Yoi tsuitachi brothers and sisters.
This evenings combat report is of the joint operation between Gen'an and Outcasts 11 6 828 A.S. for the siege of Nomura Station.
The background intel that led to this conflict towards an Interspace base is believed to be the result of negligence on Interspaces part.
Our own forces involved in this conflict were;
Battleship Okayama
Battleship Tsukuyomi
Battleship Watatsumi
Kamiyama Kano
Miyazaki Yuyuko
For this operation it was required that the Watatsumi unmoored from Mito under my guidance once again as its Kaigun shōsa with Kaigun chūsa Otsuka overseeing full command of the vessel. With the ship moored at Mito once again we can offer command our report of the siege that had occurred.
The Watatsumi had arrived late as a bulk of our Gen'an and Outcast allies with the Tsukuyomi had stationed themselves closer to the target in the Seiran Dust Cloud.
Shortly after our arrival the Tsukuyomi under command of our Shogun had to depart temporarily to attend other matters.
Throughout the operation we had several interruptions both humorous and challenging.
The first of note was a freelancer vessel with the identification 'Floro' a transport that paused it's journey and remarked the besieged station to be that of a squid.
He or She then discharged their weapons at the station for a few minutes and stopped after the Gen'an had convinced the transport that this was not a safe area for them to be.
They had fortunately dispersed soon after without incident which allowed us to continue.
The second incident had occurred when small mix of Police and Naval Fighters had introduced themselves.
Their identifications were 'Gaijin-4' 'Ravage' for the Police and 'li.Seiho.Isayama' for the navy.
Though a troublesome group they inflicted minimal damage to the hanataba fleet thanks for the efforts of Myazaki Yuyuko who had aided the Gen'an greatly in the fighter fight.
In between these events the battleship Tsukuyomi had returned under it's second in command to continue with the siege.
The third incident quite bizarrely occurred with another large fleet mix of battleships, a cruiser and some fighters under the Corsair and Hogosha IFF.
The enemy ships logged of this flotilla were 'DTR-Nox;' 'HR-Dept' 'DTR-Penumbra' 'DTR-Obstinate' 'DTR-Kepler' 'DTR-Michal_Mittsury' and 'Gaiko_Gifuto'
Having heard much about the Corsairs and their crude but effective tactics the hanataba fleet as a whole were cautious but quite surprised when it turned out to be nothing more than a myth. Once their support vessel had been destroyed the capital segment of the fleet had quickly did away with the Corsair vessels in quick succession until the Cruiser remained.
In a desperate attempt the remaining cruiser had lunged towards the fleet only to have the Watatsumi from above quickly ravage it's upper hull and then finished by the Outcast Dreadnoughts superior firepower.
The fourth incident had occurred with some Gallic Royalists at first a 'Jade.Paris' had encountered the fleet gesturing random questions which had been returned in kind from one of the outcast members. This had turned out to be a scout as later they had returned in a mix of bomber and fighter squadrons. Newer additions of note were 'Aurore-V' 'Chasseur' and 'Aurore-II'
A very persistent group that had lead to patrolling the surrounding area with reports that they were attacking vessels away from the fleet in order to cut off any exterior support.
During this a transport by the iff 'Gugubell' had entered the area of operation but had quickly left after being warned not too intefere.
The Royalists eventually closed in with a newcomer 'Woriaki' 'Kamaboki.Gonapachiro' and 'Tyre' all assumed to be Hogosha and Samura affiliated.
After a long firefight they had dispersed only assuming that they eventually realised the futility of their efforts.
The Battleship Okayama had arrived at this point to lend assistance towards the siege.
After this the siege had continued well underway the hanataba fleet had cracked the stations exterior armour in which after it had folded quite quickly once it's core had been breached. With the stations destruction. With the destruction of the station the hanataba fleet had split and made way back to their territories.
