Galactic News: Halsey Talks to the Media

03 Apr 3302

Former Federal president Jasmina Halsey spoke to select reporters at Leoniceno Orbital today, answering the questions many have wanted to ask since she was recovered from the wreckage of Starship One. When asked about Starship One's destruction, Halsey replied:

"I remember very little, really. A thunderous noise, then silence. Being thrown across the bridge in my chair, and then being unable to breathe. I remember one of my bodyguards getting me to the pod as things floated about silently, like a dream. The last thing I remember is a terrible pain in my ears and a very loud noise as the pod filled with what looked like steam."

The former president's voice was distant, and she seemed to drift off between sentences. She certainly did not sound like the forceful leader from last year.

A reporter from the Alliance Tribune asked President Halsey what it was like to drift through space for so long:

"It was wonderful. Amazing. I saw the universe, and our galaxy within it, as I'd never seen it before, and I felt the presence of the real caretakers of our galaxy. The paradox of their existence – tiny yet gargantuan, fleeting yet eternal. They spoke to me as I drifted in the void. It was amazing. I must share their message."

This unorthodox statement prompted a flurry of further questions, but Halsey's escorts promptly led her from the room.

Galactic News: Weekly Security Report

03 Apr 3302

This report presents the latest data on the security status of the galaxy's minor factions.

Here are the latest factions to experience a lockdown:

Revolutionary UGP 145 Free

Votadini Fortune Holdings

Dukes of Karsu

LHS 2637 Dominion

LTT 17149 Pro-Independent Party

Barnard's Star Advanced Corp.

Nationals of NLTT 897

FF Andromedae Jet Comms Holdings

Siris Exchange

LP 282-7 Gold Federal Corp.

When a faction experiences a lockdown, the security rating of the system it controls temporarily increases and the system's wealth temporarily decreases. Bounty hunting activity can shorten the lockdown period.

Here are the latest factions to experience civil unrest:

HIP 24597 Bridge PLC

Sandagaray United

Laukang Corp.

HIP 10716 Vision PLC

Kuyu Organisation

Maridwyn Constitution Party

Ch'u Ti Co

Nan Sapwe Crew

Nationals of Algreit

Social Miola Coalition

Civil unrest is the result of illegal activity. When a faction is affected by civil unrest, the standard of living in the system it controls temporarily decreases, as does the system's wealth. Combat missions and activities can bring civil unrest to an end.

Galactic News: Weekly Expansion Report

01 Apr 3302

This report presents the latest data on expansion among the galaxy's minor factions.

Here are the latest factions to have expanded into new systems:

Nobles of Kirrae

Sanuma Gold Dynamic Industries

New Khaima Democrats

Irulachan Jet Public Inc

Jaroere Exchange

HR 8380 Silver Central Solutions

Crimson State Industry

Alanaribri Transport Holdings

Nationals of HIP 6108

HIP 101857 Silver Life Int

Expansions occur when a minor faction reaches a sufficient level of influence and there is a populated system within striking distance. Expansion is costly, so when a faction expands, the wealth and development level of the system it controls are temporarily reduced.
