Great, finally got communications back online. Good job there wasn't much in the way of serious damage after that.

Well, after a recent mission, in which we were launching attacks into the Omegas against Corsair patrols and Cadiz itself, the Corsairs attempted to ambush me in, of all places, Omega 52, led by one 'Matador'.

The showed skill and cunning, and nearly executed a perfect trap, but my bomber managed to engage crusie and retreat to Cape Verde under heavy fire from roughly half a dozen snub-ships and a brace of gunboats.

On boarding the station, I prepared for the worst and called for a red alert, running to the defence turret decks, which then proceeded to eliminate both of the hostile gunboats, forcing the enemy fighter wing to retreat after some minor damage, considering the size of the attack.

We lost communications for several hours, but, all in all, we got off extremely lucky, largely thanks to the base defence gunners, who should be highly commended for being so cool under fire.
