Good day, guild members. I was previously going to report about the few enemies in Liberty that I shot down during my visit there, but this seems to be of a minor issue now. Some of you have experienced it yesterday, when an Unioner raid group entered Sigma-13. We managed to shoot them down, though, the damage they have caused is rather minor yet noticeable. This won't be the last time these maniacs try to push us out of our territory but it also won't be the last time we have prevented them from doing it. I advise everyone to be careful and alarmed when you are around Helgoland and its vicinity, we don't know where else they can lurk. If you plan to transport something in direction of Rheinland, notifiy someone, me, if it has to be. We need escorts.

Furthermore, for the awareness of you, we now have a contract with Cryer Pharmaceuticals:

Cryer ; GMG contract Wrote:- Cryer Pharmaceutals ; [Cryer] tagged ships are permitted to ship Cardamine, Nomad materials and Azurite Gas through Gas Miners Guild territory.

- Cryer Pharmaceuticals will pay a monthly fee of 10 million credits to GMG|Bank to pay this license.

- Cryer Pharmaceuticals will deliver a 5000 unit transport load of medical goods to Aomori Station in Honshu every month and report the delivered goods into the Gas Miners Guild Transmission Center.

- Sigma-17 is still considered Gas Miners Guild territory, but due to the presence of Atka, the restrictions are not in effect in said system.

- The Gas Miners Guild ; GMG|will protect and escort [Cryer] ships within GMG sovereign territory.

- The Gas Miners Guild ; GMG| will not fine or sanction any of the listed items

Yesterday, a meeting with the Rheinland Military Admiral occurred in the Sigma-15 system. They demand to overlook our operations in Sigma-13 and thus invade our Sigmas with a tactic they use as a disguise to reclaim what they think is theirs. This cannot happen, I don't tolerate any Rheinland authority within our Sigmas, if you see any Rheinland ship that is either from the Military or the MND, then immediately lead it out of the Sigmas, use force if you have to. I am certain that they will try to start a war between us with the blind hope to win the Sigmas for themselves. I advise every Guild member to use their traderoutes through Kusari instead of Rheinland from now on, avoid the Rheinlanders whenever you can, even if you waste time with it. If necessary, we will have to call all of our allies to aid us in this possible conflict.

Today I was engaged in the usual delivery of materials for a military project, when I met kusarian battleship - KDS-Yamato, Tokugawa, class: Battleship. In this meeting I have heard the sounds of incoming war, because this ship was heading to borders with Sigma systems to help us there. I think this meeting deserves your attention, Guildmistress and supervisors.

On 824/10/22 Sirius Standard Date, Green wing was dispatched for recon at the site of NEMP attack in Frankfurt system. We were instructed to avoid contact with Rheinland law enforcement, military and corporate elements at all cost. Our mission was to reach the site, collect intelligence data and assess the situation.

I entered Frankfurt system via jump anomaly from Sigma-13 around 2120 using standard Karasu heavy fighter vessel, callsign Green-21. I moved to the northern edge of Taunusfeld asteroid cloud to avoid detection by Rheinland patrols. Upon leaving the cloud, I assumed intercept course towards the Sigma-13 jump gate structure.

At 2125, I made an approach to the gate at 10K and started scanning the structure to assess its state. The gate is visually damaged and displaced. Jets of unidentified nature are emitting from certain parts of it. Fulda Border Station shows no life signs. Electromagnetic readings are minimal. Detailed scans in attachment.

Further on approach I spotted hostile contacts closing fast. Identified the contacts as Benzaiten very heavy fighters, IFF red, no apparent insignia. The ships engaged me without warning or demand and I was forced to return fire. I disabled two hostile vessels and took pilots into custody, then disengaged and returned to Sigma-13 jump anomaly.

The captured pilots were transported to Gas Miner Naha and put into isolation in security bay for interrogation. They had standard GMG escape pods with appropriate identification.

2 Very Heavy Fighters, Benzaiten class.

Good day again. In last few hours I had a series of briefings with other pilots of the Green wing and reviewed collected intel data. I feel that my conclusions are worth sharing with my commanding officers.

The patterns in appearance of the false GMG patrols indicate that they are being launched from some carrier vessel. Given the technical characteristics of Benzaiten fighter, the launch point should be relatively close to the site of the incident. Most likely, the carrier is roaming the northern edge of Frankfurt system or hiding in Westerwald nebula.

I'm not in position to make tactical decisions, especially given the amount of politics involved. From pure military standpoint, I'd recommend to send our forces into Frankfurt with mission to hunt down the offending carrier vessel. Please, consider me volunteer for this assignment.

Just as I was leaving the docking bays of Ogashawa my scanner picked up a Kruger signature just 7k away. As i engaged my engines I started to hail him on all channels. He did not respond and he used a cloaking device.
I continued patrolling the system and he re-emerged on my scanner in sector B-2. This time he did not engaged his cloaking device and I managed to stop him.
I told him that he is not welcomed in Sigma-19 and that I would escort him out. He agreed. But just as we jumped to Sigma-13, he came to a full stop.

Hided in the nebula, he had friends. An entire Rheinland military task force !
A task force consisting of a gunboat and a BDM agent flying a freighter class vessel with heavy modification to its armor.
Before I could reason with them, they open fire. The gunboat joined in and I was outgunned badly. I did not know how could such a task force come out of nowhere, until I made my way back to the Sigma-19 jump hole.
There, a Battleship class vessel uncloaked and blocked the jump hole.

With no possible way of returning to Sigma-19 via the jump hole, I had a quick decision to try and make it to Honshu system via the jump gate.
Under heavy fire by the BDM freighter and the gunboat I managed to jump away.
They did manage to do some damage to my ship, but it was not extensive.
Please be advice, the Rheinland Military seems to employ cloaking devices to ambush us in the Nebula.
Sadly I wasn't able to get a visual ID on the battleship, I tried to get close but it open fire on my craft with anti-snub turrets, and due to the nebula interference with the scanner, it was too dangerous for me to attempt to get closer.
