An alert was put out by Comrade Viktor Sotskov that one of those vile Corsair OPG vessels had violated Omega 52. Along with Lt. Lanakov, I answered the call in my Raven Talon, choosing to leave the Bomber at home.
By the time I'd arrived, the baby-eater had fled to Omega 5. My two comrades and I decided to foray into Omega5 and monitor communications. We flew as a group to within 10 klicks of Cadiz. There were five Corsairs, two OPG, with reserves in Omega41.
As we were monitoring, the Corsairs launched an unprovoked attack, to which we responded in kind. Commander Kaputski arrived as well as some of our Red Hessian Army brethren, as well as more Corsairs.
The battle quickly split into two different fields, with the SCRA fighting near Cadiz, and the Hessians fighting near the O41 jumphole. Our brave pilots fought valiently, and through the engagement there were up to seven corsairs against the combine force of seven Coalition and RHA fighters.
I had my guns completely blown off by what can only be described as a bad decision to go head-to-head with a Virage on a full missile loadout. I learned my lesson. With only my mine dropper left, I scored the first kill.
I left the SCRA fight as I could do no good, and went to run interference for the RHA. The Coalition forced two of the Corsairs to flee, and Commander Kaputski, with his usual flair, destroyed two more of the Corsairs.
Coalition forces joined the RHA forces, and together caused the remaining Corsairs to flee to Omega41.
