The Phantoms seem to have gotten this idea into their heads that they can try to destroy our transports now.
After intercepting a distress signal from the Omega-3 system, the transport Venture was dispatched immediately to assist, under Captain Nigel Johnson. After joining forces with the rescue ship Perth-Rescue over long-range communications, the Venture commenced a search of the northern and western regions of the system, the Perth-Rescue tackling the south.
South of the Cambridge Jump Gate, however, the Venture encountered a [color=#FFFFFF]Phantom Shadow Fighter. The Captain did not attempt to get a scan on the vessel's capabilites; I don't blame him either. After entering the defensive cover of Douglas Station, visual contact was finally made with the Perth-Rescue which was engaging the Phantom fighter. Captain Johnson prepared to assist in case the tide of the battle turned but luckily the Perth-Rescue was more than enough to drive the madman away.
After this the Perth-Rescue returned to Bretonian space, and the Venture is moored at Freeport One.
