Fifth Fleet member Jack O'Neil, Primary pilot Reed Icarus, and myself were very busy today. We engaged a Gaian Gunship in California and Icarus scrapped it up, we shipped supplies around for the logistics core, then we received a distress call from a Republic vessel. A Rogue Scylla and Barghest were spotted around Norfolk Shipyard, and we responded to the call. Scylla callsign NR-Good.For.Nothing was engaged and quickly fled to Buffalo Base. We engaged the Barghest pilot star01 after the Scylla made a run into Bullalo, and the Barghest called for a mass of other Rogue pilots to his assistance, fled bomber fire for a long period, and finally crashed his ship into Buffalo Base's docking bays. After retreating from over fifteen Rogue pilots and a gunboat, we spotted HF vessels. Unable to engage them in our current state, we scattered, but Icarus bravely engaged to allow O'Niel and I to escape. After that, a Hellfire Legion battlegroup entered New York with a Rouge Scylla, a HF Battleship, and one of the earlier Hellfire combatants. LPI officer Moe Knox engaged the bomber [HF]-Gamma.6 and was put out of action by the battlegroup. In my current state, I was unable to assist him without getting sent into the void myself. I called for the Primary Fleet to sent reinforcements, but no response was sent back, and we could not repel them without more forces. They retreated after the destruction of Knox's vessel, and I had to go get Knox to the infirmary. The sight of a Hellfire Legionnaire piloting a Liberty Rogue Scylla destroyer is highly worrisome. If they are allied in any way, then our jobs will get a whole lot worse.
