Today intel reported a little corsair fleet of about a dozen ships advancing through Eta. I quickly contacted as many pilots as I could reach and assembled a combined force of the 101st, the Syndicate and the secondary fleet near Siracusa. As soon as we reached equal numbers to the reported corsairs we moved out and searched the system for the enemy. They were near the Messina wreck.
Upon arrival the information we had received proofed accurate. The hostile fleet considered of the following ships:
2 Osiris class battleships
2 Imperator class heavy gunboats
6-8 fighter sized vessels of all types
As already said our own forces were about equal, those are the numbers:
2 Ranseur class Dreadnoughts
10 fighter sized vessels
The fight itself was unspectacular. It seemed the Corsairs had been sending a force of rookies to gain frontline experience. Unfortunately for them our own fleet included several veterans, so the fight itself didn't last long, nor did we have any casualties on the outcast side. On the corsair side I've seen one of them running while all the others got crushed.
Furthermore to be noted shall be the names of the fellow 101st pilots who responded to my emergency call:
Chavez, Damian (made it in time)
Hayashi, Renge (arrived too late, but responded nontheless)
Malasorte, Diego (arrived too late, but responded nontheless)
Santos, Eva (made it in time)
However, despite of her performance during the fight and her quick response, I have send Lieutenant Santos to Corsica to clean the toilets as a disciplinary action for her open resistance against filling the report on the fight.
