This is Admiral Erinyes aboard the Caedo. We have just left Rheinland space. I will start from the beginning.
We were positioned in Sigma-13, on our way to Megellan to defend it from the SCRA. We asked for permission to enter Rheinland space from the RM cruiser, Vineta, and it was granted. We traveled through New Berlin and Hamburg. At the Bering jump gate, we had a ship shutdown. (AFK) When we were able to restart the systems (came back from AFK status) the Rheinland Military Battleship, Alzette had attacked the ship and taken our hull down to critical level. (About 1/8th of a bar left.) Our shield was also removed completely at the time. (Virus, piloting the Alzette, had known I had the game minimized, as he was in the same Skype convo at the time.)
As soon as we demanded a reason for this, the Alzette said we had ten seconds to leave the system. Not an easy feat with a ship as big as ours. We refused to, given the fact that the RM nearly destroyed the ship when we were having problems, then decided to give us a chance to leave, when they knew full well we were on-route to the Bering system. The Alzette then opened fire. The Caedo, already crippled, didn't stand a chance at fighting a fresh, full nano bot/shield battery equipped battleship. We retreated towards the two Hamburg jump holes in the system. The Alzette left the chase when it kept getting stuck in the asteroids, and the Caedo was able to make it to Sigma-13.
I demand an explanation for this unprovoked attack on a neutral ship.
