Today we were contact by Senor Dghar on the common channels about two misbehaving vessels of our fleet. To be more precisely: Those fools considered it 'fun' to open fire upon Senor Dghars vessel.
When the Tramonto unmoored from the shipyard, Captain Carrera aboard the Dies Irae was already talking to the captain of the 'Outcast_Jerry', one of our Stortas, though I can't imagine which fool made that moron the captain of a warship. We also discussed the matter on more secure comms with Senor Dghar and finally came to the conclusion that it would be best to send that vessel out of outcast space to prevent other recruit from getting inspired by such a behaviour.
Captain Carrera ordered the vessel to leave outcast space, but then got replaced by Captain Rommer and the Da Garda. I am not sure if the Captain of the destroyer just didn't realized that order or if he tried to convince Captain Rommer of his innocence. Anyway Senor Dghar and I myself explained the situation to Captain Rommer. Senor Rommer then asked the rogue captain about his reasons to open fire on Senor Dghar and his answer baffled me and my crew that much that we forgot to record it. Luckily Senor Dghar sent me a copy of his recording. As already mentioned, the captains reason to open fire was 'fun'.
Again, the captain received the order to leave outcast space, and it really seemed like he would follow the order this time. Until the vessel stopped right beyond Ibiza, neutralized a couple of bounty hunter fighters and then returned to Malta. Captain Rommer told him that he had revoked his docking rights but obviously the message didn't travel fast enough to the docks above the planet, the cruiser docked.
Meanwhile another cruiser showed up, the MNS Retaliator. We explained the situation to the commanding officer, Captain Vasquez, and asked him to assist us in case we would have to prevent the 'Outcast Jerry' from docking with one of our bases again.
Meanwhile the rogue captain, who never mentioned his name, threatened us to 'report' us. I will make it easy for him and admit the orders I have given to my crew. I am sure that the Dons will agree that captains who are ordering their crew to shoot upon other vessel for fun are something we have to take measures against.
Well, after unmooring again we gave him another warning to leave outcast space. Again the vessel activted the cruise engines and left towards the jumpholes, and again we followed him to ensure he would leave. We gave him a final warning, but again he stopped half the way and tried to stall us. This time I considered it enough. he had received a warning salvo by the Da Garda earlier and was ordered by two Captains of the 101st to leave the system and behaved like we were just some annoying fools for him. I told my gunners to open fire, Captain Rommer did the same which resulted in the destruction of the target.
I hereby apologize for being responsible for the loss of one of our own vessel, but I didn't see any chances this captain would have been able to integrate himself and his ship into the outcast society.
Sincerely, Captain Alessandro D'Ortona.
P.S: On a sidenote: The other mentioned vessel was a Rogue with the callsign FR-LR-Alhpa2, but he sneaked away silently while we where busy with the destroyer captain.
