From: Asai Takao, Kyoto base,
To: Blood Dragon Comm Relay Station,
Yet another battle with the Corsairs today, unfortunatly, this one did not have such favourable results, we were defeated by the disgusting cannibalistic Gajiin, their forces consisted of three fighter class vessels, along with one Osiris class battleship, who knows how they managed to get it so close to our home without getting severely crippled, however, that is beyond the point, our forces consisted of a gunboat, one bomber, and three fighters, unfortunately, most of our fleet were destroyed, partly through carelessness, partly through bad co-ordination, however, we managed to damage their battleship, and nearly destroyed one of their fighters, they claimed victory, however, the greater victory is ours, since we managed to learn new lessons and we are prepared for the rest of the war... The Corsairs will live to regret their dishonourable actions today, when our time arrives, they will feel the worst my wrath, along with the corrupt Samura scum...
However, all escape pods were retrieved so no lives were lost, they are recovering from their injuries on Kyoto base's medical facilities.
