Today was an insane day : At Approximately 03:40 SMT: I was enjoying my respite from leeds by taking some time out on new tokyo. The Alert flashed me; I quickly grabbed my jacket, pills, and made my way out to meet the uninvited.
The system was chaotic; deafening chatter filled the airwaves: accusations of attacks, and their respective denials. I have provided a fragment of the ships log here
Unfortunately I cannot comment on what happened with "Bank.'O.Rocks""sam.ralston" and "anon". I can recount what happened when I arrived in Tokyo space.
I managed to gain the following from scans:
Udder.Doom - Miner , Kamome, adv cargo scanner, mk 8 armour.
[SEF]andromeda - LSF , LN IFF, upholder, disco scanner, mk 8 armour.
[SEF]GajchE - LN , LN IFF, Havoc, disco scanner, mk 8 armour.
LNS-Thrax - LN (LPI IFF), LN GB, deep scanner, no armour.
So, it seems that the incident took place in colorado (possibly shikoku), and continued on into New Tokyo. "Theophilus", accuses "udder.Doom" and "Somnambulic.Profits" of attacking and stealing from him and his wingman. Later "Cow.Plow" Informed me that they were also attacked by the liberty navy, in the same incident.
Whilst "udder.Doom" and "Somnambulic.Profits" maintain that "Theophilus" and the liberty navy attacked them and chased them to new tokyo.
The Liberty Navy and LSF 'escorts' responded to the pirating act upon their people. The victims claim that "platinum ore" is what was stolen from them.
The alleged 'pirates were, apparently:"Pillbug" (kusari), "udder.Doom", "Somnambulic.Profits" OR the liberty navy and security force.
also present during the course of madness:
"Brent.Smith",
"tasmania"
"RamboMambo"
"[7]Moto.Ikan"
"Pillbug"
"Dr.Ock_Oldbins"
"Zukeenee"
"Kishiro|Masaru.Shun"
This is a transcript from my questioning of one of the victims:
"[KNF]Takahashi: So where was it that they allegedly stole your ore ?
Theophilus: They say they are miners and traders, and yet they pirate our vessel and steal
our ore Theophilus: We were trying to get to new Tokyo
Theophilus: Coming through Shikoku
Theophilus: They attacked my friend, and luckily I managed to escape
Theophilus: Then they chased after me
Theophilus: As I came through to New Tokyo they attacked me suddenly and brutally
Theophilus: As everyone stands idly by!
Theophilus: They demanded my hard earned ore and now they say we stole from them
[KNF]Takahashi: I just started shift in response to an alert sorry
[KNF]Takahashi: so it was this udder.doom and who else ? brent smith ? Theophilus: brent smith is a good man
Theophilus: Pillbug, udder.doom, somnambulic.profits and
Theophilus: Another
[KNF]Takahashi: Do you need an escort through shikoku ? Theophilus: What's the use
Theophilus: I have lost everything "
Of course there were other allies present : [KSP]Kataguri, [KNF]Shiki.Tohno, IKN-Ishiyamdera, IKN|Ame-Chan's.Yacht.
After the shift had ended, just myself and Kataguri were left on patrol, when a Havoc, Liberty Navy Guard ship, was spotted and refused Kataguri's requests to return home. The ship was named vivat.
We followed the ship to planet honshu: where it turned and fired on me without warning. I asked the psycho to stop; which interrupted their madness, long enough to initiate a dialogue. Unfortunately I couldn't understand a word they said, so kataguri took care of things. I believe samura-Kouji[/b] was witness to this. During this chase I lost a corsair named "Acetylene".
Kataguris shift ended, and [KSP]Tomimoto.Tachiko arrived shortly after. I met a young hogosha and [AFA]Sousuke-Patro on the way out of NT, and so felt that they would be able to take care of any trouble: I left for leeds where i again saw Samura|-Kouji in good health.It was then that the LNS-thrax initiated comms with me:
LNS-Thrax: may i ask is samura supporting the kusari pirate attacks in liberty
LNS-Thrax: the kishiro says yes [KNF]Takahashi: what sorry ? samura don't support pirates : and the only kusari
'pirate' attacks in liberty that i've heard of have been today
[KNF]Takahashi: and they were both miners or something ..I'll have to check my records
LNS-Thrax: ok its happened before [KNF]Takahashi: they are not actually affiliated with kusari
LNS-Thrax: and its getting worse
LNS-Thrax: ok
LNS-Thrax: they are using kusari as a haven
LNS-Thrax: im rightnow escorting kishiro|woodstock
After defending stokes until the heavy patrols showed up, I made my way back to New tokyo.
It was here that I encountered : Fujiwara.Michiyo, Kusari.Shop-Kunigami, KNF-Natsuzuki, and IKN-Tawaramoto. A dragon (]bd[Hirosho.Horatami) who I have met before attempted to insult Honourable Chen-sama, so i asked him to apologise and leave the system. Later he returned with allies; ]bd[Kusari's.Decline, and Curt:Remmert who were dispatched by Fujiwara.Michiyo. After All of this, I managed to return to my bunk on the nagasaki and got some blissful sleep.
