Gentlemen and women,

I'll provide a brief report of the mission that lead the MN vessels Albion, Twistet Sisters and Fidelity along their escorts till Omicron Kappa.
The motives of the operation were [redacted], surveying the wreck of the Fearless, a Clydesdale class that was lost in omicron Theta, where it was recently found by Auxesian forces as well as delivering a sizable load of Nacranite to Corinth Research station.

Before we started off we loaded the ships with supplies for the long way and eventually headed towards the omegas, hoping for little resistance.
Sadly we ran into forces of the SCRA, RHA and Corsairs who coincidentally all met in Omega 3 at the exact time our mission started.
This and the loss of two escorts forced us to delay the flight and work out another plan.

The next day at the same time we set out again, this time with another strategy. Our transports would fly with their own escorts, every single one another route. One of the transports was loaded with standart issue cargo, working as a bait for possible pursuers.
My transport took the route over the upper Omegas through Rheinland and later the Sigmas. Due to the lost escorts we had to send two of the transport without any. The Albion and Fidelity were chosen, so the bait transport could hold off hostiles long enough to give us time to get through. Gladly the plan worked out charmingly and I was not once attacked in this operation.

Reaching Omicron Kappa at similar times, we formed a convoy and delivered the Nacranite. From there we moved on to Omicron Theta, where the wreck was to be found.
Its survey did unveil a cargo full of artifacts along some outdated weaponry. The cargo was stored in the now empty bays of my ship.
We took the sigma route back to Bretonia, picking up some military gear for the Essex in Texas on the Mississippi.
Once we reached the Essex the main convoy departed while I moved to deliver the artifacts to Sunderland for examination.

Two noteworthy things are to be mentioned. Firstly in Omicron Theta the wreck of the Fearless was extremely close to the position of an Osiris class battleship, presumably an Order vessel.
It might be a pure coincidence but if the Fearless has anything to do with the positioning of a Battleship there we should take precautions before working with the content of its cargo bays.

Secondly, I have stumbled over an old Rheinlandic fighter in the Sigmas, holding weaponry I've never seen before. I ordered the gunners to shoot it off the ships frame and then store it in the bays. The weapon will later be given to BMM for research purposes.


Attached are the guncams of the mission: I, II, III, IV, V, VI, VII, VIII, IX, X, XI

yours sincerely
Jacob McIntire
