My flight today started particularly well, as I was able to intercept three different corporate transports, one flying for Universal Shipping and another two for Interspace. I added their ships to the Spyglass Scanner's database and had them wire several million credits to me. In any case, the transports were called Longhorn, Chesapeake and IC|Montressor. At this point, I was already quite excited as this qualified me for the Subversion criteria and possibly one third of the Ruthlessness, as well.
After this, I decided to keep on going and found two junkers, |V|-Vulcan and |V|-Scrapnation. Quickly after came an undercover LPI pilot, Short_Circuit, like the one reported by Assassin Bunt. He wanted me to hand over some prisoners I had made, but I expressed the desire to have him join them. He immediately engaged me. This particular pilot seems to favor using missiles and hellfire rockets, instead of normal guns. When I noticed that, I just made it an attrition battle until he ran out of missiles, at which point it was clear who was going to make it out of there unharmed. Much to my surprise, he crash landed Fort Bush.
When flying back to Buffalo, I came upon a modular base in New York called New York temporary prison. The automated defenses seem to be set to attack our ships, but since it appears to be a relatively new base, those same turrets don't currently pose much of a threat. I ran a search through our data base for the last 2 years and found no mention of this base. While I was investigating this base, I was also contacted by |=DSS=|Valerie.Gunsmith, asking for a meeting with Mr.White.
