Evening Gents.
I have a minor incident to report about my shift last night.
While patrolling in California yesterday after reports of piracy in the area, I ran upon a certain pilot near California Minor who had shown up on my heads up display as an Outcast-affiliated pirate in a Falcata bomber. Quickly scanning [color=#FF6666]Shikaka, the callsign of the pirate, I discovered that he had a Independent Pirate ID equipped, and before I could even request he cut his engines, he fired shots at me and overloaded my shields.
I quickly equipped fresh Shield Batteries and began engagement of the Outcast. Noticing that he was no match for my superior Liberty weaponry, he made a run through a trade lane to the Magellan Jump Gate. However, at this point another hostile call-sign appeared onto my HUD, but this turned out to be a simple Junker transport, known as Alsatia, who came under immediate attack by the Outcast. Luckily, Alsatia was able to escape as I defended the Junker from the Outcast.
At this point, [Convoy].Android_Data, a member of the Bretonian Armed Forces, began engaging Shikaka as well. Unfortunately, he managed to escape through the Magellan Jump Gate, and we were not able to destroy the Outcast. I welcomed the BAF pilot, after all, my family originates from Bretonia. He told me he was simply transporting Refugees to Planet Pittsburgh, and as such, I thanked him and allowed him to continue.
The following attachments detail the event: Log 1 (First view of Shikaka) Log 2 (Scan of Shikaka, and Alsatia enters the area) Log 3 (The BAF transport after Shikaka's escape)
I also note that this is the first time I am signing off with the Ensign rank.
Damn I feel proud when I put that title in front of my name.
Signed,
Ensign Mark Lin
