Bulletin

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.

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 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."

The Gliese 44 Citizens' Forum has requested help from naval auxiliaries, who can register their support for the 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.
