Fellow brothers, the Red Hessian Army is expanding it's influence and our actions are spreading word about us fast! Two days ago we have managed to score a plethora of victories, both against the corrupt Kanzler and the wretched Corsairs!
Our first victory dealt a massive blow to the Kanzlers war machine. I have led an incursion into New Berlin that day, with our forces comprised of my Odin, miss Olsen's bomber, brother Lenz's fighter and brothers Kurze and Todsturm in their bombers. Positioning ourselves near a trade lane we begun collecting donations from traders and have soon encountered a Rheinland Battleship under the handle Max_Payne. The battleship's captain was foolish enough to fly into the asteroid field to get to us, where our forces finished him off in short order.
The traders were in complete awe of this Hessian victory, and dared not challenge our superiority that day. Not even the massive Rheinland battleships can survive our devastating attacks!
Shortly after I was called by a person whos name I will not reveal right now (his safety at stake, if the Rheinland Military discovered his name, he would most likely suffer repercussions) to meet him in Sigma-13. I have of course complied to his request, and met him near the New Berlin jump hole. After a short conversation he has proposed to give a voluntary contribution to the Red Hessian cause in the number of 10 million credits! I have accepted the contribution and spread it amongst our forces participating in the destruction of the Rheinland battleship for repair and restock purposes. I will be transmitting the name of this benefactor to Red Hessian forces on secure channels soon, it is only appropriate that we do not tax him and acknowledge his help requests if he ever requires it!
After this extremely eventful trip our forces fell back to Vogtland to regroup. We have succesfully executed an incursion into Omicron Gamma afterwards, destroying two Corsair capital ships at which point we fell back. My fighter was incapacitated, and brother Konrad Kurze had to tractor in my escape pod, but the damage dealt to the Corsairs was much higher. All in all, this was a successful surprise attack! The Corsairs never even saw it coming.
We had all returned to Vogtland afterwards, and Oberleutenant Matt Black had assumed command of our forces at that point. Another supporter under the callsign Frayist has joined us at that point. After a while of operating in the Omegas we had returned to Dresden, and followed with another attack on New Berlin. No known elite military fighters were detected on long range scanners, and we proceeded in knowing that there won't be much challenge against us. Oberleutenant Black took point in the Leopard, and we made way to the Sigma-13 jump hole, the recent major artery in Rheinland - Kusari trade. After extracting another 6 million credits of donations to the cause, resistance had finally reared it's head in the form of a Bounty Hunter cruiser under the callsign SlikRik. The ship was helpless as our bombers relentlessly pounded it's hull until there was nothing left. The Leopard has dealt the finishing blow in this encounter, scoring a direct hit to the reactor and turning the cruiser into a brilliant fireball.
Another Bounty Hunter cruiser shown up afterwards, this one under the callsign Megiddo. Unfortunately in this encounter our forces had made a blunder of engaging him outside of the asteroid field. Initially the battle was quite successful with the cruiser haplessly trying to hit our nimble bombers. After a few minutes of pummeling his hull down the cruiser managed to score three lucky shots somehow, and hit three of our ships in a way reminiscent of the ship AiRaGe. Damaged heavily, our squadron had to return to Vogtland.
This blunder notwithstanding, the day was an enormous success for the Red Hessian Army! This is but the beginning of many more such rallies against our enemies. As long as we are challenged, we must not rest! And we will not rest.
I must commend brothers Todsturm, Kurze and Frayist for their extraordinary dedication to the cause. These victories would not be possible without them, and I sincerely hope for many more supporters like them joining our attacks in the near future. With people like them, the Red Hessians will soon succeed!
