It is a glorious day for the Corsair nation! Our long expected counter-attack finally came true.
We were contacted by Harvesters and they gave us some info about O-Alpha defenses. It was all they could acquire from the infested unit before it was too late.
The plan was to quickly strike in to the heart of Outcast homeland, to destroy that infested unit, before it transfers all the information it posses about Harvesters and Corsairs.
Here is the quick report first, it will be more widely explained down bellow.

We gathered our small vessels around Gamma, and started our journey towards Omicron Theta, then to Eta and to Alpha.
One vessel was two days before to Taus (Turtle[Tetsudo]) to investigate and to come from that side once we attack.
Two vessels (Grimly-(Titan) and KUROSAKI-{Hollow}) were sent in front of us so we don't get ambushed and to find the infested unit.
It was all quiet in Omicron Eta, and we easily managed to go trough unnoticed. Once we jumped to Alpha, we were accompanied by two Harvester units in Corsair gunboats.
We headed towards Ibizza where we RV-ed with said two vessels, which already located the infested unit.
We quickly engaged, but it was to easy to go that smooth. We were spotted!
Outcasts quickly sent a huge number of fighters and bombers towards us.
We decided to cover for 3 of our men while they are destroying the infested unit.
And this plan worked perfectly, the Outcasts made a big mistake and concentrated on us, instead of defending the infested unit.
It wasn't long before the first Outcast, {SOB}Watcher, fell to El.Matador's Supernova.
Right after that, {SOB}JollyRoger followed, with my Supernova cracking trough his hull.
At this point Harvester_24 engines failed and it crashed into the nearby planet, with great explosion seen even from space.
Our job was already done, but we were doing pretty well in destroying Outcast vessels, so we decided to stay a bit longer, which proved to be the right decision.
Outcast Sabre VHF SkoLL was soon destroyed by El.Matador's Supernova.
Now at this point Outcasts got reinforcements, their ace pilot [101st]Giovanni.Cordova and their dreadnought, [101st]MNS.Alhembra, showed up on our radars.
We were prepared for such a move from Malta defenders, and our bombers were quickly ordered to engage the dreadnought.
After great damage and, most certainly, few system failiures the dreadnought started backing off. We decided to let it go, as we didn't want to go any closer to Malta, so we don't get ambushed.
After that, [RoS]Paulus was destroyed by Sephardi.
[101st]Giovanni.Cordova at first concentrated his fire on me, but as he wasn't doing too much damage, he tried with other targets.
I was on his tail all the time, by the orders of our group leader. At one point, he made a huge mistake, turned around and headed straight towards me.
As my Supernova wasn't charged, the only chance to use his mistake was to hit him with my ship and drop a nuke.
While his shield was down, mine was up. His ship ended destroyed, my Praetorian ended unharmed, except minor shield failure.
Right after this, {SOB}1CM was destroyed by Harvester_17 unit.
At this point everything seemed to be going perfectly, just as we could only dream off. No losses on our side, heavy losses on Outcast side.
But Outcasts weren't ready to give up yet. {SOB}Grimtooth was on my back all the time, which proved to be a mistake, as El.Matador activated the Nuke I dropped with CD and his ship was blown up to dust.
At this point, Outcast started fighting back much harder. They'v got a hell of a reinforcement when [RoS]Vengeance[X] showed up.
In his bomber, he did an excellent job by destroying both of our Harvester allies. But in the process of doing so, he himself was heavily damaged as well.
Nevertheless, he managed to dodge our fire for a long time. Finally, when he was already burning, he tried his last move, he headed straight towards me to try and hit me with his last Supernova.
Before he could even fire the Inferno to lower my shield, he got hit by my Supernova, and his ship was in pieces.
Quickly after that, El.Matador managed to destroy both Tel'aran'rhiod Sabre VHF, and Gabrielle.D'Angelo Sabre VHF, both with Supernova.
{SOB}Capt.Unholy1[A] managed to destroy [OPG]Poison after some time. His rescue pod was picked up by Sephardi.
Now {SOB}Sage and {SOB}Capt.Unholy1[A] decided to take me as their target, and they did minor damages to my systems, but nothing important.
After King_of_Death was killed by Grimly, {SOB}Sage made a mistake and ran into my Supernova. His ship was destroyed.
Right after that, another Sabre VHF, named Dragon_Face, ran into my Supernova.
It was now 7 of us chasing {SOB}Capt.Unholy1[A] around. After some time, he was finally destroyed by El.Matador's Supernova.
We picked up what we could from the wrecks around, and quickly headed towards Eta. We safely managed to get to Crete.
I wish to thank all the fighters that did an extremely well job in covering us (bombers). Without them, this would never be possible.
Great teamwork and organization again proved to be on the Corsair side.
There's a party at Crete's main bar going on just now, so be welcome to drop by!
This is a glorious day!
Viva los Corsairs!

It is every Corsair's responsibility to die a beautiful death in defense of Crete, regardless of how OORP or how capwhoring the opposition is. Launch your fighter, joust the battlecruisers and die a beautiful death. Then, drink it down in the bar.
