Greetings Comrades. I apologize for the lateness of this report, but a semi-successful raid into Rheinland was conducted with a joint flightgroup from Red and Gold squadrons. The flight-group consisted of Lt. Commander Eugen Weise - Red Nine - Fighter
Lt. Gabrial Mau - Red Three - Fighter
Commander Yuri Striatov - Red Five - Fighter
Commadore Alexei Stakhanov - Osiris Karl Marx
Lt. Alexi Karchov - Gold One - Bomber
The Flight group rendezvoused at Bonn Station in New Berlin, with Weise and Mau coming via Hamburg and the rest coming from Stuttgart. After forming up, the flight group proceeded to flood the comm frequencies with the word of the Coalition.
No response. The Military did send several Cruiser battlegroups, who succumbed to the combine might of the Karl Marx and my Natalia's SuperNova. Still no response from the elite corps.
A Mercenary moved in for a look, but did not engage and ran out of the area.
Seeing that no opposition was forthcoming, the flight group headed back to Cape Verde. Low on fuel, Lt. Mau and Lt. Cmdr. Weise docked for the day. It was found on long-range scanners two Mandelorians in Omega49, and Striatov, Karchov, and the Karl Marx headed toward the Zoner system.
After finding the Mandelorians turning tail, long range scanners found an unknown contact in O50, heading toward 52. The flight group quickly flew back to O52 to find a Bounty Hunter Battlecruiser docking at Cape Verde, claiming to be a diplomatic transport carrying a Zoner High Admiral or some tripe. Needless to say Commadore Stakhanov was upset about the Battlecruiser being in his parking spot, ordered the flightgroup, now with Cmdr. Striatov in his bomber as well, to destroy the ship upon undocking, which was done very quickly.
After this, Natalia and I had to retire to refuel and reload, and docked with the station for Vodka and...more vodka.
