This is Julia Morrow, reporting two convoy runs that were very very big. I lost count of the ships, but there were many. We did the Omega 7 > Kusari > T23 > New Berlin > Omega 7 run with a mixed group of IMG| and ALG| ships. {AFC} were escorting us skillfully.
But, you really want to see this!
Fireworks, when around 10 transports light up a gunboat.
Obviously there was no way that the Ahoudori could take this kind of punishment.
It blew up after being chased by the transports and the escorts, while the Gunboat escort was keeping the second Gunboat in check. It was taken out by the escorts alone, while the convoy regrouped.
Even the standard pictures of this run look pretty good, I have to say. Here they are:
In Tau 23 we were threatened by the Junker Marauders, who did not attack, but their big numbers would have made mining impossible. IMG Defense was scrambled after the convoy's Hedgehog-formation worked well to discourage any attacks. After that, the Marauders were beaten back and the convoy/mining activity resumed.
