The Orchid has instigated a new "joint-command" of the 2 DDS fleets which are in combat with the ABBOs as part of a reshuffle of command. DDS Centre is now being commanded by The Orchid and Windscorpion and DDS South by Knobhead and Sea Urchin. The "joint-command" model The Orchid says will allow for a seamless changeover of control should one commander be killed or incapacitated.
Under the model the 2 commands take charge on alternate days though remain in the full loop to take over at any time. Von Kane has been put in sole command of DDS North which is no longer considered in the firing line.
