I was scouting in Leeds system when Yoritoro came to reinforce me and we surprised by a Templar and a Destroyer. With the help of a little deception at Stokes I managed to draw the attention of the destroyer and we jumped to Tau 31 successfully.
Both bretonians followed, and fighting continued. But after a long fight the Destroyer fled heavily damaged:
The remaining templar wasted to time running towards McDuff. Then a group of 4 Outcasts arrived and a newly arriving BAF requested them to "help"
Outnumbered in hostile territory we left for holman where a stand-off ensured. During this one of the bretonians deactivated his engines when transmitting for reinforcements which proved a crucial mistake as his ship exploded.
Gaian gunboat arrived at the scene and started fighting the Outcasts. We joined the fight and on first pass I managed to shot off supernova from one of the enemy bombers. The Gaian proved very skilled and blasted two of the Outcasts, while I destroyed the 3rd one.
Then a new bretonian force arrived, gunboat and templar this time. Gunboat was soon destroyed by our combined firepower and the Templar fled yet again, after this the last outcast was destroyed as well.
For his actions during this battle I recommend Yoritoro for promotion.
