TARGET ID:Liberty Navy High Command SUBJECT:Patrol Report #OED-2891: New York and Rheinland Actions ENCRYPTION:High PRIORITY:Medium
Well, I'm playing a bit of catch up for the activities of the past week. I finally managed to acquire a Li-177 "Upholder" Bomber. I actually bought it secondhand from a recently retired Secondary Fleet officer, and after a few small adjustments it's become an absolute joy to fly.
Anyways, the week started off with a patrol along with [color=#33FF33]Ensign Rohj Teerin. After a few routine encounters, we came across a Bounty Hunter named Antonio Merchant in a Thresher destroyer in New York. He wouldn't leave, so, despite multiple warnings, we engaged him with the assistance of the LNS Rosemont. I managed to easily take him down with a volley of Hellfire Missiles.
Later, Teerin and I received a distress call from Secondary Fleet forces in New York. A rogue Secondary Fleet capital ship, the Yorktown, had fired on Melbourne Station's defenses and fled into Zone-21. I organized a strike team to pursue the ship into **REDACTED** but we were unable to track it down.
Later on the same day, I was at Manhattan when I received a distress call from a Omicron Supply Industries transport nearby. Turns out he was under fire from a Liberty Navy Secondary Fleet Cruiser, of all things. The ship's name was ^Think#Asu$*Force. I moved to assist the Zoner ship, a Whale designated OSI-Eternal.Light. The ship was summarily destroyed with the assistance of a SFC fighter. Request the High Command look into the illegal actions of this Liberty vessel.
A few days later, several Rheinland cruisers managed to break through our defense net in Texas and made it into the New York system. They were led by the BDM|RNC-Brynhildr, a long-time foe of the Navy. We didn't manage to track the Brynhildr down, but we did manage to hunt down and kill her consorts, .:FlashBurg:. and the RNC Schvumkopf. Afterwards we saw [RM]Fl.Bastian.Moeller enter the system from Texas. He was pursued to Rochester but managed to dock before we could finish him off. I also ended up blasting a Rogue-tagged Scylla, The.Very.Big.Funboat, in California with a few snubcraft and a gunboat assisting him in piracy.
Finally, last night we formed a small task group to enter Rheinland space for a raid. The group consisted of:
Vice Admiral Baker, on the Bunker Hill
Captain Sanders
Commander Clark, on the Blue Ridge
Lieutenant Commander Sius, on the MacArthur
Lieutenant Commander Polstari
Ensign Teerin
and Myself
We entered Hamburg and then New Berlin, and engaged two Rheinlander Wraiths. We successfully destroyed one, but the other managed to escape. Lieutenant Commander Polstari lost his ship, but his pod was successfully recovered.
On our way back, we also took out a couple of blockade runners, Meat.Popcicle and Corbin.Dallas. Keep an eye out for them in the future.
