Comm ID: Hauptmann Johannes Farb aboard bomber Red Autumn
Location: Stralsund, Omega-54

Technicians just managed extract the gun cam footage from my badly mauled Red Autumn so I apologize for the delay of the report.

I was on patrol with Hauptmann Ferdinand Gryneus aboard Arado in New Berlin near Dresden jump hole in the asteroid field. We checked also the Dresden jump gate and found a military cruiser RNC_Tauren and [RM]Karl_Westerman there. Out of desperation we engaged them and managed to deal a decisive blow to the cruiser. Karl tried to follow us to the fields and I don't know what befell on him, but I have a suspicion that Ferdinand had something to do with his demise.



We had no time to celebrate the victory since a Rheinland battleship RNC_Prometheus arrived at the scene. We retreated into the asteroid field and started taking shots from afar. Soon Prometheus realised that given time the end would come to her as well and fled.



We were jubilant at this point and decided to go collect donations for the free Rheinland at Brandenburg Station. Scarcely we had arrived when we were attacked by a bounty hunter battlecruiser ASF-Heiankyo_Alien. We were steadily bringing her down when to our utter panic Prometheus came into the scanner range and was coming closer. We were trapped between her and the battlecruiser! But the Prometheus did not open fire and stopped abruptly near the station. Slowly we overcame our shock and deduced that we must have scored a critical hit in the command systems since after reaching Brandenburg Prometheus just stood there. We were relieved. We were able to turn our full attention to Heiankyo which realized that the tables had turned once more against here and tried to hide near the massive battleship but it did not save her in the end. A comrade in arms [HT]Felix.Segur came to assist to bring down the battlecruiser. Ferdinand scored a direct hit to rid Rheinland this abomination.




After a hard won victory bounty hunters came back with vengeance. We were attacked by 3 gunships. The ASF-Century was laden with missile turrets. GundamM and BH_Mike.Fete-GS also engaged us. We were completely out-gunned. Poor Felix had no chance of survival. I went and snatched his pod and we were forced to run for our lives. Those bounty hunters pursued us relentlessly to Dresden jump hole, through Dresden and even to our guard system even after our stern warnings not to follow further. I nor Ferdinand were in no condition to continue the fight so we docked and let our guards handle them.



Our guard patrols chased the intruders away, but I think we all know what fate must befall on those 3 insolent gunships.
