Lost Star Vigilantes: Final Contract & Action Reports

[Sol]

This is Sol Fenrir with the latest action reports.

-
We have found an Outcast liner who was passing through Taus, who admitted to being a cardamine smuggler and a slaver, also a cookie seller. So we decided to take that one down.

Ө - Ө

-
I found a cardamine smuggler in Tau 23 and gave a long chase to him all around the system. Once I caught up with him, he didn't want to drop the goods so I dropped his transport instead, destroying 2459 units of cardamine afterwards.

Ө - Ө - Ө - Ө - Ө

-
These Outcast Tridente and Pirate Gunship were found causing trouble together in Tau 23 near Java. Our Vigilantes scrambled a bomber team to deal with them quickly, while the IMG forces were dealing with another Tridente just a little bit further from us. They were destroyed quickly and the damage to our forces and allies were minimal.

Ө - Ө - Ө - Ө

-
A Storta class Outcast Destroyer was passing through Tau 23 and as soon as it got in our scanners we gave it a chase. Caught it in 31, we quickly tore it apart to make sure it can't cause any trouble.

Ө - Ө

-
A Tridente and a Sabre were found in 23, picking up fights, in different times. The sabre ran to the freeport and the tridente was destroyed quickly.

Ө - Ө - Ө - Ө

The summary of our reports for this period is as follows:

Vessels Destroyed by LSV: 68
Vessels Destroyed by Allies: 7
Vessels Forced to Dock: 14
Slaves Rescued: 400
Cardamine Destroyed: 15142

Uh... okay... this is Cassandra I haven't done one of these before so um... bear with me if I don't do it so well.

Anyway, first up three Tridente class gunboats were laying seige to Java. The Lost Stars recieved the emergency call and two of us undocked along with an Order agent and an IMG gunboat to deal with them. Two were killed and the third was forced to dock on Java.

Uploading Attatchments: 1 2 3 4 5 6

Next we ran into a couple of gunboats in the IMG mining fields waiting around for miners to bother. We sent them home in escape pods.

Uploading Attatchments: 1 2 3 4

Next we have a slaver 'Nikon' who's been... problematic the past few days. I encountered him once in Tau-23 and chased him pretty far with Karl and Arma before we finally brought him to a halt afterwhich he agreed to release 2000 slaves to us. We let him go after that... maybe a mistake since we ran into him again. He was a bit more... noncompliant that time and it took a bit of convincing in the form of several SNACs to his hull before he complied and released 1984 slaves. Again we let him go with his ship still intact. My guncams malfunctioned during our first encounter with him so unfortunately all I have is when we picked up the slaves.

Uploading Attatchments: 1 2 3 4 5 6 7 8

Uh... let's see what else is... oh, okay, we ran into a Outcast Battleship in Tau-23 and chased it into 37 where we broke it. Not that that's necessarily a bad thing.

Uploading Attatchments: 1 2

After that we tracked down a slave convoy. There was a salvager, a pirate transport, and a bactrian. We managed to nail the bactrian and rescue 515 slaves and take them to Freeport 10. The other two made a run for Malta and we chased them into Alpha where an Outcast battlegroup was waiting for us. The slavers escaped but we managed to destroy a Tridente... it's not much consolation though...

Uploading Attatchments: 1 2 3 4 5 6 7

Okay... last one I think: we found a cardamine smuggler in Tau-37, he didn't want to give up his cargo so we had to chase him all the way to Tau-29 before we destroyed him and 3039 units of cardi.

Uploading Attatchments: 1 2 3 4 5

Alright, that's it... Oh wait, there's one more thing Sol told me to add... where is it... aha, here it is:

Summary of reports for this period:

Vessels Destroyed by LSV: 75
Vessels Destroyed by Allies: 8
Vessels Forced to Dock: 15
Slaves Rescued: 4899
Cardamine Destroyed: 18181

That's everything now. Signing off.

This fella flying a Falcata bomber was found around Java, was in 8k range, and was probably scanning your miners to cut himself nice deals. I undocked as soon as heard that and started to escort him back to Malta. In 37, he didn't want to continue and said that he wants to drink a beer around Freeport 10, thinking that the zoners care about him, and he could use that imaginary NFZ against me. He was so wrong, and after he visited his pod he was so angry.

Ө - Ө

-
It started with two gunboats being troublesome in Tau 23, and soon a Storta appeared to help them. With an IMG and the help of an Order Gunboat, they were taken down. We extended our patrols to Tau 37 afterwards and caught another Storta, which was sent to hell as well.

Ө - Ө - Ө - Ө - Ө - Ө - Ө - Ө

Cassandra found a slaver in 23, and after the slaver refused to free the slaves, she shot the guy down. We started to carry the slaves to safety, but two XTF aligned ships appeared and bothered us. At that time we could save most of the slaves, but because of the XTF, some were lost. Me and Tavish rushed in to punish them, we were doing pretty good as another appeared. Soon the XTF were shot down and the other was forced to dock in the Freeport. Out of 3790, 2910 slaves were rescued.

Two outcast Tridentes were causing trouble in 23, Tavish and IMG forces made quick work of them.

Ө - Ө - Ө - Ө

The rest are outcasts and troublemakers we shot down in Taus as were doing our regular patrols, mostly unrelated to each other.

Greetings.

Ehm, yes. I think I have to apologize for not checking my schedules and for missing that payment deadline. I guess the reason is that I am caught in a very complicated, private situation that you have seen a small part of. It's however bigger, sadly. But that does not justify neglecting allies.

The transfer for two months is being made while we are speaking, seeing that we are already approaching the second month's payment deadline. It was a simple oversight and I hope you can just forget it. I will add a few credits for compensation, which hopefully makes it easier to forgive and forget.

You are doing a great job in the Taus and I have been told that things have calmed down as far as smuggling and human trafficking is concerned. I congratulate you for this success and I wish you and your flight crews all the best.

Johanna here to report the latest activity and the results by our oporations in the Taus.

Not so much time ago, there were some Outcasts, who thought visiting Tau 23 would be a good idea. However, their attempts to do their usual business there was prevented by Tavish and some IMG and BHG support units present there.

LSV: Tavish.Degroot.|*
[color=#000000]Allies: Kevin.Johnson - IMG|Java.Two
Targets: Jose.Rodriguez (Neutralized) - Ian.Fleming (Neutralized)

* * * *

At another day, we went to Omicron Alpha to follow some Outcasts to their home, in their attempt to restock. Not prepared for a larger force, three Colonial cruisers and three of our own ships, they went down quickly and eventually fled to the cloud or other stations in Alpha. However, we managed to take out some enemy vessels while being there.

LSV: Tavish,Degroot.|* - Countenance.|* - Nebula.|*
Allies: Carnelian - Tupolev - Belial
Targets: Nunzio'Cervantes[101st] (Neutralized) - 81-S|Torro.Trait (Docked) - Kvoller (Neutralized)

* * * * * *

Back in Tau 23, our cleaning job wasn't done yet. Several Outcast vessels were spotted, so we decided to show them their way home in their escape pods.

LSV: Tavish,Degroot.|*
Allies: Escort.Ship - Spearhead
Targets: Dead.Already (Neutralized) - Ultra_Killer (Neutralized) - Orange.Haze (Neutralized) - Cacafuego (Docked) - Melissa.Luiz (Docked)

* * * * * * * * * *

That was all. The summary follows...

Vessels Destroyed by LSV: 95
Vessels Destroyed by Allies: 9
Vessels Forced to Dock: 21
Slaves Rescued: 7809
Cardamine Destroyed: 18181

Dear Lost Star members,

I have been informed about the loss of your leader and I would like to give my condolences. I have also been told that the Lost Star will disband or has already disbanded, which is sad but I can understand the development.

I want to extend a hand to those of you that worked so hard, risked their lives for goals that are so close to the IMG's and now do not know what to do and where to go.

Lost Star members will be employed by the IMG| without many questions asked about your past. Having been part of Lost Star is proof of loyality enough for me. You are welcome to continue what you started in a different way.

I want to end with words of gratitude: not only the IMG Defense pilots thank you for your effort and your passion in combat, but also the freed slaves and those who never got into contact with Cardamine due to your cargo interception efforts. Thousands of people you have saved from harm. This is something you can be proud of. This is something that - hopefully - compensates for the bitterness of loss.

The IMG will uphold the health services offered to the Lost Star members, if you are in need of anything, the IMG has not forgotten what you have done and will not forget.

If you need anything, let me know. My door will be open, always, for those who put their lives at stake for our common goals. You have my com IDs, call if I can do anything for you.

Good luck, wherever your path may lead you.

Jack Henderson
