A squadron of NS bombers, said to be under direct MBO command, has launched an attack on an asteroid in the Rim Worlds. The asteroid is said to have been utterly destroyed by several NS attack missiles armed with cluster nuclear warheads.
However, the reason for the attack has not been given or what the attack was actually on. The asteroid is an unclaimed lump of rock, just like countless millions of others across the galaxy. One unconfirmed report states that some sort of base facility was on the asteroid and has now been destroyed.
