Just a report about yesterday's outing.
I was given a task to accompany Mr Brokenclaw on the Thor, a task which went down reasonably well.
Mostly because the fellow had to leave soon after we launched, so...oh well.
The outing began with me moving to colorado, where I secured the gate and waited for some traffic to pop in.
The first costumer was a freelancer eagle, which, upon closer inspection, seemed to be on rather bad standing with the Liberty lawfuls. Call it a haunch.
Anyway, the encounter was rather short, as the fellow ended up wrecking a few patrols and, without either of us saying a word, left for Pueblo.
Now, after that things got a bit more interesting as Mr. Scorpius joined our group and, while they got held up in New York, I got my second contact. Needless to say that the fellow was rather true to his name and, after a bit of talk and discussion about his cargo, he realized that our group was a fine investment.
Another notable encounter was this one fellow here. After confirming his identification, I was tasked by Mr Scorpius to dispose of the individual. The guy retreated swiftly, after he realized that tackling a freighter and a gunboat was not the best of his life choices.
The fourth encounter was a ship that was spotted with the forementioned Samura guy. This time he was hauling some boron. After being asked how much he would like to contribute to the Hackers, he ended up being rather generous. Perhaps he accidentally added an extra zero?
By this time Mr Brokenclaw had left us already and the Thor was being controlled by someone else. Anyway, I was given new waypoints by Mr Scorpius and headed towards the Detroit field, where we found a rather interesting sight. A zoner gunboat with prisoners.
Sadly, as quickly we wanted to reclaim the cargo, we were jumped by a lawful snub squad and had to quickly retreat. Obviously, the zoner ended up choosing me as his target.
At that point I've no idea what happened, because as far as I could tell- both Thor and Mr Scorpius had escaped, while I was left with the task of acting bait. Needless to say, it quickly ended up turning the other way around, when the Navy snubs failed to disrupt me and I flew away.
Annnnd then suddenly. Yeah. No idea what happened there. I am currently waiting for the boat of mine to get patched up.
