Priority: Normal
While sipping a beer on planet N-berlin I heard messages over the comms concerning a certain Sg2 and Santino_Coreone, two wanted bounties. So I hopped in my Arrow and went to search em out. the Rheinland military was allready all over them. SG2 was blown up before I could reach him. Same for Santino_Coreone. An outcast was still fighting so I jumped into the fight. he was on his last legs when he went out in "style" by smashing himself in planet Potsdam. no money I guess... sorry. here`s a guncam shot:

RE: Berlin ... part three
In keeping with the basis of what the rookie was reporting...
I was operating in Rheinland and ran into the appropriate scum as well.
For the general information of all agents, the Love brothers (as I like to refer to them) Travis Wood and John West both fly Corsair Gunboats. They are also willing to work with the OPG, as HurricaneX was in the same pile-up at the Sigma 13 jump hole.
I recommend forwarding to all APM ships that they avoid the southern route and these pirates. It took the RM-Krieg, RNC-Aegis, and RM-Johann Brunhild with my assistance to drive these guys off. During this time I did manage to capture a Wild pilot, who will be transferred to Con-Air for transport to prison and/or study.

Rookie, in looking over your file, I'd recommend that you maybe get out of that Arrow and into a Hammerhead or Manta. You need some more experience before we can put you into a bomber.
I do have a mission assignment for you, though.
In keeping with possible expansion of our activities, we need some information on a couple of systems. Please complete an updated survey of Omegas 55 and 58, and report on any and all activities and/or bases found there.
Oh, and it'd be a good idea if you set your mission recorder for automatic retransmit before you go in there...

I`ve traded in my arrow for a Sea Serpent. My love for agile ships is too great to step into a manta.
the arrow was a fine ship. I have been hit 1 time in all the dogfights I was in. However, it lacked punch like I feared from the beginning.
I`ll start the assigment right away. If I`m absent for a couple of weeks I`m probably floating aroud Sirius somewhere. I`ll get back on my own. I`m used to being shot down and losing my ship.
If I don`t come back at all; tell my family I hate them.

Subject: Prisoner Transfer to Vierlande Prison
Priority: Normal
Message reads:
Good Evening,
Got good news for you, another succesful prisoner transfer for S/D. As you know, the holdings in Bretonia are always filling to the point that they are bursting eh. Now before we began loading with the prisoners I ensured that ConAir was liscensed as required by the BPA Liscensing Bureau. We had quite the large list of exceptional scumbags that needed to be brought to Vierlande Stations along with usual mass of Riff Raff. I have here the list of passengers boarded for their "pleasure" cruise
The escort provided for ConAir was once again a significant one with veterans such as Special Agent Max commanding his Gunship the Surma, Senior Agent Bobafett bringing in is Bomber for heavy firepower and Agent Richard Vettel providing the Fighter support in case any sneaky bombers were going to try incapacitate ConAir.
The actual flight to Vierlande was in fact eventless. Well there was a few skirmishes along the way, just a few grunts, nothing special eh. We took the route through the Omegas with the hopes of reaching Vierlande as quick as possible. There was a brief moment of anticipation when it appeared that there may have been a Corsair Cruiser in New Berlin but we didn't encounter any. All prisoner were accounted for and a couple additions made it to the party.
The trip back was a different story. I'm not sure if these Corsairs knew that we just transfered their comrades to Rheinland facilities or if they intended a strike in general, but a pair of Corsairs made an attack against the convoy in Omega 7. They were never close enough to ConAir for their ships to be scanned but ConAirs systems showed that OneFOOTJack and FattyMcTurkey were destroyed by S/D pilots in that engagement. I am sure their report will be in soon.
The rest of the trip was uneventful with no more interference, I'm glad to say that we haven't lost a life in a transfer yet.
The chase we gave to that Corsair gunboat got me thinking. I lack somewhat in the stopping firepower department in that Hammerhead, so I'm filing a request for the directors to consider if I can switch to Manta if we have one available.
Outstanding work out there, agents. There's nothing quite like the vid-feeds of exploding criminal attack ships to raise one's spirits.
I would like to commend Sir Douglas Bader on his fine work handling the agency during my recent illness. Special Agent LaRouche is also deserving of special mention for his excellent work in regulating the Prisoner Transport and his fine command skills aboard the ConAir.
Our recent intake of fresh recruits has been officially processed. Recruits John Stalker, Raya "Crash" Remnant and Drake Flight have been admitted on probation. You are formally welcomed to the Agency's trainee division. Try to stay alive.
In recognition of their fine work killing associated scumbags and their tolerable levels of literacy in reporting their activities, full agent status is hereby approved for Tek Klimowsow, Cameron "Silent" Mitchell and Cletus "Banjo" Behn. Congratulations. You can requisition new ships at the earliest opportunity. There are some newly constructed Mantas and AP Bombers in the hangar at Sheffield.
There will be an update in due course on our efforts to secure a permanent base in the edgeworlds.

Looks like that crappy pile of meat that is called my family can`t dance on my would-be grave just yet.
I`ve just come back from the Omega 55 and 58 recon job. First time ever I don`t live up to my name; I`ve come back in one piece. My love for agile craft has increaded once more.
the report:
Entered Omega 5 through Omega 3 JH. A few lousy shots on the other end tried to stop me and failed. Popped into the Omega 55 JH. Popped out the other end to find some real peace and quiet.
They didn`t like me there and went hercules on my Sea Serpent`s engine. Not exactly crack shots those wilds are. But the CD`s were annoying.
My ears are still ringing from the missle alert waring which wouldn`t shut up.
That is something to worry about. I tried docking to no avail so I just gunned it and flew through the thing.
No effect. It`s still lifeless. It looked like it missed a piece though...
Completing one more round I couldn`t find anything else so I headed back to the JH to Omega 55. The trip back was quiet and boring. Only some sairs jumped me in Omega 3:
To summarize: both very hostile systems. Building a base there is immpossible unless a fleet barges in there to cover the operation. And even then the station wouldn`t be safe. 3 Wild BoO, a LOT of weapon platforms and a Nomad gate under construction are things to worry about. End of the report. Any questions, just ask.

RE: Alien issues
Director Graves -
As we are well aware, the Colonial Remnant is, like the DW, an alien presence in Sirius. These 'people' have, in the past, been quite peaceful in their dealing with us. However, I must report that it appears that they, like the DW, appear to also have a hostile nature when dealing with humans and human laws.
To wit, I call your attention to this public ulitimatum that they have issued to the Bretonian government:
Quote:Written statement.
- Accusing Colonial civilian vessels of being smugglers will not be tolerated.
- Attacking them out of Bretonia, trying to interrupt our trade routes will not be tolerated.
- Any privateer vessel is now object of immediate destruction by our forces. Anywhere.
- IMG council showed lack of courage with negotiations with bretonian government and ignoring issues that
IMG has with BMM. Although Colonial Remnant does not represent IMG as whole, we respect council's decision.
However we do not share same opinion.
- If we see any more provocations by Bretonian government like recent events, we assure you, not only cease fire will be over, but ALL bretonian vessels will be treated like hostile entities and we will be forced to respond with same measures you already applied on our traders.
- Bretonian government showed too much arrogance in the past. Now it is time to end that.
- We will not open these communication channels again.

I realize that you have only recently been able to return to work. I haven't actually seen reports that Harvey actually returned to work yet, though - that food poisoning you were reported to have contracted must've hit him harder than it did you, so I'm making this report in case you didn't see it in the attempt to catch up on all of your paperwork.
It might be a good idea to discuss with Her Majesties Government the potential for a bounty to be offered should hostilities break out.
