Caratore pardoned by Torus

Former Viceroy Caratore has been pardoned by NS Commander Torus. Torus said that Caratore had proved vital in facilitating the fight back against MBO, including locking out MBO access to NS' nuclear missiles. "We are willing to forgive his past crimes, all NS should follow suit."

Caratore will now command his ship SS Jurassic which will be part of the patrol fleet and no longer the flagship. Torus said that a new command structure will be revealed in the next few days.

DDS City hit by MBO attack

Four MBO ships made a suicidal attack on DDS City on Proxima 7 earlier today. All four ships were destroyed by NS ships and ground defences but the MBO ships were able to launch a devastating attack on the largest NS facility.

Dozens of NS personnel are reported lost after two buildings were destroyed including a major administrative facility. The oil storage depot has also been set ablaze. NS Commander Torus has strengthened the NS fleet over key planets.

Fighting between NS and MBO continues as Torus re-takes control

Gun battles between NS and MBO forces have been reported at a dozen locations across the UNP, though the outnumbered MBO are being quickly defeated. Unfortunately, they are fighting to the death which means NS is also taking heavy casualties.

In space there have been a number of battles between NS ships and MBO ships, also a rebellion on a ship with a heavy MBO crew complement which resulted in a self-destruction, the ship is thought to have been the Nectar cruiser SS Nimrod. The Corkscrew destroyer SS Comet was also reported lost after it was ambushed by three MBO ships.

One key concern is the NS nuclear weapons. Torus has said that the LRM force was dual-key controlled by the MBO and NS but a fractal encryption lock has been put on the LRM launch system so it can't be launched (by anyone). NSIS Marines are now securing the launch sites.

Torus has been confirmed as NS Commander again by a hastily assembled meeting of senior NS officers. Torus will not return to NS GHQ for the time being, SS Jurassic is being used as her flagship.

Caratore kills General Honey, calls for uprising against MBO!

In a shocking turn of events, the flagship of Viceroy Caratore rendezvoused with General Honey's ship near Liberation, and then destroyed it! General Honey was killed (though a new clone of him will already be activated). 

Caratore then addressed NS, flanked by Windscorpion and Torus of Real DDS. He said that the MBO rule over New Sparta was over, NS needed to rise up and cleanse itself of the MBO virus. He also said that he was no longer Viceroy, Torus had been restored as NS Commander.

Across the UNP there are reports of gun battles between NS and MBO forces. There are reported skirmishes in space too.

Real DDS claim anti-cloning weapon released on NS, all MBO clones betrayed

Real DDS have hacked into the NS information network and have claimed they have launched an anti-cloning weapon on New Sparta. They said that all NS personnel are now safe from being cloned by the MBO. Existing MBO made clones are also immediately identifiable as they are now bright orange!

The message was blocked by NS but there are reports of dozens of NS personnel now bright orange. Many have been attacked and even killed by other NS personnel.

Viceroy Caratore has not commented on the alleged attack. Indeed, he has joined his ship SS Jurassic and is heading to meet General Honey who is approaching NS space.

NS Medical HQ attacked, DNA database reported destroyed

NS Medical HQ's at DDS City has been attacked by an elite team, though to be the renegade Real DDS. The building was left on fire after the attack, the aim seems to have been the DNA database built up of all current and prior NS personnel. This is used by the MBO to create clones. One source said the database had been destroyed, along with cloning equipment.

Viceroy Caratore has put DDS City under lockdown.
