Hello friends, Mac here reporting the busy day we had yesterday.
After delivering some suplies to Siloso the day before, we started there. Filled up a few transports with the Niobium Ore that was not sold to other traders, and we departed for Neu Berlin via Kusari as usual.
My scanners detected a red contact after we entered Rheinland, but it was at the limit of my ship's sensors, far away from the lanes. I guess it didn't detect us, 'cause it never got closer. So we delivered our cargo at Neu Berlin and headed to the omegas.
We did a few supply runs from Freeport One to Falster, topping off its reserves of maintenance materials and crew supplies. We then loaded our transports with Silver Ore that the Omega crews had mined the previous day. Here we are gathering our convoy together in front of Falster.
Soon we departed for Narita. We jumped to Omega 7 and near Freistad we met that scum pirate again, Love.Joy. He said he was in a hurry and jumped to Stuttgart, only to ambush our T1 transport in the middle of the next lane. Big mistake. Again. He tried to extort money - again! - from 5 battle transports with an escort snub. Soon enough, a green rain of fire was flying in his direction...
And, again, he lost his ship... As expected.
Well, after that, we proceeded without any more incidents all the way to Narita.
We then took some supplies to Falkland, and then Siloso, bringing alloys and water, oxygen and food rations from Freeport Ten.
After that we had a break for one hour or more, and then we started a big mining operation on Tau 23 to fill up Siloso's stock of Ore again, to reopen it for selling. We filled up the station with more than 85 thousand standard units of ore.
After that, some pilots did anoter trip to the Omegas, but I had already reached my max flight time for the day, so I went to rest in my dorm at Java.
