Did a patrol of New York, Pennsylvania, Colorado and Illinois today, starting from Norfolk Shipyard and went to
Planet Manhattan via Fort Bush and Pitthsburgh. I didn't hear or see anything interesting on my way there,
except the usual nutters in system comms talking about "how to join the order" and "being stuck in a certain minefield".
Oh well. I ignored them and blissfully continued on my patrol. Upon arriving on Manhattan, however, I saw a real threat;
A Rogue gunboat sitting in Manhattan orbit. He fled nine or so K from the scene when I arrived,
saying that "he just had some business to attend to". I politely asked him to get the heck out of Manhattan airspace,
which he then promptly refused to do for about ten minutes until a Navy Gunboat arrived. The Gunboat engaged the target,
but he rather quickly succumbed to the Rogues superior anti-GB weaponry.
I luckily managed to beam up the escape pods of the crew before the Rogue, and dropped them off at West Point
on my way to the Pennsylvania System. I also called in some backup (A Dreadnought, to be precise) to the
scene before I left.
There really wasn't anything worth mentioning in Pennsylvania, except, well, the usual helium miners. As usual.
I then headed up to Colorado, taking the "scenic route" via Pueblo and the Rio Grande. After that I headed to
Illinois, and dropped off the fifteen or so Rogue and Xeno prisoners that I had picked up on my patrol at Police Plaza.
PS: I've also acquired a new fully equipped Heron for the Trade Division, FYI.
I'll see if I can't get that off the ground in proper within the end of the week.

<strike>//Not really. My image host just went down permanently; People should look trough their posts and correct
any broken images, since I see a lot of you've been using my upload of the "transmission detected" and
"transmission ends" pictures; all those are dead now. I probably won't upload any new images until I've
found a new host and some way to migrate all my old ones.</strike>
