Operation Sleepless

Last night was time for our first raid against the Sleepers ancient ruins in Zaniverse. We were 3 pilots total involved in this operation, and hope that more of us will be awailable from other duties during this weekend. Blue Yarrick, Lance Ducatillon and me formed the attack force and my two androids formed the salvaging squadron. We had a tactical meeting before this whole event, discussing different attack aproaches or should we just scout them out and see if it's worth while attacking at all? Well we finally got plans in order and headed out towards the first called "combat" site that was probed out earlier before planning.

We attacked with full force and at first it was going well untill Blue Yarrick was suddenly attacked by reinforcements and had to pull out! Things started to get rough, but me and Lance managed to turn the tide a little bit when we finally struck a critical blows to the defence towers. These down and the return of Yarrick, now with recharged shields, started really turn the battle to our favour. (You can see in the picture from my external hull mounted camera how Lance strikes down one of the defence towers.) Despite further reinforcements arriving from an unknown source, we manage to win this battle without any losses. With good teamwork and good tactics, we won this small skrimish and there was plenty of work for the salvage squad, who were still waiting for the green light at our station. So we re-arm our ships, make a quick check and everyone gives the thumbs up for our next combat site. We head in and once again and emerge victorious, a bith tougher, but no casualties, so all's well. We keep doing a few more operations and then then it's a few drinks at the bar in the station, untill we all head to our quarters for some good earned rest! But the fight is not over yet, there's more to do and it's going to be a long weekend, more combatsites to raid.
