Today, 20:17 SMT, Battleship Moselle's alarm went off and scrambled me into space for intercepting pirate activites in New Berlin System. After rendevouz with Gen.Leutnant Schmitt at Dortmund Station, we started to search the Pirates. As the search led us to into Stuttgart System, we tracked the Pirates down while being enroute to Planet Hamburg. The disabled Tradelane forced us to exit our transit just infront of the Pirates as they were already halting a Borderworld-Exports Transport.
As we've joined the Scene, the pair of Pirate started to run for saftely. What led to an almost instant engagement by the Generalleutnant and me, chasing down the Pirate Bomber, as it possed a bigger threat for the Transport. We successfully neutralized the Pirate Bomber and chased off the Fighter Vessel.
As Admiral Weissmann at this time, was dispatched in Operations against the Hessians in the Omegas, we've decided to continue onward to Omega 7 to aid support if needed. As we joined the scene from a flanking position, our sensors picked up a Hessian running for the Omega 11 Jumphole, and we again engaged. although we were not able to completely neutralize the Hessian Fighter vessel due to some heavy Ion Storms, we managed to scare him off to their Base heavily damaged. Where he for sure will stay grounded for a while.
We returned to Omega 7, to join up with the Admiral, where we again encountered the BowEx transport from before, reporting about a Gallic Royal Navy Gunboat operating within Rheinland Territory. Admiral Weissmann decided that me and Schmitt shall escort the Bretonian to the Border before we continue. As we reached the Jumpgate to Omega-3, and the BowEx Transport jumped into Bretonian Territory, we we're half way on return to the Admiral, as we recieved an emergency call from the Transport being pirated just at the other side of the Gate.
Admiral Weissmann immediately ordered us to return to the Jumpgate, and follow the Bowex's jump into Omega 3, to aid assistance. Already having visual on the Transport as we arrived through the Gate, we tried to convince the Pirate to leave the Bowex vessel. As he did not comply, but started to insult as, we engaged and destroyed the vessel.
With the neutralization of the Threat, we immediately left Omega-3 toward Stuttgart, where we docked for refueling.
