Earlier today, I received a report from one of the dockmasters of Ravenna Invicta. A Rheinland corporate transport was interested in buying our relics! I took that with humor. I am not sure if the captain is naive, courageous or just insulting us. But the way he approached the dockmaster seemed serious. So, under this opportunity, I dispatched a gunboat loaded with a twenty-man boarding party to give our new guest a warm welcome.
Our gunboat approached the transport, the Duhandzic, a civilian-made Stork, and ordered the transport to drop its shields. So it did, and the boarding action began:
[15.06.2023 15:25:26] DTR-CNS>Trireme: Muy bien! Starting docking procedure. [15.06.2023 15:25:30] Shields Disabled
[15.06.2023 15:25:34] Duhandzic: Sorry it took so long.
[15.06.2023 15:25:42] Duhandzic: You are clear to dock.
[15.06.2023 15:26:18] DTR-CNS>Trireme: Cobra: We're in, Trireme. Making way.
[15.06.2023 15:26:27] Duhandzic: Welcome aboard Marines.
[15.06.2023 15:26:33] DTR-CNS>Trireme: Trireme: Report any resistance.
[15.06.2023 15:26:42] DTR-CNS>Trireme: Cobra: Si. Copiado. Making way around the rooms.
[15.06.2023 15:26:57] DTR-CNS>Trireme: [The marines scan around the ship and round up the crew]
[15.06.2023 15:27:13] DTR-CNS>Trireme: Cobra: Where is the captain?
[15.06.2023 15:27:21] Duhandzic: Don't worry fellas, they are just checking.
[15.06.2023 15:27:40] Duhandzic: Captain is on the bridge.
[15.06.2023 15:28:14] DTR-CNS>Trireme: Cobra: Senor Duhand? Bridge? Got it. Cobra, spread out. Team one will go to the bridge. Team two will remain at the cargo bay.
[15.06.2023 15:28:36] DTR-CNS>Trireme: [Cobra 1 takes the elevator to the command center, looking for the captain.]
[15.06.2023 15:28:56] DTR-CNS>Trireme: [Cobra 2 rounds up the crew and keeps them at bay, zip-tying them]
[15.06.2023 15:29:22] DTR-CNS>Trireme: [Cobra 1 Arrives at the bridge. They come out with their plasma rifles out]
[15.06.2023 15:29:34] DTR-CNS>Trireme: Cobra 1: No funny business! Who's the captain?
[15.06.2023 15:29:55] DTR-CNS>Trireme: Trireme: Trireme to Cobra. SITREP.
[15.06.2023 15:30:08] DTR-CNS>Trireme: Cobra 2: Cobra two reporting, status nominal. No resistance.
[15.06.2023 15:30:50] Duhandzic: I believe everything is okay gentleman...
[15.06.2023 15:31:39] DTR-CNS>Trireme: Cobra 1: You look like the captain. We'll take the helm from now on. [Duhandzic is shoved aside by a marine and zip-tied]
[15.06.2023 15:32:11] DTR-CNS>Trireme: Cobra 1: On your knees, captain! Don't move a muscle, or I'll send a message to your crew.
[15.06.2023 15:34:23] DTR-CNS>Trireme: Cobra 1: We've taken control of the ship, Trireme. Setting course to Invicta for processing.
[15.06.2023 15:34:52] DTR-CNS>Trireme: [The marine team leader sets the ship computer's to moore with Invicta] [15.06.2023 15:35:02] Shields Enabled
[15.06.2023 15:36:10] DTR-CNS>Trireme: Cobra 1: Status nominal. Mooring with invicta now.
The captain and his crew are in the brig. His ship is moored and secured.
That concludes my report. I have no interest on the captain and crew, the ship will be a nice trophy. The members of the Conclave can do whatever they see fit with these Rheinlanders.
