FROM: Planet New Berlin TO:Kruger reporting office SUBJECT:Routine report
REPORT: Guten tag! Kurt here sending you this transmission from New Berlin planet. This is my first report and it's quite big one.
This day was exhausting and interesting at the same time. I started it by taking Silver ore from Reutlingen base; exactly (4.100 units of Silver ore). Of course I went to Kusari space, trough Sigma, sold the Silver and went to Nagano system to purchase Platinum ore from our Samura friends. I took the last unit of Platinum from Shiojiri Storage Depot, what remained there was simply dust *he smiles*. I am sure that Samura will refill it's base as soon as possible. Anyway, on the way back to Rheinland I became a victim of pirating. Two Corsair pilots came out of nowhere and discrupted the trade lane. I was outnumbered and outgunned since they had a bomber and a gunboat - it's hard to escape from that- . After I transfered some credits to their accounts continued my route. Platinum ore was safely delivered on planet New Berlin. Next thing I did was the exactly the same as the first one, the only difference was that I bought Platinum on another base. The two Corsairs again.... uh, they pirated me again. I came alive to New Berlin, landed and sold the ore safely. I again went to Omega-7 to pick up Silver ore, but this time, when I was approaching the Stuttgart planet I received a transmission from Dauman pilot. The pilot asked me if I wanted to join them and their convoy that was heading to Gallia. We made a deal in a few minutes, we gathered near Stuttgart planet and proceeded further. Everything was good until we arrived near Honshu jump gate in Sigma-13 when a pirate gunboat successfully pirated us. I have to mention that, that gunboat had incredibly good armor and offense system which we could not deal with; we tried but we ended up paying him. I set the rendevous point to be planet Honshu. There, one Samura pilot which operated in Kusari Train named "Ryuujin". The four of us went straight to Lyonnais system where we sold our ores for I must admit, good amount of credits. On the very same station where we sold our ore I sent a transmission to one GMS pilot. In that transmission I stated that we need certain amount of Niobium ores which that pilot enabled us. We all set our waypoints to Maine system. Sadly when we arrived on the station where we bought Niobium, the GMS pilot had to go.
Ships were full, transports ready and we collectively went to sell Niobium ore. All Gallic systems were heaven for us, we passed trough without confronting any pirate entities. Next system was Rishi (nothing there), Hokkaido (very dangerous radiation level in some areas), Honshu, well there we stopped near planet Honshu where DHC pilot requested escort from New Berlin. With high safety measures we approached the Sigma-13 jump gate and successfully entered the system. Our escort was only one system from us, we decided that the best thing to do is to keep moving which we did. Slowly but safely we passed the Sigma-13 system and entered Frankfurt. On the other side we met our escort; it was a Dauman gunboat. With him alongside us I knew that we are going to finish our route safely. It turned out that I was 100% right. Enormous amount of credits went to our pockets, but we did not stopped. We purchased tons of Rheinbier which we sold on Solarius station in Omega-11. To ply us Dauman pilot decided to mine Unicut Diamonds fir Samura friend and me on really minor prices, almost free. I was really tired and as soon as my ship was full with those Diamonds I went to New Berlin where I am now.
Tomorrow, I will try to sell as much Silver I can and supply our bases with needed goods. Until then.... auf wiedersehen.
