During the nomad war, a new Corporation came up in Liberty, Vanderbilt Corporation. They gained much money with transporting reinforcements towards the fleets of Liberty and Bretonia, such as Missles, etcetc. After the nomad war, they were rich enough to buy some old destroyers and achieved the allowence to let their escorts fly Naval ships.
In 812 AS, all ships of the Corporation came together to celebrate the 100years birthday of the Corporation. During this celebration, they renamed their newest achievement, a Liberty Cruiser called Santa Anna, to Jack_Vanderbilt, after the Corporation's founder. It's commander was (and still is) Jason Sherewood (spoken JAson, not Dschaisn:)). But as they all were together, a large Rogue strike force, leaded by the Outcasts attacked them, and destroyed almost all ships, only the Jack_Vanderbilt could fight it's way out of the massacre. As Jason returned after the necessariest repairs and with a Fleet of 3 Cruisers, a Battleship, 6 Gunboats and about 20 fighters behind him, they found a large field of destroyed ships and dead humans flying in space. Everyone died. Everyone? No, Karl, the youngest Vanderbilt survived in his disabled fighter. After the Pirats were gone, he saw Junkers coming, salvaging all usefull stuff, and killing every honourable worker of Vanderbilt Corporations, including his whole family.
He and Jason have now sworen to kill every Pirat they can get to take revenge for this raid. The Liberty Navy Command gave Karl an Avenger and he prooved to be one of the best pilots of Liberty again and again and again. He and Jason aren't in a special unit in the Navy, they got the allowence to fly with Navy tag and ID, but they can go whereever and whenever they want to on their search for revenge. If they can, they take donations from feared pirats who then hope to get away alive, but they are daed latestly 48 hours afterwards.
The money is taken to improve both ships first, and when they can't be better anymore, they will safe cash to rebuild the whole Corporation.

So far so good, we made it to a Liberty Battlecruiser with the *help* of several pirats. Now we give them all back they did to us!
But.... Are these Pirats really responsible for what happened? The newset tech of the Argonaut showed that the flight recorders of the destroyed ships were somehow... damaged. Something strange happened there. The best is i can't even remember that whole week, a complete "Blackout". Let's see if we can get more outof those recorders.
Bad thingy is that there seems to be a war coming between Liberty and Rheinland, if the behavior of our two nations goes on like this.
Ah well, let's see what future brings.

A bad thing happened lately, we lost contact to Jason Sherewood today! He just vanished! He landed on Manhatten and imprisoned about 100 pirat pilots of different origins, then launched again and was gone. Maybe we wouldn't have noticed it so fast, if i wouldn't have contacted him after he launched if we couldn't raid Buffalo........
Well, LSF launched an investigation about a ship rushing through Area21. I will try to find outt if it was my friend causing trouble there. Maybe he got Nomad infested?
------->5hours later<-------
Okay, now i'm worried more and more. LPI found the bodie of the 2IC of the Jack Vanderbilt, and several other crew members.... all DEAD! We were fast enough to get one onto the Argonaut for self investigation, before LPI took all of them. What we found out, i can't write here. But i have an idea where i can find him. And i'm really unsure if it were really Pirats killing the Corporations, i somehow think it was someone..... something else......
And forget this RP story
