Thanks to the new DDS/Sirikwan military treaty signed by Windscorpion while he was there the DDS now have access to the Sirikwanese database on the Bolitic Confederacy, it is said the DDS now might even know more about the Bolitic than the Dinos! The Sirikwanese have discovered that the Bolitic are currently rebuilding some of their older BS4004 Helwin battlecruisers as BS4005 Helwin B. These include technology from the current BS4040 Snarl class. It is thought the Bolitic are also working on a replacement for the Snarl.
The Sirikwanese have discovered recent evidence of contact between the Utrek and the Bolitic. In the last few months Utrek military envoys have visited Castarian (the Bolitic capital world) twice and may help the Bolitic with engine technology. The Bolitic are lagging behind quite badly, literally! Their fastest ships, the Snarls, can only reach about 300c.
Meanwhile Task Force Windscorpion has run into some trouble in unclaimed space near the edge of the Bolitic Confederacy. A Helwin class ship of an unidentified House transmitted a virus into SS Carboniferous knocking out it's communications array and then attempted to board and raid SS Globemaster however the Bolitic were forced to retreat after Windy intervened.
