"They cornered Michigan outside mining field in G3 of the Dublin System. After a long negotiation, they denied our offers and demanded that Michigan drop his Gold Ore. I told him to comply and made an insurance claim to reimburse him. The Escorts, including me, could have CD'd the Mollies and allowed Michigan to continue, but it did not happen that way."
Casualties:
N/A
CEO Notes: "Should have known we would run into trouble. I mean, C'mon, the 'Twenty-Second Convoy?'? Deffinately unlucky. Convoy started well. T'was a nice conversation on the way there with the boys and that miner. Once we arrived in Dublin, we met the Miner in one of his usual spots. Since the Miner decided to sell some of his ore to someone else, we had to wait in order to fill Michigan's cargo bay. After waiting about five minutes, I spotted a Molly gunboat headin' our way. I gave the order to cruise, but the second Molly gunboat found them and cornered them in. Anyways, after that was all over, we waited for the miner to fill up Michigan's Cargo bay....again and then we headed back home."
"Michigan had some problems staying on course and docking with ... well, pretty much everything. But, at least we got home safely. In fact, we had a Liberty Navy volunteer offer his escorting services to our destination in the New York System. I thought that was pretty nice. His call-sign was Colorado. Nice fellow, helped an officer scare away some outcast that wanted Gruzzy's rogue prisoners. Anyways, once that was over with, we all docked for some drinks or sleep."
