Mission Results
Objectives Accomplishment- ensure the safety of technicians who are responsible for inhibitor placement - done by 50%
- deploy DK devices at all jumpgates in Jormdar system - done
- crush any alien resistance in the area - done by 40%
- submit inhibitor test results to Lexx's computer at Mirtrrak Battle Station - done
Mission Summary
Yet again, alien forces were profoundly underestimated. They had intercepted and decrypted our transmissions and came prepared with the plan to split and destroy the Main Squad before it could reach Jormdar system. Nevertheless, their attempt was only partially successful - squad members managed to overcome the confusion and assemble again to continue their way being just slightly delayed. By the time they arrived to Jormdar system, Mepther and Venn gates had already been locked, and it was on the way to Sadurn jumpgate where alien troops launched a fierce attack on human ships.
Four battleships aided by a repair support vessel were able to hold position and gradually turned the tide of battle, but it was not over yet. Facing their defeat, Savage forces tracked down and destroyed the ship of one of our technicians; only by a miracle, the pilot was able to eject a fraction of a second before the explosion. Soon after his health condition allowed him to return to his duties, the fight was over and the squad proceeded to Sadurn gate to complete its mission.
After the main task was fulfilled, only minor encounters with enemy patrols took place, but everyone felt there was a massive pursuit force somewhere behind so the shortest route to Weth was taken. When jumping to Ryssk system, the squad had to take cover from a Warrior fleet, and near Weth jumpgate a number of Dom'Razak ships blocked the way. Thankfully they seemed to have been misinformed about the firepower of human battleships and used inconsequential tactics which brought them to a rapid defeat. The squad arrived in Weth system in triumph, and invaluable data on inhibitor tests were uploaded to IOC™ hardware at Mirtrrak Battle Station for further analysis.
Comments and Conclusions
In spite of numerous complications, all mission objectives were accomplished due to the right actions taken by squad members. We express our gratitude to all supporting clans (SA™, UR™, DP™ and CFPD™) and of course to freelancers who joined the operation - everyone fought bravely and
died laughingcontributed to our collective success. However, IOC™ Reconnaissance has failed to properly estimate the enemy's abilities, therefore more data gathering is required before any subsequent military actions could be planned. Savage and Dom'Nepesh must have something like a command center in Sadurn because this system is literally swarming with their ships, so it will most likely be chosen as a target for covert scout operations in the nearest future.Please stay in touch for further notifications.

Saturday May 3rd
8 p.m. GMT (click here to check your time)Repair Buoy Maintenance Expedition
and Mothership Hunt™Introductory Note
In recognition of IOC ships' unparalleled freight capabilities under adverse conditions, the task of repair buoy refuelling in one of Inner Core systems has been committed to the Consortium this time. A special cargo of high value and top confidentiality was provided by technicians from the Secret GMG Research Facility; this cargo has to be delivered to each of seven repair buoys in the target system codename 56-65-6E-6E, also known as Venn.
Mission Objectives
- visit all repair buoys in Venn system and ensure their working condition
- keep buoy locations in secret: alien forces must be terminated on sight, letting no ship escape
- reach Weth system to complete the mission
Mission Scenario
- Assemble and set out from the Hypergate in Omega-3.
- Perform repair buoy service following the recommended route (a map received from GMG is attached below).
- Break away from alien pursuers and take cover at Mirtrrak Defense Station.

If on 3 or 4. Otherwise won't work Fingers crossed, sounds fun.

very nice, very nice, it's time again
i will provide 25 mill too for someone coming with repair-ship. but for each of our BS-s that will be killed by Dooms, i will withdraw 5 mill and donate it to the most unexperienced participant
btw. the |DP|bsenne is already in Jormdar and noticed hectic dispositions of giant Dooms-fleets into direction of the Venn-gate. it seems they have already again cracked our encrypted channels.

Nice mission! ... hope will be able come
For BSs I strongly suggest use some with shield resistant to CDs (all is going much smoother)

IOC™ Headquarters
IOC Intelligence Agency™ has reports from Rheinland, that GMG do not have adequate information about the contruction of deployed Repair Buoy's.
GMG still claims that their information 100% correct.
Our information sources in Rheinland are rarely wrong, about this type of information.So a "Test Mission" will be done thursday at 20:00 ST
