Alliance High Command,
I was right. The LSF had the time to further their plans of grabbing our territory for all of their "spooky" experimental nonsense, and there was only one conclusion - they would destroy us all.
Fortunately, we also had the time to prepare for such incursions, including the assets belonging to the "Unforgivable" penal unit. We mustered up what we could, including our dreadnought, the Liberty Rose, and a good pool of Hacker affiliates willing to assist us. I personally had assisted in repelling a few incursions from the LSF; one came close to Fort Ramsey, but it ended in a victory for our side. Now, this time, we had to fight, and there was no second chance should we fail to accomplish our objectives.
They had the Battlecruiser Lehigh and some kind of "repair ship", named the Robert Peary. Due to damages sustained by the last incursion, the Crimson Biter was admittedly late to the fight when it unfolded. However, we managed to disable the Lehigh and destroy the Robert Peary as it tried to escape via California, though the Liberty Rose was heavily damaged as well. My ship is heavily damaged for the time being, but our attack forced them out of Ontario, hopefully permanently. A worthy sacrifice to ensure the future of the Liberty Free Republic.
We shall not give up, as now is the time to assert our hold on our home system.
