7/30/2019 Diplomatic Mission Brings Surprise Victory
2/2
meet gunship Dagger at the planet. Victory had a full complement
of elite and heavily armed
diplomats that planned to land at the planets capital city.
The NSLs reinforcements had arrived and entered the fray by now,
scoring many hits on theDagger but failing to destroy her. She
would shortly take up orbit around New Alsace-Lorraine
and begin to disrupt planetary communications. My allies
continued to disable or destroy NSLships; the first of the NSL
battleships drifted, without bridge control and a failing life
support
system, directly into the path of BC Vengeance. Vengeances
boarding parties, wearing vacc
suits, were soon swarming over the crippled hulk.
The CL Victory took heavy damage on its way to the planet but
took out a gunship in return and
was well on its way to landing troops, I mean diplomats, on the
planet, when the NSL fleetretreated and engaged their FTL drives.
Our colonists could rest a little easier, knowing the
border had been pushed back...at least for a little while.
