Bonjour!
Bringing to your attention my report about the small encounter that happen around Agincourt and Tau 31 systems today.
RNS Gardien under my command have been returning to Agincourt system after being repaired on the shipyards in Ile de France. Just as we entered the system we have met a wing of Liberty Navy fighters. Did not took much time for a gunboat from secondary fleet to show up, and considering the situation lacking of any threats I decided to continue my way. Though just as we reached Stokes we received a distress call from a highly mentioned gunboat. When we reached back to Tau 31 gate, there were only wreckages of the destroyed Perilous.
Following the information from Glasgow we headed to Tau 31 where we spoted a Council Obstinate. With some effords we managed to destroy the ship, and just in the moment it exploded the Liberty Navy wing have re-arrived. By this time monsieur Damien Chevalier have joined us. Unfortunately he have been preparing to meet a capital ship, thus brought the bomber. Just as the seen him Liberty forces engaged. We put our effords in protecting the bomber from unfair fight, though one Libertonian kept fleing and returning with full supplies several times, even after the fight moved to Harris. Fortunately in a pause between those runs I managed to reach to my fighter in Agincourt and come back in that fight before our bomber was destroyed. Monsieur Damien managed to flee, in order to pick proper craft for this fight and when he came back, the second Libertonian reached us as well.
The fight lasted for quite a while, but we managed to defeat Liberty forces. One fighter landed on Harris, second fleed to Leeds where we managed to finish him.
During that fight several hostile contacts were appearing, including Freelancer freighter that attempted to engage me, but was destroyed, a pilot from a criminal organisation from Kusari, known as Golden Chrysanthemums there, who did not engage our forces, and a Kusari Exile pilot who attempted to catch me on my way to intercept remaining Liberty fighter. After a fail to do so that pilot have disappeared however. There are several shots that my crews made, you may see them here:
Before I finish this report, I would like to bring to your attention that Liberty forces have been resupplying very quickly. Considering the speed of their comming back I assume they have a base that supports them in Tau 31. Since there are only two known to us places where they could do that, it makes me think that IMG do some support towards our enmies. Perhaps we should try to take control over a landing trafic on Holman, and Java as well? But that is your decission. My report is completed.
