Le Gérant again, I have a lot to report today yet again, I like to make my reports count.
I'll start with the least interesting to the most interesting.
First of all, I was able to successfully capture a few pilots to hand over to one of our interrogator at Cochrane, I hope they'll spit out some handy informations. Got myself a few bounty hunters but the Xenos were especially active that day. 1-1.
Here we have my current repuations with the different factions we're allied with. As you can see, I try to make the Lane Hackers proud, after doing a bit of dirty work for them. our Molly and Golden Chrysanthemum allies look favorably to me and that is without saying, so does the Outcasts and Liberty Rogues. I hope to work more with these fine chaps. 1-1.
Now we're getting to the fun part, I was able to get myself intel on 3 different vessels. Two belonging to the 5th and one belonging to Liberty Navy. One of them is a real treat.
We'll start with the two 5th, unfortunately I didn't have the time to dig up a whole lot on them as they were already weapons hot on all of us.
Here we have Mr. Carl Harrisford of the 5th flying a Guardian VHF and packing quite a lot of heat. 2-1, 2-2.
Next we have Mr Jean Valor who actually got embarassingly shot down soon after I took this intel on him *laugh* However, this one interestingly enough had a Cloaking Device mounted on his ship. 3-1, 3-2.
Alright, now on to the best part, the Liberty Navy Intel I got. I was able to extract some very valuable intel out of him, I can't believe how bad I had him playing into my hand. I knew they weren't the smartest bunch but this hits a whole new level, I can't believe how naive he was.
As you can see, there is everything in there, cargo hold, payload, equipment, etc. You will understand once I post the transcript on why I was able to get all this intel rather easily without a single risk to my life.
But wait, there's more. With the ample time I was able to buy myself, I was able to successfully hack into the records of the vessel and get even more intel out of the vessel and its crew.
Commissioned roughly 4 years from now: "I'd like to inform you that of 1700 hours, the [LN]-LNF-Miami was put into service. She is primarily an anti-fighter/bomber ship, with both engines and maneuverability thrusters tweaked to their full potential."
Originally belonged to a certain Captain Jack Malrone. Now the vessel belongs to Commander Helen Den and her second in command Lieutenant Commander Michael Dale: "This is Lieutenant Commander Michael Dale, second in command on the Miami. First of all, Commander Helen Den is in the med bay. Before today's patrol, we had an accident in the hangar bay. The commander is under medical investigation. Doctors didn't allow her to come on deck so I took temporary command of the ship."
Ontop of it all, I was also able to get some valuable informations out of their prisoner route. It would appear that prisoners are first brought to the Zoner Base, Bethlehem Station in Pennsylvania before being sent in a Prisoner Liner for transit to LPI Sugarland in Texas. This information could prove useful if we ever have to ambush their Prisoner convoy for any reason.
With that all said and done, here's the transcript on why all this was made possible: Z-1
How easily manipulated he was, I pulled at his hearstrings a bit and he totally believed all of my bleeding heart story! Ah! Can you believe that? Does he even know what we're capable of? Did he really think he could stay there and have a chat with me to try and make me renounce on my life as a Lane Hacker without me hacking into all of his systems and digging up just about everything I can on them and their vessels? I don't think it will work again but I still can't believe how naive the [LN] could be *laugh*.
That's my report for the day. I trust this should cover every assignments I had plus some more like the Personality assignment. I was also told that Intelligence of significant value would be rewarded for 5 million credits though it is not for me to say if my intel was of significant value enough or not.
I was also told that if I could do every Initiate assignments without losing my ship a single time that I would also be given a bonus *smirk*, I trust you remember.
