Konnichiwa. I have been sent up to the Nagano system after one of our ships reported seeing damaged Samura ships coming from Tomioka, with some holes that seemed to be more than just rock impacts on the hull.

Initial surveys of the system revealed nothing, and I was about to call it a day, when the men at Shibukawa mentioned seeing some Junkers passing by from time to time.

Since they were likely coming from some nearby place, I followed the information of the Farmers, as they are more used to the region, and headed to this... Freeport 10.

Wouldn't you know, there was a Junker there, designation JM|-Scrap.Hammer in some sort of big fighter.
Of course our conversation got tense, and I wasn't able to muster a response about his presence there before some buffoon called Argo decided to intervene.

That the Junkers would try to buy off some poor sods to make their dirty deeds show that sometimes Junkers care to avoid putting their filthy hands in every turd of a situation they come upon. What I wasn't expecting was that poor sod was flying some sort of armored transport with a cloak, and decided to "to cash in on the various Junker bounties for them!" with a barrage just 10 meters from the Freeport.

The Argo wasn't an issue in the ensuing fight, but the Junker was flaying missiles by the dozen, or just about every time he could turn that ship of his.

Admittedly, I wasn't able to counter that, and eventually those missiles did their number on my fighter.

I return to Misaki in a miserable condition, but not completely defeated. I hope the information provided will be useful to counter this menace in Nagano and surrounding regions.

"Honestly, what were those guys from Nagano doing, to let the Junkers come so close to our space?" *he mumbles as he closes the transmission.*
