Broken Shamrocks, Broken!

   Last week a torrent of bullets ripped apart Planes, buildings and innocent people! The Pirate Gang 'The Broken Shamrocks' were beaten out of the sky by the brutish Fighting Daredevils (incorporated). "And if that wasn't enough" said a Spokesman for the French Airborne Foreign Legion, "They strafed civilians who were having a barn dance in one of the hangers! Murderous fiends, will they stop at nothing!".

   In an interesting turn in current affairs, French Louisiana and The Republic of Texas are in talks to have a temporary truce (While Texas goes for Dixie it seems). Part of this 'allegiance' will include a coalition of their respective resources, to bring the Fighting Daredevils to justice.

C.C.C.P Seen Overhead!

    A Hell's March of suspicious aircraft and Zeppelins were seen overhead yesterday, in Roswell, Arixo. Pirate turned Pirate Hunter, Chogan of the Thunderhawks reported to say "We have yet to confirm it, but our spotters think they had C.C.C.P marking on them" When pressed on the matter he said "Russians? Well...I have my suspicions."
 

Massacre at St. Ives Hospital

   Broken glass covers the street outside. The acrid smell of spilt floor cleaner is everywhere, thankfully it covers the smell of all the cadavers laid out in the street. Emergency forces rush in and out of the once proud hospital, which still burns in its torment.
   In a malicious terrorist attack on downtown Dallas last week, the Town Hall, St. Ives Hospital, The Police station and several government buildings, were all attacked. St. Ives suffering the worst of it. The Pilots came around for another pass to fire rockets into the Maternity Ward and many of Texas elite on the 6th floor. Emergency staff think they've found a survivor and are quoted as saying: "But, I think he's a damn Red Russian." 
  The pirates suspected of this attack are the Fighting Daredevils, and the Texas Air Rangers have declared an all out attack on them. "They won't be able to set foot in a civilised settlement with that price on their head!" Laughed a Marshal who was on the scene.

Coe is "Ready for Revenge"

   "I will see to it, that those motherless dogs! Those wretched Urchins! Will lie rotting at the bottom of the sea, once I'm through with them." Jackson Coe told reporters today. "Mr Jackson Coe is not best pleased at this current moment" explained his correspondent.

   One of the, if not, the most esteemed businessman in Texas, C.e.o. of 'CoeOil', advisor and personal friend to the President, has every right to be angry.

   Our resources tell us that he received a 'ransom note' for his daughter, Jesse Coe (Seen Right). She was last seen at a Formal Gala in Dallas. But, informants say that she is known for her wild spirit and may of been at the Broken Shamrock's dance, when the Fighting Daredevils stuck.

  "Nobody takes my property, and gets away with it!" bellowed Coe. While the Texas Air Rangers are mobilised to find Miss Jesse Coe, her father roared that he is "Read for Revenge!" 

   Story Continued on pg. 3, along with suspicious pictures of the illustrious Miss Coe herself!
