Bonjour Madame et Monsieur,
Im bringing you a report from the situation that was solved by Royal Navy about 24 hours ago.
During a rutine patrol in Gallia core systems i have detected newly deployed station on the high orbit of planet New Paris. Base was settled there without any permission since there was no data about it in Navy database.
The base name was confusing as it was called "Royal Munisions", but its not that easy to trick sous-Lieutenant of Kings Navy.
Following standard procedure i have examined the base status as well as its defencive capabilities. Ater that, instantly reported my discovery to HQ.
First ship that has arrieved was RNS-Leclerc on which, as ordered, i docked and watched rest of the operation from behind its captane's shoulder.
Before rest of backup fleet has shown up in IDF, Leclerc was forced to jump into Dauphine system.
The reason was two Brigand gunboats belonging to +LE+ group, that was brawling across the sector. Captaine of Leclerc quickly ended their run. Unfortunetly enemys of the crown, criticaly damaged, menaged to escape.
This is the audio log of Colonel Alphonse Josse assigned to patrols the Front Battle Field Edinburgh.

Subject: On my way to Castres
Bonjour Madame et Monsieur,
I had equipped my fighter at Avallon and headed to Castres to recive my first missions as GRN member.
I was passing Gap station in Dauphine system when i meet Wikus.vd.Merwe an ship with IDF ID.
i had scan run thru his cargo and this showed up
I commanded him to stop but he engaged cruise engines and headed to Provence jump hole. I menaged to stop him right in front of it when i recived a message from IDF-Normandie
.
i scanned this ship to and he also was in posesion of contra band.
Than some terrorist Maquise ships engaged me. I did order IDF ships to stay put while i deal with terrorists but they used that distraction to flee thru jump hole. I oblitareted those terrorists and moved to Provence to fallow IDF ships. They gained to much time advantage, but i did detected them landing on Planet Marseille. Right before they landed they even called me a pirate?!
After that i set my course to Edinburgh system as originally planed.
One question do IDF has contract with GRN about this contraband goods? If it has i was not familiar with it.
This is the audio log of Commandant Salomon Christophe reporting aboard the [color=#33FF33]RNS Charlemagne. Today marked an exciting day for Gallia and a grim day for Planet Leeds. I started today's patrol-in-force in Edinburgh. I then formed with two other Gallic capital ships, RNS-Bourreau and Loyalist|GCV-"Helghast". As I believed we had sufficient numbers to attack Planet Leeds, I ordered the ships into the Leeds system for a raid. This raid would become an invasion very quickly as the Valors Gaucherie and RNS-Bay.of.Lions joined in the assault. Some small craft also joined us: Silver.Reaver and RSF|Martin.Chevalier being among their number. I should also note a Gunboat by the name of RNS-Loire joined later in the assault. At first I began logging all Breton ship deaths, but I then realized the list would require too much data to send, but some are as follows: QCP|Fiddler's.Green and BPA)Ins|A.Constable. Our mighty fleet holds the planet and our ground forces are preparing for an assault. Let us hope this ground assault goes better than the prior ones. Video Data included in full report. For the King and Gallia, we fight. End audio log

This is sous-Lieutenant Girard, the Communications Officer of the RNS-La.Victoire.
Shortly after the randevoux with the Castres in Edinburgh and the final equipment checks of the ship, we disengaged from the Castres in order to perform system trials in the form of a quick patrol around the system.
After we took off, a ship of unknown origin was spotted on the scanners, motionless. The La Victoire then closed to investigate the ship, which turned out to be a Libertonian pilot within a Kusari exploration ship, which amounted to no good in La Capitaine's eyes. Said ship also sported some indentification codes which are to deemed "Pirate" at the time of writing. The exploration ship sat motionless, facing the Castres, and failed to vacate the system during the scanning, which turned out to be pointless. The La Victoire powered her shielding and weaponry, and engaged the pirate-spy, who was shortly destroyed afterwards.
Suffice it to say there were no malfunctions in any systems during the patrol, none of my money was wasted.
Now submitting weapon camera footage.

// First report, and I'm still getting the hang of roleplay here, I know I forgot to photo his ID.
And that the pictures suck.

Today I received my newly outfited Lynx Royal fighter and I am pleased to report it is very impressive indeed.
I was keen to try it out on the front line, so I departed from Dijon Station and made way for Leeds. Upon my arrival I had a nice look around, it did not take much time to attract the attention of the local police force. An officer of the Bretonian Police Authority made contact with me by demanding that I leave the system. Of course I did not conform as no outsider has authority over a Naval Officer.
Upon closer inspection of his craft, I noticed that he was holding two (2) members of the Royal Navy as prisoners, this enraged me. I demanded that he release them at once. He attempted to arrange some sort of deal with me, whereby he would release them if I agreed to leave the system. I considered it, as what mattered most was the safe return of our men, but soon come to the conclusion that if need be, I could free them by force.
All of my weapons were ready to go, when out of no where came a Mercenary... A Reaver to be precise. He greeted me and then offered his assistance. I politly declined as I was unsure of his intentions, however after a few moments he opened fire on the Police Officer, disposing of him in a matter of minutes. He then tractored the Naval personal on board his ship but just as I was going to open fire, he sent them my way. I thanked the Reaver for his free services to the Crown and was on my way back to Edinburgh when another ship caught my eye...
This time it was a freelancer with a Armed Forces signature. I decided to investigate and soon my suspensions were confirmed. This "Babijan" was alsoholding Naval personal, one of which included a Gunboat Captain. I approached the freelancer and demand their release, I am happy to report that the freelancer made the right decision.
All four (4) members of the Gallic Royal Navy are now safe aboard The Battleship Villeneuve
That is all for now

I am very glad to report that the Flagship, Chant du Cygne, has risen. Her overhaul at Dijon was finished promptly, and it is ready to face the Bretonians, as well as any other enemy of the Crown.
Now, let us crush Bretonia, with the Chant du Cygne as the tip of the spear! Bretonia will be singing it's swan song soon enough!
In service to the King, and the Grande Marechal!
