Zeta patrol incident
Greetings.
Earlier today, I was on patrol in Omicron Zeta on one of recently instated dedicated system patrol craft; Zeta-2. Whilst on patrol near Planet Saipan, my ships sensors gave the tell tale warning tone of a possible cloak signature. The patrol leader, Zeta-1 confirmed this with his own equipment, so we held our position in orbit of Saipan. As ordered, I sent a request back to Taba to reinforce us with a cloak disruptor equipped ship. Before I received a reply, a very large Nomad vessel uncloaked in front of us. As Zeta squadron vessels are fighters, we were not equipped to handle capital ships, let alone a Dreadnought so we pinged the location back to nearby Cairo station and departed. Fortunately for us, the Nomad ship did not seem to be overly interested in us and did not pursue or fire upon us.
I'm sure that most of us who have patrolled Omicron Zeta before have encountered all sorts of either potential or active threats, but this is the closest that I have seen a Nomad to the Omicron Mu jump hole. I have no doubt that if a lone Nomad did enter Omicron Mu, it's life span would be measured in minutes, but I would still suggest caution to any agents about any longer range patrols they may go on.
