COMM ID: Charles.Manson
SUBJECT: Reconnaissance Mission

Today , after a few patrols around the Liberty Systems with fellow AiT Daniyal Altaf, we were ordered by Phantom-1 and Banshee-3 to regroup at Battleship Missouri. We established a secure comms channel with the higher ranking agents and got briefed about a reconnaissance mission that was about to take place. It sounded simple enough: "Get to the Nomad home worlds and gather as much information about them as we can" . We arrived at BS Missouri and Formed up on Phantom. From there we immediately headed towards the Alaska jump gate. We had to go trough some nomad vessels on the way to the Omicron Minor jump hole but it was nothing we couldn't handle. We arrived at Omicron Minor and the place looked like hell. Dust particles were messing up the comm. channel and visibility was very poor witch made the huge rocks floating around a real challenge to dodge . We flew by planet Toledo on the way to the Omicron Zeta jump hole. The planet was devastated with volcanic eruptions all over the surface. We made it trough the the hole and headed towards the Iota jump hole. It all seemed fairly easy until we got to the Hole and it was guarded by two Nomad weapon platforms, which packed a lot of punch. We had to be hasty and successfully proceeded trough the hole. What I saw on the other side was indescribable. Seconds after we arrived in the system we were intercepted by nomad ships, which were all over the place. We were all under attacked and had to split up and regroup at a more safer location. I took quite a beating on the way to the rendezvous point. One of the nomads, that was on my tail, managed hit my electronics and it messed up my on board camera. I couldn`t spare any nanobots for the camera since it looked like I was going to need them for my life support systems. Despite the sheer number of nomad fighters everywhere I managed to shake them. After I made sure my scanners were green I proceeded to regroup with my squad. Upon arrival it looked like we were all a bit shaken up but there was nothing too serious. We formed up and headed to what seemed to be an abandoned LSF Base designation "Altair Research Complex". The whole place was a wreck . The moment we got in range of the complex to our surprise nomad fighters began to launch from the station. We engaged and destroyed about a dozen of them but their numbers just kept growing. The more we took down the more they kept coming. We couldn`t hold it any longer so we formed up and retreated. Every nomad in the system was aware of our presence and we new that it was time leave the system and so we took point towards the Omicron-99 jump hole. Dodging fire and trying to stay alive all the way to the hole. We made it trough, though some of us seriously damaged we were all fine and well enough to continue the mission. We knew the worst was still yet to come so we took a deep breath and proceeded towards the next destination. On the way I managed to fix my camera with a few nanobots and shortly after we came across at what looked like a Nomad jump gate* (A) . We discovered an enormous Nomad installation**(B) right next to the gate which lit up the second we got in range of it. We had to fight for our lives again and I managed to collect some nomad organic remains surrounding the installation**©. After gathering enough information we decided it was time for us to head back to Liberty. The jump hole we came trough was too far away considering we were all under heavy fire and barely keeping formation so we had no choice but to take the Alien gate*. To our surprise it took us straight back to Iota and fairly close to the Omicron Zeta jump hole. We broke formation and headed to the hole as fast as our severely damaged ships could go. We all made it to the other side and took point towards Omicron Minor jump hole. There were little to no alien fighters in the system so there was no problem getting to the hole.
Shortly after Omicron Minor we made it to Ellesmere trough Alaska and we successfully docked at Grise Fjord Shipyard for repairs.
