A very minor encounter. JANIKA was a Rogue Gunboat that was sighted near Ames Research Base in Kepler. The Rogue docked on Ames without incident and the convoy moved on.
Casualties:
(None)
CEO Notes: "We had a huge convoy this time. 9 USI ships, 3 independents joining us, so the total size of our group was 12. Managing a convoy of that size is not easy. It takes leadership, patience, knowledge, and perseverance. So whoever was the CEO of this convoy certainly deserves the most praise.
Brennan did a very very good job of scouting. Professional and focused the entire route.
Everyone else did good with the line order and running the route. The escorts didn't have anything to shoot at, but still were keeping track of all the transports, making sure to point them in the right direction and always were on the lookout for trouble.
Captain Steele of the Valhalla|Erebus is affiliated with Ageira and offered us a free escort in his IMG gunboat. Very generous indeed. He shot down dozens of rookie Outcasts and Golden Chrysanthemums along the way.
The route path was also very good and took us to some systems that don't get a whole lot of traffic like Orkney and Hokkaido.
