Flight Officer Anders here, fresh in from the Madness that has replaced the normally quiet Tau-37.
The miners aboard Falkland picked up a rabble of Outcasts looking menacing around Freeport 10. Heading out to scare them off, it turned out to be a massive cloud of Outcast fighters. The Guild's own ships, a Bounty Hunter, several Colonials outside our command, a few Maquis and a couple of Unione Corse ships matched them, although the swarm just kept growing, including a Ranseur.
My decision to replace the Erudition's 'exotic' setup with more usual weaponry turned out to be a good choice: the rain of Screamers and Mini Razor particles did a fair share of the damage to the dreadnought the Maltese brought along. Even managed to hit one of their 'elite guard'.
However, even with some of their fighters taken out, we lost our larger ships and started to take damage. With the Maquis and Corse 'picking their battles', those of us who stood our ground were taken out.
Also, Looking back through the black-box, seems I've missed a rather dozy Outcast who had enough hand-eye coordination to catch my SNAC.
Signing off,
Susan Anders Callsign - Erudition/Wisdom
