Subject: Attack (NovaPG and Bushido)
Earlier today New Berlin fell under attack by these 2 factions. Erich Hartmann and myself, in the Aurora, engaged the pirates to find that there was an Dragon Gunship in Rheinland. 2 fighters were hot on Erich, so I diverted them to attack me and managed to blast one of the fighters. Unfortunately, The pilot ejected and was tractored by the Dragon GB. Then, the Vineta showed up for support, but I was too damaged and ordered my crew to abandon ship. The Vineta tractored them in, so they are on extended Absence to spend time with their families. Only my bridge crew remained as I thought I was going to go down with the ship (The Dragon GB managed to punch 2 very large holes through the Aurora, not to mention badly damaging her.) We managed to limp the Aurora back to oder shipyard, where she is still dry docked and being patched up. The repairs will take sometime, but the Aurora will be good as new within the week. The crew of the Aurora and Myself owe our lives to the captain of the Vineta. Thank you.
The Vineta and Erich continued the battle, destroying a few more fighters until Erich was shot down. He ejected and was tractored by the Vineta as well. (The server crashed at this point, so the battle ended.)
Everyone fought well, and we took down 3-4 of them when we only lost 2.
I also would like to recommend Erich Hartmann for promotion to Commander. He is highly skilled in a Bomber, and I believe that he would do excellent in a Gunship. If necessary, I will step down and be Demoted so that he may be promoted. He has earned it, and has the skill for it.
