This is the Commander of the Varyag, we docked last night back on Vogtland. It is good to be home. We conducted an extensive recon of the Omega systems to the very edge of our territory. My crew is tired, we have been a near constant state of battle since the day we left. Many Corsair heads were taken.
The bad news:
My XO was killed with all of his crew onboard the Krasnaya. Seems the RM found the true identity of his vessel and left no survivors. He fought well and evidently to the last man. By the time we arrived in the Varyag there was nothing but debris and the shattered remains of the hull of the Cruiser. At the end, my XO scuttled her rather than let the RM take her back. A boarding party was there when the charges ruptured the hull.
Good news:
We took a heavy tole in New Berlin tonight. After a short restock. We first attacked a RNC Cruiser near the Sigma 13 jump and destroyed it without taking any damage. Despite my experience, we traded some of her crew for some prisoners from a nearby military fighter. He shall remain anonymous for his own safety. Soon after we attacked a Battle group near New Berlin killing the independent RM Cruiser Mere Mortal. In addition to this we killed several Bounty Hunter and Kruger Vessels.
It is good to be home in the heart of our homeland. I look forward to flying with you all soon.
