Afternoon Report for 11/13/3302
14 Nov 2016Rowen_Stipe
Published morning report while en-route to a star port, flew right past it while checking over some things then nearly flew past it again while writing it down... Note to self: Write and publish when docked. Used planet to emergency stop and write this.Docked at port and retrieved goods finally. Also filled rest of cargo with coffee (61 units).
Jumped into Furbaide and get a message some cargo needs to go else where than the system. Had other missions in the area, near one star port to drop off cargo and get notice cargo for another port needs to be expedited. They gave me some time with this one at least.
Finished up my rounds of Furbaide and headed out.
Did my deliveries, had a few minor interdiction attempts by pirates but nothing major to report on. Headed back to Furbaide.
Side Note: I've been using the Mule for a while now since upgrading it's FSD jump. Still prefer Meadow for fast transport. Also should stop writing while flying, just missed my next stop...
While finishing up round I get a notice that someone is after a shipment of non-leathal weapons in my cargo hold, a minute later the reported person attempts interdiction. Mule not being equipped for offensive means taking them out will require some tactics... Or law enforcement.
Picked up a shipment of silver, get a notice moments later someone already knows and wants it... Criminals are well connected these days.
Jumped to different system en-route to delivery system and get message from Random-Criminal C, then get interdicted by Rory whom is after the non-leath weapon shipment. Manage to get out of Rory's interdiction and land in RC C's interdiction and manage to evade it.
Jump to next system and end up with man after silver shipment attempting interdiction. Opted to throw self at planet near delivery destination and cruise along surface for a while. Should probably be watching where I'm flying as I near the delivery point. Not rid of Silver or Non-Lethal Weapons yet.
While jumping to another system I forgot the old attage; "Don't text and fly". Almost hit the system star on entry.
On my way to a Hostile system... Oh joy. Destination in hostile system: 20,000Ls fan kriffing-tabulous. Totally gonna get interdicted along the way. Spotted Sheehan the one after my silver, good sign... Sheehan caught up to me and I decide to submit to interdiction and test out the Mule in combat, using the standard hard-points she cane with I was able to fend off Sheehan long enough for system security forces to show up and offer assistance in taking them down. After jumping to return course for delivery point Rory soon interdicts; upon realization Rory had no shields I summited interdiction and fended off long enough for system security to arrive once more. Ships hull at time of docking 68%; not bad Mule, not bad. Data delivery complete.
Finally dropped off the non-lethals and then the silver. Calling it for the day
