This is Enforcer Jack Payton. I believe I have mentioned that we launched new training program for our rookies. We are also training them in handling bombers. Once again we lacked appropriate tutorial videos and as a result I was forced to prepare some of the material myself.
Topic of first video tutorial was "Advanced bomber to bomber combat". I've encountered a Liberty Rogue bomber near planet Mojave and started to follow him. He obviously lured me into a trap in Whitney Ice Field where three Outcast gunboats, one Liberty Rogue gunboat and additional bomber awaited me. They thought they have me cornered. Instead of running I just turned on my gun cam and focused on first bomber. After he exploded I switched to a second bomber and after couple of passes I was able to successfully deliver SNAC into his... erm... head.
Fortunately for me, all four gunboat pilots targeting my ship were quite unexperienced. They were unable to really hurt me. However, since I was alone, I was also unable to deliver enough punch to destroy any of them. I decided to move the fight closer to police station near planet Mojave in order to use automated defense turrets of the station to bust shields of enemy gunboats. I focused on the gunboat with the weakest armor and recorded another tutorial titled "Advanced bombing run theory". After several bombing runs Outcast gunboat was destroyed. Remaining gunboat pilots decided not to risk their ships and retreated. All, except one Liberty Rogue gunboat that after long fight was able to damage my bomber enough to force me into combat landing.
Latter on my associate Walter Sobchack put down Hellfire Legion fighter in California. Unfortunately, those damn criminals called in battleship support which forced our ships to do combat landings. In this case bounty will not even cover repair bills. But I guess this is the risk of our profession.
Also later on we were contracted by an independent trader to destroy a Lane Hacker gunboat that attacked his transport. Our target led us into Galileo system where small ambush consisting of two gunships and fighter awaited us. Due to some ion storms in Komatsu Cloud we were not able to destroy our target. Instead we destroyed the other gunship.

==== System location: New York ====
==== Subject: Successful outcast Bounty ====
Where the money is going:BHG-Righteous-Sword
Kills:One (1) ship, VHF Outcast
Circumstances: The Outcast was floating around in liberty New York System. It was obviously attacking random transports, midway in a trade lane. And did I mention it's an Outcast in NY space? Nuff said.
Comm ID: Josh Randall Location: Sheffield Station, Manchester
Where the money is going:BHG|Sumerian
Kills:Outcast Gunship
Circumstances:
Me and a couple of the lads ran into this particular Outcast in California. He claimed he was escorting a trader, but we all know exactly what that means when you're talking to an Outcast. Sadly, we didn't manage to find the cargo vessel loaed with Cardamine, but we did take out the gunship in short order.
Then I would like to claim my first Bounty directly.
Where the money is going:Salem.Adhery
Kills:Junker, Slave Liner
Circumstances: It was a Junker Slave Liner, carrying Slaves through the Tahoe Ice Cloud in California. There were two curiosities about this encounter:
1. He claimed that the Slaves in his hold were not actual Slaves but "girls for Liberty Navy Battleships", denouncing your fine soldiers.
2. He tried to bribe me with a sum of 2 million credits, which I refused of course.
I did not let myself fool and destroyed his liner. The safety of his human cargo has been ensured, every single one is alive. Since I could not bring them back to safety personally, I informed a Navy Gunboat in New York of the position and presence of the now freed people.
Two days ago we spotted Liberty Rogue fighter in California. We intercepted him and let our new contractor, Hannah Black, deal with him alone. I must say we were so impressed with her performance that she was straight away promoted to the rank of Defender and given full employee contract. From now on she will claim her bounties as a member of the EDGE.
Incident B:
Barghest Liberty Rogue Bomber / Liberty Rogue
Falcata Border Worlds Bomber / Outcast
Series Z Sabre / Outcast
Circumstances: Incident A:
I am patroling at Planet Curacao in Cortez when I see a Pirate Transport vessel. I asked him to cut engines for scanning the cargo. Bingo! A lot of Cardamine! He tried to escape but finally he dropped then I destroyed the whole stuff.
Incident B:
I going to Manchester gate from Planet Curacao when I see two hostile vessel. I engaged the bombers after some discuss.
Then a Sabre fighter appeared suddenly from Manchester to assist the bombers. (I do not have evidence of the ship type because two bomber tried to kill me and I did not have time to make a photo.)
