Saturday, February 3, 2024 18:00: Coronado Skirmish - Liberty/Crayter vs. Outcasts

[Chxlls]

---

Word of increased violence between the Outcasts and Corsairs within the Omicrons has reached the other houses. With this new development, Liberty and Crayter see a potential opportunity to secure their presence within Coronado. Both groups have decided to bolster their fleet positions in the system, looking to drive the Outcasts out for good.

However, the Maltese assets in the area are battle-hardened and experienced campaigners. They are determined to hold their lines and ensure that Malta still has a pathway through Coronado to house space. They won’t give up easily.

With the ongoing campaign in the Omicrons, Maltese forces have limited access to their heavy capital assets. They will need to rely on the mobility and evasiveness of their snubcraft and light capital units to ensure victory. Liberty doesn’t feel the necessity to overload the system with heavy capital ships either, wanting to ensure heavy assets are close at-hand should anything develop in the Earhart/Uncharted Systems. But they won’t leave Coronado to chance. Liberty has called upon some of their veteran commanders to spearhead this operation.

Much thanks to @Barrier, @Antonio, @Levenna and others for feedback and help with this.

Aftermath

The expedition into the nebula by Crayter and Liberty revealed a sizeable Outcast Battlegroup still positioned in Coronado. After fierce fighting, with losses on both sides, Liberty and Crayter came out victorious. The battle-hardened Outcasts suffered some losses, but not nearly enough to push them out of the system. The joint operation between Liberty and Crayter is considered a success by their respective commanders, but they know that this battle isn't close to being over.
