Report One:
Yesterday I moved about Leeds in the =CR=Rogue, Thanatos Cruiser, picking off Gallic patrols away from Planet Leeds as the planet has become too problematic for my vessel to manage. I would suggest any future patrols around the planet to include a full wing of bombers or an artillery capital ship if we are to attain victory around the planet. In and around Stokes Mining Station, I lured the local GRN patrols into the asteroid field so that I would have the advantage and began picking them off. I came home with a kill count of four (4) Obstinate Class Battlecruisers, sixteen (16) Perilous Class Gunships, and a sum of thirty-two (32) Lynx Class Fighters. I captured as many escape pods as I could manage before becoming out gunned and forced to flee to friendly territory. Gallic Prisoner Transfer
Report Two:
This morning, 05:45 hours, a new Lt. under the ship callsign of =CR=Viper (//my Nyx) was ordered to my fleet, as his first mission I ordered a patrol of the Leeds system, observe and report only. Shortly after arriving there was an unusual sight, a Hessian Thor Class Bomber was sighted very briefly behind Planet Leeds. This hostile was not on scanners long enough to catch him on the gun cam. After surveying the area trying to find the Hessian, the Lt. began a survey of the entire system, finding nothing out of the ordinary at Stokes Mining Station or LD-14. Returning to Planet Leeds for one final pass, he was met with a Bretonian Privateer, a Sir Ernest Shackleton. Upon trading information, neither pilot had found anything of note until a Valor appeared on scanners. Neither ship equipped to handle such a fight, both took gun cam footage and retreated from the system. Passing through the Manchester System on his return flight home, Viper was acosted by two (2) Outcast fighter pilots, at which time the Lt. swiftly blew them out of the sky and tractor beamed in their escape pods to deliver them to CIS aboard Sabah Shipyard.

Cmdr's Notes:
I have never met a Bretonian Privateer before in my duties, it was nice to find others interested in patrolling Leeds to help in the war versus the Galls. I would like to say thank you to this pilot in particular, Sir Ernest Shackleton, for his assistance. Should any Crayter Patrols find this pilot again in the line of duty, I would recommend cooperation as not only is he assisting Bretonia and the Republic by patrolling Gallic controlled territories, but he was also very helpful even without my Lt. having to ask. This is all, of course, as long as the pilot is not caught red handed committing a crime, as Privateers sometimes do in their spare time.
