"As far as i know, there has been experiments with an experimental defense grid in New York system. However, this grid appears to have a failure, which led to the destruction of a Liberty Dreadnaught, the "Death Valley" in high orbit over Manhatten.
This picture was taken shortly before the liberty capital ship blew up. It came to this incident cause two Rogue gunboats attacked the ship, which was barely able to defend itself. Many crewmen have probably died in that attack, but as a matter of fact i was able to track the escape capsule of the fleet admiral, which was captured by the liberty rogues though.
with that in mind, i hope that the defense grid experiment will soon lift again - or we might see more attacks like this in the very future. It is obvious that that liberty rogues are not a group of petty criminals anymore, but a major thread towards the safety of Liberty. Once the defense grid experiment ends, the guild will gladly offer their assistance against such criminal elements.
