This is Captain John Khatri reporting about a battle that took place today in Omega-3 and a battle that took place today in Magellan.

I took the Aegis on a patrol through Omega-3. As it usually happens, I spotted an enemy ship near Freeport 1. It was a Corsair Murmillo-class. The name was the Zaulutia. They were armed with a Heavy Mortar, a Nightmare Torpedo, Corsair Primaries and Corsair Secondaries. We attacked them. We were winning slowly, but at that moment a Red Hessian Jormugand-class by the name of Orszaghaz appeared. Both of them stating they hated the Armed Forces, for the sake of satisfying their emotional needs they joined forces. I issued an SOS call to the Central. Deckman George Teeze of the Merchant Navy responded, and was soon there with a Challenger. The two pirate captains were, apparently, very inexperienced, and the Orszaghaz was not as armoured as I expected a Jormugand to be (albeit still very formidably), so, thanks to the speed and agility of the Aegis, we managed to outmaneuver their fire and slowly destroy them one by one. Teeze was providing useful support with his CD and Scorchers. The Aegis suffered serious damage at the end, but we managed to emerge victorious and return to Bretonia Proper for repairs.

But the more important reason why I am writing this report is what happened in Magellan. Our border patrols alerted us about a possible invasion of Manchester, so we gathered a fleet at Planet New London. As the invasion was not happening, and we managed to gather a large fleet, I decided for a preventive attack. We moved into Magellan with three Dunkirk-class, one Hydra-class and several strike craft. There were also two BPA strike craft in our fleet, but they stayed in New London to maintain order. We only saw one Valor-class and one Cougar-class when we reached what was left of Freeport 4. However, I received a report that one of the BPA strike craft in New London was destroyed by an Obstinate-class, so I sent Flag Officer Martin Beck of the Fortitude (Dunkirk) back. When he moored in Manchester, he switched ships, and took command over the Aegis. I also sent a certain Johny, a reservist with a Challenger, and Marcus Boone of the Merchant Navy. The Gauls in Magellan then received an Obstinate -class. By the time I was done with my tea, and attempted to communicate with them several times. Each time I only received silence. Thus, I ordered the attack. The Valor was destroyed first, followed by the Obstinate. The Cougar was gunned down by the Crayter gunboat, contrary to my orders, which were to save ammunition, as we had strike craft of our own for the job. Another Valor, called the Gaulgall, then appeared. Our other Dunkirk, called the Vigorous Incompetence for whatever reason (whoever is in charge of ship naming, please take a look at that), had a green crew in need of experience, so I ordered them to dispose of the Valor in this controlled situation. They did so nearly flawlessly, but I must mention that the Gallic captain and crew resorted to underhanded tactics out of desparation -- namely, they fired at a Council bomber that was standing still (and failed at destroying it), and they attempted to fire at the Sovereign, which i was in command of, when we were in an unfavourable position. However, they failed at that, too, inflicting us but a scratch on our paint. Flag Officer Beck reported that the Obstinate from New London was dealt with. I expect Beck to do a more detailed report on his action.

This was not the most important part.

A Gaian Guard gunboat by the name of Raven was present during the battle. Several Auxesia strike craft and one of the Hellfire Primary Fleet attacked it. Because of our non-aggression pact with the Gaians, I ordered them to cease fire, but they refused. I did not want to cause any greater incidents, so I demanded nothing further, but promised to have this recorded. An audio recording is in an attachment below.

PS: The Council pilot suggested we make a lend-lease contract with ships, after seeing the Aegis. The Admiralty should expect a message from the Council.
