Today was another nominal day for the Rheinland house. I was put on embargo duty in the Hamburg system where I stopped several people. Surprisingly enough, most of the people that I attempted to stop or destroyed were Rheinland companies such as Daumann und Kruger. Below are guncams of some explosions by Planet Hamburg due to their attempt at running the blockade. I was in command of a secondary fleet pilot, Jonas Schmidt during approximately half of this operation. He aided me in many ways
The next patrol I set out into the Stuttgart und Omega-7 systems. We checked up on the mining operations in the sector and determined through some help of Kruger miners, that Red Hessians had recently came by and "Taxed," ie: Pirated, the miners. We quickly went into hot pursuit mode chasing the Hessians. We ended up chasing them into the Omega-3 system where we engaged one Thor bomber and one Sabre VHF. The Thor ran immediately and I tracked it to the Omega-7 system where it kept jumping back and forth between there and Omega-5 with some attempt at confusing me I believe. I destroyed the Thor, guncams below. The sabre that herr Schmidt was attacking managed to elude him. I suggested that he join the primary fleet instead of continuing in the secondary fleet, as he was a very competent pilot up until that point.
