Today, I was determined to do a proper patrol, without being shot after 5 minutes, and without getting involved in a massive and unreportable battle.
Full of courage, I started my patrol at 20:55 SMT.
After some regular cargo scanning at the border, Vizeadmiral Alec Voelkel called me to Omega-7 at 21.00SMT. Why I was on my way to the Omega's, I got a call from Indigo:Reaver about an LSF Vessel in Dresden. After I checked with the Vizeadmiral, I got permission to check it out and changed course for Dresden at 21:07SMT
When I arrived at 21:12SMT, I already found Indigo and Gefreiter Kai Siegfried interrogating the suspect. The LSF Vessel was a Liberty Gunboat, with LSF ID and tansponder and was carrying the name VEESA. He was carrying some Rheinland pilots in his hold. There was no doubt that he was spying Rheinland, but he came up with a very poor story about extending the covert hand of friendship to Rheinland. It was obvious that he was making up a story to get out of there alive. After first releasing the Rheinland pilots, we pushed through to get some information out of him, but the longer we were interrogating, the worse his story became. After a while, he said Gallia was going to invade, and that we had to work together to defeat them. Right, like that is ever going to happen.
at 21:23SMT, it was enough, and we decided that we needed a better environment to interrogate him, so we tried to make him come with us to a holding facility. We was not cooperating, so we needed to extract him from his ship forcefully. At 21:27SMT, Gefreiter Siegfried ordered to open fire.
The LSF pilot was badly trained, because our ships didn't have any trouble damaging his ship severely. All of a sudden at 21:34SMT, while we were shooting the last bit of his ship apart, the LSF ship engaged some sort of cloaking device, and so the suspect escaped. We don't know where he went, so if you see the target VEESA somewhere in Rheinland space, don't hesitate to shoot and interrogate him.
After this, all officers decided to call it a day, and docked. There was not much left to do for me alone, so I did the same. I ended my patrol at 21.40 SMT. It Might not have been a long patrol, but I was pleased with the results. *Transmission ended*
// VEESA had some weak excuse to F1. He did announce it, so I won't go through the hassle of reporting him.
