Guten tag Offiziere,


After hearing reports of Outcast forces massing in Omicron Xi, I was ordered to scout the system to see if any of these rumors were true. Unfortunately I didn't find any Outcast forces. Should these rumours be true, it would certainly weaken our Corsair enemies in the long run. The enemy of my enemy is my friend is as the saying goes? Unfortunately while scouting I got spotted by a capital ship named the CNS-Ravenna's.Sword. After ignoring their warnings it launched 2 fighters to make chase behind me.

DTR Patrol

After a brief chase I managed to lose them in a nebula cloud further north of the system. I ended up near planet Knossos. Since I was compromised in the system and they were probably blocking my way out to Munich, I decided to continue exploring this side of the system.

I found an atmospheric entry point to the planet. I'm not one to be called a scientist but the looks of it resembled Nomad technology. Turns out this planet was more of a cocoon of some sorts!. I must admit I was quite hesitant to continue, but my curiosity got the better of me. Pushing on, I noticed an old structure. After getting closer it looked Nomad-esque as well. It seemed destroyed and abandoned a long time ago. The main structure looked like a station while the side structures seemed something like a stationary turret tower or some kind of generator. I added the footage in this file in the hopes our intelligence and scientists can make more out of it than I can. Close to the main structure I found and tractorbeamed a pile of artifacts. I kept them in a sealed of and secured part of my cargo hold.

Planet Knossos

About to return to open space, I saw another large structure far away. Again, my curiosity got the better of me. As I already was far deterred from my initial goal, I thought I might as well go all the way. Getting closer it seemed like another old structure. This triangle shaped building looked very different and seemed like it had no relation with the other structure.

When inspecting it more closely I must have accidently activated it as suddenly got sucked into it! For a few seconds I jumped out into an unknown system. The area looked all green and blurry. Seemed like there was another reason to panic as the jumpgate sucked me back in. Jumping out in the same place I initially started, I flew away from that wretched jumpgate as fast as possible in case that thing activated itself again.

Jumpgate

I returned to open space in Omicron Xi and while going back to the Munich jumphole I tried taking some footage of Corsair bases near Planet Mykonos and Santorini. The quality wasn't that great though as I had to keep evading turret fire from their defenses. Thank God the dreadnought didn't linger any longer at the jumphole.

Omicron Xi

Returning to Munich, I dropped off the footage and Alien relics at battleship Schwerin for research purposes. Continuing to New Berlin I cargo checked an OSC-vessel under the nametag "Cordial". The captain of that ship was certainly talkative and too curious for her own good. While initially only seeing luxury products, I noticed propaganda papers on her ship. She claimed to have no idea what it was. Checking one of the papers it had pictures of our military ships and parades on it. The text was coded and indescribable to me. The OSC Captain finally seemed to remember she got this from a Unioner. As Unioners can't be fully trusted, this was highly suspicious.

Propaganda

Before I could resume questioning the OSC vessel, I got a hostile incoming on my scanner. Seemed like a Corsair under the nametag "Tiberius" wanted revenge for the battle that happened in Munich a day earlier. I rushed to the battleship Kolleda as my first priority was to secure this intel. I managed to reach it and docked before the Corsair could catch up on me. Let's hope the decryptors can make more of these papers than I do.

Giving the papers, I went back into space to deal with the Corsair treat. Despite dealing some damage to the ship I got bested and my ship got disabled. Luckily the Kolleda was close enough to tractor my pod before the Corsair could capture me.

Corsair

It was an eventful day and I hope that both intel can be of any use our beloved Rheinwehr. I finished off the day with a Rheinbier at Kolleda while my ship is being repaired by their lovely crew.

Für den Kaiser! Für das Volk! Für Rheinland!

Hochachtungsvoll,
Gunter Kunrad
Oberleutnant der Kaiserlichen Rheinwehr
