Christopher Edwards, Battleship Akhetaten, Edinburgh System, 820 A.S.
It's been a while since I last saw that much action. This new cloaking device we had installed before leaving really served us well. We manage to sneak behind the Gallic Navy's formations, and strike them when they least expected it. Just a few seconds after they begun shooting at the Bretonian fleet, we knew their attention was diverted. Our plan worked... perfectly. The Bretonian fleet along with us took minimal damage, but the Gallic forces were obliterated. That was... a few days ago. It was a bright start, but our sources are informing us an even bigger Gallic fleet is on the move, headed right to us. We may have free'd Edinburgh, but it is only for the time being. We are in no position to engage on a large scale battle. For now we wi- a large explosion occurs, the damage it caused can easily be guessed, seeing the video recording What the he-static
A few days later. . .
That was the most near death experience we've had. An entire Gallic fleet decloaked in our sector. Leaving us no time to react they started bombarding us. We had to make a run for it. We headed to the Leeds jumpgate, a full retreat was ordered... that was when a second Gallic fleet decloaked, blocking the path to the jumpgate. We were trapped... We had to fight back, we were doomed, our firepower was severely below theirs. That was when, to our surprise, our fleet joined in; Command knew the Akhetaten will be outnumbered and sent reinforcements our way. Having just jumped in the system, we were informed via long range communications that aid is coming. We took heavy damage and weren't able to resume fighting, that was when our fleet arrived; Interdictors, Overlords, and a few Atlantis-class Carriers were quickly inbound. The Battlecruisers covered our rear while the Atlantis-classes along with the Overlords bombarded the Gallic fleet blocking the jumpgate. The enemy suffered heavy casualties and retreated, for now. We jumped back to Leeds, our fleet saved us all.
From what we've been gathering from recent communications the Gallics haven't sent any more backup, thus the fight is over. One thing's for sure... the Gallic forces will not give up.
Our repairs are almost finished. We need to head back out there and keep scouting the sector. I don't think this ends here....
