[color=#FFFF00]<span style="font-size:18pt;line-height:100%]Directive 234/816 - Protocols for Guild Core Operations
Confine Erase the Order's presence. Besiege their world. Destroy anything produced by The Order, even if used by those who are not of the Order. Starve them. Burn the Nomad. Torch their cities. Smoke them out. Cleanse. Purge. Kill.
Contain Collect specimens of Nomad lifeforms and technology for research purposes. Interdict and seize Nomad lifeforms and technology found in any ship not affiliated with Zoners; Bounty Hunters Guild; LSF or Liberty Navy. Seize or destroy Order vessels and weapons. Map and compile data on the Omicron systems - bases, defense capabilites. Learn. Know. See.
Control Establish further possible locations for Core bases. Defend Dabadoru Station and supplies to it at all costs. Respect at all the times the neutrality of Zoner vessels and stations and observe No Fire Zone regulations without exception. Zoner bases are not to be used as staging bases for combat operations - do not start any operation there; do not finish any operation there. Do not use the gate to Alaska from New York without clearance from the LSF or Liberty Navy or both. Conquer. Build. Rule.
Monitor any failure to observe these directions. Core justice will be swift for those who squander Guild Core resources or waste Guild lives.
[color=#FFFF00]Special Orders
Clear all non Guild ships from Dabadoru 15k radius. Warn once, then destroy. Warn twice if a Zoner, then destroy. All elements reporting success are cleared for contractual purposes ( a bounty fee of 1 million credits will apply to all actions.) Prevent unauthorised extraction of minerals from Palau, namely Iridium deposits.

Attention: All Guild elements
In order to further its stated goal of establishing a Sirius-wide monopoly in the provision of auxillary security services, the Guild Council is moving to re-establish positive relations with the regime in Kusari.
Despite past misunderstandings, the Guild is determined to remain uninvolved in economic disputes between sovereign Houses. This is Guild policy.
The Guild is therefore pleased to announce the addition to the Guild Council of Guildmaster Drake Sato, who has re-established an active Guild presence on Deshima Station in Shikoku. Guildmaster Sato is au fait with the labyrinthine workings of Kusari and is currently involved in intense negotiations with the Kusari State Police.
He has the full backing of the Guild in this matter.
Any and all Guildsmen found to act in a manner that jeopardises this or other Guild goals will face expulsion or worse.
