Miasma Shakedown Report, Galileo Engagement
Good Evening,
During preparations for the Miasma's post-transfer shakedown cruise, we received information of a confusion situation in Colorado en-route to the Galileo Jumpgate. Anticipating little difficulty, the Miasma slipped its mooring at Norfolk and joined the onsite vessels, Battleship Wisconsin, Gunboat Gemini and the 46th's Battlecruiser Akhetaten. The scene we arrived to was the very confused crew of a Gallic battleship, carrying a load full of cigars and transmitting a Deep Space Engineering IFF. Thanks to the Akhetaten's diplomatic skills, the situation was dealt with.
Shortly after the resolution of this situation, we received notification from forward observers regarding a buildup of Blood Dragon forces in Galileo. Weighing risks with the danger of their presence, we mobilized to the area as it was within Liberty's designated zone. Upon arrival, we were met with a scouting squadron of Blood Dragon ships and engaged them, only to be ambushed by a squadron of strike bombers and a formation of cruisers. The confrontation continued to escalate to include a full cruiser flotilla, several strike wings and a small set of heavy gun warships. During these series of engagements, Bristol combat vessels arrived to provide assistance and later a Kusari Naval Forces vessel arrived to assist.
The combined forces stood victorious over the Blood Dragon vessels with minimal damage incurred. Of the most notable support vessels, however, was the Bristol combat vessel Endeavor, identified as a former Insurgent cruiser-class warship. While this vessel did engage in combat to assist Navy warships and remained present through to the withdraw of the Miasma and demonstrated no hostile behavior, it's origins are curious at best as to our knowledge most known ships were struck down during the final campaign of the Insurgency. Attached will be the scan data of the Endeavor, as it was all we could manage during the confrontation.
