They Came From the Clouds Colorado System
The beginning of the Colorado Incident event chain
Overview
¤¤¤¤¤Pueblo Station has lost contact with two of its patrols as they passed by the Copperton Asteroid Field, now the stations long range scanners are sporadically picking up a significant amount of unknown contacts approaching which seem to disappear shortly after showing up on the scanners. Having recognized the incoming contacts as a potentially significant threat, Pueblo Station has broadcasted an emergency distress call throughout the system. With the Liberty Navy leveraging its full force against the Insurgency in the Vespucci system, the only aid available is that of what little Navy presence remains in the system as well as whatever brave pilots might be passing by.
¤¤¤¤¤With the main production facility of Sirian trade lane and jump gate parts under assault, Ageira's personnel scramble to defend their station and livelihoods while waiting on reinforcements to arrive. Any significant damage could result in impactful production and shipping delays of essential maintenance parts, posing a logistical risk for all of Sirius. Only time will tell how Pueblo's defenses will hold up and what, if any, reinforcements will come to their aid.
Event Duration:
at 19:00 to 21:00 time on 17/06/2023 - No Respawn Cooldown Timer for deaths occuring in COLORADO SYSTEM ONLY for the duration of the event.
NOTES
This event is one of three official faction events that, together, form a player made mini story arch. These events are open for all to join and will hopefully spur more creative rp.
Nomad indies and Wilde will have ZOI in the Kepler, Galileo and Colorado systems during these three events. Please keep in mind this is a temporary allowance for the duration of each separate event.
Epilogue
¤¤¤¤¤ The Nomad assault on Pueblo Station was met with more resistance than initially expected as both Liberty defense forces and the Order worked together to beat back the alien threat. Unwilling to give up the chance of crippling the trade lane network of Sirius the Nomads doubled down on their assault, swarming the station with unexpected numbers. While the invading force was eventually fully repelled, it had not come without cost; many lives were lost and the station had suffered damage throughout several decks.
With the station safe for now, the Order broke formation and flew into the Copperton Asteroid Field, intent on finding the launch point of the Nomad assault. The crew of Pueblo Station quickly got to work to get a proper idea of the extent of damage the base had sustained, as well as what affects it would have on production. Keen on containing news on this outbreak, the Liberty Navy blockaded both tradelanes towards the station, citing security concerns due to an increase in unlawful activity in the region.
