Combat Report
Commander Aubrey Mainwaring

Sirs,

I am forced to go on extended convalescence after sustaining injuries in combat. Deuced doctors won't let me out of this blasted bed for two or three weeks!

The combat concerned was in the Edinburgh system, against the NLH. Admiral Percy Nelles and Ensign Tobias Clark were in Templars and I was in my Challenger. We were patrolling in Leeds when the Admiral spotted the NLH vessels, two fighters and a Gunboat, in Edinburgh and we moved to the jumpgate. On the way there, a small ion storm caught me and blasted me out of the system. Infuriating!

I landed, rebooted all my electronics and was able to charge back to the jumpgate. I arrived in Edinburgh too late, just as Tobias Clark's Templar was destroyed by [NLH]Red.Sunset. I raced to the fight and was able to assist the Admiral in destroying the Gunboat, the [NLH]Ebola. We were looking to get control of the fight when the Admiral's Mine launcher systems malfunctioned and his ship blew up. Strangely enough the exact same thing then happened to the [NLH]Red.Sunset!

[NLH]Ktayn managed to pick up most of the stray batteries and Nanobots, which gave him an advantage. He was also a skilled pilot and wore my shields down after a long fight.

In an earlier incident the three of us had destroyed the Corsair vessel =13th=HighGuard which had the temerity to enter New London! So, on balance, it was a successful patrol.
