FROM: Junior Lieutenant Mikhail Ivanovski Fighter Corps
SUBJECT: Hispania Challenge Report
PURPOSE: Visit wreck of Hispania
ITINERARY: I departed Mykolaiv enroute to Omicron Alpha via Dublin, Aquitane and Brittany. Perhaps not the usually chosen route but chosen to avoid jump gates and trade lanes.
I had brief stopover at Freeport 10 to make some running repairs and seems they pay good price for Diamonds and sell Niobium at good price would be good for Semiconductors back at Zhukovsky. May be good trade route if not for needing to navigate 7K of minefields in Dublin.
Journey to Hispania was mostly uneventful, but came across Outcast Battlecruiser in Omicron Tau. It was in battle and had taken a lot of damage. My Partisan was not equipped to interfere so I continued on my mission.
Upon arriving at the Hispania I scouted the surrounding area and found a wreck containing assorted weapons and supplies, of which I would later need. Upon jumping back into Omicron Tau I was ambushed by two Outcast Gunboats. I was not equipped to take these two, and with hold full of recovered weapons I was not ready to let them take. I did not engage and took evasive action managing to escape after depleting all shield batteries and only a few remaining nanobots to get me home.
On return voyage I spotted Gallic Enclave, Gallic Brigands and a Gallic Battlecruiser that seemed to be stationed 10K from route between jumpholes in Aquitane. None of which seemed to show much interest.
Upon return to New Moscow I was met by Field Marshall Lukas Keller and given new directives to secure borders. A incursion into New Moscow had occurred but the perpetrators had taken a hasty retreat.
With the threat gone I finally returned to Mykolaiv for repairs, fitout and ID.
