Liberty Rogues and VRs fired on our scouts in California [One Rogue was killed in battle, one Rogue fled, the Navy showed up to take care of the VRs] Molly [bomber] attempted piracy in Leeds [Backed down due to our superior numbers]
Casualties: Data-Lost..
A mercenary escort on our side was killed by one of the VRs in California. He was compensated for his bravery.
CEO Notes: "This was the second time running the Super Polymer Paste Route. The beginning went smoothly, but we encountered pirates towards the end. Cadet Hammerson showed good leadership during the pirate altercations and we came out pretty good. Profitable route and a good profit/minute except for the pirate troubles at the end.
Corporate fees were forwarded to the Bank."
