First of all, I would like to say it's an honor to work with you. Now, we will send you extracts from reports that are connected to the operation that is undergoing in Coronado. This is the first extras:
After a brief report about our mission I took this ship in a patrol, just to feel its engines again. Our main objective, Planet Jericho, which emits some sort of radiation is our main objective, so I set a patrol route around that area. On my route, I've met some IMS ships that were there "for training". They were using Outcast drones to do that so I decided to move on because they are not a problem. Also, I've captured this magnificent image of Coronado. Well, that's about all for now. Someone should send this report to the ICMG too.

Jack appears on screen, Lily standing off to the back, staring out of the window. Through the window, you can make out what looks like the Unakite, with the Selkner's signature lighting, in a shipyard, being repaired.
"You know, I dont like seeing my ship in a dock. It means I screwed up. It means Lily screwed up. It means my cew screwed up." He sighs. "But, this time, I didn't screw up. I didn't make a mistake. No-one on the Unakite did. We were hit blind, my friends. And, you know...I think I like it even less than screwing up."
He turns around, looking at the Unakite being slowly repaired by the mechanical array.
"Im afraid whatever did this is not something to be taken lightly. It's not something to ignore. Im going to upload a few video files, for all ICMG pilots to see. Perhaps we can glean something from them."
He walks over to a console, near the window. He presses a button.

**You see an image of Jericho's surface, apparently a feed froma probe's camera. It's gently loweed into the atmosphere, before reaching neutral gavity with it's tether. As it begins to zoom in on what appears to be the wreck, a glow is seen to the right. Seconds later, there's a deafening, whooshing sound. The probe begins to careen downwards, the image jerking around violently. As the camera spins upward, a small, triangular object flies by***

"This next one was taken right before the Unakite began to blow apart. We have just evidence to believe it was the cause."

**It's a view of the Unakite's hull, pointed towards the engines. You see a similar object, triangular and mettalic, float past. A few seconds later, it turns towards the camera, seemingly focusing and scanning it. It flies away, just as a large shudder goes through the hull. The camera's feed goes down.**

"This is a THREAT, people. I'll get back to you with any other information on these...things, that we happen upon. Jack Selkner, out."
<Report on Salina ring and planets Socorro and Oraibi. Coronado system.>
Salina Ring: No activity detected. Field pretty empty.
Oraibi: Mostly metallic planet, copper as main potentional trade good. Possible future mining post. Mission target presence negative. No mining spots or activity detected.
Socorro: Volcanic planet. Mission target presence impossible. Anything metallic would be melted like snow in an oven. Atmosphere is thick and dusty. Any ship attempting to land on this planet would have motors damaged by dust and ship would eventually become a part of the planet (literally).
After that, I went to Coronado to patrol the area a bit. I was looking to find some smugglers or Cartel but it was clear. It must have been a day off in the ICMG. Not even one of their ships near Jericho. After that, I decided to move to Bretonia to see what's going on there.
Me Smash. Smash give report on job with ICMG mining buddies.
Today, Smash shoot lots of rocks in Tau 23. Big ships come and take rocks away.
Smash meet lots of new friends. Dere was Mack, who smoke something called Shav. He say give Smash some, but Smash no like smoke. Den dere was Jack and Lily. Dey no like smoke none either. Dere was Burke. He shoot rocks with Smash.
We fill up lots of big ships. All people were very friendly. Da most friendly were da nice ladies on da Brothel Ship. Dey like talk to Smash. Smash feel very special with da nice ladies. Dey want Smash to stay, but Smash no have time to be with da ladies. Smash have big job to do with da rocks. So Smash leave and wave goodbye to da nice ladies.
Smash shoot so many rocks. Dey make the sky look like big cloud. Sadly, all those rocks shake Smash ship reel bad. Smash bounce all over ship like grasshopper on hot stove. But Smash do his job. Smash sleep now. Goodnight.
Smash back. Smash mine at Tau 23 with new friend Rick Astley. Rick Astley flew in ship Unobtainium. Rick sang "Never Gonna Give You Up" for Smash. Smash like. Soon, some other miner show up named Miner49r. Miner49r smart. Miner49r keep telling all other miners what dey do wrong. Smash wish he were smart like Miner49r. Some other miners want hurt Miner49r. Dey say Miner49r, he talk too much. But Smash no care. Smash listen to all people. Smash and Rick fill up, hmmm *counts on fingers*, two haulers. Take to New Berlin and sell for lots of fundz. Smash and Rick, we head back to Java, but get caught in big storm. Lay low for while til storm pass. Good time to sleep. Goodnight.
Smash here. Smash want to tell bout mining today. First, Smash meet nice miners named Violet and Tom. They help Smash to get rocks into big ship.
Smash get scared once though. Smash see Falcata bomber with big guns fly close. He Outcast named Hilden. Smash no know what Hilden want to do, so Smash act friendly. Maybe Hilden no hurt Smash. Smash happy cause Hilden no want hurt Smash or anybody else. Hilden is friend now. Smash ask him if he want to help mine. So, Hilden hit rock with SNAC, but it no work well for mining. Smash sad, cause he like Hilden. Maybe Hilden be miner someday. If so, he need get gooder mining tool. After short time, Smash fill up big ship and go to Java Station. Smash want to stay work but miners told Smash that work all done. Oh well, plenty more rocks to shoot tomorrow. *yawns* Smash sleepy again. Goodnight. *snores loudly*
Good day, everyone.
Some of you may know me, most of you don't. If you allow me to introduce myself, my name is Thadeas Drater, I am Martin's brother. I have been working for you unofficially for some time and was about to send this application a great while back, just had a little incident in Buffin system.
One of the engines has been damaged from the last fight with a gunship in Tau 23 and went out in a blast on my way back to Java station from Coronado five days ago. I was lucky to be saved by ICMG[SL91A]Topaz piloted by Marten Reeds yesterday. Thank you very much Marten.
I have passed pilot academy and been working on ship inprovement and repairs for LodHull .inc in Liberty system for two years.
I can pilot most fighters, freighters, bombers and gunships in known universe.
okay I was flying along omega 3, minding my own buisness when a couple mercs shot out my engines and stated that I had a bounty on me for some unknow reason. I asked why and who posted the bounty but this he refused to tell me, YET. I told him I'd rather pay the bounty for my head than risk my life so while I was withdrwling money, one of them stated that we were untrustworthy followed followed by a couple more insults i would rather not speak of. If it wasent for a couple red hessain pilos who came by at the last second I think they would have killed me anyway.
the red hessains joined me and fought along side me. They defended me.
after the fight went on for a while longer, al daumann pilot showed up. He sat there watching until more daumann fighters arrived then shouted that he was going to kill ME! I havent done anything to daumann, I dont know why they would attack me! but then I connected the dots, the "reaver" mercs were then joined by the daumann fighters that could only mean one thing! we were desperatly outnumbered, only me and two hessain pilots.
I'd never Think I'd say this but a normally annoying Ion storm saved my life. I managed to slip away amogest the sonfusion. I wanted to stay and help the hessians but my ship was too badly damaged to fight.
a big danke shon to the hessains! who saved my life in the omegas!
// and on an OORP note as the picture revels, the DHC didnt even give me a chance to turn "torrents" off, whatever the hell a "torrent" is.
okay, John (piloting the ICMG[SL25S]Shale) and I (piloting the ICMG[7th]K-Spar) we're heading tward an outcast inselation that was under construction.
as we were on our way we passes cali base. There waiting for us, was one [Cartel]CM.Nexx in his trident. he approaches us and demands we stop... He then demands 3 million credits from us or else we would "die" in the next 4 hours
