After action report:- 23/01/835 A.S.
Subj: Omicron Patrol

Good evening,

During a patrol within Omicron Pi, Venator Vengeance and me came across a rather significant Order force pushing into the system. We immediately went into silent running and took a position not too far to monitor their movements. It almost seemed like they were searching for something or someone. Three Order vessels entered the system, but four left. Most of the ships were seemingly part of the Eclipse Vanguard, at least according to their transponders. A single one, a pilot flying a Defender was bearing a transponder I have not seen before. 'OBSC'. Their IFF was flaring up as Order. It is possible that they are a new group within the Order. It was also carrying something in it's hold that was emitting a nomad signature. Sadly, I wasn't able to scan any of the ships. The possibility to end up being revealed was too high. Not against such a force. I will attach the fleet composition below, at least of the ships that were in range for a quick, brief scan. In addition there was also a Corsair capital ship that immediately cloaked upon entering the system. A consul class that disappeared and never showed up again.

A little bit later we went into Omicron Delta and made our way to the Freeport. We halted at around fifteen clicks as we've spotted, presumably, the same Order group once again. They have acted rather hostile as they were gathered right around the Freeport. Elaine, my AI, has seemingly scared them away by stating they should not initiate hostilities within the No-Fire-Zone of a Freeport. The captain of the Geb ended up being humbled by his superior as they completely withdrew.

The Archangel and the Titania have returned to Theta for now.

Sakura out.

[23.01.2025 21:41:08] E\V/-OCV-Bennu: Michael: We got some new signature on the radars. All battlestation, code yellow.
[23.01.2025 21:41:08] A/)-ACV-Archangel: "According to the local zoner laws, you are not to use the Freeport for a staging assault on -your- enemies."
[23.01.2025 21:41:34] A/)-ACV-Archangel: "Which according to my scanners, you are about to do. Would be a pity if the Zoners were informed."
[23.01.2025 21:42:08] E\V/-OCV-Bennu: Michael: But it will be a little bit pretty if you leave.
[23.01.2025 21:42:17] E\V/-Dim'Mak-6: ??? : We just came to re-arm and refuel, Dont mind them Agent

[23.01.2025 21:43:05] E\V/-OCV-DERS-Escort-1: V: You right about laws. But your suggestion about attack nothing more than your fantasies. Remember about presumption of inn?
[23.01.2025 21:43:42] A/)-ACV-Archangel: "You are Order, we are Technocracy. It would not be a surprise if every encounter ends in hostility."
[23.01.2025 21:43:57] E\V/-OCV-DERS-Escort-1: V: Yeah yeah
