[Unofficial Event] Gunboats Galore | CR/LN/BAF vs Outcasts & co

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, Magellan, Newcastle, and Coronado. A gunboat patrol squadron assembled at Barrier Gate, while Hackers and Rogues, momentarily putting aside their differences, joined forces to confront a common foe. A nearby Molly patrol from Newcastle, though not heavily involved with Cardamine, also lent its assistance against the lawful forces with the aim of weakening Bretonia's northern borders.

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 Coronado, anticipating clashes with local pirates. With the Crayter system as their home, the Liberty Navy stationed there as a result of the Yellowstone battlegroup, Bounty Hunters opportunistically seeking easy kills, and Bretonian forces forming a joint allied group to reinforce their northern position, they commenced a combined lawful patrol route from Yuma to Baja. Unexpectedly, an unlawful gunboat patrol emerged from the Barrier cloud and engaged the allied forces, resulting in a skirmish in the vicinity of Coronado, near Baja.

A local Xeno gunboat squadron picked up on the fight near Baja on the way to Cortez from Barrier Gate. They too join the fight, opportunistically trying to bleed both sides to death.

//Ingame outcome: The unlawful side has won with 3 ships remaining. All lawfuls, and Xenos, have been eliminated. Quite a close fight overall, considering there were 36 ships in the fight.
