Bonjour.
On my patrol arround Taus, I saw Outcast gunship near IMG station Java. Gunship has cardamine in cargo. Me and Java defence wing opened fire. But gunship dodged very well and docked on Cali. 10 minutes later, when I was flying arround Tau-44 I spotted GC bomber near Minato Harbor. Bomber ran and jumped to Tau-65. I ended my patrol in Sulawesi citadel.
Dwo days ago during a training mission I recieved a long range communication from an individual introducing himself as Judge-Alpha originating somwhere from the Tau systems...
The comunication went as follows:
I will await orders from the HC as to how to handle this individual and his group since they have been spotted in the Tau 23 system by our border patrols...

Bonjour!
With great sadness I must inform you that I must leave the service in Royal Navy. It was great honor to serve to our great nation. However the war we started caused too much destruction... Too much deaths of innocent people. And unfortunately I have too much of their blood on my own hands. It is not what I imagined or what I wanted when I applied to Royal Navy. And on the other side of the coin, Royal Navy don't need officer who hesitate on the battlefield. Petition have been sent to headquarters. Merci for this experience and the honor of serving among your ranks.
Comm ID: Joseph DeFrance, Crown Prince Subject: Orders; RE: Petition for withdrawl
These threats against the Kingdom shall not be tolerated, feel free to pass judgement on these so-called Judges. I'll rest easy knowing that the foolish mistake this group made will be dealt with swiftly. You have my orders to open fire on any and all ships carrying that signature.
As for Commandant Chevalier,
You service within the Royal Navy is apprieciated, and I know war isn't what you expected to be. However, the blood stained hands of yours... ours... will not come clean easily. We have to live with the ghosts that haunt us. Either way... your petition to resign from the Royal Navy has been accepted by me personally... consider yourself honored...

Bonjour!!!
Yesterday started as normal day. I wanted do patrol over Leeds, but lot of situations holded me in Tau-23. First action. Sammaran Raider was pirating Transport near Kyshu. Me and IMG defence came to Jumphole and we started little conversation. IMG defence engaged pirate and I flew to Tau-31 jump gate. Of course IMG defence could call me back. Near Orkney jump hole I found "1'Ane". Strange pilot didn't listen my orders to stop. Nothing happend after warning shoots. In communication channel I heard preparing people to life pods. After short fire "1'Ane" was destroyed. I flew back to Orkney jumphole. Again. I found Zoner spatial ship near Battleship. Battleship opened fire and Zoner flew back to safe distance. After scanning, I found Outcast pilots and Cardamine in cargo hold. Zoner said, he is Gallic trader. I didn't believe him and I sended him out from Battleship. 10 minutes later at Java. Lynx was staying at Java, when I found something. Freelancer. Freelancer had Lynx. I asked him, if he is allowed to own our ship. Said no problems and GRN aren't problems for him. And today 15 minutes ago near GMS base. Near Tau-31 jump gate I saw Transport with commodities. Train looked as base supplier. Correct. Republican transport is supplying GMS base in Tau-23. I was only surprised.
That's all. Photos will be added later. Guncam is broken now.

Again all situations in Tau-23. First situation. When I was patroling between Java nad Cali, I received informations about Rheinland Intelligence in Tau-37. He denied my offer to meet me at Java. He continued to Tau-29 where I stoped looking for him. 5 minutes later another Rheinland Intelligence commader said about Intelligence tasks in Taus. I told them, they should inform GRN High Command or Crown Prince Joseph DeFrance.
Near Java i found Renzu liner. Zoner ship. Captain of liner said that Zoners see me as murder. Then meaned situation with "1'Ane' . I said that pilot didn't listen orders, then I saw them as suspects and threat of Crown. I opened warning fire to shields, but "1'Ane! attacked me and ship was destroyed. Zoner said he will inform Zoner HQ about this situation with "1'Ane' and He will clear my name. It looks that Zoners don't like Gallic criminals.

Bonjour again!!!
Yesterday patrol was full of surprises. First one was strange ship near Indochine. Type: CSV, junker ship. He looked fine, to situation, when our GRN collegues attacked him. I couldn't tell them order to stop fire, because they were Captaines.
Pilot survived them and he flew to Java, where he docked.
10 minutes ago. I saw "Hegemon" miner ship, flying to mine field. When we arrived, I saw Universal transport and IMG miner, who was filling Universal transport. Transport had tag [*USI*], Then I stopped mining and escort that transport to Kyushu jump hole. Near Java, IONSTORM attacked us. After 5 minutes I catched him again and we flew to Kyushu. Near Kyushu jump hole, after some questions, I demanded Ore, because Transport pilot wanted sell that ore in Liberty. When he dropped ore, I destroyed it.
While ago I found Outcast and Sammaran tagged ship. I fought with Outcast and IONSTORM again attacked us. After IONSTORM I immediatelly flew back to Tau-44 where I ended my patrol.

I informed HC and other pilots in GRN about BDM| activity in Tau systems. I received message from BDM command about theirs actions. This message is for High Command and for His Majesty Crown Prince Joseph DeFrance.
Quote:Abend, Madam.
I am Flotillenadmiral Siegfried of the Logistical Support arm of the Buro der Marineintelligenz.
I have received a report regarding your inquiry into the presence of a BDM survey ship in the Taus.
In short, the Ravenholm Polytechnic Institute of New Berlin, one of our prestigious institutions of higher education, received a grant to conduct a survey on the migration of spatial anomalies and to plot said anomalies to update our stellar cartographic database. While the survey is a strictly civilian operation, standard procedure dictated the accompaniment of a Marinechardienst officer to ensure the safety of the civilian survey crew.
No contact, save for courtesy hails and message exchanges with indigenous mining operations were made, and no combat operations save self defense against several vessels identifying themselves as "Outcasts" were initiated.
Currently, ships in the area have been grounded as per diplomatic protocol upon your inquiry. While the survey teams are currently behind schedule with respect to analysis of the migration of the spatial anomalies, they have been instructed to wait for an answer from your office before resuming their work.
Further questions into this project can be directed to my office on this channel.
