Report Begins:
Earlier this evening, I received a signal from the Liberty Navy requesting reinforcements in the Magellan System following the detection of a sizable Gallic fleet in the area. Within 5 minutes I arrived in the system and discovered the Navy already engaging said Gallic fleet. Moving in I began by offering repeated mortar fire against a Gallic Valor class battleship, shortly after an Obstinate class Battle cruiser uncloaked and began harassing me, forcing me away from the primary battle. Distracted by the Obstinate I was not aware of the Valor sneaking up my backside. By the time I realized it was too late, the Valor laid salvo upon salvo into my hull ripping my cruiser apart, at which time I was forced to flee once again, to limp home and seek repairs at Sabah. It was only after I had to leave that I learned that another Crayter vessel, The Minotaur, arrived to assist the Liberty forces, I do hope to see that report to find out if we managed to push the Galls back. Also, I should note of a Freelancer that sided with the Gallic forces after the Navy refused to pay a mercenary, if memory serves it was Shadows.Guardian in a Border Worlds Montante class gunship.
Combined Battle Group:
=CR=Rogue - Cmdr Marquiss vessel
=CR=FV-Minotaur - Adm Henn's ship An estimated seven (7) Liberty Navy vessels, I witnessed at least two (2) Bombers, one (1) Cruiser and one (1) Battle cruiser. Known vessel names are as follows:
[LN]-LNS-Integrity
[LN]-Silver|ESRD
[LN]-Daniel.Redding
[LN]-ESRD|Seagull
[LN]-LNS-Ignition
Cmdr's Notes:
Considering I have been on an extended, and unwelcome, hiatus for a little over six months, it is good to see that society has not given up the fight against these ruthless invaders. Gallia may have pushed into Magellan while I was away but the fight is still very much alive, it inspires me to continue trying to be the best Commander I can, though I still have so much to learn. Another thing that is most unwelcome is being beaten down in every fight I end up in, constantly having to limp home in a broken cruiser.. One day I will not have a need to retreat and I will be the one sending the Galls home in a broken ship and with a little bit of luck their spirits as well. Until then..
