Won't anyone be able to take down @Green Knight ? He continues to haunt the European Sector with his lawless ways.
I have already whetted my harpoon, I have preyed to the gods of the winds and storms, I have sacrificed to the unnamed horrors of the profundity of the oceans. I am ready to set my sails for whaling and the green whale is my target.
However, this week I will only find time on EuropeanTuesday and Wednesday evening and next week I am off to France with family. But maybe, @Green Knight will be found by me when I roam the see at those two evenings!
So, as I still have 3 games to lose, who is available/willing to table me after 7 PM BST on any day but Saturday (on which day it is before 7)?

New Bounty!
@Truthiness - Wanted for Smuggling, Weapons Possession, Prostitution, And Murder
Truthiness was last seen attempting to smuggle a secret weapon to an unknown person or persons. It is a matter of most importance to the security of the Galaxy that he not be allowed to make this delivery. Normally merely a separatist sympathizer who turned to doing odd extra legal jobs just to keep flying, it appears that he has picked up some very dangerous cargo that needs returned or destroyed.
"No Disintegrations" - Like a leaf on the wind, Truthiness will try to run your blockade. He will be Second Player with Blockade Run. In addition, no flotilla are allowed on either side's lists.
Intelligence indicates Truthiness's ship, the Serenity , will be attempting a smuggling run alongside some of his fellow "Browncoats" this coming Sunday (29OCT17) starting around 1000 eastern.
Anyone want to play a game tonight? After 6PM EST
I'd be open to being your punching bag @Undeadguy .

I'll avenge Mal and get his ship back, just you wait
In the meantime, the green whale slips again
@Green Knight decimates Thrawn and his crew on the hunt for Motti. With some very bad maneuvering and drunk pilots the 7th fleet Admiral is destroyed...
The legendary Grand Admiral Thrawn ( @Visovics ) pursues the Green Whale, having learned the location of his new, hidden base...
Bringing with him 2 powerful ISDs of the Cymoon and Kuat types, and that dastardly Gladiator named Demolisher, he hopes to finally bring the renegade Admiral to justice.
But alas, he comes in too close to the hidden base, alerting the defenders, much like another Admiral whose name starts with O and ends with zzel.
(basically his 3 drops vs my 5 drops + 2nd player made life very difficult).
Both admirals then proceeded to forget everything they knew about command tokens and timed effects (clearly both were hung over).
When the battle was over Thrawn's fleet was no more - and Motti has to find ANOTHER HIDDEN BASE!!!
(but no
Imperials
RENEGADE ships were harmed - much - during filming)

That's a shame.
That's basically the challenge Nose Punch was built for.
@thecactusman17 is rumored to have intelligence on the Green Whale's whereabouts. Can he be the one to bring him to justice!?

The Green Whale spotted near the Corellian Sector. Can no one stop this marauding beast!?

It sounds like I should sign up just to have a chance on this bounty
Therefore I do.
@GiledPallaeon has the Whale on the run... can he take it down!?
Stay tuned...

CO, HMS Manticore, to All Imperial Units Operating in the Corellian Sector
23 October 2017
WARNING: All Imperial Navy Units Operating in Pursuit of Rogue ADM Motti, in support of Operation GREEN KNIGHT
Exercise EXTREME CAUTION. The target Imperial -II class Star Destroyer, codenamed "Whale", has identified and established a new base. Said base is armed with anti-ship weaponry and dangerous.
ADDITIONALLY, "Whale" has been identified as operating with two smaller Gladiator -1 class units, hereby code-named "Sharks". "Sharks" are known to be armed with assault concussion missiles. All units should make all necessary efforts to avoid contact or destroy these units.
Today, 23/10/17, units of Task Force 34 entered the Corellian Sector in support of Operation GREEN KNIGHT. Imperial -II class Star Destroyer HMS Gryphon was lost with all hands, as well as the Gozanti class support ship HMS Gudrid . Under orders from ADM Pallaeon, Imperial -II Star Destroyer HMS Manticore disengaged from the target and returned to Sidemore Station with Gozanti class units HMS Wayfarer and HMS Parnassus , awaiting additional reinforcements and intelligence information. Initial post-battle debriefings indicate both "Sharks" suffered significant damage, and that poor maneuvering left Gryphon exposed to excessive enemy fire, leading to her destruction.
ADDENDUM , Rebel Alliance units have spotted in the area, possibly attempting to recruit ADM Motti or capture his ships. All combatant commanders are advised to stay alert.

Bounty is being finalized. If it's approved, we will have a very unique and canon engagement.
EDIT: Wrong thread, see Results thread

I will be online in the evening from 4pm UTC on and available for qualification games. And because I merely need three more points I might even try a stupid fleet. So, MAYBE, I will be easy prey!
@BiggsIRL Can I still play qualification games after qualifying without jeopardizing my qualification?
