Bulletin

Azimuth Biotech has requested shipments of rare commodities to Xi Wangda, as luxury supplies for its business convention.

Torben Rademaker, CEO of the anti-xeno corporation, announced the initiative via public channels:

"We expect this prestigious gathering to be attended by many representatives from research groups, manufacturing companies and military forces.

"The cornerstone of this event will be the commercial launch of Azimuth's newly modified ship-mounted weapon: the Auto Loader Gimballed AX Multi-Cannon. Our proprietary redesign will make a significant contribution when engaging Thargoid vessels in combat."

Deputy Prime Minister Angela Corcoran, who coordinates the Alliance's involvement with Aegis, remarked on Azimuth's campaign during an interview for the Old Worlds Gazette:

"Anything that increases survivability against the Thargoids is surely welcome. But it does grind a little when it comes from the same organisation that escalated the war so significantly."

"Furthermore, Mr Rademaker is placing a positive spin on Azimuth's connections with third parties, rather than admit that it is a necessity. Activist groups such as Operation Wych Hunt have diminished the corporation's stellar influence in recent months. Their actions might have forced Azimuth to rely on external support in order to compete with Aegis."

Azimuth Biotech has acknowledged that transporting these valuable items increases the likelihood of being targeted by pirate forces. The corporation will therefore offer a further reward for redeeming bounty vouchers handed into Cartier City starport on wanted ships in the system, in order to maintain local security.

As an additional incentive, Azimuth is offering their newly pre-engineered Gimballed AX Multi-Cannon to participants. The weapon combines Auto Loader functionality with increased Armour Piercing, at the cost of increased Distributor Draw and Thermal Load.

The top 75% will receive 1 pre-engineered Overcharged Gimballed AX Multi-Cannon with Auto Loader (Medium)

The top 50% will receive 2 pre-engineered Overcharged Gimballed AX Multi-Cannons with Auto Loader (Medium)

The top 25% will receive 2 Medium and 1 Large Overcharged Gimballed AX Multi-Cannons with Auto Loader

The campaign begins on 13th July and will run for one week. If the final target is met earlier than planned, the campaign will end immediately.
