Ok, here goes.
I undocked from the Norfolk earlier today and, since Bretonia was quiet, we decided to rustle up some trouble in tau-31. (We being LtCdr.Hobart and Cdr.Wallace and I, Hobart and Wallace were already there) As I waited by the Leeds Jumpgate on the tau-31 side, a pair of Series ST transports and an X-Shuttle entered the system, carrying a huge amount of Deuterium. When asked their destination, the leader replied "Honshu" Now, naturally, we couldn't have that, so I ordered them to return the Deuterium to Bretonia. They said they would, and started cruising off. I didn't trust them, so I followed them all the way through several systems, including the Lewis system, where all of us were chased by angry, CD wielding hippies. After surviving that, the traders agreed to drop the Deuerium, which I destroyed.
---Sortie results---
3 smugglers apprehended, approx 7500 deuterium cargo destroyed
---------------------
As I returned from there, I recieved word from Cdr Wallace that we should make a further foray into the taus, tau 29 to be precise. As we reached one of the kusari bases, we were attacked by a pair of KNF who were loitering around. Despite them having support from regular destroyer patrols and reinforcements arriving for them, we took down two of their fighters, although Wallace's templar was destroyed. Hobart's ship was also destoyed by their reinforcements, although he took down 2 of them himself. Luckily, Privateer James Dean arrived and I assume that you have already recieved his report.
---Sortie results---
3 KNF chimeras destroyed
1 Challenger bomber, 1 Templar lost.
---------------------
After limping my ship with Hobart and Wallace's pods in back to Harris and waiting for my own ship to be repaired, I undocked from Harris to find one of the KNF who we'd destroyed earlier sitting around 8 K from Harris. He started running from me (although the cover from a destroyer patrol may have caused him to run) and engaged Dean at the Leeds Jump gate. Dean was able to destroy him. However, while that was happening, I recieved an SOS from Hobart, who was being attacked by Das Wilde in cambridge. from the garbled messages I was getting I assumed he was in deep trouble and called on both the WT and S/D to assist us. The Wilde ship was destroyed by his own mine, although Hobart's ship was heavily damaged in the fighting and he had to perform an emergency landing. However, a lane hacker who had been assisting the Wilde ship escaped, partially due to Dean and the freelancer having an argument which ended in gunfire half way through the chase (Dean came off worse)
---Sortie results---
1 Wilde Wrath destoyed
1 KNF Chimera destroyed
1 Challenger Bomber lost, 1 forced to crash land
