RE: The Apostatas - Message Dump - Username removed - 09-30-2018
Right, I would like to add to senor Acero's details of the trip that we have been in contact with two high ranking Unioners during this trip, a certain Mary Dross and a certain Hunter Wolff.
They seem to be against the current leadership that betrayed us during the trial on Crete and prefer to remain on peaceful terms with us.
Wolff was the more talkative, perhaps we should contact him and see whether or not we can set something up with them, maybe getting us access to their goods and setting up some sort of trading agreement.
Ivan Norovich out.
RE: The Apostatas - Message Dump - Username removed - 10-04-2018
Once an enemy, may have turned ally.
The Unioners plot to overthrow the treacherous ruling power whose words saw us exiled from Crete.
I have vowed to help them in this endeavor so that they too may help us overthrow the Council of Elders and their Custodii slaves.
I ask that we lend them our warriors and our weapons so that their mission may end in success as to enable them to see that our mission and fiery goal also ends in success.
RE: The Apostatas - Message Dump - Username removed - 10-07-2018
A few days ago I was in Bering overseeing the development of the relations between Hunter Wolff and us when an Order member contacted me with an emergency message that we had to assist a Bundschuh refugee operation and that we were to expect Nomad interference.
I still haven't managed to get an answer out of the Order as to why were Nomads targeting refugee transports, in Frankfurt out of all places but sure enough, the intel was correct.
I went ahead with an Order strike team and we encountered a large Nomad war form, we ripped it apart, after that the communications between the Bundschuh and the Order went chaotic because of VFK mercenaries and BDM special forces hunting us.
My ship was severely damaged in the fight with the Nomad and I had to dock on Ausburg wreck for emergency repairs.

Encryption: 'Clash of the Titans'
Buenos Dias
Today is a sad day, friends. I have witnessed a great loss of life within the Province system. Hundreds, if not thousands of lives snuffed out by a clash of titans. I happened upon this battle as the first volleys were being fired from both sides.
What began as an assault on the system by Crayterian and Council forces ended in a decisive victory for the GRN, and now they continue to hold Planet Marseille. After an extended skirmish, and an all-out offensive on the Oblique by the entire Gallic Navy, both the Council and Crayter Military were completely obliterated. I could only watch from afar. On a more immediate note, the destruction of the Oblique must be causing all sorts of chaos within the Council's political ring. However, she also ended up taking more than a few Royal Navy capitals with her to the grave. Financially, I can't even imagine what the loss of so many ships will do for both sides.
Using the Colibri's recon camera, I was able to secure a few photos of this conflict, to be reviewed at your discretion.
On a personal note, I pray for the families of those lost in battle, and I fear what consequences this engagement could have in the larger scale of the Gallic war.
This is Cesar Aguilar, signing off.

Saludos.
I decided to do a patrol run in Theta now that system wide activity is at an all time high. Corsair military activity has decreased as of late but there are still scout ships around and other civilian ships flying in and out of Freeport 9. I was lucky enough to remain unseen and managed to find a Junker transport passing by. After intercepting it my cargo scan reported that the ship was carrying artifacts. A short interrogation revealed that the Junker had purchased these artifacts at Crete and planned to sell them at Kurile, though this was most likely false information. As you know, the word of a smuggler can not be trusted. However, the pilot complied to my demands and the artifacts were destroyed. Hopefully one less smuggler to fuel the elder's economy on Crete.
I did not get a recording of the transport due to my ship's systems suffering some minor damage caused by radiation, but the communication logs have survived and will be attached at the end of this report.
I was later accompanied by Miguel Blancos. We encountered a pilot of the Gas Miners Guild whose name was Guildmaster Keiji Namura. He had spotted the smuggler transport as well and shared his gratitude for dealing with it. We seem to share common views when it comes to the artifact trade. They also have an interest in the research of Alien organisms. A mutually beneficial relationship between our organizations could be a possibility. Senor Namura informed us that they would reach out to us regarding this.
I will continue to patrol Theta as soon as my ship's systems have been repaired and restored.

[27.12.2018 00:23:15] ApS|N.Berlioz: Where did you pick up those artifacts from?
[27.12.2018 00:23:28] The.Apothecary: *They squint.*
[27.12.2018 00:23:47] The.Apothecary: Where ya think? Anyone else but the Corsairs on Crete selling them for cheap?
[27.12.2018 00:24:16] ApS|N.Berlioz: Ok senor. I will give you two options.
[27.12.2018 00:24:37] ApS|N.Berlioz: One, you drop your artifacts and leave peacefully.
[27.12.2018 00:25:09] ApS|N.Berlioz: Two, you resist and I will have to blow a hole into your ship, destroying your artifacts either way.
[27.12.2018 00:25:28] The.Apothecary: Deadass?
[27.12.2018 00:25:46] ApS|N.Berlioz: Forgive my manners, but this is your ultimatum senor.

[27.12.2018 00:26:14] GMG-Namura.Maru: Ah, an artifact smuggler. Must unfortunate.
[27.12.2018 00:26:20] The.Apothecary: Swear those people nowadays man.
[27.12.2018 00:26:40] ApS|N.Berlioz: Now what will it be senor?
[27.12.2018 00:26:49] The.Apothecary: Check yer sensors.
[27.12.2018 00:27:44] ApS|N.Berlioz: Gracias senor. That is all I wanted. Please do not come here again with artifacts.
[27.12.2018 00:30:15] GMG-Namura.Maru: That Junker's trajectory indicates he was preparing to jump to Guild space with a load of contraband.
[27.12.2018 00:30:26] ApS|N.Berlioz: Forgive me for not recognizing your presence Maru.
[27.12.2018 00:30:31] ApS|El.Diablo: Who are you?
[27.12.2018 00:30:42] GMG-Namura.Maru: Guildmaster Keiji Namura, of the Gas Miners Guild.
[27.12.2018 00:30:57] GMG-Namura.Maru: Our respective organisations have been in contact in the past.
[27.12.2018 00:31:06] ApS|N.Berlioz: Pleased to meet you senor, or is it senora?
[27.12.2018 00:31:13] ApS|El.Diablo: I heard, yes
[27.12.2018 00:31:15] GMG-Namura.Maru: Senor.
[27.12.2018 00:31:20] ApS|El.Diablo: How can we help you?
[27.12.2018 00:31:41] GMG-Namura.Maru: I would simply like to comment that it is most fortunate you interdicted the smuggler when you did.
[27.12.2018 00:31:57] GMG-Namura.Maru: The alien artifact trade is an unsavoury business that fuels criminality throughout the Sirius Sector.
[27.12.2018 00:32:15] ApS|El.Diablo: That's our job Senor
[27.12.2018 00:32:35] ApS|El.Diablo: Yet I don't think you came till here just for this
[27.12.2018 00:32:59] GMG-Namura.Maru: I am otherwise merely passing through. The Guild has great interest in the study of the alien organisms of this system.
[27.12.2018 00:33:05] ApS|N.Berlioz: Good to know we share a common view on that.
[27.12.2018 00:33:27] ApS|El.Diablo: I thought Sigma 17 was filled with those...
[27.12.2018 00:33:55] GMG-Namura.Maru: There is a species native to Planet Kurile that is most beneficial to the terraforming process.
[27.12.2018 00:34:07] GMG-Namura.Maru: Their neighbours in Omicron Theta appear to be of a slightly different strain.
[27.12.2018 00:34:33] ApS|N.Berlioz: Senor Maru.
[27.12.2018 00:34:54] ApS|N.Berlioz: The junker we just stopped, he claimed to be heading to Kurile.
[27.12.2018 00:35:07] GMG-Namura.Maru: Unlikely. It does not have functioning orbital entry facilities.
[27.12.2018 00:35:28] GMG-Namura.Maru: Furthermore, he would not find a buyer for his contraband there.
[27.12.2018 00:35:42] GMG-Namura.Maru: This is likely a lie in an attempt to secure passage through the system.
[27.12.2018 00:36:15] ApS|N.Berlioz: Well, I don't trust the word of a junker anyways.
[27.12.2018 00:36:48] GMG-Namura.Maru: I must return to Guild space. Thank you for the privilege of your time.
[27.12.2018 00:36:57] ApS|El.Diablo: We fight each and everydady smugglers Senor
[27.12.2018 00:37:01] GMG-Namura.Maru: Perhaps there is potential for collaboration between our groups in ensuring our mutual security.
[27.12.2018 00:37:08] ApS|N.Berlioz: Senor Maru, if it is alien organisms that you are interested in. We might have some we could share to you.
[27.12.2018 00:37:14] ApS|El.Diablo: There could be
[27.12.2018 00:37:20] ApS|N.Berlioz: If you are interested.
[27.12.2018 00:37:29] ApS|El.Diablo: Oh I'm sorry, where are my manners
[27.12.2018 00:37:38] GMG-Namura.Maru: The Guild is always on the lookout for business partners.
[27.12.2018 00:37:42] ApS|El.Diablo: I'm Miguel Blancos
[27.12.2018 00:37:47] GMG-Namura.Maru: A pleasure to meet you.
[27.12.2018 00:37:55] GMG-Namura.Maru: I must, for now, return to the Sigma systems.
[27.12.2018 00:38:01] ApS|El.Diablo: May I escort you?
[27.12.2018 00:38:13] GMG-Namura.Maru: As I recall, the Apostatas and Gas Miners Guild were attempting to establish relations.
[27.12.2018 00:38:14] ApS|N.Berlioz: We seem to share common views in more than just security.
[27.12.2018 00:38:26] GMG-Namura.Maru: Your offer is appreciated, however not required. My route is clear. Thank you.
[27.12.2018 00:38:54] ApS|N.Berlioz: My name is Nero Berlioz, I do believe I did not tell you my name either.
[27.12.2018 00:38:58] GMG-Namura.Maru: A pleasure.
[27.12.2018 00:39:05] ApS|El.Diablo: There were as I can recall aswell
[27.12.2018 00:39:27] ApS|El.Diablo: But I wasn't conducting the diplomatic mission
[27.12.2018 00:39:33] ApS|N.Berlioz: Si, maybe we need to establish those talks once again.
[27.12.2018 00:39:55] GMG-Namura.Maru: On my return to Sigma-19, I shall review our previous communications and attempt to resume where we left of.
[27.12.2018 00:40:03] GMG-Namura.Maru: Your time and thoughts on this matter have been most welcome.
[27.12.2018 00:40:16] GMG-Namura.Maru: I will now depart. Please enjoy the rest of your day.
[27.12.2018 00:40:17] ApS|N.Berlioz: Very well.
[27.12.2018 00:40:23] ApS|El.Diablo: You can dirrecly contact me, senor
[27.12.2018 00:40:40] ApS|N.Berlioz: Adios. Stay safe out there.

Buenos Dias, Hermanos. I'm afraid I cannot be too long in this message. Time is of the essence.
During a recent, relatively uneventful patrol of the Omicron-Omega territories, we were contacted by a Coalition Vessel. The commander of this vessel informed us of a large-scale offensive on the Omegas, orchestrated by the Elders and their Brotherhood. This offensive has already resulted in the loss of the Kessel, a Hessian capital vessel, to nuclear weaponry. Currently, Omega-47 and Omega-5 are in a state of total war, all of this previously unknown to us. The Coalition, along with the other Omega factions, are presently requesting our assistance.
The following is a transcript of our conversation.
[02.04.2019 19:06:14] ApS|CRV-Giralda: ?:Buenas dias hermano
[02.04.2019 19:07:01] ApS|CRV-Giralda: ?:How are the Omegas at the moment?
[02.04.2019 19:07:15] SCRA|Mehmed-Selim: A lot more chaotic than they should be.
[02.04.2019 19:07:24] ApS|CRV-Giralda: ?:After the Omega-3 events I can expect anything...
[02.04.2019 19:07:29] ApS|CRV-Giralda: ?:How so?
[02.04.2019 19:08:17] SCRA|Mehmed-Selim: Crete at its 'finest', of course.
[02.04.2019 19:08:22] ApS|Azul-08: ?: We haven't seen much in the way of traffic, unfortunately.
[02.04.2019 19:08:28] ApS|CRV-Giralda: ?:What do you mean?
[02.04.2019 19:09:09] SCRA|Mehmed-Selim: Fourty-Seven and Five are quickly degenerating into battlegrounds.
[02.04.2019 19:09:26] ApS|CRV-Giralda: ?:That's new to us
[02.04.2019 19:09:36] ApS|Azul-08: ?: Battlegrounds? Hermano, what have I been missing?
[02.04.2019 19:09:39] ApS|CRV-Giralda: ?:Is there any way we can support?
[02.04.2019 19:10:29] SCRA|Mehmed-Selim: It's an absolute mess, bad things chaining to others.
[02.04.2019 19:11:11] ApS|CRV-Giralda: ?:My question is still there;any way we can provide assistance?
[02.04.2019 19:11:18] ApS|CRV-Giralda: ?:It would be the least
[02.04.2019 19:11:51] SCRA|Mehmed-Selim: We, or more accurately, the Hessians, are going to need more firepower.
[02.04.2019 19:12:08] ApS|CRV-Giralda: ?:Hmmm...
[02.04.2019 19:12:14] ApS|CRV-Giralda: ?:That can be provided
[02.04.2019 19:12:36] SCRA|Mehmed-Selim: To give you an idea...
[02.04.2019 19:13:08] SCRA|Mehmed-Selim: The pride of the Hessian fleet was nuked, this after their attempt to leverage the situation in Omega-3.
[02.04.2019 19:13:28] ApS|CRV-Giralda: ?:Hmm I see
[02.04.2019 19:13:50] SCRA|Mehmed-Selim: Tangier is vulnerable, and the Corsairs are intending to exploit the lack of force.
[02.04.2019 19:14:15] ApS|CRV-Giralda: ?:Wow..didn't expect this
[02.04.2019 19:14:31] ApS|CRV-Giralda: ?:Nobody has notified us
[02.04.2019 19:14:39] Death: Piszkos.Fred was put out of action by a hostile vessel.
[02.04.2019 19:14:54] ApS|Azul-08: ?: Capitan, this is obviously a grave situation... I understand I am under your command, but I'd advise mobilizing our-
[02.04.2019 19:15:03] ApS|Azul-08: -forces to assist in this conflict.
[02.04.2019 19:15:08] SCRA|Mehmed-Selim: I'd imagine that's due to the Hessians not entirely giving the Apostatas as much trust as the Coalition does.
[02.04.2019 19:15:32] ApS|CRV-Giralda: ?:We should try and earn that trust comarade
[02.04.2019 19:16:08] SCRA|Mehmed-Selim: I certainly would not object.
[02.04.2019 19:16:26] ApS|CRV-Giralda: ?:The Apostatas will deploy ships to assist you in Omega-47 against the Corsairs
[02.04.2019 19:17:13] ApS|CRV-Giralda: ?:Tangier won't fall in the Elder's hands!
[02.04.2019 19:17:56] SCRA|Mehmed-Selim: The Hessians would be seriously crippled if it did.
[02.04.2019 19:18:25] ApS|CRV-Giralda: ?:Thank you for notifiying us of this matter, the High Command will bring discuss this topic and see what can be done
[02.04.2019 19:19:17] ApS|CRV-Giralda: ?:Would be appreciated to send us a communication on the Neutral Net where you state where exactly we can help
[02.04.2019 19:20:26] SCRA|Mehmed-Selim: I will see to your involvement the next chance I can get to Heinrich.
[02.04.2019 19:20:54] SCRA|Mehmed-Selim: That said, I hope things are a lot more quiet in Theta than they are closer to Moscow.
[02.04.2019 19:21:11] ApS|CRV-Giralda: ?:Things have been too quiet lately
[02.04.2019 19:21:33] ApS|CRV-Giralda: ?:Only a few ships here and there, not something our defences couldn't take care of
[02.04.2019 19:21:38] SCRA|Mehmed-Selim: We're exporting a lot of noise right now, if you'd care to pick up some.
[02.04.2019 19:22:18] ApS|Azul-08: ?: If we were able to stretch the Brotherhood thin on both fronts...
[02.04.2019 19:22:29] ApS|CRV-Giralda: ?:It takes time comarade
[02.04.2019 19:22:36] ApS|CRV-Giralda: ?:But we'll break them.
[02.04.2019 19:22:38] SCRA|Mehmed-Selim: Mmm.
[02.04.2019 19:23:03] SCRA|Mehmed-Selim: The so-called 'elders' and their brotherhood have a surprising level of reserves, as you know.
[02.04.2019 19:23:15] ApS|CRV-Giralda: ?:As for now, we'll await for you to give us specific instructions on where you need us
[02.04.2019 19:23:31] SCRA|Mehmed-Selim: With that whole overpopulation scheme there's always mad men willing to leap into cockpits and die for a crooked empire.
[02.04.2019 19:23:35] ApS|CRV-Giralda: ?:We do know, in the end we were Corsairs *laughs*
[02.04.2019 19:23:53] ApS|CRV-Giralda: ?:Corrupt regime
[02.04.2019 19:24:15] SCRA|Mehmed-Selim: As for the conflict, it is mainly going to center around Tangier itself in 47, and along the Kassel's retreat path in 5 --
[02.04.2019 19:24:17] SCRA|Mehmed-Selim: -- to Moscow.
[02.04.2019 19:25:05] ApS|CRV-Giralda: ?:We could be able to provide some defences to Tangier
[02.04.2019 19:25:43] ApS|CRV-Giralda: ?:Of course we do not have a massive fleet
[02.04.2019 19:25:58] SCRA|Mehmed-Selim: Viernheim's garrison, and our carrier group, is up against the ravenous legions of battlegroup Fes.
[02.04.2019 19:26:20] ApS|CRV-Giralda: ?:Maybe we can surpise attack them...
[02.04.2019 19:27:00] ApS|CRV-Giralda: ?:Element of surprise is always a huge advantage
Because of this, it appears a soft campaign against the Elders is no longer an option. They are now targeting our forces with as much ferocity as they do to the Coalition or the Hessians.
It's all-out war now. We need to act fast.
