#1 .. In the midst of the transit between WP 4 ( Kielfeld ) and WP 5 ( Vierlande ),as i was about to pass the systems star, i spotted a contact on the radar screen. Due to the contact being far away from any usual traderoute, i firstly thought i might have catched a smuggler and decided to investigate the ship. As i closed the distance to the unkown transport i've hailed the ship and requested to maintain its current flight vector as i start a routine cargo scan. Before i was able to completely scan the ship, the captain of the freighter engaged his cloaking device with the words "don't think so".
In the split second of the scanner working properly before loosing its track on target again, i saw, what i believed to be toxic waste. Working out possible destinations for the said cargo, i've came to the conclusion that he might be headed for the Refinery in Koeln. I instantly engaged cruise engines and headed for an possible intercept at Koeln Jumphole.
After about 2 minutes of loitering Koeln Jumpgate, the said contact appeared right out of the dark in just 400 meter distance. I've successfully stopped and scanned the captain and there. Although his Cargo appeared to be legal, i fined him for 1.000.000 Credits for disordely coduct regarding following paragraphs.:
Quote:§2.4.1. Violation of orders given by law-enforcement authorities' representatives.
§2.4.2. Denial to provide of law enforcement authorities' representatives with information concerning your identification, documents on your cargo or your intentions in Rheinland space.
Reason for 2.4.2: Engagement of cloaking device interrupted my Scan before i could read out proper Data.
Since the cloaking of the Ship was a grossly negligent action trying to avoid Law Enforcement which nearly succeeded, no prior warning has been spoken out regarding the fine.
Sadfully, at this time i did not recognize that the papers the captain had, were invalid for the ship he used, as the vessel was capable of loading more than 3.600 Units of Cargo.
#2 .. I still loitered Koeln Jumphole, working on Data Saving from incident #1, as suddendly a Unioner ship jumped through the hole into Hamburg system. With me being alone, and just leaving Basic Trainee Program, the Unioner pilot sadfully had the upper hand in combat.
