Topic: New York Patrol
I just came back to Manhattan(to Patrol) after getting my ship shot down yesterday.
I was checking lanes and detected -while flying- a local communication between XA-Sunbeam and a trader. Immediatly I warned LSF -because there was none LN/LPI- about XA-Sunbeam because yesterday he took place with XA-Sidewinder, Independant.Pirite and some free-pirates in destruction of one LPI, LSF and LN shuttle(And some trade vessels probably).
The Xeno(Sunbeam) was telling the trader to drop his goods and leave the area. So after this very clear pirating action LSF came closer. Cedric Steele and Xeno Sunbeam started coming closer and firing. As LSF started giving back-fire, I started giving some support fire from distance.
After a long dogfight near Fort Bush in space of New York, I shot Cedric down.
But later one of the LSF personnel got shot down by the Xeno and also I ran out of shield batteries.
However, the Xeno used cruise engines to ran out of the system. He made his way to Connecticut System which falls out of LPI's jurisdication, so I turned back and made it back to Fort Bush for refuelling. But somehow, the Xeno just came back as LSF did. We chased him around New York system a bit. But then I lost his track. However LSF kept chasing him to Colorado System as I remember.
Other than this no contrabad found. Also the ionstorms are getting close to Planet Manhattan day by day.
