DELIVERING MESSAGE...
Gut Evening dear Oberkommando.,
from yesterday evening on I can count myself lucke enough to be alive. The patrol through the Vaterland was really deadly even for a Polizei officer. But one by one to the incidents that happened
01: Intercepting a Civilian hauling military vehicles
Using TLAG-sensors I encountered a vessel carrying military vehicles in Frankfurt. I stopped the Bactrian freighter who had no permission to transport these restricted goods. As I ordered him to drop the cargo he openeed fire on me and tried to flee. As a result I had to engage him and destroy his vessel. Cargo-Scan ID-Signal Weapon-Scan Evidence of destruction
02: Smuggler hauling contraband
Resuming patrol the use of TLAG-sensors was really usefull another time when the sensors showed a vessel carrying counterfeit software through Frankfurt to New Berlin. With support of the Rheinwehr gunboat RNC-Braunhaus the violator dropped the contraband for destruction and payed the fine of 2.500.000 SC that I levied. I have already forwarded this sum to the Arsenal, meine Damen and Herren. TLAG-scan Direct cargo scan Receiving the fine and forwarding it.
03: Reports of pirate activity in New Berlin:
Just a few minutes later the we received a distress call from a trader about pirate activity in our main system. The RNC-Braunhaus set course to intercept the pirate named Phaselis but it was me who spotted the pirate trying to engage a trader near Dortmund station. At first he claimed to shoot a smuggler but the trader was carrying superconductors. Thus I ordered the pirate to cease fire and leave Rheinland. He refused and engaged me. The result of it was the destruction of the pirate's ship, but I was forced to let my ship repair and rearm at Dortmund station. I even lost two of my guns due to this fight.

04: Wilde terrorising Stuttgart during Liberty incursion
After a while during my patrol the TLAG-sensors showed liberty vessels in Hamburg while I patroled Stuttgart. I tried to inform the Rheinwehr while continuing patrol. During this I met a Rheinwehr recruit telling me of Rheinwehr soldiers that were acting rather strange and that his scanners showed something he got frightened of. At first I was sure that the Walker nebular in Omega-7 had disrupted his sensors, but later on I should learn that the recruit was right.
Quote:[RFP]Thomas.Wolthers.: Greetings, Max.von.Armin
Max.von.Armin: There are some strange ships in Omega 7... Seemed like Military, but... I'm not sure
[RFP]Thomas.Wolthers.: Strange?
[RFP]Thomas.Wolthers.: What do you mean?
Max.von.Armin: There was something about them that didn't seem right
[RFP]Thomas.Wolthers.: Can you describe it a bit better?
[RFP]Thomas.Wolthers.: The Walker nebula in Omega-7 sometimes disturbs our scanners
Max.von.Armin: Yeah, I don't know... Maybe it was nothing
Max.von.Armin: Anyways... I must leave for Dresden
[RFP]Thomas.Wolthers.: Hmm, I will have a look if I meet them
[RFP]Thomas.Wolthers.: Verstanden, safe flight, Kadett
After some time a Polizei officer named Donar claimed that Wilde would be in Stuttgart. I was not quite sure about this but I had to investigate it. Soon after we found two Rheinwehr officers intercepting an innocent trader carrying fertilizers to planet Stuttgart. We had a talke with these Rheinwehr soldiers. They claimed to be on a secret mission and that the fertilizers should be confiscated. I had a doubt about this, because... it just were fertilizers. The freelancer, a fellow Rheinlander, was not violating any laws by this time.
Meanwhile officer Isidor Kugelblitz arrived on the scene.
This is the whole communication report of the encounter up to the point where I activated weapons:

Officer Donar and I fought the Rheinwehr units and officer Kugelblitz assisted us later on. During this fight a pirate joined he Rheinwehr units while a pilot of the Red Hessians fought along our side.
Meanwhile I was able to get a scan of at least one Rheinwehr unit. Officer Donar was right all the time, these two pilots were part of das Wilde: scanresults
I have to admit that we were not able to destroy the Wilde ships. Officer Donar's bomber was shot down and offier Kugelblitz had to retreat while I covered him. Due to this both Wilde ships harrassed me near the jumpgate to New Berlin, and I had to use all my skill to make a hasty retreat to Battleship Karlsruhe. The gunners ofthe battleship assisted me and das Wilde was forced to retreat for now, but not without threatening to destroy the next trading vessel. As I was my mjolnir was in bad shape. my ammunition on a critical level and me being exhausted from this fight, I could only warn all vessels in Stuttgart about das Wilde:

I took my damaged Mjolnir to Ulm Border station and let the current Oberkommandierende of the station make a system wide announcement about das Wilde.
Right now I am still on Ulm to supervise any in and outgoing traffice in Stuttgart while my Mjolnir is being repaired.
If you have any further questions, and I am really sure you have, dear Oberkommando, tell me.
