The Libertonians launched an attack against Hamburg and decimated the local military with an enormous capital ship strike force. I counted about 5-6 cruisers of two models, siege cruisers and assault battlecruisers, accompanied by the LNS-Vanguard, a Liberty Dreadnaught as well as a wing of gunboats and a few snubcraft escorting them.



Since me and one of our recruits, Genosse Matthias Bachmeier were around the area, we were immediately notified of the case, flying off to assess and hold back the Liberty assault.

I took point. By the time I reached Hamburg, the Liberty strike force was already closing on orbit, taking down two Rheinwehr fighters and a loosely equipped reserve battleship, leaving me to face them alone. As Genosse Bachmeier came, we moved in and engaged some of the Liberty snubcraft, taking down a bomber of the LCBO with relative ease, save from some ions and constant missile bombardment from the capital ship fleet, doing slight damage to my Odin.



Our distraction was used by the Rheinwehr to amass a counterattack, piling up a bunch of capital ships and a bomber wing in Hamburg orbit. The Libertonians threatened to use their siege cannons to fire at the planet's population, just to lure the cowardly Rheinwehr out, while the Volksfront's fighters were the only ones to risk their lives for the citizens in danger of being subject to Liberty's attempt to genocide.

As the siege cruisers started engaging the Rheinwehr fleet, the Kanzler's men started fearing for their lives and began shooting back. A gunboat, the LNS Trance, a siege cruiser, the LSFC Ohio and a battlecruiser, the LNS New England were the kills which the Volksfront assisted. The rest of the Liberty fleet was scattered by the counter attack, as we bought enough time for the Rheinwehr to get themselves in shape.





When they threw themselves after the Libertonians to take their unnecessary war back to their home systems, we used the opportunity to move back to Frankfurt with Genosse Bachmeier. Enough lives have been lost, but more were saved thanks to the interference of the Volksfront. If we didn't stop the Libertonians from firing siege rounds at Hamburg, millions would have died, no thanks to the Rheinwehr considering their own meal more important than the lives of Rheinland citizens.

Für das Vaterland!
