Today I did another patrol alone, a very short one, I need to admit.
I started at Battleship Moselle, like always and headed to New Berlin. At Dortmund Station my scanners detected a DHC vessel and a hostile vessel chasing it. The captain of the DHC vessel informed me, that a corsair was behind him, so I went after them. I ordered the corsair to stop, but he refused. The DHC captain tried to keep his ship out of the corsairs range, so he always docked at the next trade line as soon as he could. That made it hard for me to catch up with them. I finally almost had him in firing range, but other RM vessels already eliminated him. I asked the DHC captain, if he had any serious damage, but he said, he was fine.
Right after that, I could see, how a Rheinland cruiser ordered a freighter to hold, so that he could scan him. It was obvious, that he wasn’t a real Rheinland Military pilot, because he identified himself as “RM-Ivan”, not as “[RM].Rank.Name” and because of his Freelancer-ID.
So I told him, that he wasn’t allowed to have a cruiser vessel in Rheinland space and I ordered him to leave. I also offered him, to escort him to any border, he wanted to go.
He opened fire at me and tore my ship apart in a split of a second.
A few minutes later, after the cruiser left New Berlin, a patrol picked my pod up and brought me to Planet New Berlin.
I will (and everyone else should) keep eyes open for that guy, so that he couldn’t do any further damage.
