Today was a great day it seems, although we nearly lost one of our own. Me and Captain Velvet were testing out new ships and had just completed lauch checks when we picked up someone talking over the normal Comms.
They were talking about Ghosts so naturally we went to investigate, when we arrived, the person talking was flying a cargo ships of sorts and began fireing upon us. We had no intentions of attacking this vessel yet but were forced to defend ourselves in light of the situation.
We followed him and I was engaged by a police vessel and my test ship was destroyed. Luckly some local Hessians came to the rescue and picked me up. I boarded my main fighter and headed to New Berlin, to check how Captain Velvet was doing.
He had just killed the scum as i came within viewing range and we then traveled to the local Junkers base for repairs and a few beers. Upon our arrival a RepX security spotted us and engaged us. We fought for quite some time as he was in a bomber and one false move could spell death.
Captain Velvet had mechanical errors with his ship and it nearly cost him his life, he ejected just in time and i tractored him into my fighter before harm was done to him. I continued to fight the bomber untill at least i defeated him with no real damage done to my ship. I took the Captain back to Vogtland so he could refit himself and so we could finally have ourselves some beers.
We were lucky today, we must be carefull what we do, one false move could be our last.
