Flight Officer Anders here, reporting in on two engagements today.
The first was a brawl in Tau-23. Starting off next to Cali Base, WO Reaper and I aided the Hunter/Killer, an IMG Thresher, and some other pilots against a group of Samarran Raiders - Alex Zukov, Blitzcrank, Nergal's Flame - an Outcast, as well as two heavier Outcast ships.
There were also what I thought were Rheinlanders, but closer scans picked up alien technology, and I realised they were das Wilde - Zweifel and Gottfried. Despite this, a nearby Blood Dragon did not get involved in the engagement. Arctic Fox and an IMG fighter came to assist us, but with the retreat of the Thresher, Arctic's defeat and the arrival of enemy reinforcements - another 101st and even a Gaul showing up, I gave the order to fall back to Java. However, a large Nomad vessel was nearby, so we scattered to protect the station, landing safely in my case before heading back to Coronado.
Not long had I been there before hearing a call for the 15th to scramble. Just outside Barrier Gate Station were a couple of Indians' side, with more of them on the way. Wayward Wind, Warrant Officer Renard and I took on the Hopi and Comanche, before Cree and Montauk joined in for the Indians. Blackjack came in from Leeds, Arctic Fox from the Taus so we were able to take out the Comanche before the Prudence was crippled too.
Ejecting, my pod was soon taken in by the Gate and I kept up with some of the action afterwards. Nice to hear Concordia chased them off!
Signing off,
Susan Anders Callsign - Erudition/Prudence
