Those Harvesters! They have grown very bold in New Berlin. Just yesterday I helped a Lane Hacker gunboat piloted by an Outcast to take down Harvester 17. I was flying only Odin, so my influence to the outcome of the battle was a bit limited, but I provided enough distraction to the Harvester that Outcast was able to kill of that abominable machine. Before I could ask what an Outcast was doing in New Berlin we were attacked by another an bounty hunter gunboat which called for help in from the RM. We drove the RM pilot away, but the gunboat managed to destroy the Hacker gunboat and I had to flee. The New Berlin has become a real circus it seems.
After landing in Vogtland I decided to take care of some reputational matters with Schwalbe as well as test out weapons systems. I flew to Bering via Hamburg to see them taken care of. I conducted business in Bering pretty swiftly without encountering anything worth reporting. On my way back to Vogtland from Kreuzberg, where I stopped to resupply and catch up the latest rumors, a lone Rheinlandian military gunboat was waiting at the Bonn station. I decided to cut my engines and see if the pilot would come out of the protection of the battleship. He came out and it was a good time to test out the weapons systems. I gave him all the trouble he could handle and some more. Vogtland got some needed supplies in form of pharmaceuticals and water.
I then flew the Schwalbe to Ronneburg via Vogtland, where she is now strenghtening our defenses against the seemingly more powerful and frequent capital ship incursions of the Corsairs.
