Before day or two ... I intercepted one of the phantom ships ... he refused to stop and resisted arrest and in the end we started fight ... his ship even less agile then me moved around asteroid field with easy ... and my magma hammers were too slow to hit him. In the end ... i got shot down ... ship destroyed i escaped with pod to safety ... today i was scrolling down info and found picture ... probably some error and it took picture in the middle of fight
Where to start...
On my way to patrol the problematic system, California, I ran into a group of pirates/mercs/freelancers on the lane to California gate. At least 5 of them, Plasmodium, Jose'.Marti, "Cataclyms"-ProjectX, Seraphim and John.Icemount, there was another pilot Sokel, but I can't be sure if it was a pirate or someone just passing, because they all were screaming at the moment.
I tried to use some psychological threats to get them out of the area without firing, no that I had more options, but unfourtanely, they said they wanted my... well.. corpse. So, they started to fire on me, the five of them, the whole bunch.
Lieutenant Pleteki from the LNS-Destiny.II called a freelancer to assist me, someone by the name of *classified to protect his/her integrity*, let's just call him Billy. By the time that Billy came, I got one of them down:
Commander Anderson, came to assist, and I took the second down:
But, it went down the hill, more pirates arrived, a gunboat and a destroyer at least, and I don't know how many fighter/bombers. The LNS-Destiny.II tried to assist us, but it got destroyed really fast.
A fourtanely Ion Storm knocked, and several ships, from their side, were lost.
But, some of them were still there, and me and Billy, had to fight them.
Lucky us, the destroyer was lost, same as the gunboat.
Today, Ensign Marcus Pain, the LSF agent Interceptor, and myself, went to patrol New York and California systems. Right at West Point, we ran into a transport with outcasts signal, a more detailed scan showed that it was a smuggler as he had no cargo. First, we let him go, but when we ran into him again in California he got some Light Arms, and when we tried to stop him, a random hacker by the name of Orillion shot on me.
This Smuggler, Dr..Pepper, came back with som VIPs, and we disrupted him in the way to West Point, seems he wanted to get into Manhattan, which I'd never allow it, it could be a trap from Outcasts, those VIPs might be Outcasts ready to try something in our space ports, or something worst. Therefore, with a lot of previous warnings to turn around and keep his mouth shut, we took that transport down, and took the VIPs to West Point academy, where they will be probed to see if they are spies.
Right after that, we came back to California, where we ran into two Liberty Rogues, attacking a trader, as they were bussy, didn't see us coming, and that gave us enought time to attack them by surprise, we managed to destroy one of those barghest, but the other one was lost into the asteroid field.
After that, we got to West Point for some repair jobs, and a well earned time for rest.

You and your jumped up crew are a disgrace to the Liberty Navy. Your own executive officer, drunk at the comms console claiming you were dancing. I can only imagine how embarrassed the entire crew of the Durango feel having to limp back to dock, put there by the louts you assigned to crew that Dreadnought.
I can't believe your man, MacElroy, had the nerve to bring my wardrobe habits into question, even after being told repeatedly to keep his thoughts and his feelings to his god-damned self! It's insulting to be talked down to by an Dublinner who's so pissed he can't even stand upright, let alone from the bridge of one of Liberty's finest dreadnoughts.
I sincerely hope that when Fleet Admiral Hale gets to his chat with you, that he bears the appauling conduct of yourself and your crew in mind when he rips that Admiral pin from your collar.
But if he doesnt, then only one thing will be left unsaid. And since I don't like to keep my thoughts to myself, here it is.

*As the videofeed finishes loading, a tall, muscular man,
- his bare and oiled-up chest partially covered by his impressive red beard -
can be seen sitting in what happens to be the Captain's seat on a Dreadnought's bridge.
It's Commander MacElroy.
And he's wearing a crown.*

*Now he bends down and picks up a box of fine Bretonian cigars, opens it, and lights one with a smile on his face.*
Aaaneywaysh, 'ah wanna say 'ere that y'better whip 'em idjits aboard the 'Rango into shape an' stop givin' 'em private visits on-dutay when y'get into "that certain mood", aye lassie?

'Ah mean, lass, 'ah know y'like 'um, but not everyone needs t'peek at yer loveley behind, aye?

But realley, didye 'ave t'risk all that junk out 'dere so y'coulda' jus' talk to 'er?
Couldn' ye jus' wait like everyun' else woulda been doin', Christay?

*He shrugs for a moment and leans back again, hands behind his head.*
Speakin' o' numbers, 'ah took the libertay t'hand out yours to a few members o' the crew, y'know.
'Ah mean, ever since we been hangin' up 'em posters of ye in that skimpey an' slightley transparent green dress, yanno the 'un, crew morale's been up, an 'ah figured y'might give some of 'um a shot, aye?

-:She coughs lightly, coming onto the screen in her uniform.:-
I do apologize for my previous inactivity, but family matters, unfortunately. Very troublesome. However, I will be returning to active duty. Unfortunately, my first time back on active duty, the Xeno Sunbeam had forced me into an escape pod. I was floating around space for a while before I was finally picked up, which is why this response is delayed.
However, I would uh.. like to welcome back Ms. Willows, seems you're certainly enjoying yourself. -:She coughs lightly again, rolling her eyes a bit.:-
In the aftermath of our very recent encounter with an Order fleet in Alaska, I have according to your requests, moved the LSF Mount Iliamna in the vicinity of the Minor JH to intercept any intruding Order ship. Every ship supporting the organization found entering the system will be interrogated or destroyed depending on the treat level associated with it.
In long term, we may build a static listening outpost in the same region. Although with all the activity in the system, the listening outpost construction may take months.
Important information gathered throughout interrogations will be transmitted to the Liberty Navy admiralty.
For Liberty!

Mister MacElroy;
You're lengthy description of the way I carry myself throughout the ships that I hold a commission on, however detailed, remains categorically untrue in every respect. I find such accusations offensive and slanderous, especially coming from a man who proclaims to be all sorts but is only a commander, a rank that is incidentally below mine.
Let me break it down for you and anybody else who happens to be listening and giggling to their collegues.
I don't get into certain moods. I know exactly what you refer to, as I would assume does everyone else, and I simply don't have them.
While on duty, I dress in the appropriate manner. That is, full military dress, if you were thinking of something else.
The chain? That stays with me at all times as a disciplinary measure.
The only controversial political discussions I've had with anybody have involved my boot, their ass and the door. You can join that ever-growing list if you like, Mac.
Hard day ... i was on Pueblo with my ship resting there ... then a help request group of pirate ships spotted in NY ... i departed and went there ... I didn't even get to NY one pirate ship engaged me ... after i destroyed almost all of his hull he ran away. I restocked and continued in NY ... and there in front of Manhattan ... huge fight ... my HUD was damaged or something it couldn't pick up all hostile ships ... they were almost all neutral to me ... except 2-3 ships ... we lost many ships and they lost more ... in the end ... ship was damaged so much and i had to do emergency landing on Manhattan ... ship was destroyed on way to land but i survived in my pod ... good thing. Never saw so many pirates united in one goal to destroy as many as lawful units as they can. Some of them prepared couple of ships ... right after they got destroyed they would flee away with pod and come with new ship ... I have some records , programmed shot when target is destroyed with my guns. I didn't have time to take picture of anything else.
2 Pirates by the names "Atlantis" and "BG|Starbuck" were detected at Fort Bush today, and I grabbed my Avenger and launched from the San Francisco to assist a trader. After a brief skirmish, both of them ran, and I pursued, until I recieved a second distress call. Seeing that the two Falcata's were leaving, I turned around and responded to the second call.
The second distress call turned out to be bogus, and I returned to the San Francisco slightly tired, and looking forward to my off hours.
Alas, as I changed out of my uniform for my off duty hours, my comms officer gave a strange strangled cry. I ran from mine and Sonya's room, and onto the bridge, where the strangest sight was present.
The [LN]-XXX-Sexytime seemed to be floating in Norfolk drydock.
We immediatly ran a diagnostics of our systems, but the Dreadnought seemed to be broadcasting this strange signal. Upon hails, we were told by a topless man with a red beard wearing a crown that they were "busy".
