Sharks circle as Fleets regroup.

GP: Like deadly sharks, fighter groups CJ3, SS3, and SS4 (Fleet Brendan) stalked Bogata (Fleet Aron). Then they suddenly turned to strike at Archamedies. The defending fighter group Gamma met SS3 head on and wiped the remaining two fighters out. At the same time, heavy anti-fighter fire from Archamedies wiped CJ3 from the sky and reduced SS4 yet further. The last fighter from SS4 valiantly carved at the armor of Archamedies before opening a full burn away from the deadly ship. Bogata (Fleet Aron) opened up on Side Splitter (Fleet Brendan) from 8 beam batteries, breaking the empty carrier in half. Untidy Intentions (Fleet Random Effect [Noam]) opened with 3 beam batteries on Aegis (Fleet Stray Cat) putting the first hole in Aegis. Missouri (Fleet Stray Cat) tried to return fire for the happless Aegis, but all the ships of Fleet Random Effect were beyond its reach. Reality Graft opens up and applies double the damage that Untidy Intentions inflicted. Archamedies launched 2 MT331 missiles and blasted the remains of Side Splitter. A single beam of light reaches out from BC 531 (Fleet Aron) to burn past armor and strike Claim Jumper (Fleet Brendan). The last straw holding little Aegis together is snapped as fire from the 3 remaining ships of Fleet Random Effect open up on her.

Accounting Error Corrected

An accounting error was discoverd in the Cygnus Fleet Proving Exercise today. Scores for fighters were assessed at 108 points per fighter group instead of the correct 18. The glitch is thought to be an extranious recursion loop that applied the cost of the fighter group every time an individual fighter was lost. The correction has been made and the correct point values have been posted.

Radio Traffic from Fleet Aron

"Damnation Ensign, what in the god's name is wrong with fighter group Alpha!?!" "I'm not entirely sure sir, they seem to be reporting something wrong with their on board AI." "Would you please request they rejoin the Fleet immediately, we're going to need what little fighter cover we have to last the day." Commander Clark sat back and rubbed his eyes, at least the PDS coverage was proving effective.
