I. Meeting with the Auxesia
II. Gallic dmuggler interdiction
III. Coalition Military buildup in the Omegas
Abteilung I. In Hamburg system, near the jump hole to Thuringia I encountered three Auxesia fighters. Apparently they were supposed to meet Direktor Enfield and thought it would be a good idea to go to Thuringia. Fortunately I intercepted them before they jumped otherwise this meeting would have been much shorter.
The Auxesians brought us a number of good news and some minor but nevertheless concerning developments. Firstly, they said that the Unioners are currently focusing in Kansas system which is very good as that makes them Liberty's problem for the moment. Furthermore, they informed us that Bretonia has declared war on the Battlegroup. Considering that Bretonia was their most powerful ally in the region, I expected we would be discussing this development, however it was barely touched. Bizarrely enough they believe the Gaians have persuaded Bretonia to attack Auxesia. According to them, the Gaians are manufacturing warships and they believe they may attack Rheinland from the Omegas. They failed to provide any evidence to support these extreme claims.
After that we discussed the important matter of cooperation of secondary Marinenachrichtendiensts vessels with the UN|. They had much more material this time which they delivered in a private communication to the Direktor. Then they asked information on Unioner capital assets and the Direktor provided them with as much information as we have currently available. They took interest in the destroyed Unioner Bismarck and we proceeded to the Vierlande area along with the Auxesians. As it was expected, Union patrols started surrounding us so we didn't loiter for long but returned to the safety of Alster. The remaining conversation was idle and sometimes mindless chatter. One thing to note is that I asked them why they are not working with the LSF since they are so keen to destroy the Unioners and they informed us that they are hostile with House Liberty, detailing some of their crimes. The most important parts of the encounter are attached in the report.
Abteilung II. While in a routine patrol I encountered a Gallic trader named Garona|IDF smuggling firearms, which according to him were obtained from The Ring. What was weird was that he was travelling from the Stuttgart Jump Gate to Bonn Station, not the other way around. When he saw me he frantically tried to dock at Brandenburg but that didn't work out. Eventually Borkum arrived and tractored more than four thousand crates of firearms and ammunition. For the Büro, of course.
As for the Gallic trader, since he cooperated I decided to let him go with a formal warning. Here is the entire documentation.
Abteilung III. During a patrol in the valuable Omega-2 mining fields I picked up some faint signals. I decided to investigate and a few minutes later I uncovered a Coalition modular base named Khabarovsk Station, not too far from Leisi Protoplanet. The station is very basic and in a weakened state, even a small force can take it out if the Oberkommando orders its destruction.
Personally I believe that it is vital for Rheinland's interests to not give the Coalition free reign on the rich natural deposits of Omega-2 system. Uploading map location.
BDM|U-101: You're approaching the quarantine zone. BDM|U-101: I don't exactly take too nicely to that. A/)-Revenant: I take it you heard the door bell. -------------------- BDM|U-101: We picked up some activity over there. Doesn't sound good, but a Unioner expansion? Thats a little far reaching. A/)-Leviathan: We received word from a reliable source of a pending strike. A/)-Revenant: Gaians manipulated the Bretonians view, somehow, perhaps they've even got links into the Government. BDM|U-101: Aren't you in... The western quadrent of the Independant ring? A/)-Revenant: regardless, all of these groups are linked to the Corsairs, and that is awful news. BDM|Agt-V.Landers: Source? What source? A/)-Atalanta: Classified, sweetie. -------------------- BDM|Agt-V.Landers: That's up to Direktor Enfield to declassify. A/)-Leviathan: Geoff? A/)-Atalanta: I think Geoffy will be good with it. BDM|Agt-V.Landers: Please be more respectful to the Direktor of the Buro. A/)-Leviathan: I have nothing but respect for Geoff. That's why I call him by his first name and not Mister Enfield like I used to. A/)-Atalanta: The history of the Buro and Auxesia is better than you think, Landy. BDM|U-101: Sorry, Tac-comms went lively down my ear. Anyway, Information on the Unioners. A/)-Revenant: Naturally, I am not expecting you to come up with an entire database from memory, but we believe it might be fruitful to coordinate surgical strikes in the future. BDM|U-101: We've encountered several ships of notable class. BDM|U-101: One was the... Weird vessel that they somehow stole from an incompetent MND pilot. A/)-Leviathan: Weird how? BDM|U-101: It was like some kind of EW ship, electronic warfare. BDM|U-101: Looked old and rigged up with duct tape n' bad welding. A/)-Leviathan: That Spyglass you mentioned or something else? BDM|U-101: Yes, that's what the scanners said. A/)-Revenant: The Sirene? A/)-Leviathan: It's antiquated regardless. The Spyglass was succeeded by several new iterations of the technology that originally made it special. A/)-Leviathan: Knowing the Unioners, they probably tried to convert it to an Intermix propulsion system and fried fifty percent of their power. BDM|U-101: Anyway apart from that we encountered two cruisers. Hel Classification, I'm sure you'll come across those rust bucket often. A/)-Revenant: It is to be expected that the Unioners utilize Hels, Donaus, Oders. A/)-Leviathan: We've received reports of them making use of Rheinland Battleships. Bayern-class. BDM|U-101: They had a Bayern class, it was totaled in their attempt to take over Veirlande. A/)-Revenant: Walking Planck, for example, is a Donau that has a cloaking system installed upon it. A/)-Revenant: It may be worth quickly investigating. -------------------- BDM|Agt-V.Landers: Ja. BDM|Agt-V.Landers: I want to ask why the Auxesians do not approach the LSF. BDM|Agt-V.Landers: They are currently sending their forces in Bering to deal with the Union. A/)-Revenant: Liberty has a disliking for us. A/)-Leviathan: We stole a Dreadnought from the Republic a long time ago and frequently violate their airspace. A/)-Leviathan: That about sums up why the LSF and us don't communicate.
