Ok. Well, as I came on shift, I was sent to patrol Cambridge. It was rather uneventful, and nothing much happened until LtCdr. Aldwyn called us to Leeds, as an IKN ship had entered the system. We rushed up there, but the cruiser had fled. We then went hunting it in Tau-31. We managed to find a couple of smugglers, but were unfortunately able to either capture them or get records of their cargoes. Later, however, I recieved word from Clancy Wiggum of the LPI that a software smuggler, Archie, was heading towards Bretonia. I found him carrying a trainload of pirated software, and he had the nerve to ask me where the Dublin jump hole was. Unfortunately I gave him one chance too many to stop and he ran off to the Edimburgh hole. He would have been caught by me, however, but I saw another trader, Gourd_Head_Transport, carrying a trainload of Plutonium, so I made a quick decision that a trainload of counterfeit software was going to do less damage than a trainload of plutonium. The second smuggler complied to my requests and entered LD14, under heavy guard. I didn't stick around once he'd entered the security checks, but I believe that the Plutonium had been offloaded. However, earlier I sent Ens. Rockford to head off the first smuggler at Dublin. Unfortunately, this had attracted the attention of some people there having a race, and one MR vessel and a mercenary followed him back into New London. After they refused to leave, we engaged. A regular Molly rogue gunboat patrol also attacked, so we retreated to New London, where I sent the order to attack all enemy ships above the planet. However, my message must have been rather garbled and they initiated a total lockdown and attacked all ships above the planet, including me! Rockford went down early, running in to his own mine, and leaving me facing two MR ships (a second had joined the fight) and the mercenary, Tobias"Smile"Long. Luckily for me, the MR were in Barghests, and with a few lucky strikes from my SN, they ended up floating in their escape pods. I tried to do the same to the merc, but he was bloody good with his missiles and I ended up having everything stripped off my ship except the SN and my nuke mine dropper. With that little remaining to me, and the lockdown still in place, I was forced to initiate an emergency landing.
After that, as if this much wasn't enough, Hobart arrived and we went on a patrol of Cambridge, hunting down a 'Sair, HellMarch (whose ship had been rebuilt after yesterday's scuffle). He fled, but the fight with the mollys had left me so worn out that I was falling asleep in my Templar. I landed it on Norfolk, where I proceeded to write this report
