Good afternoon Admirals, Commodore.
This is Captain Alistair reporting. On 0930 hours today the Illinois proceeded to head to San Jacinto in Virginia for its scheduled armament refit as a multipurpose Dreadnought. On the way we've picked up a distress call regarding a hostile Outcast Dreadnought, Ranseur-class, in the vicinity of West Point. Not really the most believable thing, but I ordered for the ship to turn about and investigate as per standard procedure. In Manhattan's vicinity we encountered Security Force Operative Morgan Donald and I informed him of the situation, after which Donald proceeded to quickly switch into a ship more capable of handling a capital-class threat.
Suffice to say that the call wasn't fake and the aforementioned hostile was indeed present in West Point's vicinity, along with a hostile Gunship which appeared to act as an escort. Enclosed is a log of the communications which followed afterward and camera footage of the ship's destruction.

[font=Agency FB][color=#00AAAA]Fig. A [font=Agency FB][color=#00BBAA]Fig. B [color=#99FFDD]The Ranseur was completely obliterated. We suffered no casualties and the Illinois sustained no damage. I would like to commend Operative Donald for his quick response, as without his aid, particularly coming in the shape of Cruise Disruptors, the Ranseur could have possibly vacated the area and, regardless of what its captain, I presume, said, still lingered around Liberty as a potential threat to our systems' internal security. Furthermore, the Illinois' refit procedures have been completed and I will proceed to re-register it with its new abilities and purpose in mind as per standard procedure.
