Command,
Another vile Hessian bites the hypothetical dust. I was flying on Corporal Soporiv's wing, when he detected a Red Hessian Army [RHA] ship in Dresden. We quickly made our way there, I through the Jump Gate and the Corporal through the Jump Hole. We systematically searched the system with no luck, but luckily as we made our way back to the Jump Gate, the Hessian started boasting of his conquests over the public comm channel. Playing a hunch, I went for Vogland, feeling that was where he'd be heading. When I got into range of Vogland, I saw a small blip on my radar. There he was, a RHA bomber designated [RHA] Dietrich.Rikhard. I radioed my position to Herr Soporiv, and not wanting the Hessian to get away, I engaged. With the advantage in agility on my side, I got in behind him and stayed there. It was evident the pilot didn't know much beyond jousting, and was unable to shake me, nor get around to fire on me. As my honipvers turned his shields and amour into swiss cheese, he began to circle Vogland in an attempt to give the stations turrets a chance to fire on me. Alas, the Hessian station is weak and their gunners are obviously nearsighted, as they were unable to put even a single shot on me. I continued on the Hessian, and inevitably, he was destroyed.
I was sitting in the hanger with the techs when the system warning alarm sounded. I launched in my wraith to find Maria Banderas at the Sigma JH, I procceded there, but she retreated through. Instead of returning to th eplanet, I decided to camp out by the tradelane for a while. Much to my satisfaction, about 5 mins later, she jumped back thorugh in pursuit of a trader and his escort. I jumped her quickly as the traders escort laid down cover fire to stop her from escaping. I quickly gained the upperhand and stripped her of her inferno. She inevitably sucumber to the escort and my combined fire. My only regret was that the escort got the kill shot. Although, in lew of that I was able to take home quite a trophy of the battle. Upon docking and checking my cargo hold, I found that I had tractored in Marias Inferno cannon. Quite a trophy indeed.
