I want to put an small addendum to Shimada's report he filed yesterday. I was patrolling Omega-3 and he overtook me and flew to Freeport where the Corsair opened fire on him on the no-fire zone. I was just about to enter the fight when the Corsair was blown up already.
Another Corsair Augus|Plesrunas entered the scene and docked at the Freeport. But it seems Shimada got him in the Omega-5 later on.
Then the first Corsair Vest|GirtaMeshka must have had a spare ship in the Freeport because he came out and we had a bit of a standoff above the Freeport before he left.
We flew to Omega-5 where we finally engaged 3 Corsairs. Cpt. Lorenzo had the honor of being first to go since he kept running his mouth a bit too much. Other pilots had possibly fought with us before and knew that they had it coming and kept their mouths shut in hope of not drawing our attention to them.
SCRA pilot came and offered assistance which we politely turned down at first seeing that Herman Schnitt came to even up the odds. I ordered our pilots to save missiles since the threat the 3 Corsairs presented was not that great. But it did not help Corsairs to try and lauch their explosives to their own doom after Shimada CDed them to their faces. After Herman received an urgent message of unknown nature and had to disengage we had already reduced the Corsair force to consist Augis only. We had immensely hard time to kill off him since he was really jumping all over the place. It must have been something to do with Ion storm residuals. At this point SCRA pilot took part just trying to put an end to the charade. Also Wuerger took part.
But then suddenly Corsairs kept coming out, but my contribution to the fighting came to an abrupt end since I suffered a total failure in targeting systems and had to leave the battle leaving Shimada and others to fend of the Corsairs. It seems they were successful in that. Good job.
