Combat Report

The crew of the S/D-Surma got a chance to stretch her legs tonight in Cambridge. We had just finished a rather grueling computer modification, getting the IFF changed to Guild Guard. We were enroute to Rostock and stopped at Cambridge to refuel. Upon undocking, we noticed an Outcast IFF on scanners.



Turns out it was some scumbag named Scipio, and I couldn't find a bounty on him, so we engaged in some verbal battery for a while. During this time, we noticed Captain Mainwairing of the BAF come into system, and I asked him to come run this jerk off. Well, apparently there were some Molly's in the system as well, and Aubrey asked for a bit of assistance.

Guess what? It was a freaking convention of Molly's in Cambridge. Four of them had come for a visit. We had Kate.Donnely, [MR]-Ghostface, [MR]-Robert.Emmet, and [MR]-Baile.Ryan.



Well, right in the middle of the combat, a damn ion storm came through. Our computer did a hard reset, and the next thing we knew, we were back in Cambridge orbit. Not to be deterred, we headed back out for a quick patrol of the lanes, to see if there were any distressed travelers. Lo and behold, we found these four chumps back at the New London jump gate.



Since gunships are, after all, anti-fighter vessels, I told these guys that they had one opportunity to clear out of Bretonian space. Instead, they chose to fight. During the course of the combat, a mercenary that happened along, name of Sigfried, got fried. I tractored his escape pod in, since he was at least TRYING to collect the bounty. After that I just concentrated on one of them at a time, and Kate fell to our guns.



The other three Molly pilots decided that discretion was the better part of valor shortly after that, and took me up on my offer of their lives. Two of their ships were so badly damaged that they never made it out of the system - Ghostface and Ryan both found themselves in their escape pods in the hold of the third ship.

Based on what I'm seeing on the bounty boards, I think I just earned a rather decent sum. 250,000 credits from the Battleship Essex plus potential bonus, since I did destroy an independant Molly and ran 3 [MR] pilots out of the Cambridge. Plus this little bit, too:

every pilot of the Molly Republic is worth 3.5 million Sirius Credits

The first AND the second rounds are on me when we get paid for this one.
