Comrades! Victory beckons! We, the Coalition executed a perfect strike into the heart of Liberty today, completely crippling it's operations for an extended amount of time. No force mustered by the capitalists could overcome our cascade of successes! Not even the Hellfire Legion could stand against us, sided with their enemies to force us out. Are they that corrupt that they are willing to put on a cease fire just to attempt to stop our righteous forces? No matter.
Our force consisting of four bombers and two fighters first tactically stricken Norfolk to find but a single Liberty gunboat, completely unprepared for the strike. It fell back and we followed, all the way to West Point where a hastily clad defense awaited us. We charged into the fray and engaged enemy forces, obliterating them all without a big struggle.
The Liberty forces were recieving constant reinforcements along the way, even so far as throwing Assault Frigates at us. Then to our surprise the HF arrived, with their battleship. Vin'Gyr was it? Our elite bomber force switched targets, and that Van'Gir was soon out of action. I have to underline that it was myself who put in the finishing supernova shot into the Vyn'Gor's engine, causing an explosion that severely damaged the remaining enemies - but not our own forces, as we were tactically smart enough to back off before it exploded.
With the Von'Gar destroyed, we dismantled the rest of the defenders until losing controls due to an ion storm. We found ourselves scattered as all our ship systems went back online. The storm threw us all across the system, however we managed to rejoin each other before resuming the attack. After the storm the only one that was left was a lone Hellfire Legion fighter. Alas we forced him to run after a few minutes.
That was the end of resistance in Liberty. We encountered a couple cowardly Jupiter Guild members afterwards. It is unfortunate that they all had to be spaced. We also encountered an LSF Spatial roaming about, probably trying to gather info on us. It was destroyed (or sniped) in approximately a second.
Holding ground some more and scaring the LSF director into hiding like a rat on one of his bases, we decided that Liberty is going to be hard pressed to regain composure after this strike and that we should retire for now, to strike the corrupt another day.
I have kept careful count of our kill tally in the assault. All in all it amounted to:
- Six fighters
- Five gunboats
- One assault frigate
- One Liberty Police Prison Liner
- One Hellfire Legion Battleship, also known as Ven'gor
All that by a force of two fighters and four bombers. I daresay, we are the best of the best. Attached below is but a handful of the death messages from the battle. Many more were fighting us, a few escaped, a few were simply disregarded. The proof of our victory still stands!
