Nothing special to report on my first time out, though I am surprised at the sheer amount of Outcasts flying throughout the taus. I encountered my first one after leaving Tau-39 and heading towards Java just a few minutes after my flight began. As there were miners in the area I politely asked him to leave, though he just taunted me and said I could try to remove him if I felt like it, so I did just that.
Afterwards I ran into another Outcasts being shot by a trio of Gallic miners, but try as they might they were unable to do anything that resembled even grazing their target. Eventually a large vessel of some kind, Gallic origin as well came to their aid, hailing the Outcast to make a run for it, and he did just that. Once we were alone he made a reference to wanting to pick on me, but he learned that not all miners give way to bullies.
Once all was quiet I made my way down to the Omegas and met the transport ship "Glomma" with Axel Fruehauf as its captain. The trip to New Tokyo with a hold full of ore was completely uneventful surprisingly enough. With the ore safely tucked away on Roppongi we set a path back to Java. We encountered an Outcast in Kyushu on the way, but he was quickly disposed of with no damage to the transport. Just as well another Outcast was found in Tau-23, but he was also taken care of before he could interfere with the transport in anyway.
I believe I spent the rest of my time with Axel flying around Tau-23, until we ran into a pair of nomads. After quite some time it became obvious that they would cause no harm whatsoever. I decided to return to Java and retire with the system in order. Below are guncams attached from the ordeal.
