Dinos skirmish with Terrasaur ship

The Dinos have skirmished with a Terrasaur warship on the edge of Dino Republic space. One Dinomark XT was attacked by the Terrasaur, a powerful warship of a previously unknown type, but managed to get away with severe damage. Later on a Dinomark AM, rumoured to have been commanded by Ronald, engaged the Terrasaur ship and defeated it in battle forcing the Terrasaurs to retreat.

The Terrasaurs are making more and more incursions into Dino and DTA space, forces have been reinforced in the area but the Terrasaurs simply probe elsewhere.

Raegris detect five Reptoli Tuuls joining Bolitic

A Raegris patrol has detected five Reptoli Tuul Utrek warships en route to Bolitic space. The ships were displaying Bolitic callsigns which indicates it was a delivery not a deployment from a Utrek successor state.

Later intelligence sources on Castarian confirmed the ships were bought by the Bolitic Emperor Melson in return for "services" to assist the Molentic (the planet not the Utrek warship - which is named after it) based successor faction. It is thought Bolitic troops have been assisting the Molentic Republic in establishing itself as a premier successor state.

NS cannot rule out foreign power involvement in power station attack

NS VP Operations Caratore has said that foreign powers cannot be ruled out in the terror attack on a nuclear power station on Proxima 7 which was foiled by NSIS. "All lines of enquiry are being investigated by NS3 [NS Security Service]" he told reporters at GHQ.

A former DDS intelligence officer has said that it is unlikely to be the Tarbotians or Argon but a faction of the collapsed Utrek could be a possibility.

NS score huge export order

The secretive Wikosi 904 beyond the Western Rim have placed a huge seventeen billion zark order with NS for an array of warships. Wikosi has a fairly powerful fleet but it is reported to be becoming obsolescent and Wikosi is starting to be harassed by the Bolitic (Wikosi is nine light years from Smolask).

Delivery times have yet to be finalised though the first ships will be delivered next year. Wikosi has ordered high-end, low-end and support ships. The highlight of the order will be six Yel'Tema 115 Fleet Combat Ships. Wikosi's flagship is an ageing Raegris Cosmos so tyhe type makes sense. They will be supported by three Corkscrew 425s which will be fitted out for long range patrol.

Also ordered are eight Pentekonter Protector 365 e-Core patrol ships, three Depender 755 multi-role ships and three Extender 125 oilers.
