I have recently taken over as administrator of Bethlehem station in the Pennsylvania system, and it is in need of reasonable upgrades.
Would it be possible come to an arrangement to infiltrate a team of techs to Bethlehem to upgrade the internal sensors so we can be sure to detect any infected that happen to come aboard?

Battle report: The siege of Cairo
Good day to everyone lucky enough to see it.
This is captain "Pest". I am in command of the vessels OCV-Guard and OCV-Toledo, who were the first line of defense in the battle of Cairo. The battle was hard to say the least. Reports from Zoner humanitarian aid vessels say that the Core has completely abandoned their strongholds in Zeta. It is not unlikely, that this enabled the Nomads to attack our positions with twice the numbers as they had previously planned for their attack on Cairo.
With orders from the Order high command to prioritize the evacuation of human perssonel from Cairo, I laid out a battleplan in which the evacuation efforts would be as secure as possible. But the cost was high. During the first attempt, the OCV-Toledo was guarding the Cairo-defensive perimeter. The high firepower of our large capital ships ensured that the larger Nomad warforms were unable to harm the civilian transports evacuating the Cairo crew. However, with unbelieveable numerical superiourity, the Nomad and Infectee fighters cost us the lives of dozens of our own fighter pilots. Partially, the enemy fighters were even able to attack some of the transports in the evacuation process. Therefore, in the second attempt, the newly commisioned OCV-Guard was ordered by me to bolster the Cairo defense grid and hopefully use its superiour light weaponry to turn the tide in the fighter engagements. This was quite successful, the OCV-Guard was able to take out dozens of small fighter and bombercrafts and provided valueable support against the few heavier warforms the Nomads were able to bring. Within the chaos this intervention provided a valueable opportunity: With the enemy fighters being actively hunted by the Guard, and the heavy Nomad warforms being unable to move fast within the dense rock formations of the Pohnpei Nebula, our transport fleet composed of various Order Frigates, with the much needed support from Phoenix, the New Covenant Church aswell as independent Zoners, were able to to do run after run undisturbed. We quickly finished the evacuation of crew members and other civilians of Cairo. We however, also had Orders to retrieve all the important data that Cairo, as a spy outpost, had gathered. This was successful, but costly. The Edge Nebula could only hold off the enemy capital ships for so long. When finally, a "Bismarck"- class battleship, escorted by a "Valor"- class battleship entered the battle near Cairo, our capital forces could not hold out. Several ships of the Eclipse Vanguard, who fought valiantly, were destroyed. The OCV-Tolde retreated to Taba Starbase, where it faced little to no opposition. The OCV-Guard lured several heavy and light Nomad forces away from Pohnpei, to give time for the final data extraction runs. When it was surrounded by Nomad forces however, it was badly damaged, several of the ships accompanying it were destroyed. The current status of the Guard is unknown, we do however have received weak radio signal even hours after the fighting, so it is unlikely to be destroyed.
In the aftermath of this bloody fight, we must gather all remaining forces and search for those still missing. We will not give up until the Order comes back to its old strength. In the service of mankind.

Assassination attempt report
It is with great shame that this report must be summited. A few weeks ago one of our members of The Overwatch Admiralty was targeted. Colonel Eddy Narson was boarding his personal Anubis when it exploded soon after. Miraculously, the Colonel survived the exposition, however now sits in an intensive care unit. It is unknown if he will ever recover.
Agents salvaging the wreck of the Colonel's heavy fighter discovered remnants of a bomb of unknown make. It is clear to the Overwatch now this was an assassination attempt on Colonel Eddy Narson's life. How such a bomb made its way into the Order is currently unknown but the assassin shall be located along with his/her accomplices. Report any relevant data to the Wedjat as soon as possible

OOC: About a month ago, the player known as @Slimalou decided to leave Discovery due to changes in the game and the direction it was taking. However, he did not want to make a big deal about his departure, so he left quietly, informing only the friends he had made within the community of his decision.
Since Slimalou was active on the forums, replying to messages addressed to the Overwatch, some people have still approached him on Discord regarding RP with the Order Overwatch.
To respect his decision, this post was made to let everyone know that he has left the game. He sends his best wishes to those still playing and hopes that one day he will be able to return. ⧫ Attachments:

Since the beginning of this operation, our localized cells had been considerably augmented by means of spoofed IFF’s. After I am done in Pennsylvania I will take upon working up Rheinland operations. So, now for the actual news…
Do these fools not realize atomics are way more effective in the atmosphere than space? Granted they brought enough to wipe out themselves and the entire liner at point blank. I will give them that.
Before Lexington’s inevitable demise, someone or something ejected part of its stored warheads. Whether it was cargohold finally buckling under intense fire or someone from inside jettisoned it would at this point be unknowable. Recusant has recovered all cargo and exfiltrated safely out of the area, dodging LSF patrols in the process. Only one ship confronted Recusant after refusal of warheads sale for over a million credits: codename “Die.Wilde.Rakete”. ‘Justice’ huh? Lunatic with stupid name to boot. Liberty cell should keep an eye open if he tries anything stupid for we do not take threats lightly. Back to matter at hand: Agents on site are unable to determine yield of devices acquired. Those will be shipped to Omicrons for further study.
Recusant also maintains its cover. Recovered cargo has been transferred to the courier ship on its way to Order space so Recusant may continue its operations inside Liberty space unhindered. Expect warheads within a few days at best. If you ask me, we should detonate it inside Core’s HQ in Holstein or irradiate Nauru’s mines so much that everyone who moves down there drops dead. However, that's just my personal bucket wish list. If you have better ideas, share them. Solandros, we may need more Sirian credits to outfit the regional agents… a gunboat or two that doesn’t immediately alert everyone in light years radius concerning the Order's presence would be nice.
Losses
Lexington - Gateway “Percheon” class. All kidnappers and crew are presumed dead.
LNS Diamondback - Lost with most if not all hands.
Liberty’s Secretary of Commerce Aiden Haynes - onboard Diamondback during combat. Presumed dead.
Analysis
There was nothing more that could have been done. Diamondback’s fate was sealed the moment hijackers decided to go down with the ship. It is impossible to determine if the original crew of Lexington was still alive at this point. They were likely either spaced out of the airlock beforehand or perished at ground zero of explosion. Even if the situation permitted for the immediate arrival of a rescue team - Order or otherwise - they would have undoubtedly been caught in the blast together with both Lexington and Diamondback and subsequently lost.
New Dawn surprisingly did not execute Liberty ship on the spot, prioritizing destruction of Lexington and its nuclear payload. Affiliation of Lexington’s kidnappers unknown. One likely theory involves a radical subgroup of Erie Militants eager to acquire some more devastating hardware. We may never know.

[20.08.2025 19:30:15] Die.Wilde.Rakete: Likely.
[20.08.2025 19:30:16] Recusant: They jettisoned bunch of them just before their destruction. Perhaps they had more onboard.
[20.08.2025 19:30:31] Recusant: Considering the explosion, more than a handful.
[20.08.2025 19:30:33] Mao.Sadao: Or a captain of a Liner had a self-destruct button in his pocket
[20.08.2025 19:30:46] ND)-AMV-Aragon: Siara: I don't like this.
[20.08.2025 19:30:55] ND)-AMV-Aragon: Siara: Something's fishy.

[20.08.2025 19:31:10] ND)-AMV-Internationale: Sv: This did seem to be over too quickly.
[20.08.2025 19:31:12] Die.Wilde.Rakete: Like this was a set-up?
[20.08.2025 19:31:17] ND)-AMV-Aragon: Siara: Maybe.
[20.08.2025 19:31:22] Die.Wilde.Rakete: Yeah. Reeks of it.
[20.08.2025 19:31:28] Recusant: Lost lives are regrettable but at this point nothing that can be done.
[20.08.2025 19:31:29] ND)-AMV-Internationale: Sv: I do not consideer that outside the realm of possibiluty.
[20.08.2025 19:32:11] ND)-AMV-Aragon: Siara: We had no idea about this yacht, and yet somehow a -Gateway- transport managed to get here?
[20.08.2025 19:32:21] ND)-AMV-Aragon: Siara: Apparently hijacked by militants?
[20.08.2025 19:32:22] Recusant: All the way from... *reading neural net* Cortez?
[20.08.2025 19:32:28] Die.Wilde.Rakete: *Patches into their secure channel*
[20.08.2025 19:32:29] ND)-AMV-Aragon: Siara: Yeah, something ain't right about this.
[20.08.2025 19:32:41] Recusant: How can I help you?
[20.08.2025 19:32:51] Die.Wilde.Rakete: So, how about we conduct a business arrangement for them there Devices you scooped up, eh?
[20.08.2025 19:33:06] ND)-AMV-Aragon: Siara: If there really were civilians on board, -and- the Secretary of Commerce, then this woulda been a perfect false flag.
[20.08.2025 19:33:25] Recusant: Why you'd be interested in this weapon of crime?
[20.08.2025 19:33:28] ND)-AMV-Aragon: Siara: A setup to make us look bad.
[20.08.2025 19:33:47] Die.Wilde.Rakete: Not for crime, though. Justice.
[20.08.2025 19:33:57] Recusant: If it was, perfect cover. Both perpetrators and lots of so called "reliable" witnesses dead.
[20.08.2025 19:34:05] ND)-AMV-Aragon: Siara: Mmmhm...
[20.08.2025 19:34:31] ND)-AMV-Aragon: Siara: But that'd mean Liberty was willing to sacrifice their own officials, unless the real secretary's somewhere else.
[20.08.2025 19:34:43] Death: M.Argosy suffered a self-inflicted catastrophic decompression.
[20.08.2025 19:34:44] Recusant: What if I would like to keep them for myself? I got score to settle too, perhaps?
[20.08.2025 19:35:06] Recusant: For the 'greater good'
[20.08.2025 19:35:24] ND)-AMV-Aragon: Siara: -Yeah-. With, what, a few dozen, few hundred civilian lives lost.
[20.08.2025 19:35:42] ND)-AMV-Aragon: Siara: I dunno if they were Liberty or Zoner, but they don't deserve to be used like this either way.
[20.08.2025 19:36:00] Die.Wilde.Rakete: Well. That is reasonable. But you would have their blood on your hands. Not only that, but I can make it worth your while.
[20.08.2025 19:36:01] ND)-AMV-Internationale: Sv: Keeping my eyes on the net for developments.
[20.08.2025 19:36:04] Recusant: Perhaps the secretary was a liability

[20.08.2025 19:36:55] Recusant: Sorry, not enticing enough.
[20.08.2025 19:37:04] Die.Wilde.Rakete: Oh, really?
[20.08.2025 19:37:11] Die.Wilde.Rakete: What's your price, then?
[20.08.2025 19:37:25] Recusant: I am man of too strong moral fibre for common bribery like that.
[20.08.2025 19:37:46] Recusant: Either way... pure speculation for the time being.
[20.08.2025 19:37:47] Die.Wilde.Rakete: Bribery? No, no no. You misunderstand.
[20.08.2025 19:37:53] ND)-AMV-Aragon: Siara: Yeah.

[20.08.2025 19:38:12] Recusant: I suggest we clean up before police or worse, Navy or... worst case scenario: LSF shows up.

[20.08.2025 19:44:21] Recusant: Entire group if you're willing to share.
[20.08.2025 19:44:33] ND)-AMV-Aragon: Siara: My take is that there are cleaner ways to take out an official like that, -without- the collateral damage of innocent -
[20.08.2025 19:44:35] ND)-AMV-Aragon: - people.
[20.08.2025 19:44:55] Recusant: Yeah, collateral. "to whomever it may concern".
[20.08.2025 19:44:58] ND)-AMV-Aragon: Siara: My take's also that it's gonna make a huge mess without doing much that actually helps the cause.
[20.08.2025 19:45:00] *L|SDV-Noctol: W: Evening, Zoners.
[20.08.2025 19:45:17] Centipede: Uh, hello... person.
[20.08.2025 19:45:18] ND)-AMV-Aragon: Siara: Heya, Noctol. Do us a favor, y'didn't see us here.
[20.08.2025 19:45:21] Centipede: Or person...s.
[20.08.2025 19:45:25] Centipede: People, even.
[20.08.2025 19:45:41] *L|SDV-Noctol: W: See who?
[20.08.2025 19:45:45] ND)-AMV-Aragon: Siara: 'zactly.
[20.08.2025 19:45:52] ND)-AMV-Internationale: Sv: That's the spirit.
[20.08.2025 19:46:05] TFP)-Locksmith: "Evening."
[20.08.2025 19:46:17] Recusant: Evening to you too.
[20.08.2025 19:46:21] Centipede: Oh. What the hell? A Defender?
[20.08.2025 19:46:24] *L|SDV-Noctol: W: Hail, Legionnaire.
[20.08.2025 19:46:28] Centipede: Wait, you're not with the--
[20.08.2025 19:46:31] Centipede: Oh.
[20.08.2025 19:46:38] Centipede: Wow. Those guys are still around?
[20.08.2025 19:46:39] Recusant: Day 54, they still do not realize...
[20.08.2025 19:46:41] TFP)-Locksmith: "No, I'm not with the Navy."
[20.08.2025 19:46:51] TFP)-Locksmith: "Still, yes."
[20.08.2025 19:46:57] ND)-AMV-Aragon: Siara: Hey there, Locksmith.
[20.08.2025 19:47:00] Recusant: Ought to be some survivors.
[20.08.2025 19:47:04] ND)-AMV-Aragon: Siara: That's Task Force Prometheus, I think?
[20.08.2025 19:47:11] TFP)-Locksmith: "Indeed."
[20.08.2025 19:47:14] Recusant: Too angry to die, perhaps.
[20.08.2025 19:47:24] Tip: Are you a new player? Discovery Freelancer is not the easiest game to get your head around. If you have any questions of any kind, do not feel discouraged or embarrassed to ask them on our forum or simply approach other players for help.
[20.08.2025 19:47:26] TFP)-Locksmith: "I'm not of the old bunch."
[20.08.2025 19:47:28] Centipede: I may have grossly underestimated the human fighting spirit.
[20.08.2025 19:48:06] TFP)-Locksmith: "Though many of ours do come from the Legion of Old."
[20.08.2025 19:48:15] Centipede: Yeah, but even so.
[20.08.2025 19:48:16] *L|SDV-Noctol: W: Legion's never been one for quitting, as far as our records go.
[20.08.2025 19:48:23] Centipede: Most people would've moved on by now.
[20.08.2025 19:48:31] Recusant: Moved on to what, exactly?
[20.08.2025 19:48:39] Centipede: Knitting.
[20.08.2025 19:48:41] Centipede: Or something.
[20.08.2025 19:48:42] ND)-AMV-Aragon: Siara: Most people have something to move on to.
[20.08.2025 19:48:44] TFP)-Locksmith: "Sometimes there's really no better option but to keep fighting."
[20.08.2025 19:49:18] Rico[404th] was obliterated by Rezal.Brats(100%)
[20.08.2025 19:49:24] ND)-AMV-Aragon: Siara: Yeah. Just like with the Militants.
[20.08.2025 19:49:32] TFP)-Locksmith: "Just so."
[20.08.2025 19:49:42] Centipede: I'm... not convinced.
[20.08.2025 19:49:55] Centipede: But... I'll let you be the judge. I'm in no position to say anything here.
[20.08.2025 19:50:06] ND)-AMV-Aragon: Siara: I think your moral imperative's a little different.
[20.08.2025 19:50:11] ND)-AMV-Aragon: Siara: Which is fine.
[20.08.2025 19:50:27] Centipede: Yeah, until a few days ago.
[20.08.2025 19:50:34] ND)-AMV-Aragon: Siara: And now?
[20.08.2025 19:50:57] Centipede: Now I'll just stick around you people, so that I won't be taken down on charges of treason.
[20.08.2025 19:51:03] ND)-AMV-Aragon: Siara: Heh.
[20.08.2025 19:51:12] ND)-AMV-Aragon: Siara: Y'know you do have the option to go to Gran Canaria.
[20.08.2025 19:51:18] Recusant: Sticking around may be enough to earn you a noose.
[20.08.2025 19:51:19] Centipede: I have no idea where that is.
[20.08.2025 19:51:29] ND)-AMV-Aragon: Siara: Omega-48.
[20.08.2025 19:51:31] Recusant: Frozen wasteland in the Omegas. Long way from here.
[20.08.2025 19:51:32] TFP)-Locksmith: "Nice place."
[20.08.2025 19:51:42] Centipede: So, like, fourty-eight systems away?
[20.08.2025 19:51:56] ND)-AMV-Aragon: Siara: No, more like...I dunno, ten?
[20.08.2025 19:52:01] Recusant: You'd need to leave Liberty, pass though either Rheinland or Bretonia...
[20.08.2025 19:52:05] ND)-AMV-Internationale: Sv: Six jumps or so, I thought. *Checks map*
[20.08.2025 19:52:05] *L|SDV-Noctol: W: A bit of a ways out.
[20.08.2025 19:52:08] ND)-AMV-Aragon: Siara: Less if you take the most direct route.
[20.08.2025 19:52:09] Centipede: What? Ten? That doesn't even make sense. Why's it called "fourty eight"?
[20.08.2025 19:52:21] TFP)-Locksmith: "But even Canaria is not safe from Houses' greedy hands. They'll come for it too, if not stopped."
[20.08.2025 19:52:22] Centipede: Is it, like, the fourty eighth system in the Omegas?
[20.08.2025 19:52:27] Recusant: Enter Omega systems and then better team up with some Zoner convoy or pray someone has jumphole coordinates for sale.
[20.08.2025 19:52:32] Centipede: Yeah.
[20.08.2025 19:52:34] ND)-AMV-Aragon: Siara: 'cuz originally border worlds were named after prime numbers, but then they stopped for some reason, and now we have -
[20.08.2025 19:52:36] Centipede: "Pray."
[20.08.2025 19:52:36] ND)-AMV-Aragon: - forty-eight.
[20.08.2025 19:52:40] MNS-Tavascan perished at LSFS-Skidmore's hands(86%)
[20.08.2025 19:52:41] ND)-AMV-Internationale: Sv: Omega 48 is eight jumps from Pennsylvania.
[20.08.2025 19:52:51] Centipede: Sounds like a lot.
[20.08.2025 19:53:26] Centipede: Argh... [The Zoner's Benzaiten is aimed towards the deep end of the Scranton field.] It's so close, yet so far away.
[20.08.2025 19:53:44] ND)-AMV-Aragon: Siara: Yeah.
[20.08.2025 19:54:01] Recusant: Canaria's been battlefield in itself. So many groups tried to clamor on top of that.
[20.08.2025 19:54:29] *L|SDV-Noctol: W: No place in Sirius seems to be quiet anymore.
[20.08.2025 19:54:30] TFP)-Locksmith: "Hmm. GMG tech is quite an eye candy, I must admit."
[20.08.2025 19:54:35] Centipede: Hands. Off.
[20.08.2025 19:54:40] ND)-AMV-Aragon: Siara: Nowhere really is, no.
[20.08.2025 19:54:53] TFP)-Locksmith: "I've no intention of taking it from you."
[20.08.2025 19:55:30] ND)-AMV-Internationale: Sv: I was not immediately aware of her addition to this channel. Oh. Wonderful!
[20.08.2025 19:55:56] ND)-AMV-Internationale: Sv: Hells if I do not loathe this comms system.
[20.08.2025 19:56:17] Recusant: Maybe I should grab some of that GMG tech myself one day... butter up some official and leave with shiny new fighter
[20.08.2025 19:57:13] TFP)-Locksmith: "I'm sure it'd serve you well. I was considering it as one of the options, but... Got my hands on some Core tech instead."
[20.08.2025 19:57:48] Recusant: Looks like some Liberty tech to me... unless you hold it in a hangar somewhere else.
[20.08.2025 19:57:58] TFP)-Locksmith: "Indeed. It's not finished yet."
[20.08.2025 19:58:45] Recusant: Bought it, or stole it?
[20.08.2025 19:59:00] TFP)-Locksmith: "Heh. They wouldn't sell it to me."
[20.08.2025 19:59:05] Recusant: They must be seething right now.
[20.08.2025 19:59:14] *L|SDV-Noctol: W: One can only hope.
[20.08.2025 19:59:17] TFP)-Locksmith: "If they even know who took it."
[20.08.2025 19:59:24] Recusant: Smooth.
[20.08.2025 19:59:29] Centipede: Wait, it's unfinished? How are you still flying it, then?
[20.08.2025 20:00:08] TFP)-Locksmith: "It has a functioning engine system, but not fit for combat due to me still working on the energy core."
[20.08.2025 20:00:19] TFP)-Locksmith: "Not enough to support weapons as of yet."
[20.08.2025 20:00:28] Recusant: Glorified shuttle for the time being.
[20.08.2025 20:00:33] TFP)-Locksmith: "Pretty much."
[20.08.2025 20:00:45] Recusant: Anyway, time for me to depart. Have a good one and try not to cause too many diplomatic incidents without me, will you?
[20.08.2025 20:00:49] Recusant: Looking forward to reading the news tomorrow.
[20.08.2025 20:00:55] Centipede: You make it sound fun.
[20.08.2025 20:00:59] TFP)-Locksmith: "Safe skies."
[20.08.2025 20:01:24] Recusant: Almost. I dont envy Gateway crew, assuming they're still alive and Liberty civilians to be honest.
[20.08.2025 20:01:31] Recusant: they were still alive*
[20.08.2025 20:02:05] ND)-AMV-Aragon: Siara: I doubt that the crew were still onboard, but if they were, they were prolly being held prisoner.
[20.08.2025 20:02:06] 2025-08-20 20:02:08 SMT Traffic control alert: Recusant has docked
