12.2022 04:15:12] Offensive.Vector: AI: Thirdly, conflicts with <Gallia>.
[11.12.2022 04:15:38] A/)-Revenant: Habermeyer, I'm well, but I won't survive another jump from undesirables.
[11.12.2022 04:15:58] A/)-Revenant: I was concerned for your wellfare in that fight, but it seemed he hardly dented you.
[11.12.2022 04:15:58] Offensive.Vector: Okay, okay, shut up not. "<mute openspeech>"
[11.12.2022 04:16:14] [RM]KKS-Raeren: Trau has been practicing a lot
[11.12.2022 04:16:38] A/)-Revenant: Good to see improvements.
[11.12.2022 04:16:40] [RM]KKS-Raeren: Wish all our pilots have been as motivated as her
[11.12.2022 04:16:40] [RM]Obl-Trau.Habermeyer: I am touched by that concern, but .... i was alright for the most part. Indeed.
[11.12.2022 04:17:14] [RM]Obl-Trau.Habermeyer: Means we'll keep another jump like that from happening.
[Section Removed - Unimportant banter about the Liberty Rogue.]
[11.12.2022 04:23:16] Offensive.Vector: Goodbye.
[11.12.2022 04:23:45] Offensive.Vector: Revenant, before you do any odd things, don't forget that we need to talk in private. It should be quick, no?
[11.12.2022 04:23:58] A/)-Revenant: Perhaps.
[11.12.2022 04:24:25] 46th|LNX-Akhetaten: Uhmen: "Odd things"?
[11.12.2022 04:24:28] Offensive.Vector: We are unable, and unwilling, to communicate via the Neural Net for reasons we won't disclose openly.
[11.12.2022 04:24:43] A/)-Revenant: As it appears, I tend to attract the unusual.
[11.12.2022 04:24:48] A/)-Revenant: Unintentionally, might I add.
