Well, it appears that the presence of ourselves in Rheinland is either inspirational, or that our deadly advances attracts crows and vultures...
Myself, Karchov and Striatov attacked New Berlin, aided by some local revolutionaries, with the intent of taking out both the 'Krieg' and 'Westphalia'.
Surprisingly, known for ill-advised courage, both vessels retreated, landing on planet. The captain of the Westphalia, Admiral Hiltraud seemed so disgusted by our presence to the point where she spit on the deck of her own vessel. Very dirty, in my opinion. If anyone does that on the 'Havana', there will be court-martials. Then again, I know that we all wash, brush our teeth and don't spit on deck, so it's a non-issue.
After this, with Bundschuh forces arriving, I had to shout at some of the local revolutionaries for selling out and needlessly threatening the civilians whom they aim to free.
We then engaged a pair of bounty hunter gunships, one of which fled. The Bundschuh fighters weren't equipped to deal with these vessels, not using shield-busting arms, so weren't able to keep down the shields of our foes and forcing our bombers to be more careful with our antimatter, which had trouble scoring hits due to displacement caused by ion storms.
We also had to take out both a Liberty Police detective, who seemed lost, as well as a Junker who felt the need to aid bounty hunters.
After this, the gunships finally succumbed to our fire, with the timely arrival of Commander Weise providing some good shots.
Noting the Junkers aid of the beast that is the Rheinland Military, all Junkers are to be hunted and destroyed. Wipe them from the face of Sirius, for they are the embodiment of the corruption that has taken root here.
