Aegis has requested materials in the YZ Ceti system to mass-produce a defence for ships entering the Maelstroms.

Professor Alba Tesreau, head of the tri-superpower agency, announced the initiative at a press conference:

"Final tests have been conducted on the Thargoid pulse neutraliser, which offers ships a brief window of insulation from the energy wave encountered inside a Maelstrom."

"Aegis has been assigned a generous budget to purchase large quantities of cobalt, ion distributors and power converters. These will be used to create a manufacturing and distribution base, making the Thargoid pulse neutraliser commercially available on all rescue megaships."

Clement Orbital in the YZ Ceti system will serve as the delivery point for all shipments.

If Tier 1 of the campaign is reached, the Thargoid Pulse Neutraliser will be made available at tech brokers on all rescue megaships.

The top ten contributors will receive a Thargoid Pulse Neutraliser, which will be placed in storage at the Orunmilla megaship in the Didiomanja system.

As an additional incentive, the top 75% of contributors will receive an Aegis paintjob as follows:

- Imperial Clipper Aegis Rampart
- Federal Gunship Aegis Rampart
- Alliance Crusader Aegis Rampart

The campaign begins on the 2nd May 3309 and will run for one week. If the final target is met earlier than planned, the campaign will end immediately.

Factions aligned to the Empire and Federation have declared war in Pichch, which lies in the path of Thargoid expansion.

Relations between the two superpowers have been strained in recent weeks, following the corporate skirmish in Tavgi. This has exacerbated hostilities between two long-standing rivals in the Pichch system, Gauluujja Exchange and the Gliese 44 Citizens' Forum, causing diplomatic negotiations to collapse.

The ruling council of Gauluujja Exchange claimed: "Imperial saboteurs have been undermining our operations for years, and a military solution is now the only option."

The situation has also impacted the ongoing war against the Thargoids, as outlined in a report by freelance correspondent Karleen Troy:

"With Maelstrom Leigong's fleet expansion only a few systems away, Pichch is currently a key distribution point for anti-xeno weaponry and supplies in the region. There is widespread concern that this conflict could disrupt the flow of resources to the front line, hindering defences in multiple systems."

Gauluujja Exchange has requested help from naval auxiliaries, who can register their support for either faction at Tiptree Port.

The two factions have set out week-long operations to take control of the system, which will begin on the 20th April 3309. If either side reaches the final target both campaigns will end immediately.

A brief statement was given to the press from the Gliese 44 Citizens' Forum's leadership following the failed talks: "The typical Federal response to their problems is to blame the Empire, so we are forced to resolve this on the battlefield."

The killing of Caine-Massey's CEO has sparked conflict between the Federal corporation and Imperial rival Torval Mining Ltd.

Acting CEO Philippa Barlow-Lyons provided a statement regarding the hostilities:

"The Federal Intelligence Agency tracked Johann Fleischer's assassin from Mars to the Tavgi system, whereupon he boarded the Orchestral Falcon, one of Torval Mining's megaships. We demanded that he be handed over to stand trial for his crime. They refused to even acknowledge us. Zemina Torval thinks she has taken her revenge and got away with it. She is wrong."

"Caine-Massey has instructed Tavgi Blue Life Inc, our business partner in the system, to board the Orchestral Falcon – by force, if necessary – and apprehend the suspect. We will do whatever it takes to arrest the Imperial Intelligence agent we hold responsible for murdering a captain of Federal industry."

To support their combat operations, Tavgi Blue Life Inc has called upon Federal naval auxiliaries to report to Gordon Enterprise.

The conflict has heightened political tensions between the Empire and the Federation. With the majority of superpower naval forces deployed to the Thargoid front line, system authority vessels around Tavgi have been placed on alert.

President Zachary Hudson was quick to comment that "my administration upholds the right for our factions to seek justice".

As an additional incentive, Caine Massey is offering paintjobs to supporters as follows:

The top 75% of participants will receive a Vibrant Blue paintjob for the Federal Fighter
The top 50% of participants will also receive a Icarus Blue paintjob for the Federal Corvette

The two factions have set out week-long operations to take control of the system, which will begin on the 6th April 3309. If either side reaches the final target both campaigns will end immediately.

The killing of Caine-Massey's CEO has sparked conflict between the Federal corporation and Imperial rival Torval Mining Ltd.

A statement was issued by Senator Zemina Torval:

"Caine-Massey is using its CEO's death to excuse a deliberate strike against my company, damaging our share price and testing the will of our political connections. Torval Mining Ltd will defend its property, as well as the honour of the Empire, against this unjustified assault."

To support their combat operations, Torval Mining Ltd has called upon Imperial naval auxiliaries to report to the Orchestral Falcon.

The conflict has heightened political tensions between the Empire and the Federation. With the majority of superpower naval forces deployed to the Thargoid front line, system authority vessels around Tavgi have been placed on alert.

Senator Denton Patreus stated: "The Empire stands ready to shield its citizens, businesses and territories from attacks by foreign powers, xeno or otherwise."

As an additional incentive, Torval Mining is offering the following paintjobs to supporters:

The top 75% of participants will receive a Tactical Cobalt paintjob for the Imperial Fighter
The top 50% of participants will also receive a Asemic Black & Red paintjob for the Imperial Cutter
