Briefing Officer: Sub-Commander Aki Kimura, Reigning Commander of the Order/Zoner Joint Destroyer, Pakhet
"Several days ago, an order informant going by the name of Troy Carter - a member of the xeno terrorist organization operating in liberty - witnessed a liberty rogue captain who had become infested by a nomad entity delivering an order supernova prototype weapon into the liberty navy's hands.
We will not stand for rampant individuals breaching our space, stealing our technology, and subsequently handing it over to one of our most formidable enemies. Further, any infestation discovered must be dealt with.
We have reason to believe that despite this suspect's supposed allegiance with the criminal group known as the rogues, he was involved with the navy prior to the event - and that his contacts within Liberty's military forces were also nomad infested personnel.
A strike-recovery operation has been authorized to retrieve the weapon prototype and return it to toledo at all costs. The weapon was delivered to Willard Research Station for processing shortly after being recieved by Liberty forces, and is being held somewhere within that station.
The Pakhet will lead the task force for the recovery of this equipment. Dismissed."

-At approximately 1945 hours on 616-821 the operation began. The task force proceeded from Omicron minor into alaska.
-Resistance met in alaska was formidable, with several Liberty Navy and Bounty Hunter vessels (//NPCs), on top of the standard nomad interference, attacking the task force.
-Upon reaching the jump gate to the New York system, the task force sent a smuggler ahead to scout out the other side of the gate. After recieving an all-clear, the Task force proceeded into New York.
-Using a network of Jump holes, the Task force moved through New york, into Texas, and then into the california system. From there, a rendevous was made and the group proceeded towards the Willard Research Facility.
-Minimal resistance was met at california minor. A liberty cruiser (//NPC) was sighted at maximum scanner range, but the task force remained undetected.
***Striking Willard Research Station***
-Once the station's defensive systems were down, Order escorts engaged the defending ships that had been launched. During this time, the Pakhet initiated scans and docking with Willard Research Station, and sent marines aboard to retrieve the weapon prototype.
-The task force retreated back towards alaska, via the same jump holes used to get to california. Liberty forces had been alerted however, and were in wait.
-A xeno, by the callsign of XA-Copperhead, joined the task force as an informant and decoy during the retreat. This looks to be a good sign of forging an alliance between xenos and the order, as they have proven very valuable allies within liberty - providing us with both assistance and information in return for funding.
-Upon reaching zone-21 in new york, the task force was attacked by a large liberty fleet that had been hastily created in defense. The fleet consisted of several gunboats, fighters, and bombers.
-During the engagement, several order ships - including the task force leader; the Pahket - were crippled near the zone 21 minefield.
-Freelancer Edison Trent, working with the task group in a bomber, retrieved several escape pods as well as the prototype weapon, and fled to omicron minor as the rest of the group held off liberty forces. Black squadron ace Alex Cooper made rendevous with Edison Trent in Alaska. Trent successfully returned the equipment and a large number of order officers to planet Toledo - ***Mission note from Sub-Commander Aki Kimura: Reward Edison Trent with the Order medal of Valor for demonstration of exceptional skill and integrity during live combat operations***
***Mission Debriefing***
Debriefing Officer: Sub-Commander Aki Kimura, Reigning Commander of the Order/Zoner Joint Destroyer, Pakhet
"The mission was a success despite severe losses. A large portion of the former Pakhet's crew were killed upon her destruction at the hands of the Liberty Naval Forces - they will be avenged in due time.
Most of the Commanding crew, including myself and commander Eisen, were recovered by Edison Trent - along with the weapon prototype - and returned to Toledo.
The Pakhet will be rebuilt, Order salvagers and Junker allies are working as we speak to pull the vessel from the Zone 21 minefield, after which it will be hauled back to omicron minor to be fully reconstructed. If, for any reason, the Pakhet is not successfully recovered, the zoners have agreed to provide us with another Fearless class destroyer to continue the joint fleet project.
All individuals participating in this mission performed admirably, and should be proud of their piloting skills in the face of destruction. Dismissed."
***Mission file now open for individual reports***
//feel free to post on the event if you like, it was pretty much a spontaneously organized op by myself and a few other independent order characters, I think it turned out pretty well despite being destroyed... was so close to getting home too =(
