Today, I was assigned to Ensign Rachel Baker for a New York full-sweep patrol. Starting our patrol from the Norfolk shipyard, we didn't even managed to reach a Trade-Lane before a hostile Rogue Gunboat was spotted cruising towards our direction. I pursued and intercepted the enemy while Ensign Baker was calling Commander Galen Anderson for backup. With the combined firepower from the three of us, we managed to swiftly neutralize the target before it reached safe grounds. The chase ended up near the Fort Bush vicinity where an unexpected event, to say the least, occurred with one of the LNS Battlecruisers. This incident will be reported separately and thus I won't include any information regarding the event here.
Our patrol continued to the West Point Academy where we spotted two Lane Hackers causing commerce shutdown. As our team arrived, both hostiles decided to retreat and we aborted the chase once they reached the Badlands. However, you crush one bug and two more will replace him, one Outcast and surprisingly one Junker were firing upon Commander Anderson near one of the trade-lanes which connected West Point to Planet Manhattan. I immediately moved to the scene and managed to destroy the Outcast Bomber Pilot which caused the Junker to retreat to the badlands.
