Today had some interesting events. As I was sitting down to have a drink with Capt. McCool, we received an urgent broadcast indicating that long range sensors picked up Nomad signals. Within minutes, had the Ingenuus prepped and ready for flight. Once we undocked from PSP, we joined with the Defiant, pilot Jonathan'Roberts, and the Phoenix Media ship. There also was a Zoner Alliance home ship, the Alabama, assisting in the defense as well, as shown here. Eventually an Order pilot, call sign "Bombyx" joined as well.
After the Defiant and others patrolled the stations perimeters, a K'Hara scout showed itself. It flew within 8 kilometers of the station, and quickly left. After regrouping, we decided to follow and prevent a larger fleet of nomads that were amassing near the Iota JH from coming to our station. When we reached the asteroid field near the jumphole, scanners picked up no enemy ships, as shown here.
Defiant and pilot Roberts scouted some more, and eventually found the nomad ships amassing near the Delta jumphole. Then started the fight. Among the nomads that engaged us, I was able to pick up individual signals from the Nomads, chiefly K'Hara|K'Lunara and K'Hara|Naaru. We unfortunately had a causality when the Defiant was hit with one of our main guns from the Ingenuus. Luckily, we were able to tractor in his escape pod, so captain Danger is safe and sound. Soon after, we had Repair-Vessel-101 come in and supplied us with much needed nanobots and shieldbots to help us against the bombers attacking us. After a long and rather uneventful battle, the Nomad fighters, outgunned against our home ships, fled back to Iota. Besides the destruction of the Defiant, we have no losses to report. Phoenix Spaceport is safe and sound for now.
