To the captain of the ship 13centkiller, he is to return IMMEDIATELY to Livadia shipyards, to be put under trial.
The charges:
Violation of the general order that states that no AW ships must remain in Tau 31.
He got ordered to leave the system twice. Once by the general order, and again by me in person, while on board of an AW covert ops ship. Still, as of today, his ship is still docked at Battleship McDuff.
It is also rumored that he engaged and destroyed a neutral ship with no provocation, and in Tau 31, outside of AW jurisdiction.

(Really, I speak terrible English, so please, tell me if I make mistakes. I'd like to improve it a bit )
The captured Liberty Cruiser, Sigtryggr has been repaired after the damage it suffered in our scouting mission months passed. We tested the ships durability and engines on a trip through Alaska and out to Magellan, where it will be put to use aiding our allies against the SA and LSF.
Battle Report
The Sigtryggr had arrived in Alaska when we received knowledge about a large SA and LSF force in California from our allies in HF. We sped up, reaching the Magellan Jump Gate under a minute after the LSF/SA force had used it to enter Magellan. We jumped in to find roughly five fighters engaging our forces. We began firing on the fighters immediately, keeping them busy while the Harbinger fell back to Freeport 4 where it wouldn't be restricted by asteroids. I took command of the group, and had everyone else follow the Harbinger to keep our force in one group so we couldn't be picked apart. We were left with just my ship, and an HF gunboat. The Mentu or Smash I believe. I had him begin to fall back as well when the Ultimate Warrior jumped into the system to aid us. He aided me in harassing the fighters until the HF was regrouped with the rest of the group. The Ultimate Warrior and I began to fall back ourselves, when a Rheinland Cruiser named Malk jumped in. Mercenary-aligned, I do not know how it got the Cruiser from the Rheinland Military, but it was obviously not working for us.
It opened fire on the Ultimate Warrior, pounding it. The Ultimate Warrior was crippled, and almost destroyed. We fell upon the Malk with a vengeance, finally testing our finely turned forward cannon against it. We got its attention turned away from the Warrior, and dropped its hull in seconds. It appears it did not have any armor beyond what a newely-built cruiser has. As soon as its shield dropped we took its hull down to a third remaining, even after the cruiser used up all of its repair bots. It used some energy-storing batteries to recharge its shield, but that only delayed the inevitable. We dropped in quickly, and fired the last shot from our forward gun, causing the ship to explode.
Before we could be grateful, the Malinka a Rheinland Battleship came in. I'm disturbed by how easily people are gaining access to the Rheinland Military's ships, but thats a discussion for another time. It began pummeling the already-damaged Ultimate Warrior, finally disabling it before we could bring the Malinka's shield down. Seeing no way of being able to destroy a battleship and five fighters ourselves, we made our way to Freeport 4 where the HF had finally finished setting up a defensive position. We positioned ourselves within it as well, near the battleship Harbinger.
An SA gunboat, the Washington came into range via the trade lane. I warned that it might be a distraction, and that everyone watch their scanners to see if any other hostiles begin closing distance as well. The gunboat was almost destroyed when the LSF fighters arrived. Our shield began to fail, but shortly afterwards the Kana Keiko appeared, destroying the crippled gunboat, as well as two LSF fighters with a volley of flak. Now, the rest of our gunboats massacred the remaining fighters, one falling to the Harbinger.
The LSF force was left with nothing but the Malinka, who did not get closer than six kilometers. The recently-arrived NovaPG, Starscream, as well as one of the HF gunboats and myself hunted down the Rheinland Battleship. We caused it considerable damage, but it fled into cruise. We following it until the asteroids forced the captain to turn the cruise engines off. Our gunboat was finally able to keep it disrupted long enough for us to whittle away at Malinka's hull long enough for the Malinka to lose its repair bots, shield energy batteries, and the stock hull down to 50%. Once again it fled, finding open space. It made way to Freeport 4 where it cowardly docked.
The LSF and SA now finally understand we are in this war, as if Major Nantz' bomber raids had not been sufficient evidence. We are now joined under a group commanded by Admiral Soren on board the Chimaera, with Major Nantz in his bomber, and Aurelia Silvan in her new fighter.
I have received complaints from a 101st member... Apparently he heard babbled conversation from an AW battleship... I do remind you that consumption of ALCOHOL or ANY non-medicinal drugs is STRICTLY prohibited... The ship shall not be "Named and shamed" but, I want to avoid any losses because the Commanding officer is off his head on Cardamine, this is simply unacceptable.
END OF MESSAGE
OOC: Please, don't randomly babble on to people in system chat, especally if its just OOC crap that is in fact illegal. As I said, no names for now, but, I'll have Dab chuck you out if your not careful, you know who you are.
Comm ID: Supreme Admiral Val'ren Broad-wave Broadcast to all Asgard Warriors receivers.
I've heard reports of unauthorized communications whose origins is one of our ships. I released an order before prohibiting any system-wide and unencrypted broadcasts that were not connected to official AW business. I'm releasing a copy of the order to all ships. Make sure you read it this time.
Short report, but to the point. I left Freeport 11 today to hear an RoS trader being chased by two TBH fighters. I followed to Gamma to engage where I found one of the TBH come back from Theta where he had given up the chase for the RoS. I engaged and damaged the Titan severely. It ran to Crete, where an OPG Taiiden and another TBH Titan came to assist him. It was a 3 vs 1, but the enemy Taiiden was completely unsuccessful in hitting my fighter with Novas. I dealt the bomber enough damage that it fell back as it was unable to damage my ship. I began taking down the two Titans rather quickly afterwards until 2 SCRA and a Phantom got involved.
Seeing no reason to hold back after being attacked by another 2 Taiiden bombers and a corsair Gunboat, I used my Nuclear mines. After only a few passes, one of the Titans blew to pieces from Nuclear mines that I had laid down. A few minutes later another Nuclear mine took another Titan. I destroyed another vessel, but am unsure of their identity as I was too busy fighting the horde of enemies. Soon after that third kill, a second Corsair Gunboat arrived. Still in my single fighter, I couldn't have hurt either gunboat, or had much of a fight with the other Taiiden Bombers still there while being shot. I retreated to Theta, where they did not follow me. I lost nothing beyond about a dozen nano bots and my shield batteries, and left the defenders three ships less, and in the midst of a civil war as they began to fire on each other.
The patheticness of their defense makes one thing clear; We will have no more problems than we have had so far in dealing with these Corsairs. Perhaps one of these days they will grow a brain and accept our peace proposals.
Liberty Rogue GB Valgrind is ready to go on the frontline.
High concetration of SCRA/TBH pilotes in Omicron Gamma.
Other Corsair factions spoted araund Omega systems.
On my way to Theta from Newcastle,I recurited 2 pilotes,that are being trained as we speak,Vanir(hoodlum on Disco forums)and Raptor.
Raptor recived his Eagle and our war advisior got him full equipment.
If anyone see AW tagged char Vanir please further him to his Eagle,and waepons if possible.
The Mandos and the Caedo Successfully engaged and killed two Corsair ships, namely the Sephardi (a Titan), and the Ximen Benitez (An Osiris).
They passed through Theta towards Alpha, where they meet the Caedo. That forced them to return to Theta, where they meet the Mandos.
After a quick battle, the Mandos was ordered to head to Alpha, where the Caedo engaged the Osiris.
Not long after our battle in Alpha begun, the 101st ace Lope Rainerio showed up, and engaged our foes, who retreated into Theta, where the 101st could not follow us due to their policies. Unfortunately for the Corsairs, the Caedo had cruise disruptors, and prevented the Osiris from escaping further than the Omicron Alpha jump hole in Theta.
Meanwhile, the Mandos made quick work of the titan with some humble ordnance. The fighter pilot never knew what hit him, as a bunch of missiles hit him at the same time, lowering his shields, and setting off the nuke minefield that was all around him. Not even the loot survived, but it is presumed that the pilot managed to beam out before the explosion.
Going back to the Osiris, it was blown up by the Caedo, whose more efficient Outcast weapons ate the Osiris hull in no time.
Pictures of the flight recorder will be uploaded as they became available.
