Operation Popular Uprising has found it's reborn uses. We led a raid into the New Berlin System earlier today. Responses were light at first until one of the capitalists military fighters decided to show up and grace us with his presence. One of our Comrades from the SCEC made short work of him in a dual of Bombers, though both vessels suffered massive damage we were able to retrieve the Comrade's pod.
Shortly thereafter, another fighter approached us outside Planet New Berlin, he wasn't very talkative, but he did not last very long either.
On our way back to Darmstadt, we found a Hessian Transport in Combat with a Rheinlandish Gunboat. We moved in to assist and were able to rescue our friend. After escorting him for repairs, we returned to New Berlin where we found more Rheinlanders. The Battle was long and hard, we were out gunned for the most of it. We managed to perish one more of theirs before having to jettison ourselves, only to be picked up by nearby allies.
All in all it can be counted as a good night. We shall head into the Heart of Rheinland once more soon.
