I was conducting flight training with my bomber squadron when we received a distress call from a transport on the Norfolk/Texas Jump Gate lane... they were being pirated by 2 Hessian gunboats!
Without hesitation we diverted from Fort Bush to the Texas Jump Gate, and Commander Sonya Kellis activated HADES at 15:09 ZULU, bringing the San Francisco to the entrance of Zone 21, to prevent any incursions.
When we arrived, we found the Gunboats loaded with anti bomber weaponry, and after we started to suffer serious damage I thought we were done for. Then the San Francisco moved in, and after a brief encounter, both gunboats were destroyed.
Finding Hessians in New York is slightly worrying in my eyes sirs, perhaps we should move a battleship or a Cruiser to the New York JumpGate in Texas to keep an eye on the traffic?
