TO Rear Admiral Pellew,

CO TF72, ESS DiGriz

FROM Captain J Rackham,

ESS Agamemnon

======================================

Sir,

I have the honour to report the capture of the Draconian C5A auxiliarystarship 'ISS Invincible'.

In accordance with your orders I took the ESS Agamemnon to intercept the unidentified ship now know to be 'ISS Invincible'. At interception I ordered the 'Invincible' to heave to. The 'Invincible' complied but then transmitted a microwave signal towards the M25. It failed to stop this transmission when ordered. I fired the HELL battery to disable the 'Invincible' and ordered the 257 EMR to capture the ship.

First interrogation of the prisoners discloses that the Draconians have a 'fleet', number of ships not given. The Draconians have recently captured a new 'flagship', no details available. No intelligence has yet been disclosed about the target of the microwave signal.

Unfortunately the commander of the 'Invincible' was killed in the boarding action.

Investigation of the 'Invincible's' log is under way, and the ship is being repaired.
