[color=#FF0000]Great Victory, Great Victory!
Today a large Corsair force moved on Alpha. They proceeded through Eta, and managed to pass our interdictor force at Palermo with relatively minor losses. Malta's Planetary Defense Grid, still unfinished restocking from the assault two days previous, was withheld from firing. Instead the fleets were dispatched, and a combined operation with the Red Hessian Army, Reaper Squadron and the 66th Fighter Wing ensued. Their slightly superior numbers were, as expected, absolutely no match for the sheer skill of our pilots, and special credit goes to Miguel Marron and his crew on the Browning for their excellent kill of the last two Colonial fighters, callsign Panzer, who, with Bellerophon, decided to involve themselves halfway into the engagement.
The battle commenced in high orbit above Mallorca, where the three Corsair Gunboats were quickly dispatched by volleys from the Alhambra. After destroying one more of their bombers she was forced to pull out due to engine troubles. Shortly afterwards, a bomber, callsign Sunslayer, was destroyed. Its pilot, believed to be the infamous Elder Montoya himself, was tractored and flown back in the hold of the only Titan that survived the fight long enough to run. At this point the odds really started to turn against the Corsair filth, but the Colonial Remnant decided to rear its ugly head, and presented more enemies; unsurprisingly, they both died at the skillful hands of Browning. By the time our forces had finished the Corsairs were left with a scant lone Titan, running for dear life into the Taus with its cargo of tractored Traitor pilots. Outcast losses totaled a single fighter. A suitable payback for that attack several days ago, methinks... Everybody, EXCELLENT job out there. Bonello out.
