Didn't have time to make a status report yesterday, as all the Naval Forces personnel was quite busy due to the last events.
So here it is...
I was assigned yesterday to escort the Emperor along with a large fleet, including Hogoshans, Naval Forces and Imperial Guard.
I was soon assigned, along with the Destroyer Ebisu to move forward and secure Sigma 19 jumphole in Honshu system.
We caught on our scanners several GMG ships but they quickly vanished.
We discovered why as soon as the Satsuma arrived and ordered all the fleet to jump to Sigma 19..
It seems the guild, seeing that large fleet, decided to set up an ambush just for us. Fortunately, the Satsuma was able to cruise to Sigma 17.
However... Two Hogoshan vessels were destroyed out there while they were securing the Satsuma's progression...
I talked with Kaduya Shinba... Seems the pods of their crew were tractored in time before the fleet proceeded to Sigma 17.
The Noble one finally arrived at Kurile without much trouble but sadly he had to dock quickly as many hostiles showed up, trying to break our defenses.
Sadly... A while after, we lost the battleship Ryujo. Rescue vessels are looking for survivors as i write this report.
As we were still fighting traitors and guild vessels, the Rheinland fleet finally showed up and they helped us to clean this mess.
Well... They tried at least. I have to say those traitors pilots are extremely skilled and fearless.
Only one of them was destroyed by our forces, and i believe it was mainly because his thruster was too damaged to work again.
We finally received the order to fall back and land on Kurile. I decided to stay for a while, as the Rheinland fleet was still fighting against several hostile vessels.
However they focused me at some point and damaged my ship to the point i had to fall back.
Currently taking a break. I'm afraid we may have to defend the Emperor very soon again.
To conclude, i'd like to emphasize the exemplar role Hogosha fulfilled, their vessels supporting Naval Force fiercely.
