The Hessen are red,
The Message is blue,
Running won't help,
Ja this is true.
Kameraden!
Today was another glorious day for the movement. A small strike force of our fighters was roaming in Omega-41 when we suddenly picked up several corsair contacts. We went in and engaged them with all we had. Over the course of the ensuing battle both sides received reinforcements but in the end our superior spirit and skill granted us victory! We managed to destroy drei Imperator-class gunboats und ein Praefect cruiser while driving the remaining corsair forces back deep into their own territory. The help of our Kameraden from the SCRA was much appreciated during our advance. They will certainly be licking their wounds for some time now.

The history of human thought recalls the swinging of a pendulum which takes centuries to swing. After a long period of slumber comes a moment of awakening. Then thought frees herself from the chains with which those interested — rulers, lawyers, clerics — have carefully enwound her.
She shatters the chains. She subjects to severe criticism all that has been taught her, and lays bare the emptiness of the religious political, legal, and social prejudices amid which she has vegetated. She starts research in new paths, enriches our knowledge with new discoveries, creates new sciences.
But the inveterate enemies of thought — the government, the lawgiver, and the priest — soon recover from their defeat. By degrees they gather together their scattered forces, and remodel their faith and their code of laws to adapt them to the new needs.

weeks have passed, since you've heard anything new from myself in our Message Dump.
Verzeihung for neglecting mein report duties.
Be assured that I've been active on the playgrounds of terror, what our Vaterland has become.
There are several reasons for my absence. For one:
Since our Drill Inspector Raymond Amsel has retuned to active duties we have been busy in the training fields day and night.
He wants us to master the dodging skills in case we're outnumbered 6 to 1, he keeps sending us in the radioactive Asteroid fields to play Cat and Mouse.
If we get tired in our cockpits, small electric shocks from our helmets provide refreshment. The Sound of Natterns are buzzing in my head, as i type this!
Apart form our training there has been news concerning my father:
For my experience in logistic and gastronomic tasks i've also been promoted to staff segeant on the RHC-Rod Hammer.
The Hammer is a Hel Class cruiser that has earned quite a reputation in the past. Many rookies and veterans of the RM have chipped their teeth on it's hull.
It's named after a legendary junker Pilot, a daredevil that took immense risks to himself to "liberate" Capital Armor Upgrades from careless transfers.
The Red Hessians have maintained a close traderelations to the Junker who provided these Armor Upgrades for our capital fleet at discount prices.
On one of our prison exchanges missions, we met a Soldat of the Rheinwehr called Franz Mueller.
I've been summoned to the bridge to have a conversation with him. Here are the transcripts:
[font=Courier New][color=#CCCCCC]RHC-Rod.Hammer: *Sight* as always.
Depede: I guess you won't mind if I get myself out of this battlezone...
RHC-Rod.Hammer: There is no battle, and there will never be
Depede: so gentlemen... noch einen angenehmen abend...
[RM]-Fw.Klaus.Weiss: Hessian Vessel you have two options. Surrender yourself, und your prisoners. Or die.
RHC-Rod.Hammer: Except for the one, that started in your head, right now.
BDM|Ins-Hans.Bruder.: you should go away, Republican ship, and do not listen to hessian lies
RHC-Rod.Hammer: For the prisoners
RHC-Rod.Hammer: I will leave the area, and hand out the prisoners.
RHC-Rod.Hammer: IF you promise not to engage.
RHC-Rod.Hammer: My job here is done.
Franz.Muller: I signed for defending Rheinland in Hamburg and Hudson, not for killing other Rheinlanders. I'm leaving.
RHC-Rod.Hammer: Whops. Youre' full...
BDM|Ins-Hans.Bruder.: *takes note of the name*
RHC-Rod.Hammer: get a vessel with more free cargo
[RM]-Fw.Klaus.Weiss: What? When did I get these?
[RM]-Fw.Klaus.Weiss: Give me a second.
RNC-Rotisttot: marines recovered
RHC-Rod.Hammer: I will transfer the people to RNC.
Franz.Muller: Why we are fighting with our own brothers?!
BDM|Ins-Hans.Bruder.: why are you discussing the Kanzler's will?
RHC-Rod.Hammer: Transfer complete.
[RM]-Fw.Klaus.Weiss: Gut.
Franz.Muller: My loyality is to Rheinland and Rheinlanders, not to a single politician.
RHC-Rod.Hammer: The RNC can take care of the people. they are healthy and in good condition.
[RM]-Fw.Klaus.Weiss: You are to immediately leave this system.
BDM|Ins-Hans.Bruder.: anyway, it seems we can clear this without blood spilling
RHC-Rod.Hammer: I will comply.
[RM]-Fw.Klaus.Weiss: Do not use the lanes.
RNC-Rotisttot: i will escort
[RM]-Fw.Klaus.Weiss: Gut. Rotisttot you are to follow as far as Dresden or the Omega Gates, whichever the Cruiser picks.
Franz.Muller: I'll escort too, if Hessian approve
RNC-Rotisttot: rgr that
Franz.Muller: Captain of Rod.Hammer, what's your name?
RNC-Rotisttot: no talking to the enemy
RNC-Rotisttot: he is lucky he is not slag at this moment
RHC-Rod.Hammer: Actually...
Franz.Muller: My enemy is Liberty, not other Rheinlander. *switching to priv channel*
RHC-Rod.Hammer: If you don't mind using this frequency.
RNC-Rotisttot: these hessian traitors would have you kneel before them
Franz.Muller: No problem. I'm Franz.
RHC-Rod.Hammer: This ship is named after a legendary junker Pilot.
RNC-Rotisttot: they are worse
RHC-Rod.Hammer: He looted CAU 8 from people that dropped them into space carelessly.
RHC-Rod.Hammer: And sold them to Hessians for low prices.
Franz.Muller: Sound's like Kanzler's propaganda clips, Rotisttot.
RHC-Rod.Hammer: Thats how they afford them on Jorms and Vidars.
Franz.Muller: Tell me about Popular Revolution.
RHC-Rod.Hammer: We're tight on ressources, so he was one of our finest contacts to the lighter side of .... well sure.
RHC-Rod.Hammer: jumping.
RHC-Rod.Hammer: Wow, he jumped first.
RNC-Rotisttot: keep moving, i don't want you to dock on this rock
RHC-Rod.Hammer: We move.
Franz.Muller: Please, can you tell me about Popular Revolution?
RNC-Rotisttot: watch your tone franz
RHC-Rod.Hammer: The thing is: more and more people are growing uncomfortable with the gouvernment.
RNC-Rotisttot: jump scum
Franz.Muller: I asked Hessian, not you.
RHC-Rod.Hammer: Well lets keep this channel open.
Franz.Muller: Ja, ja.
RHC-Rod.Hammer: It's scrambled so no worries.
Franz.Muller: Gut.
RHC-Rod.Hammer: So, I don't think i have to bore you with history lessons.
RHC-Rod.Hammer: fact is
RHC-Rod.Hammer: Rheinland is wasting his ressrources in a huge war machinery.
Franz.Muller: I can't kill other Rheinlander, I do not want to look how we're slaughtering ourselves.
RHC-Rod.Hammer: The common man is getting exploited while few are lucky to live of no sorrows.
RHC-Rod.Hammer: I feel with you mein Freund.
Franz.Muller: I know, I AM exploited
Franz.Muller: And that propaganda...
Franz.Muller: You know, there's joke between thinking Militar members:
RHC-Rod.Hammer: Share it with me...
Franz.Muller: Monday: I'm reading newspaper - Kanzler.
Franz.Muller: Thursday: I'm watching TV, Kanzler...
Franz.Muller: Saturday: I'm checking NeutralNet, Kanzler...
Franz.Muller: Sunday: I'm afraid of opening canning.
RHC-Rod.Hammer: Hehe.
RHC-Rod.Hammer: That reminds me of something...
Franz.Muller: ja?
RHC-Rod.Hammer: There is some new Gefreiter here on this ship.
Franz.Muller: And...?
RHC-Rod.Hammer: He got promoted to be quartermaster.
RHC-Rod.Hammer: On this ship.
RHC-Rod.Hammer: I let you talk to him... *shouts to background* Get Klaas over hier!
RHC-Rod.Hammer: *different voice now*
RHC-Rod.Hammer: Klaas Klever hier.
RHC-Rod.Hammer: I heard that joke over intercoms.
Franz.Muller: Franz Muller.
Franz.Muller: Ja.
RHC-Rod.Hammer: You know, back in the days we had a brewery station...
Franz.Muller: Ahh, brewery...
RHC-Rod.Hammer: And we made Klevers Starkbier - guess what!
RHC-Rod.Hammer: They offered us a contract with Kanzlerbraeu.
RHC-Rod.Hammer: To avoid additional taxes.
Franz.Muller: Good beer... I nearly missed how it taste...
Franz.Muller: Wait...
Franz.Muller: Kanzler dealing with Hessians?
RHC-Rod.Hammer: Nono.
RHC-Rod.Hammer: The thing is, back then i was not member of RHA
Franz.Muller: Ahh, in PAST...
RHC-Rod.Hammer: And
RHC-Rod.Hammer: The catch was, to avod taxig we would have to change reciepe and use cheaper ingedients.
RHC-Rod.Hammer: Synth stuff
RHC-Rod.Hammer: Of course our family refused.
[RHC-Rod.Hammer: That time we noticed that black car hovering in front of our house on somedays...
RHC-Rod.Hammer: Long story short
RHC-Rod.Hammer: All whats left is half of my family in prison.
Franz.Muller: Sad story... I had a friend... Hans Bauer...
Franz.Muller: He was farmer on Stuttgart...
Franz.Muller: And you know, SynthFoods...
Franz.Muller: He tried to farm on Nuremberg then.
Franz.Muller: And Daumann built Military vehicle's industry near his fields.
Franz.Muller: I have no contact with him.
Franz.Muller: But I suppouse he joined LWB.
RHC-Rod.Hammer: Well, that was his last resort.
Franz.Muller: I've hope I'll never to fight against him. As against other Rheinlanders.
Franz.Muller: I signed when Westfalen falled to LN.
RHC-Rod.Hammer: It's sick, one country, two wars.
Franz.Muller: But they decided I'll serve in Secondary fleet.
Franz.Muller: I can't kill other Rheinlander, I just can't. and I'm not going to.
Franz.Muller: I'll rather be shot down.
RHC-Rod.Hammer: Well at least you have your heart on the right spot.
RHC-Rod.Hammer: I hope that there are more people out there like you.
Franz.Muller: We're in Militar, but we are few in numbers. Kanzler's propaganda has great influence...
RHC-Rod.Hammer: When we enter Rheinland, we always hope to find mind that are ready to accept the truth.
RHC-Rod.Hammer: *minds
RHC-Rod.Hammer: And not to forget, we're defending our country from another menace.
Franz.Muller: Corsairs.
RHC-Rod.Hammer: The corsairs, right.
RHC-Rod.Hammer: But me.
RHC-Rod.Hammer: I'm fighting my own little war as well.
Franz.Muller: Thank you for that. And thanks for teaching Rheinlanders truth.
RHC-Rod.Hammer: I've sworn not to rest until i freed my father.
Franz.Muller: Is he in prison too?
RHC-Rod.Hammer: Apparently he's locked away in some station called "vierlande"
RHC-Rod.Hammer: But it's hard to find any intel about this place.
Franz.Muller: I know where is it, but I never docked there.
Franz.Muller: His name?
RHC-Rod.Hammer: Can you send him a message?
Franz.Muller: I'll try.
Franz.Muller: I have a friend on that prison station.
Franz.Muller: He's a doctor.
RHC-Rod.Hammer: Well...
RHC-Rod.Hammer: Can I trust you?
Franz.Muller: So he'll not be stopped from visiting prisoners.
Franz.Muller: I talked with you on system-wide chat.
RHC-Rod.Hammer: That is true...
Franz.Muller: I'm sure that BDM officer wrote down my name.
Franz.Muller: If they want me in prison for "insulting Kanzler" ...
Franz.Muller: I'll escape, with this ship rather, than be jailed for truth.
Apparently he has access to the prison station Vierlande. What news will he bring to me from there?
This night I went to my sleeping alcove with a headfull of hope.
Hope, that it's not the not in the morgue where he finds my Vater ...

Guten tag.
Our base in Dresden system been attacked by those Hunters scums with Military dogs. I recived call and moved there. Enemy forces were consisting of two Bounty Hunters Gunships-Bottlenouse type (If Im spelling it correctly *grins* well, they are dead, so lets just dont care. *grins again*) and two fighters, RM and BHG.
However, those hunter gunships were not so dumy, like though few our piloten, and made few mistakes. Fortunatly, all esc.pods were recovered, and it was only lose of techick, not people from our side.
I managed to attrack attention of BHG VHF and gunship for a while, by spinning around our base and making some hits to their VHF. We managed to kill BHG VHF, and when our heavy gunns arrived, enemy flee to their battleship. Together with Jokerz' gunship, we killed those gunships right near battleship, which they used like cover.
All esc. pods were delivered to base, and secured.

Mein Kommanders,
Allow me to present myself. Mein name is Kapitan Artemis Braun, formerly of the Rheinland Federal Police (state division). I recently defected along with a few of my fellow squadron, and have formed a revolutionary unit with the Hel Class Cruiser RHC-Schmetterling recently salvaged from Omega 15, with one Heimdall Gunship RHGB-Drachenfeld as an escort and interception unit.
Earlier today while undergoing our maiden patrol from Viernheim through to Vogtland, we encountered one trader, who was persuaded by our escort RHGB-Drachenfeld to make a donation of 400'000 credits, which have been used to purchase supplies to be delivered to Viernheim.
Upon reaching Freital base and making repairs, a Corsair cruiser showed up in the asteroid field - the sheer gall! The fools attempted to demand cargo from the Drachenfeld, but didnt count on the might of our Battle Razors being turned on their hull.
All in all, I am pleased with the loadout of the ship, and we hope to serve the revolution well in the coming months.
Message to: Kapitan Artemis Braun
Comm ID: Major Gunther Hoerst, RHA Oberkommando
Location: Freital, Omega-11
Let me offer you my congratulations on the launch of the new battlegroup. The Red Hessian Army has already seen your command in battle, and we are glad to see that the planned fleet extensions are more than capable of bringing the Volksrevolution forward.
We'll be awaiting further action reports with anticipation.
