NARRATIVE Elements of the 27th and 38th Fleets comprising Task Force Condor staged in the Teneebia System and were organized into four flights commanded by Captains Nimitz, Tungsten, Traise, and T’Prit.
At the appointed time, the entire task force set course for NGC-863 and crossed within 1 AU of the 2nd Fleet within the anomaly. TF Condor then proceeded to the Cero System.
Flight Alpha engaged the standing system defense force in orbit of Cero III. Flights Beta and Gamma intercepted arriving reinforcements, and Flight Delta engaged stationary defenses in the asteroid belt and outer planets. All flights achieved mission parameters and sustained losses within acceptable margins.
When combat had ceased the task force engaged in rescue and recovery efforts for both allied and hostile vessels destroyed or disabled.
Command of TF Condor has been turned over to RADM Bishop for the duration of the occupation.
RECOMMENDATION Task Force Condor has established a picket formation and defensive patrol routes around Cero. Planetary occupation and capture or destruction of mining platforms will be accomplished within the week.
OOC Thanks to everyone who attended, and thank you to @Lauren for GMing! This report covers, broadly, what those of you who couldn’t attend were doing off-screen.
Invasion of Cero will continue next weekend. Feel free to move your casual RP to ship lounges and such in orbit. If anybody wants to take the initiative and fight off some low-impact reinforcements during the week, you’re more than welcome to do that.
In the meantime, keep an eye out for news from the rest of Operation Guillotine!
