Guten tag, Wachmann Laura Carsten hier. Time for paperwork again. Let´s make it quick and brief, it´s annoy...time consuming. So, the first event I should mention was AI cruiser which appeared near planet New Berlin day before Christmas Day. When I arrived there from Hamburg per request for assistance, fähnrich Reims and kadett Dermen were already there dealing with this machine flying close to our capital planet. It also turned out it has onboard some ammo from nomad weapons, probably from destroyed nomad ships. We ordered it to drop this contraband what it did and then destroyed it himself. Fortunately AI cruiser was cooperating and when claimed he needs to go to Omega-3 to hunt pirates, we started to escort it out of Rheinland this way. But later fähnrich Reims reported that in Omega-7 it engaged cloaking device. Uploading scans and record...
We couldn´t witness or help at that moment because unfortunately our escort was broken with another event and we had to split. Fähnrich Reims continued with machine cruiser...these things scares me, to be honest...while me and kadett stopped after jumping into Stuttgart system to investigate LWB fighter piloted by some Annike.Eckfeld, which started to follow us few minutes before in New Berlin. During investigation pilot asked "donation to them" for passing through "their Stuttgart system" from us, what sounded very like piracy. But later she claimed she will not harm us if we won´t pay anything and started discussion about that best laws would be laws made by god. Ja, ja, strange, crazy, named it like you want. But before we could try to arrest her, things started to get complicated. Unioner Ulrich Koch with fighter appeared there and he didn´t seem to be very friendly towards us. Then we got reinforcement made by detektiv Steiner, but also another Unioner Lukas Olaf appeared as well in almost same time. Then fähnrich Reims arrived back to our position too.
After few minutes of talking, detektiv Steiner tried to avoid massive battle with attempt to persuade enemies to leave the place peacefully, but he succeded only with LWB pilot, Unioners with insults opened fire. Unfortunately, despite also secondary fleet military pilot Wolfgang Weber arrived to scene too, happened what I was afraid of if fight will start - both enemies targeted my ship, very probably as the biggest and least agile ship on our side. I tried my best to dodge and yet fire too, but because other were for quite long time unable to shoot any of hostiles down, they damaged my ship too heavily so I had to eject my escape pod. Uploading scans and parts of record which were retrieved from wreck...
And now, how could I make report without at least one smuggler, right? So this one was quite big and dangerous fish. I was during patrol in front of planet New Berlin when junker luxury liner named Killed_by_Death - strange name, isn´t it? - undocked from The Ring with 4000 cargo units of black market munitions. I ordered him to stop but he didn´t comply and even answered me that I have "last chance to run". Few moments later I had to open fire and tough battle started. Pilot of the ship as well as gunners were quite skilled so I had hard times to keep my ship dodging incoming fire and hit the well maneuvering liner.
For this reason I decided to call for reinforcements and fortunately detektiv Meister was able to respond and quickly launch with his bomber. Before he arrived, we thrusted while firing over whole New Berlin system to Dresden jump hole, but shortly after we jumped, detektiv joined the fight and polizei side finally got upper hand, despite some problem with bomber torpedos´ targeting. Anyway, not far from Omega-11 jump hole, my mini razor shot finally blew the smuggler´s ship up. But I should stress that I couldn´t be able to take him down without detektiv´s help with ship carrying appropriate firepower for enemy ship of this size and armament. Uploading record...

Paperwork must wait obviously. Illegal base in Omega-7 which I wanted to mention now is obviously defended by Corsair bombers and military capital fleet which had to attack it need some snub support out there. I will continue later. Carsten signing off for now!
