Konbanwa,

I hereby report of an incident in the Tau-37 system.
Santo Kaisa Ji-yeon Hwang entered the Tau-37 in his Wyvern and gave me - I was just about to give the newly calibrated "Nova" Launching System on my Umibozu a field test in Tau-23 - a call that he initially ran into just two heavy transports operated by a Golden Chrysanthemum Cell and an Outcast bomber. A detailed ship list will be included below.
To keep it simple, after a most tiring, for Cardamine addicts most typical senseless conversation, a third heavy transport appeared and a fight emerged. One more heavy transport, this time operated by the Outcasts, appeared during the skirmish and engaged us. Following the appearance of a Ranseur-class Warship, the heavy transports slowly fled the scene. Due to the sustained damage on our side and a lack of more firepower, the heavy transports - though damaged - managed to escape.

With the notification of the IKN-Kaga, the proud Takeda of the Emperor's Fangs being on its way to us, we kept the Ranseur-class pinned.
Together with the IKN-Kaga we countered every obstacle in our way this day. Soon after the first crucial hits on the Ranseur-class, Chrysanthemum Vessels and an Outcast Fightercraft - one by one rapidly - started to flood in and joined the battle.

Before I come to picture the end result of this battle, I shall list all involved vessels below including their last known status.

This battle in Tau-37 turned into a glorious victory for us - where we, through minimal numbers but maximum efficiency turned a considerably larger force into dust.
Hwang-san's loss could have been avoided but the removal of this pests holds a higher priority than a retreat and giving them an opportunity to flee. Most unfortunately, despite his best efforts, Hwang-san's Wyvern suffered too much damage throughout the battle to take on a fresh-out-of-the-dock Fightercraft.
Due to the distance between me and this duel, the subject also managed to flee the scene heavily damaged. Hwang-san returned to the Nagasaki onboard the Kaga.

That is all for today.

In the name of the Emperor and its people, we shall stand vigilant.

Ii. Umakai Miwa
