Before I begin, I must say thank you to Comrades Robert Thacker and the pilot of Troll-4, who answered my calls for help when no one else could be bothered to. Now then, I received intelligence that there was a decent sized Corsair Pirating Force in Frankfurt, when I arrived I found one Corsair Gunboat and One Titan locked in combat with a lone Rheinland Police Vessel. Almost as soon as I arrived, the Police Vessel was destroyed, they had me out-gunned for a short while before Comrade Robert Thacker arrived, the Gunboat immediately fled after it saw Thacker's revolution, leaving the Titan open for assault.

We chased him all over Rheinland, he even tried to dock on a Unioner base, but he thought better of it. He faked quite a lot, but we're no fools, and we saw through his fakes. Soon though, another Titan arrived and began to attack. Even then, we maintained chase, until an RNC vessel stepped in. Apparently, the RNC are in bed with the Corsairs. In any case, due to the distraction the RNC caused, both titans got away, though they were severely damaged. At this time, Troll-4 arrived in the nick of time, now that we had the firepower, we took down the RNC Cruiser. I have to admit, the way Thacker and Troll-4 flew in perfect unison, they made it look extremely easy. Once the Cruiser was destroyed, we were interrupted by a Rheinland Battleship. Interestingly enough, it opted to flee from us, even though we didn't have the firepower to down it. Regardless, Thacker and Myself proceeded back to Omega-5 with Troll-4 taking the scenic route back.

When myself and Thacker jumped into Omega-5, we were immediately and silently attacked by a Bretonian Gunboat. I gave the weapons-free and we engaged. He was easy enough, but our previous battles had left us devoid of Cruise Disruptors. The Gunboat slipped away, but not before we gave it one hell of a black eye. When we returned to Omega-52, Robert docked and and signed off.

I myself proceeded to prepare the Krasny Oktyabr for an excursion to Dublin, along with BAAL who had just recently activated itself. Almost immediately after we jumped into Dublin, an unknown contact began taunting us. He foolishly gave us his location and we proceeded. It seemed that the contacts friend had abandoned him, so he was alone. BAAL informed me that he had intercepted Bretonian Transmissions and that they were preparing a strike force.

Thankfully, the Junker attacked me first, so it saved me time in explaining why he was about to die. I teased him a bit and flew around him before he somehow managed to destroy his vessel with his very own Nova Torpedo. We would of stuck around, but BAAL detected a Bretonian Battleship, and as we know, where there's one Battleship there's five. Together we proceeded back to Omega-52 where we safely docked. All in all, a terrific day.

Today, a glorious day for the Revolution. Under my command, the Trotsky proceeded to Dublin. Almost immediately, I encountered a great deal of hostiles. I set a course away, but four of them maintained pursuit.

I ran a large circle around the Omega-49 Jumphole, trying to figure out a way to defeat my pursuers. They managed to disrupt my cruise engines once, but I managed to re-activate them. Soon after, I received word that the Havana itself was en-route. Unfortunately, it was a large distance away.

Trying to bide for time, I stopped my Cruise Engines near the Omega-49 Jumphole and began chatting with my pursuers. I'm fortunate they chose not to attack me immediately, for I would of been defeated. It seemed the enemy let their guard down a bit, with a Cruiser and a Hussar leaving the scene. I suppose they figured a Battleship and Gunboat could deal with the Trotsky should it become aggressive.

That was their critical mistake however, one which I exploited. I stalled for time by telling the story of the Two Cows, and discussing our ideology. Of course, I left a few parts out, as I didn't want to anger a Battleship sitting just 1 Kilometer away. Eventually, we got to the subject of comradeship. I said to them, "For you see, the Coalition always watches each others backs."

Perfectly timed, the Havana jumped in as soon as I had finished saying those words. The enemies panicked, not knowing what to do. We took advantage of the confusion and let loose on the Battleship. Mortar after Mortar from the Havana ripped its shields off, the Trotsky's own mortar assisting as well. Together, we brought down the Bretonian Battleship with minor damage. The Gunboat that accompanied it never stood a chance either. For some reason, it had opted to stay extremely close to the Havana. A fatal mistake.

Proud of our new victory, but weary that the Bretonians would mobilize even more vessels, we proceeded to Omega-49. When we arrived, we encountered a Zoner Jinkusu, the captain was level-headed and we had no issues. We did, however, have issues with a certain Gaian Gunboat that went by the name of Pyranja. It insulted both myself and Colonel Alvarez. We grew tired of it, and Havana quickly silenced him with a volley of weapons fire.

With the Havana needing slight repairs after the encounter with the Battleship, we set a course for Omega-52. The trip was uneventful, and we moored without issue.
