Kadett Graff here:
I have returned to service after my ship got repaired, and beginned my patrol on New Berlin system.
After some time scanning passing ships incoming from Hamburg and monitoring trade lanes scan, i have detected an Unioner (Gunda Riel) in Sttutgart system. While i was enroute there, 3 more unioners joined her, exiting lanes(Kaperschiff, Leich Traktor, Abomination). As the treath increased, ive tried to call reinforcements, but it seems my comm systems arent ok, as i cant reach answer, so i decided to go on alone.
Before i get at last known location of Unioners, Gunda Riel (who seemed to be leader of group, as appeared first always) entered a trade lane in Dresden System, so i made it back from my way, then again, before i reach destination, Gunda conected a lane, this time in Frankfurt system.
When i get there, patrolled immediations of TaunusFeld for some time, and on course of those patrol, fighted some skirmishes with low-grade Hessian and Unioner pilots, who i quicly tractored to cargo hold. Giving up hope of find Riel and his crownies, i decided to deliver pilots direcly to Vierlande Prison, Enroute to aforementioned station, a small group of (low-grade)Bundschuh pilots intercepted me, and joined the other unlawfuls in hold.
Ive dropped 12 Hessian, 5 Unioners and 4 Bundschuh pilots to Vierlande, then returned to New Berlin to fill this report and take some rest
But before i retire, i need to make note of my concern: thats the second time in two days that same group of Unioners take a walk in Rheinland space unnoposed. Last time i have been assured that BDM was taking the matter in his hands, today, i cant even contact them on comm channels, im just a Kadett, so maybe im worrying too much, but may the comm failure be some kind of sabotage from Unioners?
