Transmission entrée...

Bonjour.

Pardon for le delay. Mon vessel has been heavily miscalibrated after our lastest sortie but heavy ionization levels, et retrieving data from it required some work.

So as you may know thanks to le royalist's propaganda machine, I've been involved in intercepting a GRN transport carrying casualties from the Taus.

Obviously, they twisted the truth to fit their own needs.

The vessel in question was carrying 1000 people aboard displaying as casualties, but also a complement of 25 royal marines aboard.

-Transport cargo scan-

The transport claimed to be an ambulance, but the presence of those armed personnel raised alarm in both me and le pilot of Bombardier 1. Recognizing the threat these highly trained potential murderers could pose in the future with the many deaths to both les free gallic people and sirian innocents, we requested the ship to surrender those troopers. However, the vessel's captain refused at first, claiming they would stop "Council terrorists and maquis from boarding the vessel." This is false as you'd know, if le vessel did not carry this cargo we we'd have let it through, and maquis... they would just have blown up the ship as soon as they saw it's tag.

We kept attempting to reason with the transport, requesting it to drop the marines for us to fetch or hand over the casualties for pick up and more timely treatment. but it stubbornly refused to comply, stalling our attempts to reach an agreement for the sake of keeping these armed personnel, causing the wounded passengers to go untreated and several to perish on board. Obviously, the stance the captain took put more lives at risk, so I activated mon ballista cannon as a last resort and announced intend to use it, should she keep stalling the situation and cause more deaths.

Seeing the situation's lack of progress, we lowered the demand to half of the marines in hopes that we'd manage to lower the threat somewhat, but she only launched six off. I picked them up, then the situation went back to stalling. Eventually, she decided to attempt to escape with the rest of the marines. Bombardier 1 and me gave pursuit, firing cruise disruptors to avoid their escape into the royalists' stronghold in Burgundy while a friendly transport was en route. Mon ship was heavily ionized, however, et I couldn't keep up with the ensuing combat. I had set course to Macon base in an attempt to recover from the severe ionization, but mes systems went offline et the autopilot flied the ship all the way back to the last recorded docking stop with offline controls: Freeport 10 in Tau 37.

I had lost contact with the bombardier and the transport, but the six marines were still in ma possesion, so I flied straight back to Roussillon.

Here are the logs of our entire encounter with the royalist vessel, the parts involving combat might be highly scrambled due to the high ionization levels, however.

Comm log

As vouz pouvez see, the severity of brainwashing on the GRN's forces has made them unable to even measure the value of lives. The marines I managed to pick up are currently on Battleship Pamiers, held as prisoners of war rather than dead as she apparently believed.

-Royal marines captured-

The situation could have gone a lot better, I believe. I hope mon report helps clarify the situation et can help show the truth about the actual events that transcurred.
