Today... was a glorious and magnificent day for the Coalition. What we accomplished... my comrades, shall be remembered forever!
By the orders of Commodore Ares, we initiated a tactical strike at Bretonia's law enforcements. Plotting our rally point near the entrance of the Cambridge system, Bretonia intelligence seemed to predict our attack and decided to setup a defensive position at the New London system. Commodore Ares was still confident that our troops would break through this blockade and bring the battle to the heart of Bretonia.
As we proceed to New London via Cambridge jumphole we immediately spotted hostile vessels, no doubt they were BAF-Pilots assisted by what seemed to be the mercenaries known as the White Tigers, who oddly enough flied Corsair ships. A few kilometers ahead stood our enemies, determined to defend their home. Commodore Ares took a deep breath and launched off the signal to attack.
The battle had begun... guns firing wildly through the void space, clusters of mines filled the air with clouds of explosive matter, a chaotic scene indeed. As the engagement progressed, several reinforcements from Bretonia had deployed in order to respond to this threat we had spawned and it had also caught the eyes of a bounty hunter.
When I turned my ship around... a huge figure was heading our way, then, then I saw it. A battleship! A sense of fear gripped my mind, but I had faith, I had faith in myself and my comrades. No matter what obstacle they sent towards us, we would overcome it!
With their heavy artillery being shot down by our bombers, we quickly dealt with the remaining forces. Unfortunetly Commander Bjorn Thorvaldsson's ship was pinned down by missiles from the battleship, though I managed to tractor his pod.
In the midst of battle, a reporter had managed to record the victory and the honorable speech by Commander Eugen Weise.
As we were returning to Omega-52 from our skirmish in Bretonia a number of Corsairs intercepted us near Cadiz Base in Omega-5.
At the same time Commander Yuri Striatov and Commodore Ares were assisting Lieutenant Raneis against a threat in Omega-3.
More obstacles came in our way as we tried to reach the Omega-52 jumphole. Another two hostile vessels intercepted us, but this time it was the Outcasts.
Finally we reached Cape Verde... we needed vital repairs from the last engagements. As the bloodshed wasn't enough, the Corsairs had now responded to our earlier attack against their brethren. A huge fleet of Corsair vessels were massing near Cadiz Base, no doubt they were seeking revenge of their lost ones. In order to not endanger our home system, we decided to take the battle once again to the enemy lines.
What we saw that day in Omega-5, was like no other... The vast numbers of Corsairs that had rallied up was simply mind-blowing. A sense of fear gripped me, they were so many, how on earth would we manage this? But... we were experienced, we had witnessed the face of evil with our very own eyes...
No comrade shall be killed, we promised this to each other... and that promise we kept!
We stood victorious... outnumbered, out gunned, we refused to die. Because we fought for something we believe in and that gave us strength, that gave us the will to live!
