Red Hessian Reporting Facility

Greetings my friends. I have a short report to submit. I was aboard the Wurdiz, when I received reports of a Corsair vessel in Frankfurt. We immediately headed in that direction, but by the time we had arrived, the vessel had vanished. Hours of fruitless searching turned up no clues, until I ran into a junker who suggested he may have seen an Imperator class gunboat in Sigma-13.

We jumped through and started to search the gas clouds. A gut feeling made me concentrate on the clouds surrounding the jump hole to Sigma-19, and before long my suspicions proved correct. The Imperator was no match for the Wurdiz, and using the cover of the gas pockets I was able to ensure that it barely even scratched my shields.

.

Klaus Stausberg was in New Berlin at the time, and I joined up with him afterwards. Admiral Malte was reported to be in the system, and the opportunity to strike a blow to the heart of the Kanzlers minions was too good to pass up. I ran across Malte at the jump gate to Dresden, and called in Herr Stausberg immediately.

Malte thought to tell us to surrender! We, of course, declined her offer, demanding the release of the brave Hessian pilots she had already captured. When another RM pilot in a Bergalmir showed up, they engaged us. As the fight raged, many Kruger, Daumann and Republican vessels also lent their assistance to the two RM. With my shields disabled, the Wurdiz started taking heavy damage, and targetting became impossible as heavy fire hammered into the hull. I knew I had to withdraw from the fight. Herr Strausberg provided sufficient distraction to Admiral Malte and the pilot of the Bergalmir, and I was able to overcome the security protocols of the jump gate with ease, allowing my escape into Dresden. Herr Stausberg's vessel was destroyed, but thankfully his escape pod evaded detection, and he was returned safely to Vogtland several hours later.

Florian out.
