Greetings.
Seems that Project Overlord is going well so far. We have received the backing of the Xeno's and the old armoury is willing to help us out. It's a good start. We are just awaiting the reply of a few other Squadrons and we should have enough people to stage the attack. Hopfully you'll send the Brief out very shortly to the rest of Task Force Warhammer, if the High Command whishes' to release it now. The Xenos have it already. Everything is running smoothly, so far. A Time and date is yet to be sorted but at the moment it is touch and go.

Operation Overlord Brief Wrote:
Task Force Warhammer are planning something huge and we'll need all the help we can get. Plans have been going on for months now and it's finally time to put them into reality and execute them. Our target, is the Battle Cruiser Hawaii, under the name of LNS-Hawaii. We have been studying her and her crew for a long time now, working out how they fight and what strategies they use. It is one of the newer Battle Cruisers that the Navy have with advanced technology on board the ship. Here is an uploaded report of the Battle Cruiser Hawaii.
Liberty Navy Ship Hawaii Report Wrote:Vessel Name: Hawaii Vessel Identification Friend or Foe: Liberty Navy Secondary Force Vessel Class: Intedictor Class, Assault Battle Cruiser Vessel Captain: Captain John Williamson Vessel XO: Lieutenant Commander Micheal Jax Vessel Status:Active - QRF
Ship Weaponry:
6x LCT-1d "Havok" Liberty Cruiser Turrets
1x LDF-5a "Meson" Liberty Battleship Flak Turret
2x LDH-24v "Collapser" Liberty Battleship Turrets
1x LCM-3a "Raptor" Liberty Cruiser Turrets
3x C-25 "Cerberus" Heavy Cruiser Turrets
Summary:
This new, "Intedictor" Class Liberty Assault Battle Cruiser, fresh out of "Juneau Shipyard", is the next generation glass Battle Cruiser equipped with new "Olympus Ocean Front Mk XII" Impulse Engines, "Olympus Space Frontier Mk IIX" Cruise Engines and "Rochdale Intern Mk IX"
Shield Generator. These are all top of the range and experimental pieces of equipment giving the new, "Intedictor" Class Liberty Assault Battle Cruiser, that extra edge in Capital ship Warfare. It now serves as part of the Quick Response Force (QRF) reacting to serious emergencies such as a Gallic invasion.
As you can see, she is part of the Quick Reaction Force, also known as the QRF. It's is going to take a lot to bring the ship out and thus, we need a large strike force to lure the ship out from it's mooring point. This is where the Xenos and other Hellfire Squadrons will come in. We have analysed 4 systems in which to place the attack. From our results, the system of Texas will be where we are staging the attack. The Texas Report has been uploaded.
Texas Brief Wrote:System Name: Texas Number of Planets: 4 Number of Stations: ~4 Trade Lanes?: Yes Threat Level:Low
System Report: After the war with Rheinland, the forces in Texas are battered and withered. Along with that, Texas is a vast system spreading of vast distances. There are two damaged Prison stations, under the names of Sugarland and Huntsville which will not be to much of a threat. There is a Junker base somewhere and there is also a battleship under the name of Mississippi.
Texas seems to be the best suited system for our attack. The proposed place to start the attack is far away from any Trade Lanes and help. The cloud itself will help to inhibit the Communications on the Cruiser. There is a dense scrap field to get the Cruiser to become stuck. There are also no nearby patrols from the Armed Forces. This will be the most ideal place to start the attack or lure the cruiser to.
Also attached, is the location to where we plan to lure the Cruiser away and board it. Yes, we're going to board the ship and try to take control of it. Really. Once the ship is alone, a squadron of Hellfire Legionaries will board the Cruiser from a hole that will be made in the side of it. Each deck and room will be cleared out until there are no more Navy Personal left. Once we have control of the Cruiser, all remaining Forces are to disengage and escort the Cruiser back to Fort Leniex in Vespucci, our home system, and then will undergo all repairs required and a complete system interface change so that it will be compatible with our Hellfire Weaponry.
As Most of you have already seen this, Operation Overlord is the capture of the LNS-Hawaii, a Liberty Battlecruiser. High Command has yet to decide the date and time of the attack.
I have linked the transmission above to this one, use it to get all the information you need.
The Research Department is requested to ready all their specialist equipment as they will be immediately starting their work on the Battlecruiser once it arrives.

Here we go, after a long time,
Rheinland Military and Buro der Marineintelligenz attacked Texas and as always, Cruisers, Battleships, Gunboats, Bombers and fighters. I did join Xeno wing and we launched are attack on Liberty Naval forces. In the midle of the fight Outcasts arrived too, so they went down as fast as Libertonians did... However after the battle we contacted Military and BDM. And from now, all Legionnaires can't attack Rheinland Military and BDM ships in Liberty or Rheinland. We can use them against Navy and LSF, so don't mess our fresh start.
So we were up in Colorado doing a patrol. Eventually, a Vigilante and a gunboat from the 5th fleet jumped into the system in front of us. I quickly got into gear and handled the situation as appropriate; I engaged the 5th Gunboat whilst Phantom kept off the Vigilante. The 5th Gunboat was no match for me, and I destroyed it.

So today I took out the Phantom for a patrol, On exiting Vespucci, I stumbled upon a Bounty hunter with the callsign 'Ryder', attempts to make him surrender failed...and his ship turned space dust.

Good day Command,
today I run across a Freelancer in Vespucci. He immediately attacked me after I stopped him, so I had no other choice but to destroy him
Later, I and Lennard Westbrook were assigned for a recon mission in Rheinland. We headed to Hamburg and it appears that we stumbled into a fight between the Liberty Navy and Rheinland Military. But instead of accepting our help, the Rheinland Military decided to attack us. They took out our ships and a we had to be saved by our rescue team after we sent out a distress call to Vespucci
>Incomming Transmission< >Comm ID: Isaac Ross< >Subject: Report<
Good day Command,
While we were on our own mission to gether Rewards points in New York, I and Lennard crossed paths with two, donut eating, cops. They were in Light Fighters and pretty annoying. They followed us until we lose our patience and attacked them. A bounty hunter come into the fight but I took care of him.
Unfortunately the two Light Fighters were to fast for our Prosecutor and Lennard's ship got taken out. In the end a LSF Avenger joined and I had no chance anymore against the overhelming power of the LSF Fighter and the two heavily armed Light Fighters.

Michaela, Ast here.
As i informed you in the bar, the HID has acquired two transports to operate as covert trade and intelligence gathering vessels. These vessels outwardly fly freelancer identification, but are crewed by Directorate operatives.
The first transport, the MV-Fabrica, is operational and flying. The second, the MV-Mercatura, is currently undergoing refit to be ready for action.
These ships have the reputation to gather most commodities from all 5 houses. So anything we need, they can acquire.
I've also got them on the look out for the intel data you have us hunting for.
Be adviced, all members of The Hellfire Legion operation on the Liberty Rheinland border.
All current operations in Federal Republic of Rheinland continues... However you have to work undercover from now. Rheinland Military and PROBABLY Rheinland Federal Police will NOT co-operate and will attack you. BDM seems to BE friendly... Help them if needed... Request help if needed in Texas system. However do NOT respond to RNC, [RM] and RFP| emergency calls in Bering, Hudson, Texas and Rheinland systems untill further notice.
