Hidden deep inside an asteroid field, Dabadoru was built in 816 AS by the Core, an elite military force. It served as major staging point for combat operations against The Order and Corsairs and subsequently Core's expansion into Omicron space. Seizing opportunity from the weakened line of defense that the Core provided as their fleets focused on the attack on Yaren, the Order forces succesfully laid siege to Dabadoru station in 822 AS in order to undermine the Core's rising influence in Delta and captured it.

| [834 AS] New Zeta offensive contemplated |
|
CAPETOWN -- 834 -- Scouts in Omicron Zeta report Order forces leaving for Omicron Theta and the Omegas. Capetown’s risk assessors suggest this may be an opportune moment to invest more heavily in offensive actions across the Zeta theater, expecting this to yield dividends over the next three quarters. There are certainly benefits to taking decisive steps to limit The Order’s ability to interfere with our market activities. Returns are also expected from field demonstrating new innovations gleaned from the Gammu project site -- these new technologies will be of far greater interest to potential clients if we can provide proven battle data to substantiate the marketing. |
| [834 AS] Corsairs and Zoners reach accord |
|
CORFU -- 834 -- Following difficult negotiations, Corsair and Zoner delegates have reached an agreement over the status of Freeport 9. Since the withdrawal of the main Outcast fleet, Corsairs, Zoner militias and The Core have extracted a steady grind of attritional losses on each other. The Corsairs had initially demanded total surrender, however mounting losses and a spike in Nomad attacks appears to have changed their mind. The Corsairs have agreed to release all hostages, and establish a joint administration of the Freeport to immediately end the fighting. While the Corsairs will not permit their enemies to land, the Zoners now have far more autonomy to carry on with their lives. Neither side is happy with the deal, but it seems to be preferred to continued bloodshed. |
| [834 AS] Nomad threat in Omicron Theta escalates |
|
DABADORU -- 834 -- For many years, the Nomad presence in Omicron Theta has been limited. Our agents have now observed a spike in aggression across the system, with coordinated offensives by the Nomads and their Wild thralls. While it is possible they are simply exploiting the chaos caused by the Corsairs’ occupation of Freeport 9, the timing cannot be a coincidence. It is surely linked to the devolving situation in Omega-58. We have deployed the Cruisers Mafdet and Khonshu to investigate immediately, as it is vital that we establish the alien motive for their renewed focus. Decisive action must be taken to curtail this threat before it can fester; preparations are being made to transfer more forces to the region. |
| [834 AS] Wild on the move in Galileo |
|
BATTLESHIP ATUM -- 834 -- The Atum has been countering the activities of the Battlecruiser Wyoming for some time, having cornered it somewhere in Galileo. The battlecruiser itself has evaded detection, while its squadrons attempt to enflame tensions between Liberty and Kusari. That changed recently, when the Atum’s sensors detected the vessel moving at high speed through open space towards the Reppu Cloud, indicating its cloak is likely damaged. Following a fierce clash near the Colorado Jump Hole, Order scouts were driven off and the battlecruiser was lost once more. The Atum is now in pursuit, although the Nomads’ motives for re-entering notoriously hostile Liberty territory is presently unknown. |
| [834 AS] Xeno Relics proliferation an extreme threat |
|
PLANET KNOSSOS -- 834 -- The recent explosion on Planet Hamburg demonstrates exactly how dangerous Xeno Relics are, especially in the hands of those motivated by greed for profit or power. The supply of these live Artifacts stems from the looting of the Knossos ruins in Omicron Pi, primarily by the Corsairs and Core. Interdiction patrols have been forced to open fire on several Corsair freighters that refused to comply with confiscation orders. Diplomatic attempts to dissuade further Corsair looting has been futile, as Crete’s Elders are set on selling these Relics for exorbitant sums to offset the enormous costs of the conflict in Omicron Theta. It is imperative this trade is stopped before the Houses are dragged into a deadly arms race with unknowable consequences. |
| [834 AS] Imperial Shipping culpable for Hamburg Blast |
|
TENNSTEDT BASE -- 834 -- Bundschuh agents have obtained caches of academic correspondence, research notes and cargo invoices dating back to at least 824 AS. Imperial Shipping funded Scientists to carry out illegal research into Artifacts and Xeno Relics, in a foolish attempt to reverse-engineer technologies that could upend the balance of power in Sirius. This blind pursuit of profit has backfired with fatal consequences for the people of Hamburg. What remains unclear is how the Blast is linked to the simultaneous explosion of the Battleship Kolleda, and the weapon the MND had been meddling with. We will continue to investigate alongside our partners in The Order. |
| [833 AS] Omicrons at the Crossroads |
|
AKABAT -- 833 AS -- Nearly a year has passed since the Core, the Order's most formidable ideological adversary, successfully seized control of the invaluable planet Gamma. This audacious conquest placed an array of advanced technology firmly within Core hands. What intensifies the concern is the Core's remarkable feat—a takeover bereft of significant losses. This achievement not only consolidates their grip on this vital resource but also casts a long shadow over any prospective Core resurgence into the Delta system. This looming prospect compounds the challenges faced by the Corsairs, who currently grapple with the tenacious Outcasts in Omicron Theta. Moreover, our potential support for the Corsairs' endeavors in Omicron Theta confronts hurdles of its own. The loss of Lisbon Station in Omicron Beta has rendered our northern border increasingly vulnerable to Outcast intrusions, compared to more secure times. Adding complexity to the equation, the Corsairs' acquisition of Freeport 9, a move perceived by some as indiscriminate, has strained cooperation prospects with certain Order agents and supporters. While the Order maintains no formal allegiance to the Zoners stationed on Freeport 9, these developments have been troubling for those of Zoner origins among our ranks. As traditional alliances within the Omicrons continue to wane, our age-old nemesis, the Core, shows unmistakable signs of strategic preparations. Though the accuracy of these forewarnings remains uncertain, the Order stands resolute, ready to confront any eventuality that may materialize in the imminent future. |
| [832 AS] War Returns to Omicron Theta! |
|
FREEPORT 9 -- 832 AS -- Omicron Theta was the site of clashes between the Outcasts and Corsairs for many years, with the Zoners of Freeport 9 surviving in the middle of this uneasy equilibrium. Everything would change late last year when the Outcasts withdrew from the system, and the Corsairs boarded and occupied Freeport 9. Now, the Outcasts have returned in force and the fighting is fiercer than ever as they look to win back lost ground; early clashes saw the loss of the Corsair Battleship Fes and Outcast Destroyer Bella. The Outcasts have been open about their intent to destroy Freeport 9 so long as it remains in Corsair hands, to the dismay of the expelled Zoners who hope to regain the station through diplomatic means. The Core have also been spotted operating in the system, intervening to precisely strike valuable targets and seemingly prevent either side from gaining a decisive edge. Extreme caution is recommended when travelling through the region. |
| [831 AS] Suspicious Activity in Tau-61 |
|
AKABAT -- 831 AS -- The vigilant crew of the battleship Amenta embarked on an investigation prompted by unsettling rumors of Nomadic incursions resulting in the destruction of the Issoudun shipyard within the Orkney system. Their inquiry led to the detection of an enigmatic gravitational anomaly pointing the way to a remote and hitherto uncharted system, tentatively designated as Tau-61. Initial attempts to explore this mysterious realm via long-range sensors faced a formidable hurdle—intense electromagnetic interference emanating from a local gas giant. Consequently, Order agents were compelled to resort to conventional reconnaissance methods, deploying Onuris-class reconnaissance fighters equipped with interference-resistant short-range sensors. While conclusive evidence of Nomadic presence within the Tau-61 system remains elusive, the series of vanished patrols and perplexing sensor anomalies persist, necessitating sustained commitment on the part of the battleship Amenta and its diligent crew. |
| [831 AS] Corsairs Pillage Freeport 9! |
|
CORFU -- 831 AS -- The Corsair occupation of Freeport 9 has sent shockwaves through the Zoner community. The Corsairs had accused the station of allowing their enemies to launch raids into Omicron Gamma, with violent rhetoric escalating after the death of an Elder's son. As Crete demanded the Zoners of Theta turn over any Hunters aboard their stations and surrender docking control, the Freeport 9 administrators were confident that some kind of compromise could be found. A delegation from Gran Canaria was requested to assist with negotiations, due to the close ties between Zoner and Corsair communities on the planet. Tragically, the Corsairs interpreted this delay as refusal, and launched a surprise attack while the delegation was en-route. Many of Freeport 9's crew are now being held as hostages while the Corsairs pillage the station. An urgent conclave has been called on Gran Canaria to discuss the Zoner response, while militias on Pygar have taken up arms in case the violence spreads. |
| [831 AS/747 AGS] Gate Corps Clash Over 'Blackout'! |
|
ABBEVILLE -- 831 AS/747 AGS -- EFL's 'Resilience Taskforce' today reported its findings on The Blackout, claiming to have gathered forensic evidence that proved the cause as Ageira negligence. A spokesperson claimed that the destruction of the Dublin jump gate by Molly separatists had created a hyperspace feedback loop that was propagated and amplified through the Ageira gate network. Ageira disputed this finding in their own press release, calling EFL 'fantasists' and countering that their own scientists had narrowed the cause to a rare 'hypernova' stellar event that originated outside the Sirius sector. Both corporations claim that network-wide hardware safeguards have been implemented that would prevent a similar occurrence in the future. Independent researchers have sharply criticized the corporate announcements, accusing both of self-interested misdirection. Professor Sophia Nagel from Heisenberg Research Station called EFL's accusation 'incoherent' and the hypernova explanation 'nonsense' that did not explain the characteristics of the 'Blackout Pulse'. Despite multiple different Pulse recordings being widely disseminated across the neural net, public efforts have so far failed to triangulate its source. |
| [831 AS] Jump Hole Upheaval Causes Chaos |
|
HEISENBERG -- 831 AS -- Jump holes across Sirius have become increasingly volatile and chaotic over the last year, with Professor Sophia Nagel from the Heisenberg Research Station linking the unusual phenomena to the Pulse. The Pulse was an unprecedented blast of hyperspace energy that was detected immediately prior to last year's jump gate Blackout. Professor Nagel and her team are certain the Pulse originated from outside Sirius, but are otherwise no closer to identifying its source or mitigating a future Blackout event. "Following the Blackout, we began to see immediate signs of jump hole destabilization in multiple different regions, with many ultimately falling out of phase alignment altogether", she commented. The dramatic upending of Sirius' jump hole network has already prompted many groups to abandon stations and withdraw from systems that appear to risk being cut off. While months-long trips between the stars are possible thanks to the Liberty Engine and many centuries of innovation, few ships are designed or provisioned to make such arduous journeys. Those who were displaced by Sirius' redrawn map hope that system connections will return, while adventurers and explorers rush to discover new routes. |
| [831 AS] Corsair Elder's Son Killed by BHG! |
|
FREEPORT 9 -- 831 AS -- The presence of Bounty Hunters so close to the Corsair home world has long been a source of anger for the Edge World pirates. Zoner Freeports offer a safe harbor and open market to all comers - including the BHG. For decades the Zoners of Freeport 9 have kept themselves safe from Corsair reprisals by offering useful services, with their biodomes providing Crete with respite from the famines that once ravished it. Despite this, outrage has swept Omicron Gamma after a flight of Hunters killed Commander Juan Garcia, before retreating back to the No Fire Zones of Omicron Theta. The Council of Elders have ordered the administrator of Freeport 9 to attend Planet Crete to hear their demands. Elder Garcia has vowed that the station's halls would "run red with blood" unless the Zoners turned over all BHG aboard the Freeport. The Zoners are yet to respond, likely trying to anticipate how the Corsairs will react. |
| [831 AS/747 AGS] 'Blackout' Causes Jump Network Fail |
|
MANHATTAN -- 831 AS/747 AGS -- Two days ago Jump Gates failed simultaneously across Sirius, freezing commerce and neural net access across the sector. When the network resumed 31 hours later, restored communications broke the news of Bretonia's loss of the Dublin system. This twin shock has plunged the market into chaos, prompting fears of sector-wide economic recessions. Interspace estimates indicate that the stoppage alone caused billions of credits in losses. Gallia immediately accused Liberty of culpability for the outage, claiming the destruction of Dublin's jump gate instigated a cascading failure in faulty Ageira infrastructure. Ageira has sharply refuted the allegation, claiming such a systemic effect would be physically impossible. Independent researchers in Cologne and the Edge Worlds have also announced that a hyperspace pulse of unprecedented strength was detected moments before The Blackout, with data about 'The Pulse' being widely shared across the neural net in recent days. House authorities have remained tight lipped, refusing to comment on their own observatories' data. |
| [830 AS] Tempers Flare over Pygar Colony! |
|
PYGAR -- 830 AS -- The Zoners have seen many trials over recent years, with the Bretonian invasion of Gran Canaria being one among many. It was this occupation that forced many settlers off-world, with some braving the deadly storms of Pygar to eke out a difficult existence under the barren planet's surface. The arrival of Zoner colonists in Omicron Theta has not been met with warmth by all, however. The Corsairs see the Pygar colony as a direct competitor for the region's scarce resources, with Elder Garcia warning that there would be "dire consequences" should Freeport 9's biodomes reduce or divert their exports to Planet Crete. Whispers of alien ruins and Artifacts discovered below Pygar's surface may also antagonize the Corsairs, who rely on the Artifact trade as a source of wealth. The hardship of Pygar's extreme conditions and the uneasy relationship with the Corsairs has already led many colonists to consider a return to the now liberated Gran Canaria. |
| [830 AS] Battleship Horus Requires Further Testing |
|
AKABAT -- 831 AS -- In a noteworthy engagement, the experimental battleship Horus, commanded by Admiral Aulikki Karkkainen and operating under the vigilant oversight of the battleship Thebes, successfully obliterated a Nomadic Leviathan within the Omicron Minor system. The Horus showcased its cutting-edge weaponry, delivering a staggering blow to the Nomad threat, surpassing even the loftiest expectations set by Order scientists. However, this triumph was not without its share of setbacks. During the battle, critical issues surfaced concerning the Horus's system reliability. These problems reached their zenith when the Horus's primary weapons systems inadvertently disabled its primary drive during a combat engagement with a formidable Core patrol in the Omicron Minor system. In a daring rescue mission, the battleship Thebes swooped in to save the imperiled Horus. While the primary power supply was eventually restored, the Horus was recalled to the shipyard for a comprehensive examination and necessary repairs. In light of these reliability concerns, the decision has been made to withhold the deployment of this advanced, yet temperamental technology for the time being. |
| [806 AS] MND director dismissed |
|
NEW BERLIN -- 806 -- Anonymous government sources allege Director Von Claussen of the MND has been dismissed over an unspecified "fatal conflict of interest". The decorated war hero was appointed as the fledgling agency's first leader and given a mandate to purge Rheinland of the traitors who facilitated the Colony Wars. It is believed that this work led to a severe breakdown in relations with the Rheinland Military, who bore the brunt of the resulting purges. The Rheinland government have refused to comment on the situation; Director Von Claussen himself was unavailable for comment. |
| [806 AS] Rheinland cooperation collapses |
|
WEIMAR -- 806 -- Despite extreme casualties, the Rheinlanders were successful in clearing Weimar’s tunnels of Nomad forces -- revealing the ancient Daam-K'Vosh ruins they had been guarding. MND informants reported that the site housed a live Artifact of immense potential power. Such a device could not be allowed to remain in Rheinland while the threat of Infiltrators persists. Allowing such an item to be weaponized by the Houses would be nearly as disastrous. Regrettably, we were forced to take direct action to address the matter, and rapprochement with the MND now seems unlikely. The Osiris will return the Artifact to the protective vaults on Toledo. |
| [808 AS] Successful strike eliminates Nomad parasite |
|
BRUSCHAL -- 808 -- Our friends in The Order again provided intelligence about a Nomad Infiltrator -- this time Republican Shipping CEO Klaus Schulze. The MND had uncharacteristically taken Schulze alive after raiding his Planet Nuremberg bunker -- something the Nomads would not allow unless it furthered their plans. Our own sources provided the dates and times for the convoy that would ship Schulze to a government facility in Thuringia. Following a surgical strike by Bundschuh squadrons, the Armored Transport and its escorts were destroyed. We have protected the MND from their own worst impulses - the Nomads are an influence they do not understand and cannot be trusted to contain. Leaving Schulze in their custody could only have ended in disaster. |
| [803 AS] Bundschuh strike the Nomad menace |
|
BADEN BADEN -- 803 -- Our forces today struck another blow against the Nomad threat in Rheinland. We had long suspected that their puppets were not limited to senior government and military officials, but extended to corporate facilitators too. Exhaustive investigations traced CEO Wolfgang Daumann to an isolated compound on Baden Baden. Our strike team successfully infiltrated the facility, confirming Daumann's infection. Shortly before the team was wiped out, Commander Dietrich detonated a bomb, destroying all present. These heroes of Rheinland will be forever remembered for their sacrifice. |
| [803 AS] Purge of Thuringia captures Weimar orbit |
|
WEIMAR -- 803 -- MND and Order agents have defeated the Nomads in Weimar orbit. The Battleship Osiris is securing the area, as the bulk of the missing Rheinland Northern Fleet remains unaccounted for; no sightings of the battleships that withdrew from Honshu have been reported. Hostiles still hold positions on Weimar in old Imperial bunkers, with breaching actions revealing extensive traps and ambush points. Already we have discovered significant new excavations that are not recorded in Rheinland archives. It’s unclear what the Nomads are trying to uncover. Infected forces continue to launch raids from the nebula, and seem intent on regaining the planet. |
| [802 AS] Rheinland Chancellor an ally against the Nomads |
|
OSIRIS -- 802 -- Agents have made contact with the newly elected Rheinland government, and appraised them of the Nomad threat. The new Chancellor has agreed that publicizing the matter would cause uncontrollable panic, and promised to covertly pledge significant resources to rooting out any remaining infiltrators. Bundschuh intelligence reports that the Nomad Thralls responsible for invading Kusari have retreated to Thuringia, a secretive 80-Years War stronghold. We have deployed the Osiris to investigate, and will be cooperating with the MND, a newly formed Federal task force under the command of proven ally Director Von Claussen. |
| [801 AS] New understanding of Nomad infiltration |
|
TOLEDO -- 801 -- Despite the recovery of suspected Nomad infectees, recent developments in Kusari have revealed the Nomad threat persists. It is now our belief that only a small minority of individuals -- such as Chancellor Niemann -- were directly infested with the “Incubi” parasite. These Infiltrators appear to have created networks of suggestible, contaminated individuals through a presently unknown mechanism. Reports from Rheinland Military personnel indicate that this influence was broken with the activation of the Daam-K’vosh Hypergate, leaving only hazy recollections of the period they were dominated. Our agents are currently collecting the medical records of affected individuals for urgent study so defensive countermeasures can be developed. |
| [801 AS] Nomads not yet vanquished |
|
KYOTO -- 801 -- Following the abrupt end of Rheinland’s attack on Planet New Tokyo, Blood Dragon strike squadrons have continued to harass retreating Military units. During these operations, the Gunboat Brüssow was found drifting in Honshu. A boarding team discovered that the crew had been massacred by the captain, who they successfully vanquished after incurring heavy casualties. An autopsy revealed the Rheinland officer had been the host of a Nomad parasite -- the creature had not been killed following The Order’s recent victory, as we had previously believed. It is possible other Nomad infiltrators may remain intact, with dire consequences if they are allowed to reestablish themselves. |
| [801 AS] Mass amnesia sweeps Rheinland Military |
|
BATTLESHIP WESTFALEN -- 801 -- Thousands of personnel recently released from the Rheinland Military are reporting symptoms of amnesia in what is coming to be known as “Colony War Syndrome”. It is currently unclear what is causing the affliction but many say they have little recollection of their time in service, describing a “hazy” or “dreamlike” fugue state that ended with the collapse of the Niemann regime. Psychologists remain baffled by the unprecedented situation, but suspect the consistent symptoms may be a form of mass hysteria provoked by feelings of shame or guilt over the unjustified war. |
