Hello Agents, If you are reading this.. you have been selected to join the Department of Intel. You have proved your self capable for being part of this. This is no joke, and definitely not a game, You will go deep into hostile territory, become an enemy of liberty to protect it. If you are caught, you will not survive, the places you will be going could be your last. If you screw it up that is..
But thats why you have been chosen, You proved to me and my assistants that you can do what we ask, with no little or no trouble. In this part of your job, you will not get paid, you are doing this because the people of liberty need their freedom, and we will do WHATEVER it takes to keep that freedom. Over the next few weeks you will be assigned a mission, i expect that mission to be done, you will have no support, just yourself. If you get caught, you will deny everything, you will give them a false name, and you will not tell them your true identity.
That is all for now, you will get further responses soon,
Today, myself and agent adam carter will be heading to omicron minor. We need to find the orders weakness and hit them where it hurts. This mission has been attempted once before, and has been failed, due to heavy nomad activity.
Let us hope that all goes well. Agent Carter will report the status of the mission, if and when it is complete. Copeland out.
As you have been informed Director Copeland and myself made a deep recon into Order space to find out just what the hell they where doing in there. What i about to tell you may shock you but even so i feel it is my job to make this report and only hope its not to late.
First off we made a sweep of the area in and around the planet they use as a base of operations and the Battleships next to it (See Below)
As you can see not much to look at, but it does seem they have a Weapons dealer just for Order use which could account for the amount of fire power they, not only is this ship selling weapons but it happens to be a Battleship also, so that one you can workout yourself.
Before we continued are search we landed on the planet to have a look in the shipyards and got some intel on their ships in the area.
As you can see they have a lot to offer on the ship side of things, from small ships to that massive Battleship.
Next we scouted the outter systems for these Order ships comming across one Order tagged Zoner ship killing nomads as they should be, that is if he even is a memeber of the Order and not just a friend of them.
the reason i say friend of the Order is because of this next person we met in Minor (See Below)
As you can see he is a Huntress class ship with Nomad weapons, that got me thinking why do the enemy of the Nomads use thier weapons. I Hailed the ship and put the same Question to him the only responce i got back was this.
Now you see where i was coming from, the Order not attacking Nomads its crazy, they claim we are infested with nomads but as you can see i think it is the other way around.
Copeland on hearing this sent me back to Libery space to send in this intel while he trys to gather more about just what the hell is going on in Order space and the Order themselves. These are dark times we have here not so different to what happened 16 years ago in Rhineland.
Last week, me and Director Copeland went even deeper in Omicron space. This time we went in Omicron Delta to do a recon mission. We came across some very interesting facts. Scanners indicated a large nomad presence in the above said area, As well as Zoners, Corsairs, Orders, Liberty Navy Patrols and a Rogue capital ship.
The only connection going in O-Delta from Alaska is in O-Minor.
Right after jumping our scanners picked up an extremely strong signal coming from a few clicks away. When we were closer to the source of the signal we realized that it was a Zoner Satellite. It is probably used to protect those living in O-delta Against Nomads treats. Our Thesis is that the Satellite is also used by the order to keep an eye on our activities in the nearby area and to plan strikes against both Liberty and Nomads (referring to LN patrols).
Uploading Data...
Disabling this installation would give us a chance to deliver a fatal blow at the order in this sector.
Briefly after, We saw on Long Range ships Telescope a large installation, a hundreds "k" from us. The ship is identified as a Battlestar Two Battleship model. It is extremely dangerous, and heavily fortified. Advising caution. We know nothing about this ship. Although, there is nothing to worry about it, its engines seem to be broken.
Uploading Data...
We then headed toward the Stars, Hoping to find any installation. Luckily, we found a Freeport, obviously Named, Freeport Eleven. We have been able to dock on it and refuel. It was something really easy, since it is a Freeport.
Uploading Data...
As you may see, they are selling some pirates ships, thus making them subject to suspicious activities.
We then went outside to scan patrols in the system; we found a lot of Corsair patrols and saw something interesting:
Uploading Data...
As those pictures show, Corsair is using Order Osiris class ships to patrol the area. This show how cautious the Corsairs are with Nomads. But it also shows how corrupt the Order is. I would have never Expected Orilion to be that Desperate...
We also saw in the system two large planetoids. A Corsairs base was in geosynchronous orbit with one of the planet. It is only a small forward outpost, mostly used to fuel ships patrolling the area. The name of the station is "Yaren Base".
Uploading Data...
In Both Bars (on both stations), we have read the journals, and found some very interesting information.
Uploading Data...
We could use this information to plan long term operations against the Corsairs and the Zoners. All these pictures indicates that Zoners are allied with Corsairs who are allied with Order, thus making Zoners in very good term with Order, since they are certainly offering a lot of knowledge on nomads.
As you know, today, the Benitez Family of Corsairs attempted to raid Newgate Prison and free their captured relative, Pepe Benitez. I was asked to provide info about the fleet of the Benitez and any tactical info I found useful. The Corsair fleet gathered in space between Planet Crete, the home planet of the Corsairs, and Tripoli Shipyard, the base that provides the Corsairs with all of their capital ships. Later, I'll do some recon work and report on the details of these bases.
The fleet was comprised of about 9 ships. Five were Titan fighters, three were Praetorian bombers, and one was an M26 Gunboat. We set out towards Manchester by heading through Omega-41, Omega-5, Cambridge, Leeds, and then to Manchester. As you saw, during the fight, Carlos Benitez searched the prison, but found no sign of Pepe Benitez. When he opened fire on the LSF, they quickly destroyed the Gunboat, but that angered Carlos and he ordered the termination of all the LSF ships. However, he decided to call them off and we retreated to the Leeds->Cambridge Jump Hole, where the rest of the fleet met up with us.. I was able to get pictures of the entire fleet here.
Luis, Ximen, and Truenos Benitez were in bombers I believe. The rest were in fighters (except for Carlos).
Afterwards, they headed to Cambridge to locate the Pendragon Bretonian Battleship, where they believed Pepe was being held. When they arrived, they disabled the Battleship, retrieved Pepe, and destroyed the Battleship. Carlos fled to Omega-5 and the LSF attempted to pursue, but he evaded the Cruise Disruptors and docked on Cadiz Base. This is a dark day indeed. We failed to reclaim Pepe Benitez, so now he will be able to tell the Corsairs all of Bretonia's, and possibly Liberty's, secrets. I suggested that I bust into the infirmary, kidnap Pepe, and attempt to return to Liberty. However, Director Copeland disagreed and ordered the LSF to return home. Shortly after, I returned to Planet Crete. I'll provide some information on the Corsair's equipment and bases in my next report.
End of Report.

Nice work out there pilot, we now have a full list of active Corsair ships in the area. I was able to get shot images from the attack but not many as the Newgate prison was blocking any attempt to scan or capture images of it.
First of all we have the small QCRF fleet which was holding the said prisoner Pepe:
Second i have Images of the joint fleet attacked by the Corsairs, as they managed to drop the Pendrangons Engines and shields just outside the Omega 5 hole they quickly took out the battleship and captured Pepe and ran for the Omegas before QCRF or LSF could do anything about it.
As for another attempt to capture Pepe i have 2 reasons not to do so. 1) the Corsairs will be expecting it and 2) We have bigger fish to fry in the Gamma system.
Not that we have a list of all ships and ship activilties we can now go after our long time goal to capture Carlos Bentitez the head of the Benitez family, with the information we can get from him we could topple the Corsairs once and for all and resume a battle with the Order and the Nomads, with supplies coming from the Gamma system to the Minor system stopped and the information we gather from Carlos we can drop 2 birds with one stone.
I will of course dispatch orders to your private comm systems with orders, as for the other Undercover agents working in the field report back on any finding from your areas and if i see that not much can be done in your areas you will be reassigned to this mission, and remember keep out of sight till then.
Mr. Carter, and all agents around corsair space.. as you know, Agent Williams was captured, he has valuable information about us and the corsairs. Therefore, Operation: Eterc is a go. Carter has debriefed you all, i hope.. Good luck and bring Williams home.
We will begin this operation asap, Agent Williams must be returned, at all costs.
This operation will begin in less than two hours. Get into position, and wait for Carters go, good luck..
Good Work team, we managed to get in and out with no loses and no fire power needed also just like I planed it. Now you know whats to come in the future of Undercover and the planning need for such a stunt and it may not be so easy in the coming days.
Now we have Williams back he is being debrifed at Fairbanks and we will have the Smugglers names and most of the Corsair - Liberty bases operations and i have a few commendments to make for this mission.
First off I commend Agent Linkero and give permission for full Undercover priverlages for his actions in todays raid, Also Flint and Walker for their help in the Alaska Systems. Draco Nephis as acting escort for my ship is also commended for his efforts in defending the transport vessel as is the Director of LSF Mr Copeland and Serpico for his efforts in the mission
So from now on you know what I expect from you and the manor in which you do it, stealth as much as most people hate it is a paramount point in our mission in the future and the success of future missions with depend on such acts of heroisum and intelligence. All in all we did very well tonight and i hope we can only get better in future missions.
//Ahhhhh dammit, I'm an idiot. After posting the images, I deleted them from ImageShack and my computer!!!!! Now no one can see them!!!!! Well, I said all the important stuff in the post, so it's not so bad. Btw, the bit where I said "yeah right" was a response to the SS where the guy who gave me the route info said "Now that you have this info, I hope you will use it well and not divulge it to the authorities."
After receiving orders from Director Carter to begin spying on the Outcasts' (particularly the BLS) smuggling ring, I immediately set course for Ruiz Base in the Omicron Beta System. Once I arrived, I began to look around and find out all that I could about the Outcasts' territory. Here are my findings:
Omicron Beta System
Located deep within the Edge Nebula, Omicron Beta is an inhospitable system filled with intense radiation, asteroids, and a huge cloud of green alien organisms. The system is very small and has only one base: Ruiz Base, which is used to refuel and resupply Outcast ships before they head out to pirate the Sigma Systems.
Omicron Alpha System
This system sits between the northern edge of the Crow Nebula of Kusari and the Edge Nebula. I have located two planets and two moons, but I suspect there is a third planet, deep within the Siniestre Cloud, but the cloud is filled with radiation, so I decided against going there. There is little activity around the Cloud, so I suspect that the unknown planet is of little importance. There is also one station in the system, which orbits the moon named Prenta. The name of the station is Ibiza Base and it's used to refuel ships heading into the Omicron Beta and Eta Systems. Here you can see Ibiza and Prenta, which orbits Planet Mallorca, a purple gas giant.
As I left Ibiza Station, I noticed something on the other side of Planet Mallorca. I went to investigate and made a startling discovery: the Outcasts were meant to be the fifth House of Sirius. The unknown object was none other than the Lost Sleeper Ship Hispania. The entire ship is in ruins and a debris field has collected around it. Apparently, the ship was damaged en route to Sirius and the colonists were forced to abandon ship. Such a shame. If the Hispania had not been damaged, the Outcasts may not have turned into criminals. I thought it would be important to include this, so here's a screenshot.
Afterwards, I headed to the second planet in the system. As I drew closer, I noticed a smuggler leaving the planet. I scanned his ship and, as I suspected, he was hauling Cardamine. His ship was a Transport and I inquired about his smuggling routes, saying that I was going to purchase my own transport as a cover-up. He refused to tell me, so I continued on my reconaissance mission. Here are some screenshots of his ship.
I returned to the planet, which was called Planet Malta, and cautiously landed my ship. All over the planet, there were plantations of orange grass that I later learned was Cardamine in its natural form. It appears that Malta is the source of all the Cardamine in Sirius, I also learned that the reason the Outcasts were so addicted to it was that trace amounts of Cardamine were in the Maltese air, food, and water, which altered the Outcasts' DNA and caused them to become addicted. When I learned this, I quickly returned to my ship and left, before the same thing happened to me. Here are some screenshots of the planet and the Cardamine.
As I returned to Omicron Beta, I noticed another smuggler supplying the Outcasts with Light Arms, as you can see here.
Around this time, the first smuggler who refused to tell me his smuggling routes contacted me on his private comms and, after some convincing and deception, I managed to get the info from him. One of the primary smuggling routes starts at Omicron Alpha and then goes through Taw-37, Tau-23, Tau-31, Baffin, Coronado, Cortez, California, and then Texas, before returning. He also mentioned the pirate transport, which I believe is one of the primary smuggling ships. Also, he said that Cardamine was shipped to a Junker base in Texas called Beaumont Base and during the return trip, slaves were brought back to Planet Malta. Here are screenshots of the info that I got out of him.
He also said this to me.
Heheh, yeah right. If you think I won't tell my superiors that, you're sadly mistaken. If you're wondering about the group chat, it's because the second smuggler asked me to escort him and said he would show me a quick way to the Cambridge System, which leads me to my next, and last system.
Omicron Eta
This appears to be the last known system under Outcast control. Well, it's not ENTIRELY under Outcast control. In reality, it's a warzone between the Corsairs and the Outcasts. However, the Outcasts have established one base here known as Palermo Base. There is also a massive Outcast minefield located in the middle of the system that deters large Corsair fleets from getting too close to Omicron Alpha. Later, we reached the Omicron Theta Jump Hole. After that, I wormed my way out of going to Bretonia by saying that I knew what the route was (it's Omicron Alpha->Omicron Eta->Omicron Theta->Omega-41->Omega-5->Cambridge. I discovered the other systems while on my last mission with the Corsairs) and that I was needed back on Ruiz Base. He agreed to let me go back, so I returned to Omicron Beta. Here are the last of the screenshots showing Palermo Base and the Omicron Eta Outcast Minefield.
I have already discovered one of the major smuggling routes and I plan to have more ready to divulge to you. If we're successful, the Outcasts' smuggling ring will be greatly weakened.
Until then, this is Agent Michael Cartman signing off. Wish me luck boys!

A few days ago, our Government asked us to go investigate a sudden rise of activity within the Rheinland systems. Frankfurt was one of the sources; Emissions of all kinds were coming out of it, a deep space Spa and Cruise liner reported it to its HQ. We were lucky enough to catch it along its way and immediately reported it to the heads of the nation.
The Government only allowed us a small wing to scout the field, due to the complexity and the risk about the mission. To start, We entered in Rheinland via an uncharted JH in Bering and then followed some pirate ships exhaust emissions to a Jump hole leading directly to Frankfurt. In there we detected the signature of a very big installation near where Juni went 16 years ago to destroy a nomad installation. We are 97% sure that this base is the source of all those mysterious emissions.
We couldn't get any visual on the base as it was patroled and the minefield was still there in operation. We had to get away quite fast as some Rheinland Militarr pilots were closing in on us from behind. We made it out just in time.
We are now in the sigma, on a station refueling ourselves and preparing for an other scout mission. No casualties or alerts so far.
