Greetings, gentlemen of the High Command.
As I was about to write this report, I actually noticed some evidence takes I made a week ago and actually missed to write a report on them. I apologize for this mistake and will include them within this report now.
Patrol report May 23rd, 822 A.S
Undocking from Fort Severn, I made my way to patrol through the Systems. Entering New York, I moved to West Point, where I met Lieutenant Commander Sader. Joining up in a task force with him, I took the lane to Planet Manhattan, and he took the way to Norfolk.
On his way on the lane he noticed a Rogue Bomber named "Double.Red.Head". I made my way back to West Point, while Lieutenant Commander Sader was already chasing after the Rogue towards Badlands.
I managed to reach them Lieutenant Commander Sader in time close to Buffalo Station. He told me to take care of the Rogue, while he remained out of the combat, as support, just in case. I engaged the Rogue Bomber and took some damage, but I managed to destroy Double.Red.Head, by triggering a mine and his own nova torpedo with a cruise distruptor missle, while he tried to dock at the Buffalo station. I took his escape pod into my cargo hold and set him down on Battleship Missouri.
Restocked ammunition and nanos after that, we continued our patrol, without further incidents. Ending my patrol, I returned to Fort Severn.
Undocking form Fort Severn, I made my way to patrol through the Systems. Entering Colorado, I noticed a Rogue Bomber named "LR-Born.To.Be.Mild". I was chasing after him and receiving a message by a member of the Kusari Police that a whole group of Rogues actually caused trouble in Shikoku. The Rogue LR-Born.To.Be.Mild cut his engines in the Copperton Asteroid Field, where he engaged me. I took some damage but I managed to shoot him down and prevent him to support the other Rogues in Shikoku. Taking his escape pod into my cargo hold, I moved to Battleship Missouri and set him down there, then I got my ship repaired and equipment restocked.
Once repairs and restocking were done, I undocked and moved to Planet Manhattan where I noticed a pirate named "Martin.Xavier" close to Rochester base. He resisted any attempt to arrest him and even began to fire at me. I returned to fire and engaged him, taking some damage but destroyed his ship, before I took his escape pod into my cargo hold.
After that, got my ship repaired and equipment restocked, before I joined in a taskforce with Lieutenant Commander Sader and Commodore Webb. There were no further indicents and I returned to Fort Severn later.
When I undocked from Fort Severn, I received a call by Lieutenant Commander Sader, to move to New York as soon as possible. I joined up in a taskforce with him, Admiral Baker, the [LN]-LNS-Lansing and Navy pilot Iro.Spot. Arriving in New York, I was told to move to Fort Bush - Manhattan lane. I made my way to said location and noticed our troops and two hostile capital ships. An Outcast Gunboat named "Lick.A.Brick" and Rogue Scylla Destroyer named "California.Blue". I noticed a dis-function on my radar system, marking allied vessels as hostile, likely because of the taken damage. It was repaired later that day.
We engaged said hostile vessels, focusing on one by one. Together we managed to inflict heavy damage on both ships, while I did the last shot on Lick.A.Brick, Lieutenant Commander Sader destroyed California.Blue. Their escape pods have been taken into cargo hold and set down on Planet Manhattan, later.
We moved to Planet Manhattan, in order to repair our ships then, though we noticed an Outcast Dreadnought named "Gold.Miner" in the Detroid Derby Field. Engaging the capital ship together, it didn't last long. His escape pod has been taken into cargo hold and set down on Planet Manhattan. I got my ship repaired and equipment restocked at Norfolk.
When my ship was repaired and ready for action, I undocked and immediately noticed a Junker named .:J:.PickupTruck piloting a Pirate Train Transport. I ordered him to cut his engines, and he cooperated without any incidents. Explaining him the situation, he was willing to pay the fine of 1 million Sirius Credits. I escorted him to Puerto Rico jumphole and left him with a warning. After that, I returned to New York and moved to Fort Bush.
Arriving at Fort Bush, I received a call by a trader, that she was about to be pirated by two pirates. I joined in a taskforce with an LPI-Officer, and we moved to Fort Bush - Manhattan lane, were we met said trader and the two pirates named "The.Worst.Nightmare" and "BoomV".
The trader managed to escape without any damage, while we engaged the two pirates. Unfortunately the LPI-Officer was shot down soon, leaving me alone against two, draning my nanos and shield batteries, so I retreated to Planet Manhattan. Chasing after me, they inflicted more damage on my ship. Boom V moved away, while The.Worst.Nightmare stayed.
Being able to fight him one on one, I turned and re-engaged him. It was close but I managed to do that much damage that he was finally shot down by the regular Navy Patrol. His escape pod has been taken into my cargo hold. I returned to Planet Manhattan and got my ship repaired along and equipment restocked.
Undocking from Planet Manhattan I noticed BoomV shooting some regular Navy pilots, so I moved in to stop him. The fight was pretty close, since the pirate seemed to actually have disguised his true potential before, making me believe he was an easy target.
I took heavy damage during the fight, and so did he. Thanks to LNS|SantaFe, further damage on my ship could be prevented, when the captain ordered to fire at BoomV, destroying him in one shot. His escape pod has been taken into LNS|SantaFe's cargo hold.
I got my ship repaired and equipment restocked at Manhattan, then I returned to Fort Severn to end my patrol for this day.
Due to the high level of damage inflicted to my ship, no evidence of the pirate's destruction could be taken.
