Bonjour,
After leaving Agincourt, the Royal Vauquelin moved through the Tau-31 system with no issues. We entered the Tau-23 system and got word from the Guillestre that a large force of Colonial ships had appeared near Java Station. Why the miners would let the Colonials move close to Java station is beyond me, as well as the miners ignoring the Royal Navies presence and docking up visual contact. With the miners docked, several other Colonial vessels made their way towards Java, likely to do the same. Alongside Celice Sylvianne, I destroyed two Colonial fighters, as well as our squadron disabling a gunboat. As their forces fled to the Tau-37 system, we pursed and dealt with the rest.
Once again the Miners have shown their disloyalty to us, leaving in the slightest face of danger and -what seems- housing our enemies. I advise we respond with haste.
