I went on patrol today with Yamato Takahiro in Kyushu. We received reports about combined Golden Chrysanthemum and Outcast illegal operations around Kyushu trade lanes, not far from planet. Enemy forces consisted of one GC fighter, one GC bomber and Outcast 'Tridente' gunboat.
Honorable retreat was offered to them but none was accepted an so we had to accomplish our duty to Emperor. Although outnumbered, we managed to take one GC down before we got reinforcements from gunboat Kenhei|Kuroi.Tatsu and gunboat KSPD.Sanee.Shinjou.
Outcast also got help from one of his 'amigos', fighter [Cartel].CM.Nexx: but couldnt do much more as GC fighter and outcast gunboat soon succumbed to our concentrated fire. Only Cartel fighter survived and managed to escape with gunboat captain's pod.
After repairs, unknown contacts on scanners were located in Seiran Dust Cloud. It proved to be notorious Consortium pilots, flying two Sabres- \CS\-Karkadahi and \CS\-Interceptor.Shield. In fight that ensued, Karkadahi fighter was shot down but soon after, one of our gunboats took heavy damage.
Unexpectedly, a freelancer named Suzuki.Akane joined the fight to help lone Consortium pilot but having both lost most of their onboard repair units, they fled.
We docked on Planet Kyushu as there were no more destabilizing factors in the area.
