Gentlemen.
Uploading some of the guncam shots I managed to capture during the attempt to disrupt Outcast ship production in Omicron Alpha. Needless to say the attack could have gone better, the Colonials and Council suffered heavy losses. However several Outcast vessels were taken out, hopefully that is justification enough for you. In the future I would recommend more underhanded tactics rather than a direct assault.
The pincer attack failed due to the two fleets meeting up before the combat began, and the Lance's heavy use of repair ships in the battle lead to the loss of several large capital ships allied with us. Other issues we had were lack of proper bomber support and coordination issues after a large ion storm. Once the command lines went out focus fire became impossible.
Ironically the arrival of Wilde forces and BHG ships near the end of the battle provided enough of a chance to escape as the Outcasts turned to fight them. Our forces ended up scattered, but most of our fighters were able to make it out in the ensuing chaos.
