I finally have time to do some office work and to write overdued reports.
I was on my way to Planet Quillan to drink some Wine to end the day, as I found a Royal Navy Cruiser trying to breach our blockade in Languadoc. I immediately set an intercept course, but he managed to reach Orkney. In Orkney I managed to get into scanner range and scanned the Cruiser. As I was alone in my Bomber I realised that I might need more firepower and tried to contact Council Headquarter for assistance. Unfortunatly all Council ships were occupied with other missions, so I either had to stop the pursue or try to destroy it on my own.
I finally decided to continue the pursuit. I followed the cruiser on my own through whole Orkney and Tau 23, where the rocky terrain helped me to get into CD range and finally managed to CD it. As he refused to surrender I opened the fire on the target. Obviously he opened the fire on me too. The fight got me into the depth of Tau 37, far outside the space we already discovered. I fought him about 30 minutes, were I used a short fire pause of him to take two picture.
My ship already took some damage, but the whole fight continued 30 more minutes, were I finally managed to break through his armor and land a critical hit on his engines reactor. But before that, he managed to also land some hefty hits on my ship, as it was heavily damaged afterwards, basically my Bomber was hold together by nanobots.
I managed to take some nice pictures of an exploding Royal Navy Cruiser.
