Greetings Ma'am's and Sir's,
Continuing my previous report, [font=Lucida Sans Unicode][LN]-Mason.Ralusch had somehow fixed his problem and then a [LN]-Tia.Whitehall broke my short nap.... Hehe.
Quote:Patrol 2: California
Anyways, Tia and I first patrolled California. I received reports of pirate activity in the area. I ordered Tia to scout LA-Cortez JG, while I took Planet Mojave-Magellan JG. On the way back to LA from Mag JG, I was ambushed by 5 Rogue fighters. Their leader, LR-Sincere.Lair, didn't like the fact that I was shooting his Rogue friends. I called for backup which came in the form of 4 LPI pilots and Tia. Mason came in a little to late as he was coming in from NY. I focused on shooting down the Rogue rookies before dealing with their leader.
The leader apparently had more reinforcements than expected. He managed to call several outcasts but we managed to shoot all down. The Rogue Leader made a mistake to shoot Mason... I left Tia and Mason to shoot him down and Tia managed to blew the leader into space by a skillfully laid mine, which almost caught Mason's ship in the blast radius.
Patrol 3: Toaster in New York
"Toasters" as Jacob and Mason dubbed it, are so-called AI Cruisers flying around New York. This time it wasn't your average AI. The AI was programmed by the Outcasts. What are they up to now.... [LN]-Jacob.Beumont spotted the Toaster flying around Norfolk. He requested bomber support to which I acquiesced. He kept relaying the coordinates of the Toaster. At the scene, I found an Order Gunboat, Cerberus|LT-Michael fighting the AI Cruiser, Core.Deep_Blue. Lieutenant Jacob didn't see it fit to combat the Order Gunboat. The AI Cruiser managed to escape by diving into the sun and possibly circumnavigating it.

After the short skirmish, I was halted by the Order Gunboat. He wished to talk with me about a ceasefire agreement. <.><.>
________________________________________________________________________________
Our forces didn't manage to locate the AI Cruiser. Until Pueblo Station relayed coordinates of an large unknown vessel presumably the AI Cruiser The LSFC|Ohio, Siege Cruiser, was called upon to hunt and disable the enemy cruiser. The Ohio jumped to Colorado, again the vessel was nowhere to be found. Mason and Tia were confronting an XTF pilot near lane FB-Colo JG.
The AI Cruiser finally showed itself, possibly responding to a hail from the XTF pilot. The Ohio managed to get its attention and a furious shootout commenced. Lieutenant Jacob was forced to bring out his Gunboat, the LNS-Forward.Unto.Dawn. Under the combined firepower, we managed to kill the beast. The Ohio took considerable fire during the battle and its engines were badly hit. They had several casualties on board and weren't able to move. I had the LNS-Douglas called upon to possibly tow/repair Ohio's engines and provide medical support for the injured.
We swiftly completed the rescue mission without any complications. A Rogue Gunboat tried to intercept our
ships but it was completely decimated by the Douglas' trained crew. News about the confrontation between the XTF pilot and our own fighters hasn't been heard yet.
Yours truly
For Freedom and Justice,
Sub Lieutenant Remus Sius
