This is Willard Max, ranking officer of the Psymple.Defect.
I am writing this from a small crew compartment aboard Isis, my ship is currently under reconstruction and
I have been spending much time with the crew of my ship that have been injured in the events of today.
Many have been lost and killed but I am sure my ship will recover from this.
My account of this is a long one, me and my crew were originally with Sun.Core and the Corsair Fleet
outside Yaren engaging the Bounty Hunters and then I was there for the dispute with Forge and the Qetesh.
My crew and I set course for Minor after our stay in Yaren for the night, however upon undocking we
discovered a large fleet of Corsairs in a huge battle against bounty hunters (//There were 29 players in
delta) upon closer inspection we saw the Sun.Core along side the Corsairs attempting to fight off the
Hunters.
My crew and I joined in and aided in the destruction of a Hunter Thresher that was engaging the Sun.Core
and after a few other Hunter gunboats and bombers had been swatted we landed for repairs and refuelling
at Yaren.
My crew and I then headed to FP11 to meet up with my Commanding Officer Marcus Dawn in his Osiris.
This is where we heard horrible news, I heard from my commanding officer that the Hiigara and the Qetesh
had opened fire on the Sun.Core for being in a Fleet with the Corsairs, not just opened fire but we heard
they had allied with Bounty Hunters against another Order vessel!
This sir is un acceptable... its preposterous!
I made it to FP11 to see the aftermath of the fight, there was a huge battle between Bounty Hunters and
Corsairs, my commanding officer had engaged a Corsair battleship to save the Qetesh from being
destroyed and the Hiigara had fled to safety.
Myself and my commanding officer wished to side with the Corsair to help them against the Bounty Hunters
but we were unable to due to us having to talk to Forge of the Hiigara.
Next commander Forge of the Hiigara told us we would be destroyed unless we came back to Minor and
then he engaged us along with the captain of the Qetesh. We did not fire upon the Qetesh but we did force
the Hiigara to flee from us.
Me and my commander did not give chase and we did not attempt to kill him or destroy his vessel but the
Corsairs did give chase. The Corsair battleships were ready to destroy him because he had sided against
them with bounty hunters however I saw able to talk them out of killing him.
I spared his life and made sure that Forge and the Hiigara made it to safety.
This is when me and my commander attempted to recover the situation and make sure that the relations
between the Corsairs and the Order had not been too badly damaged.
However the Bounty Hunters had done great damage to the Corsair fleet and due to the intervening of
Forge now on two occasions they had lost many ships.
This is when we were struck by the Makos and my ship was scuttled, and I had to call a full evacuation.
Thankfully 2nd commander Rivas showed up in the Dead.Sea and was able to save commander Dawn.
This is when Forge attempted to attack the 141 again. Just after the Hunters had hit us with three Makos
Forge told Dawn and Rivas he would attack them again, joining the fight along side Hunters to attack his
own kin.
---
In conclusions sir I see Forge guilty of desertion. He joined the fight, fled and re-armed on three occasions
and his interruptions and continual intervention on the side of the Bounty Hunters caused us to lose an
Order Osiris (Sun.Core), my own Geb and also cost the Corsair fleet we were flying along side to lose
countless battleships.This power mad commander has attempted to kill fellow members of the Order and
has sided with the enemies of the Order to do it. As well as this he has endangered the neutrality between
the Order and the Corsairs by openly provoking them and siding with Hunters to destroy them. I fear if his
actions had gone on without myself and the 141 there to talk the Corsairs down they may well have
declared war against the Order.
As for the commander of the Qetesh, this individual is far too eager to get into a fight, he is young and
inexperienced and attempted to attack both Corsairs and Order without real reason or sense, the young
commander has no sense of how to act as an officer within the Order Secondary fleet and is a danger to our
relations with other factions within Sirus. As well as this on a number of occasions he has attempted to
command forces within the order and on many of these he has lead large forces to their deaths.
This is the report of Willard Max, I hope that this can be dealt with accordingly and I hope that the 141 Task
Force will survive this without a tarnish to our name. We stepped in to stop a War with the Corsairs and I
feel without our involvement today it would have turned out much worse.
It is a shame that what was initially a joint action between the Corsairs and the Order to defend ourselves
against a massive fleet of bounty hunters ended in such a catastrophe that I am having to write this report.
