Here is a compilation report of incidents over the past few day. I would like to note that I've seen an increase in traffic of vessels originating in Gallia, both friendly and not, in this time period.
First incident of note was while flying supplies for [color=#CC0000]***REDACTED*** in the Sierra Nevada. While coming in to New York near Norfolk, I ran across the vessel
Iliuha. Per standard procedure I gave it a scan, and discovered the following cargo hold of
slaves. I was not able to halt it at the time, but I kept it in mind. While on my next journey running supplies I ran into the vessel again, and once again it was brazenly attempting to haul slaves out through Texas. I was able to put out a call for lawful reinforcements, and we caught vessel,
destroying it and rescuing its cargo of
slaves. I brought the slaves aboard and took them to Houston for proper processing and integration into Liberty society.
While working on supplying our forces in New Hampshire, I received a transmission from a Council vessel
Council|SDF-Glaceau holding in Magellan.

[30.05.2012 02:32:00] [LN]-LLS-Sierra.Nevada: Polstari: Hail, Prometheus. Do you copy, over?

[30.05.2012 02:34:44] [LN]-LLS-Sierra.Nevada: Polstari: Council vessel, stand by while I switch vessels.
I attempted to contact the
-LSF-Prometheus to request that it meet with the vessel, but it did not acknowledge me. I proceeded to meet the vessel myself at Magellan in my Upholder, and confirmed that it was indeed a
vessel flying Council colors. I offered escort to the vessel, which was fortuitous, as there were several pirates on the route to New York. I guided the vessel around through Ontario into Colorado and then finally into New York, where I granted permission to it to land on Manhattan and to conduct business within Liberty.
While on patrol that same day with Lt. Harper, we ran across a Zoner "Corvo" class
vessel operating under the tag of
Discontent that we escorted out of Liberty to
Curacao. This went without incident.
We also noticed a vessel tagged as
Alain_Pirks operating in Pennsylvania. Having run into and ejected this vessel from Liberty space before, I knew it to be a Gallic "Pachyderme" Transport operating for Solar Engineering. Lt. Harper offered the vessel the opportunity to surrender and pay the fine before being ejected, but Mr. Pirks decided to run for it. We cut the vessel off in
Colorado, where my newly equipped "Peacekeeper" Liberty Anti-matter Cannon managed to
take it out. My commendation to Lt. Harper for helping me track this vessel and for working to cut the Trade Lanes to prevent its escape. I'm not sure this would have ended as successfully had it not been for his presence.
Lt. Harper and I proceeded to run several ops in the Ontario system, and then I departed through Colorado. While on my way I noticed via intelligence reports that several vessels were in the Alaska system that I did not recognize. The vessels were the
LLS-Thorongil and the
JZ-Ancestor.Whale. Arriving in the New York system I received the following.
Comms:
Quote:[30.05.2012 05:15:34] JZ-Ancestor.Whale: Can anyone read me! Maday- Maday. Crew status: Critical, Hull breach imminent!
[30.05.2012 05:15:44] .:j:.Forum: Sorry luv... I can't help you much there...
[30.05.2012 05:16:02] [LN]-Alan.Polstari.: Ancestor Whale, declare yourself and your position.
[30.05.2012 05:16:27] JZ-Ancestor.Whale: En-route to West point- Nomadic ships have shredded the hulls!
[30.05.2012 05:16:39] [LN]-Alan.Polstari.: Negative, hold at Norfolk.
[30.05.2012 05:17:08] JZ-Ancestor.Whale: Roger that- In between the two points- Beside the lanes.
[30.05.2012 05:17:25] LSS-Thorongil: This is Captain Wesley Jenkins i escort him to Pensylvania.
I found the Ancestor Whale to be where it said it was, where I noticed that it was a
Zoner "Nephilim" vessel, heavily contaminated with Nomad material, and that the Thorongil was an LSF Secondary Fleet Cruiser. I ordered the Ancestor Whale to Norfolk Station for decontamination and temporary repairs, to which its captain
complied. I contacted Commander Sanders and Captain Baker via SKYP-3 protocols and worked out that I was not operating under the full gravity of the situation. However, given the circumstances, it did not seem appropriate to open fire on a vessel requesting aid openly in New York. My attempts to contact the LSF Cruiser Prometheus once again fell upon deaf ears, however the
LNS-Marathon, a Liberty Dreadnaught operating under a Captain Hudson's command, arrived and together we escorted the decontaminated and deshielded vessel to the Cortez Gate in California after I fined it all its available funds. Captain Hudson also spoke to the captain of the Thorongil, though the details of that conversation were not made clear to me. Additionally, a communication from the Ancestor Whale's former associates(the captain of the vessel informed me that he was being expelled), The Jumping Zoners, has been given via Comm Channel
here. I would request that Captain Hudson be allowed to share any information that he may possess, and I am able to give a full comm transcript if required. Let it be noted that there is a large amount of "//" encrypted comms in it, which may take some time to decypher.
The final incident comes from earlier today while on another supply run. Coming back from Manhattan near Fort Bush, I ran across a Gallic Royal Navy pilot tagged as
Aurelia.Landreau flying in a
Gallic "Lynx" fighter. I moved the Sierra Nevada to Norfolk Station with haste and launched my Guardian. I reached out to a
Serene.Haze, a Council member I had noticed over Manhattan, in an attempt to gather information on the target.

[30.05.2012 21:52:01] CONSOLE: Possible cheating detected: Daemusin
[30.05.2012 21:53:06] [LN]-Alan.Polstari: I detected a GRN fighter flown by that pilot here in New York.
[30.05.2012 21:53:12] Discovery Freelancer is a role-playing server. All attacks must be the result of some form of role play. Shouting "Engaging" or "Halt" is not sufficient.
[30.05.2012 21:53:23] Serene.Haze: I am currently engaged with them
[30.05.2012 21:53:29] [LN]-Alan.Polstari: Location?
[30.05.2012 21:53:47] Serene.Haze: D 6
[30.05.2012 21:53:50] [LN]-Alan.Polstari: Copy that.
I moved to assist Miss Haze and found her engaged with the target in the Badlands. We
fought against Landreau for a while, damaging the vessel, until she turned tail and ran. We persued it "north" over the sun and into the Jersey Debris Field where I expected the target to attempt to flee via Jump Hole to Colorado. Instead, it
requested docking clearance at Rochester Base, which was granted.

[30.05.2012 22:13:54] Characters of a player who was killed in a PvP fight must not return into the same system for 4 hours. Check the server rules on the forums for the exceptions to this.
[30.05.2012 22:13:59] Serene.Haze: Did they dock somewhere?
[30.05.2012 22:14:07] [LN]-Alan.Polstari: They docked at Rochester.
Needless to say it was frustrating to see the target escape because of this, but perhaps, if the target is still present, the Junkers can be persuaded to hand her over. Please consider this my full report with respect to any evidence being presented to the Junker Congress.
