DDS South to be boosted

DDS South, the group of planets between Liberation and Starbot, was for a long time the backwater of DDS interest but nowadays with the 7 Sa Sao and ABBO threats it is the likely front line for future DDS operations. Windy has announced that DDS South will be strengthened and also re-organised.

The sector will be split into DDS South (Liberation and Saeou 6) and DDS Starbot (Starbot, Malau, Delta 9). DDS South will be the home of a DDS fleet (the 3rd) and a patrol pool allocation. DDS Starbot will be based around an expansion of the Starbotian fleet and DDS ships operated by Starbtian crews. Permanent DDS Army garrissons will be based on Liberation and Delta 9 (Starbot has it's own army).

A 190 million zark contract to improve communications between the planets in the sector and GHQ and also to set up a new listening post on Liberation has just been signed. A 140 million zark contract to improve orbital defences around Starbot and Liberation as well as set up basic self-defence around the other planets is also likely to be signed soon.
