SUBJECT: Hamburg stroll
ENCRYPTION: Default
PRIORITY: Low

This is a report based on a small excursion to Hamburg involving 4 of our vessels; =LSF=Ghost, =LSF=Black.Talon, sidewinder2.0 and obviously myself.

We set out from Bering in a wing of 3 Upholders and a Guardian. Once we reached Hamburg, we received word of a Liberty Navy dreadnought in the system, the LNS-DarkShadow*, which we promptly met up with as we continued our search for a stray RNC vessel or two.

We, however, definitely didn't find something stray. At Planet Hamburg, we located a sizeable force of about 2 Battleships, 3 Cruisers and 2 gunboats. They managed to intercept the Darkshadow before it had a chance to flee, forcing us to enter combat. Short and bloody, the Darkshadow was destroyed within minutes, who also accidentally nailed down Black Talon with friendly fire, leaving Ghost, Sidewinder and myself. In a bit of a desperate attempt to give some payback, we took a quick hit out on the two gunboats, destroying both of them, before Ghost gave the call to retreat. The three of us got out with no more than a few scratches.

Code:

Death: RNC-Eule was put out of action by =LSF=Ghost (Gun)
Death: U-13 was put out of action by =LSF=Ghost (Gun)
