Greetings High Command!
My simple patrol in the Suttgart system turned out into a bloody fleet between the RNC and a Group of Corsair Legate Capital ships. Now as in why the Corsairs would go this far for a fleet engagement in Rheinland is way over my head of understanding, to me; their just a bunch of cannibal eatting crazies. So anyway I joined in with the local defense fleet and provided CD support to prevent any of the enemy ships from escaping. And that I did, I laid down CD support for almost everyship in the fleet, and before we knew it our Capital Ships annihilated the Corsair fleet at point blank range, there were no survivors at all. After the Battle was over I finished sweeping the area of any leftovers scum to take out, if found. Within the Berlin system there was supposed pirate activity in the local tradelanes. I found one near the tradelane between Essen and Bonn Station. There I meet Gefreiter Sarah Braun and a Freelancer Vessel helping us with the offensive against the pirate. We drove them into the field and soon we found ourselves fight near the Junker Base. Of the Pirate force there was a Corsair bomber that was doing hit and run tactics against our Freelancer comrade. I intercepted the bomber and destroyed him before he could dock with the Junker Station. All that was left was a Gunboat that was making a run for it to another field. I was able to dock with the Stausberg and quickly mount on my bomber to deal with the threat. None the less the Gunboat was outmatched 3 to 1 and was defeated. With my victory I returned to the Strausberg to board my fighter and host along with Gefreiter Sarah Checkpoint duty at Bonn station. Unknownly enough we had guests that arrived near Bonn. Bundies. They stayed a few kilcks from us and sent radio messages to yes while we were at the checkpoint. A sort of young wild bunch of pilots if you ask me. They didn't break laws or anything they just wanted to talk to us and party. And I admitt that my Co-pilot Sarah Braun was sort of lured by them to drink a bit; I warned her; but she did drank anyway even though I asked her not to. To bad I couldn't order her.... if only I was a Feldwebel yet! But anyway I remained at my post and we had some interesting ships come by. First we had a Freelancer Vessel that was carrying criminal Weapons aboard their ship, Sarah asked for the ship to haul and drop the weapons. But instead of complying the freelance just shot at as without a word. So Sarah took a bit a of beating because of her intoxication, so I had to step in and destroy the freelancer myself. Another interesting ship that came by was a small transport vessel hauling Copper ore. I stopped the ship and ordered him to drop the cargo for breaking the Embargo Laws. He comply and dropped his cargo. But to my foolishness he only partially dropped some of his cargo to trick me. By the time he was entering the Stuttgart Gate Trade Lane from Bonn station I scanned him again and realized my mistake! I went after him leaving my post, I was determined to kill this Copper Runner making mockery me! I Chased him all the way to the Omega-7 Jumpgate, where he was held up by gate traffic. There he tried to make a last minute ditch effort of dumping his cargo but I saw it. I quickly destroyed the cargo and hit his engines, and damage his hull. He made thr jump to Omega-7, but I was relentless in my hunt. After the Phase Jump to Omega-7 he didn't make it that far from the gate before I gunned that rat down. Bah! When I returned to my post at Bonn I found my Co-pilot Sarah drunk and hammered out and being a chatterbox with the bundies partying. And to no uneventful surprise Admiral Guther Rall himself showed up. Im sure it was to be a major embarrassment to myself and my Co-pilot. Thankfully enough the Admiral was more focused on the bundies then myself and Sarah. So with the help of the Admiral we were able to subdue the Bundies, and so they got tried so they left without a shot being fired. But I did want to see some action against those bundies, nothing more then rebellious citizens of Rheinland that can set me off towards enragement of their actions. SO when the Bundies left I got granted request from the Admiral to dock with the Strausberg to end my patrol. That's all.
