[color=#000000]I m back with good and bad news. The good news are, we have new group with the Name Shaulancas Squardon. I dont know about this people, but they are the right people with good weapons.
Now the bad news. The Gallic Royal Navy is gathering the forces to attack something. I guess they want attack the Tau Systems to destroy everything.
I took a long time to get this infomations.
Another part the Coalition Army is really active. Yep and they are requesting help by the next unkown group. TCG or whatever to fight against the Bounty Hunters. The TCG is group of Rouge Order Pilots and Captians. With the goal to destroy every Nomad or infested people in the whole Sirius.
A big goal, but without chances.
Next Message is really good.
Chavez and Cid continue the jobs. With a good perfomence, they destroyed three Outcast Dreadnoughts in a low armored Osiris.
Chandelier is the name of the Osiris. Well the old Name of our Outcast Battleship was Chandelier too.
I guess they found the Wreck in the Omicron-64 System and stolen the technology from the Ship.
I must say its still the old Sirius. With the Wars, Terrorist, Pirats, Militarie and Dumpheads.
[color=#000000]Was a wonderful first day on the Freeport-1. With drinks, drunken Corsairs and some Hessians. The Bar is destroyed the Corsairs jailed and Hessians are now in a Dromedary to the Ronneburg Station.
By the way, was a wonderful show.
Now the my main problem.
I need a new ship. I lost my Battlecruiser by the Tau-37 Battle against four Destroyers and too many Bombers.
Maybe a Red Hessian Cruiser? I dont know, I must talk to my friends on the Red Hessian Base Vogtland.
The next, the Destroyer Drone is still sending some pictures to my Neural-Net Adress.
One of my favorite Pictures:
Oh and The_Joker have still a problem with some Zoners.
Chavez: Hey Cid, what do you think now?
Cid: One moment. I hate the escape pod.
Chavez: Dont worry I marked the Scrapfield to repair our ship.
Cid: I will declear the war to the Zoners. They attacked us with so many ships. I dont believe, I thought the Zoners are Neutral or not?
Chavez: True, they attacked us with two thousands ship and why? For a Spylcass, to protect a Spyclass.
Cid: Not really Neutral. I hope the Zoners burn. Give me the Bottle Water.
Chavez: So boring. Okay, we will ask an old girlfriend.
Cid: Lisa?
Chavez: Right.
Cid: Well thats maybe the end but the best way.
<span style="font-size:18pt;line-height:100%]If I see only a one Zoner on Corsair Area. I will burn this ship without big words.
[color=#000000]The Corsairs are working on the destruction of the Zoner Alliance.
The TAZ and the OSI, splitted up from the Zoner Alliance Trash. But the Corsairs still attack the Freeport-9 and the Zoners in Omicron-74.
I had never the chance to destroy so many Zoner toys. I will call this "The Zoner-Corsair-War with a bad end".
With some help from Cid and Chavez. We mounted the new SWBM(Shock Wave Ballistics Missile) on the Chandelier.
I hope they will shootdown everthing with this.
Its the big version, the perfect present for the Zoners.
I will say only one word, Boom.
Currently Status of the Omicrons and Omegas: Unstable. Its a powderkedge and no chance for many civilians.
The Coalition will try to say "The Great Starvation of the Corsair Empire". The Coalition can lick my Chococlate side.*Cough* Stupid Propaganda. The Cool thing only the Burns and some indepndet Captians are fighting against Corsairs. The TAZ is watching this.
Luck for the TAZ they are too far away from the Omegas. I know about the Baffin Homesystem.

""Following the First Battle of the Atlantic, by 1915 Britain was in desperate need of a countermeasure against the U-boats that were strangling her sea-lanes. Convoys, which had proved effective in earlier times (and would again prove effective during the Second World War), were rejected by the resource-strapped Admiralty and the independent captains. Depth charges of the time were relatively primitive, and almost the only chance of sinking a submarine was by gunfire or by ramming while on the surface. The problem was luring the U-boat to the surface.
A solution to this was the creation of the Q-ship, one of the most closely-guarded secrets of the war. Their codename referred to the vessels' home port, Queenstown, in Ireland[1]. These became known by the Germans as a U-Boot-Falle ("U-boat trap"). A Q-ship would appear to be an easy target, but in fact carried hidden armaments. A typical Q-ship might resemble a tramp steamer sailing alone in an area where a U-boat was reported to be operating. By seeming to be a suitable target for the U-boat's deck gun, a Q-ship might encourage the U-boat captain to make a surface attack rather than use one of his limited number of torpedoes. The Q-ships' cargoes were light wood (balsa or cork) or wooden caskets, and even if torpedoed they would remain afloat, encouraging the U-boat to surface and sink them with a deck gun. The crew might even pretend to "abandon ship". Once the U-boat was vulnerable, the Q-ship's panels would drop to reveal the deck guns, which would immediately open fire. At the same time, the White Ensign (Royal Navy flag) would be raised. With the element of surprise, a U-boat could be quickly overwhelmed.
The first Q-ship victory was on 23 June 1915, when U-40 was sunk off Eyemouth by the submarine HMS C24, cooperating with the decoy vessel Taranaki, commanded by Lieutenant Frederick Henry Taylor CBE DSC RN. The first victory by an unassisted Q-ship came on 24 July 1915 when the Prince Charles, commanded by Lt Mark-Wardlaw, DSO, sank U-36. The civilian crew of Prince Charles received a cash award. The following month, an even smaller converted fishing trawler renamed HM Armed Smack Inverlyon successfully destroyed UB-4 near Great Yarmouth. Inverlyon was an unpowered sailing ship fitted with a small 3 pounder (47 mm) gun. The British crew fired 9 rounds from the 3 pounder into U-4 at close range, sinking her with the loss of all hands despite the attempt of Inverlyon's skipper to rescue one surviving German submariner.
On August 19, 1915 Lieutenant Godfrey Herbert RN of the HMS Baralong sank U-27, which was preparing to attack a nearby merchant ship. About a dozen of the U-boat sailors survived and swam towards the merchant ship. Herbert, allegedly fearing that they might scuttle her, ordered the survivors to be shot in the water and sent a boarding party to kill all who had made it aboard. This became known as the "Baralong Incident".
HMS Farnborough (Q-5) sank SM U-68 on 22 March 1916. Her commander, Gordon Campbell, was awarded the VC.
Lieutenant-Commander William Edward Sanders VC, DSO, a New Zealander commanding HMS Prize, was awarded the Victoria Cross for an action on 30 April 1917 with U-93, which was severely damaged. Sanders waited, while his ship sustained heavy shellfire, until the submarine was within 80 yards, whereupon he hoisted the White Ensign and the Prize opened fire. The submarine appeared to sink and he claimed a victory. However, the badly damaged submarine managed to struggle back to port. With his ship accurately described by the survivors of U-93, Sanders and his crewmen were all killed in action when they attempted a surprise attack on U-43 on 14 August 1917.
In a total of 150 engagements, British Q-ships destroyed 14 U-boats and damaged 60, at a cost of 27 Q-ships lost out of 200. Q-ships were responsible for about 10% of all U-boats sunk, ranking them well below the use of ordinary minefields in effectiveness.
The Imperial German Navy commissioned six Q-boats during the Great War for the Baltic Sea into the Handelsschutzflottille. Both were unsuccessful in destroying any enemy submarines. The famous Möwe and Wolf were Merchant raiders.""
I read this and created my own Ship.
A old Junker Salvager Frigate for Liberty and another nation.
My personaly Q-Ship. A little secret.
Most of the time we are collecting infomations from Navy Capital Ships.
But we had our first battle too. Against a Battlecruiser.
The pictures here are from a Liberty Battleship.
The Fight was not really hard against a Battlecruiser. Easy target for everyone. But the Light Mortars were a little bit dangerous.
I will send some datas to the MND Rheiland with a false ID and name.
