After Action Report: Omicron Minor

Yesterday, 22 Mar. 834, at around 1900 hours SMT, Cairo Station picked up a massive energy spike originating from the northern Pohnpei Nebula in the Omicron Zeta system. Command decided that local Section 8 units should investigate while a task force was organized to fend off a potential alien attack. I was joined by operative Wendigo. We performed a quick sweep of Omicron Zeta and encountered a flotilla of Nomad warforms and infected vessels. Being heavily outnumbered and outgunned, we broke off our patrol and returned to Omicron Mu to relay our findings to the task force. While we were reporting the alien activity, Cairo Station informed us of a second, stronger energy spike from the direction of the Omicron Minor system. Anticipating an alien incursion, the task force set out, with our fighter complement taking point. Operative Armsman was assigned command of our strikecraft.

Arriving in Omicron Minor, the task force set course of Planet Toledo and the Graveyard, hoping to intercept any Nomad forces outside of the system's asteroid field. In Toledo's orbit, we encountered not only the alien flotilla Wendigo and I came upon earlier, but also several wings of Libertonian snubcraft - including elements of the First Armada and the Alaska Security Force - as well as a number of Core fighters and bombers. Ignoring the human trespassers, we engaged the alien forces at once.

Of note: The RNC Einbeck - the same Rheinland cruiser Vagabond recently encountered in Sigma-17 and Omicron Delta - appeared to be attempting to perform scans of the Isis' wreck. To what end, I don't know. The Einbeck was quickly dispatched by friendly forces. However, the ship and her crew are clearly compromised.

The Libertonian and Core units assisted with fending off the alien incursion. But, unsurprisingly, the useless traitors turned on our forces as soon as the Nomads were pushed back. Our fighter wing was massively outnumbered while the rest of the task force was harassed by Core warships joining the fray. Eventually, we were overwhelmed by enemy snubcraft and my ship was disabled. Luckily, I was able to disappear amidst the Graveyard's wreckage and await SAR. How the battle finally turned out, I don't know. But my guess is that the aliens' plan - whatever it was - was halted.

Operative Wendigo, formerly Knave, performed well. Emissary is right. He may be of some use.

That is all.
