Messieurs et mesdames.

I'm bringing wonderful news from Tau 37. Our Cruiser patrol consisting of one Obstinate, a Cougar and 2 Lynxes left from Guillestre at 1800 to do a routined Tau patrol. 30 minutes later, close to the Tau-23 jumphole in 37, we encountered a large Council and CR force consisting of another Obstinate, one bomber and 6 fighters. The odds weren't on our side, but we went in without any doubts.

Their capital vessel fell down first due to their bad coordination and our quick attack before they could organize their forces. Our Obstinate, La Rochelle, was heavily damaged and had to retreat. The rest of us, consisting of me and Marie on Lynxes and Shikizumi on the Cougar, took on 7 enemy snubcraft. Due to our superior skill we picked them off one by one. They were going down very quickly, and before we even realised it - we killed them all. None of us got destroyed in the end, even though Marie lost all the repairs and her ship was barely holding together. We all went back to Guillestre for a resupply. A great victory in the Taus for our side.

For the Crown, and for the Kingdom!
