From: Raul Sanchez To: Outcasts, 101st; RoS Subject: Battle report
We had a great day yesterday. A strong outcast fleet invaded gamma and won. Corsairs together with their order, zoner and colonial friends were beaten with only several destroyed ships on our side. Sadly we failed to destroy the traitor Julio Salvada. Also an amazing thing happened, one of the Guardians came and watched over us.
Our forces gathered at Freeport 8 in Theta, and proceeded to Gamma hole. From there we went to Triopli. Few minutes later we were at the corsair shipyard and some of the outcasts planted several explosives to it's outer hull. Sadly it looked like the shipyard was only lightly damaged from the explosion. No doubt the corsairs will repair it soon.
Then the corsair fleet arrived, several titans, raven talons, praetorian bombers, and a gunboat. Also we saw an Osiris and a battlestar near the planet. They were closing in slowly.
Sadly we lost few ships early, but all pilots were saved and brought back to Malta after we finished in Gamma. After the corsairs sent in even more ships, we lost the Guardian. His ship shell was badly damaged and it it had to move back to their systems. The loss of the guardian made us fight harder, and soon few corsair ships were destroyed. Corsairs then called in their zoner and order dogs. The battleships entered the battle too. Lohingren ordered all of us to concentrate our fire on them. They didn't last long, and were destroyed without us loosing any ships.
After what looked like hours of fighting we destroyed most of their ships, and were concentration on the traitor, Julio Salvada. At that moment Corsairs got new reinforcement. This time it was the colonials. One was killed several minutes later, and the other was to afraid to face us. The pilot rather made a crash landing on Crete then to fight us. After some time we destroyed few more corsair ships, and lost some sadly. We then again turned on the traitor Salvada. His dodging skills proved too much, and he managed to reach Omicron 94. Out of our reach.
The Crete's defenses were too much for us so we decided to return to Theta before they bring even more ships. We resupplied on the Freeport and left back to Malta. The traitor Salvada escaped, but even with that it was a great victory for the Outcasts.
My data is sadly incomplete, and some pilots might be missing from the list.
