The Berglowe responded to reports of Unioner presence in Hamburg today, grouping with the Rheinland gunboat <RM>~Jaeger and fighter pilot [RM]Fw.R.v.Ehrenberg. Unioners were persued through Cologne and Omega 54, where RM_colenge, a Fafnir-class bomber, and two other fighers; [MND]-Degenek and [RM]Fl.Rosa.D'Elise also joined the battlegroup.
Unioners fled to Omega 2, where military forces could not pursue, but Degenek was able to scout beyond the jump hole and keep tabs on them. While we waited in Omega 54 for his signal, a Red Hessian 'Jormungand'-Class battleship designated RHB-Hvannadalshnukur appeared on scanners, proceeding directly towards our position with weapons hot. The Berglowe engaged the battleship, with support from our smaller craft. The Berglowe took some damage, and the <RM>~Jaeger was unfortunately lost after getting too close to the Hessian vessel, but we were able to eliminate it.
Following that, A veritable swarm of Hessian vessels arrived, presumably tailing the Battleship. Scanner contacts were too many to verify, but there were presumably two bombers, two to three fighter craft, a gunboat, and a cruiser, as well as Unioner reinforcements coming through from Omega 2. Unfortunately we were outnumbered and outgunned, and while the Berglowe held on for as long as possible, we were overcome. Damage taken was significant, and we will likely be spending quite some time in drydock for repairs. Uploading logs...
