This will be a gunboat only event. The purpose is to test gunboats post-rework in a fleet fight setting, and enjoy the chaos that is guaranteed to ensue. Hopefully people don't take this as a do-or-die event, and use it as a fun and chaotic experience.
Premise:
Following the increase in Cardamine production due to the end of the Malta slave revolt, the Outcasts issued a call to arms for all their friends and sympathizers to assist in protecting the Cardamine convoys to Liberty. Faced with the daunting task of safeguarding these convoys across the vast stretch from Bretonia to Rheinland, the Outcasts redirected a significant portion of their forces toward the Tau entry points into Liberty, specifically Cortez, Newcastle, and Coronado. An Outcast gunboat patrol squadron assembled at the Magellan jumphole in the Cortez system with Hackers by their side. The Hackers had gathered intel about hostile movement in the system, and the joint group decided to ambush the lawful forces.
The lawful forces, already on high alert due to the increased presence of unlawful convoys and combat ships in the region, maintained regular patrols in Cortez, anticipating clashes with local pirates. With Bounty Hunters opportunistically seeking easy kills and Bretonian forces forming a joint allied group to reinforce their northern border, they commenced a combined lawful patrol route from Curacao to the southern part of the open space below the system's star. Unexpectedly, an unlawful gunboat patrol emerged from the south asteroid field and engaged the allied forces.
A local Rogue and Molly gunboat patrol were also spotted in the area, having just finished a raid on the trade lane between the Manchester jump gate and Curacao. Having heard of a fight brewing, they rushed in to put their differences with the other unlawful groups aside and fight against the common enemy—the lawfuls. The result is a skirmish in the heart of Cortez.
