I'm here to report on events which took place yesterday. While flying through the Colorado system, I ran into an LN patrol of 2 fighters, one bomber, and a capital-class ship. Seeing as I was alone, I fled. I was followed by a fighter and a bomber as I made for the Ontario JH, using Ouray for cover. Two ships were outside Ouray, one of the Hellfire Legion's fighters, and a xeno by the name of iMenas. Both ships engaged the LN, so I turned around and fought as well. Unfortunately, the other fighter showed up, and it wasn't long before they decided to focus their fire on me. I managed to take out one of the LN before my ship got too beat up to continue the fight. During my attempted retreat, I was forced to eject.
:::Enemy engaged:::
Engaged by: XA-Egg.Eater, [HF]-Jimmy.White, iMenas
Engagement location: Colorado (just outside Ouray)
Ship Type: Fighter
IFF: [LN]-Rohj.Teerin
Outcome: DESTROYED (He dodged well, but once one's hull is damaged enough, a cruise disruptor can be used to get around good dodging)
Evidence:
Said the pirate to the merchant: Your money or your life?
Merchant: What was the question?
Pirate: Pay or Die!
Merchant: That's not a question.
Pirate: Hand over 2 mil you corporate flunky, or be atomically disgronified!
Merchant: Sorry, I can't hear you, too busy docking.
Pirate: Wha... Dang it. *Turns to the new recruits* And that is why you shoot the trader who refuses to cut his engines. You just have to make sure you asked them to stop, and threatened them properly before you space them. Also, record your conversations in case the dead come back to complain. That's how it works here folks. Now go out and cut yourself a piece of the corporate pie!
