Location: Vogtland, Dresden
A short patrol through Dresden today brought me into close contact first with a Hunter named Burt "Buckshot" Lane. He refused to respond to my hails, and as I got close enough to scan his ship I realised he was flying an Orca gunboat. I withdrew from the area, as I was only in my Loki, and there was no backup. He didn't hang around though, retreating to New Berlin shortly after I came across him.
As I extended my patrol towards Bautzen, I came across a Freelancer flying a Bretonian military ship. A scan of the ship showed 5 Hessian brothers in his hold, which I immediately demanded he release. He was wise to do so, and agreed to leave Dresden immediately via the Omega-11 jump hole.
I returned to Vogtland with the pilots, who were reunited with their families.
Upon setting out to continue my patrols, I ran straight into two Orca gunboats circling Vogtland! They immediately attempted to destroy me, but I was able to slip their missile salvos and redock. Two Gunboats in the immediate vicinity! This cannot be tolerated. I include scans of the ships.
Their armour is poor, so should make easy targets for out bombers should they try that trick again. They left the vicinity of Vogtland shortly after my encounter with them, retreating to Omega-15.
