We brought the Bluker in for its standard refit/crew leave at Wolfsburg last night after a patrol out to Casablanca base last night. After i secured the ship and saw the work crews off I took command of the Panther for a presence patrol out to the Omega 11 system.
Upon arrival I met up with a freelancer flying a pirate transport near Freital base and stopped him.
It seems he was joining the Hessians and setting his ship up to raid omega 7. I welcomed him to the revolution and moved out. Soon after he was fully setup and flying our colors.
A little while later this new Hessian was providing intel, scouting the local area.
Our first contact was a Corsair dread operating in our space. I knew the Panther was no match for the capital but I also knew he couldn't damage the gunship unless we let him. We shadowed the dread all the way to Gamma where we broke off.
The second report was a titan traveling past Freital. We intercepted him and found that he wasn't worth wasting time we could be using to engaging more meaningful targets. (read recruit ID)
We met some traders that were using Solaris station for reloads and received some credits for our time. They were surprisingly compliant.
Next, I took the Panther to omega 7 to take on some Kruger ships. Evidently they have good scouts and fled the field as soon as we arrived. Just then we happened upon a Republican convoy headed out of system with a shipment of gold.
I ordered my gunners to fire and we demolished the convoy and salvaged a entire load of gold that we brought back to Kassel.
On our way back we encountered more traders who ran as soon as we moved into the area. Looks like the very presence of our forces is now a complete disruption of our enemies operations.
We are currently rearming for a new go at the omegas.
