Natalya and I went out on what was to be a sortie into Rheinland to spread the word of the Revolution, but I was quickly waylaid by a member of The Brotherhood Skyelius. I couldn't believe it as I hadn't seen a member of the Brotherhood for months myself. Skyelius cruised up and we engaged in a short conversation, neither of us wishing any bloodshed.
I pause here because I know my superior officers will not look kindly upon this act, but my history with the Revolution does show that I am not quick to fight, but willing to when needed. This time it was not needed, and would not amount to any great victory.
At this time, I was contacted by Gottfried Halse of our Red Baron allies, and as he was coming to my position, Elder Sephardi showed up and started his usual ranting. Gottfried's appearance didn't help matters with Skyelius, and soon it was a full-fledged firefight.
Natalya Didn't fair too well in the fight against the more fleet ships of the Corsairs, and also the re-enforcements that arrived from seeming out of nowhere. Allies of the RHA and RB fleets, as well as Luis Gellantra arrived to fight the horde, but in the end a full retreat was called when the Reapers of Sirius also showed up and started attacking our fleet. Why they keep allying with the Corsairs I just don't know.
Combatants list: Allies: Red Barons Klaus Stortebeker and Godfried Halse, RHA Alfred Wagner, Gunther Hoerst, Markus Klaus, Adolph Hessler, SCRA Luis Gellantra and Alexi Karchov
Yes my comrades, that is eight allied pilots against sixteen enemy pilots. A two versus one ratio. Loses were minimal, and the retreat to Ronneburg was successful.

Retribution and revenge is needed. Today's battle in Omega 5 demands that we strike back at the Corsairs. Their numbers seem to never end, but we can stop their rampage through the Omegas.
I leave it to you my Rheinland comrades to plan an attack on the Corsairs. The Coalition will always be there in support of your call.
