Unto His Majesty the King-Emperor of the Lyran empire does His loyal subject send greetings!
Majesty, since the day of your inspired decision to create a fifth duchy with myself  as Duke I have wasted no time.  The reaction force you bid me to create has been assembled and already dispatched to address the areas of greatest concern along our borders.  As you will note in the detailed report the reaction force, while impressive, will need to be expanded to cover the entire border.  If I may be so bold to suggest that the various counties benefitting from my duchy’s efforts make a contribution in kind? 
And now, with your leave, I offer my report on recent activity along our borders:
Dragon Attack #796:  Due to a navigational anomaly one of our ships arrived in a system controlled by our Federation neighbors.  It observed several space dragons ravaging a planet before immediately returning to its assigned sector.  It is unknown whether their presence was noticed, no Federation ships were on the scene but they could have been out of range of our sensors.  If our ship was detected we may be blamed for the dragon attack.  We must increase our vigilance along the Federation border. Lyran victory
Technology Sabotage #800:  We received intelligence that the Vudar were planning to kidnap several key scientific personnel and their equipment. There were no combat ships available but we did send a Rakazan of troops to protect the personnel against abduction.  No kidnap attempt was made and the Rakazan has returned to its home base.  Lyran victory
Colony Raid #801:  A border colony reported "suspicious activity" by nearby Vudar.  No ships were available to investigate but nothing untoward has occured to the colony.  Lyran victory
Planet Crusher #802: This monster was successfully diverted to a Klingon system by the valiant crew of the DWS Mister Snoofers.  The Klingons were unprepared to repel the monster and it destroyed one of their planets (as we anticipated, the expected condolences have been communicated).  Our next step is to exploit this catastrophe to foment rebellion among Klingon subject races.  The cover story for the presence of our ship is that the scout was gathering intel to help us deal with our own Planet Crusher.  If the Klingons figure out our real plans we will have a serious conflict on our hands.  We should consider taking the initiative soon and go on the offensive to control where and when our forces meet.  Lyran victory
Planet Crusher #803:  The FLG Hello Kitty was able to destroy the monster unaided.  No damage to Lyran assets planetside.  We have offered scientific information gathered during the encounter to the Klingons to aid them should a Planet Crusher attack another of their systems.   Lyran victory
Cargo Tug #804:  The Klingons are engaged in their own nefarious activities.  A tug carrying  critical components needed to refit and expand our reaction force has been intercepted by a group of their frigates.  We did not want to draw attention to this shipment and so had only dispatched a second tug to share the load and speed completion of the journey.  Fortunately our tugs are well-armed as the loss of this shipment would be devastating.  At the time of this report our forces were about to engage the Klingons.  Unresolved at this time
Space Boars #805:  Knowing the devastation that can be caused by these terrors, our carrier group was dispatched supported by the mauler STT Furminator.  There was also a risk of Klingons making an appearance as they are known to be fond of hunting space boars.  No Klingon ships arrived, at least not before our forces had hunted the boars themselves.  Lyran victory
Hostages #806:  We received weak intelligence that the Klingons were planning a search-and-rescue mission for some kidnapped VIPs.  We don't have any of their people so we gave the intelligence little credence and nothing came of it.  Scenario dropped
Banshees #807:  A Kzinti Base Station came under attack by space banshees.  We considered dispatching a ship to help ensure destruction of the station but ultimately decided against it in light of our subterfuge with the Klingons.  We are not yet strong enough to antagonize multiple enemies- but that will change in time.  Kzinti victory
Marine Rescue #808:  I took charge of this mission myself in my flagship Battlecruiser Mittens.  Maries were successfully rescued, no Kziniti forces encountered.  Lyran victory
I will dispatch an update when we know the fate of our cargo tug.
