Buonasera,
whilst visiting our friends in Newcastle on a supply replenishment run I noticed the following.
as you can see my equipment could not determine any IFF broadcast and they were extremely hostile.
In the ensuing attack I managed to defeat the ships and tractored in the the pilots. However, they were in a trance like state and quickly died, cause of death unknown.
Intrigued I patrolled a little and encountered further instances of these hostile ships, this time I switched off the heating coils in the hold. At present I have 20 of these pilots in my hold, they are very cold but apparently still alive.
I am currently docked at Airdrie awaiting instructions.
In the ensuing melee I also managed to acquire an unknown weapon with Medusa being the only identifying markings stamped on the casing.
