I do not usually add to this journal, but today was busy and thought I would do so
Started with routine patrol around Colorado. Immediately saw Xenos and a primary fleet member sparring by the CO-NY jumpgate, but was told to ignore the criminal presence and leave the area. Subsequent intercepted Xeno transmissions showed the Liberty forces were defeated.
Travelling along the northern Colorado lanes, I spotted SCRA fleet in Kepler system. I alerted the primary fleet members in New York who were listed in the active comms directory, but did not receive a response. SCRA eventually moved into Colorado, and through Ontario into California. Primary fleet members were notified of the advancements, but did not respond. I continuted to shadow from a distance, and also drafted LNS|Braveheart (another GB from the secondary fleet) who agreed to provide assistance in monitoring the movements.
About that time, a pirate by the name of Abismo appeared in an Explorer, with an all Cerberus/Razor loadout. He said Liberty forces were under bounty fromt the Rogues and opened fire. I called LNS|Braveheart back and together we beat him down. Braveheart got the kill shot, I got the repair bill. Cerbs on an Explorer hurt like crazy
Unfortunatley I then fell asleep in the dock, and was out of action for an hour or so. When I came back, I discovered that the SCRA had moved into NY, and headed into town. The comms list showed no other LN personnel in NY at that time, however I did see David Hale and another primary fleet member sparring in Virginia. I informed them of the SCRA presence and resumed trying to locate the forces. I encountered additional LN forces and informed them of the presence, but did not receive any further reports. Finally they were discovered, and a battle commenced. Herewith is my log:

A couple of the SCRA were kiilled in the resulting furball, others fled to California and Texas (the one named Alla.Alesky appeared to have second thoughts and was subsequently spotted heading out through Ontario). I went into Texas but was unable to locate the attacker. I did see Hale, who gave me a tongue-lasshing for refusing to stand down during the fight, saying the situation was covered. [??]
I did another loop through NY and saw another skirmish between primary fighters and a lane hacker and pirate tango, but was once again instructed to leave the area. I have no idea of the outcome.
Upon reflecting on today's events, I have decided that I will take some time off from my duties. All of Liberty is being treated like the Connecticut arenas by primary fleet, and I need time to think about what this means.
