Priority:
Medium
Urgent:
At present there is a small Outcast raid, consisting of an Outcast capital ship, a 522nd Liberty Assault Battle Cruiser, and an Outcast Falcata. All present defenders have been destroyed, including myself. Due to the rapid onslaught of their assault I was not able to take any graphical records. However, their ships were roughly ID'd as Jim.Black, Ascendant.Justice (Or something along the lines of) and CrossCountry.
Summary:
Outcast Destroyer - Dona.Theresa.Wenceslau - Destroyed
Artifact Smuggler - gekerd - Escaped, Fines Due: 2,000,000 Credits
Various Unlawful Vessels - Jim.Black, [Maf].MM.CrossCountry, [522]Ascendant.Justice - Unknown, believed to be currently terrorizing Liberty.
Shift Report:
Apart from the above, we encountered nothing but a single smuggler, an untagged Bounty Hunter attempting to leave Z21 from a battle with the Order, and an Outcast Destroyer.
Upon entering shift all was slow. However, after nearly half an hour of no contact, I detected an Outcast tagged ship. After closer inspection I discovered he was flying 14K above the regular flight plane. Calling for backup I headed planetside to obtain my Havok. However, in my brief absence, several of my companions decided to open fire, without asking questions as to why he was there, nor whether he had hostile intentions. To my knowledge he did not open fire first. However, I proceeded as ordered and assisted in his destruction.
After this, all was quiet for some time. En route to secure the Texas embargo, I scanned a ship and found he was carrying a large quantity of Artifacts. After requesting him to stop, he rudely declined and fled to the Liberty Rogue Destroyer. Forwhatever reason, my Cruise Disruptors did not take effect. Knowing that we had no hope of forcing him out of the vessel, we spread out across the system, expecting him to make a run for Manhattan. However, he went against all precedented smugglers, sacrificing profit to save his life, and fled for California. It is believed he sold them at California Minor.
The last event, the biggest one, was mentioned above, labelled as urgent. I believe one of my companions has records of the event. A passing Bounty Hunter was kind enough to retrieve me after the Unlawfuls had moved on.
