Subject: Action in Omega 41 Begin Message**
This is a battle report on a skirmish that took place a few hour ago. Long range scans had detected a substantial Corsair presence (mostly Omega Pirates Guild) in Omega 41, and myself and a few other comrades took up the task to investigate this matter.
Present on the mission were myself, Lt. Stacy Winters, Lt. Gabriel Mao, and Cmd. Luis Gellantra, who was the C.O. We encoutered two standard fleet Corsairs and three members of the Omega Pirates Guild.
The combat was intense. The battle mostly took place in the immediate area surrounding the Omega 5 Jump Hole. Lt. Mao was unable to use his nanobots in time, and was blasted by the vile OPG several minutes into the dogfight. Luckily, I was able to tractor in his pod on time. The fighting continued subsequently. We started tearing up an OPG pilot, but the cowardly scum fled through the Omega 5 Jump Hole rather than fight and win. As such, the target switched to Carlito, an OPG member. We administered great damage thanks to our superior skills and weapons, but his friends suddenly started focusing fire on me, rendering me useless for the most part since I was forced to suspend combat and start evading.
I was able to hold of the enemy attacks until the Corsairs once again decided to switch targets. As the dogfight progressed, we intercepted enemy OPG comms ordering the corsairs back to Omicron Gamma. We gave chase to the OPG, one of them being Carlito, into the nearby minefield. Here, my self and Comrade Winters were able to overpower and destroy Carlito using a well placed mine and two well directed Cruise Disruptors.
During this time, though, Comrade Gellantra was getting overpowered, so he ordered myself and Comrade Winters to pull out and retreat. His vessel took a battering, but he was able to hold off the Corsairs until Winters and I were safe in Omega 52, and finally he himself miraculously made it safe to Omega 52. As an amusing side note, a foolish Corsair attempted to follow us into Omega 52, where he was promptly blasted apart by the CPW Kurt.Eisner.
