Volume 15

All the news that's fit to print, first!
From the Editor's Desk
War is hell! I wish the diplomats would work a little faster and get us a peace treaty. Either that or we get some competent technologists to fix the Imperial military outposts so that our people can be safe. In the meantime, Imperial fighters have done a good job of fending off the attackers that have tried to cross our borders. I'm hoping next week we will see a new interview. Keep your fingers crossed.

General News
Heavy battles have been reported in the West Pardus Rim in the territory of the Sindarin Trade Society. Sadist Faction and Imperial Guard fighters have been attacking, but have yet failed to gain a foothold in this highly contested area. It is with my deep regret that I report that Imperius Blackheart suffered his first defeat of the war after sending countless Federation officers to a similar fate. Losses have been heavy on both sides, but the battle will likely only escalate in coming days, weeks and months if necessary.

The other main areas of battle have been northern Keldon, and the Lane.

Remember, we need all able pilots to fight this war! If you are a noble and haven't fought or provided to the war effort, I ask why not? If you respect the Emperor and serve him faithfully, then throw down with the villians of the Federation. If these aren't true, expect to have your nobility tested following the war. If you have shirked your duty to the Emperor there will be consequences, so fight if you can, provide if you can and above all, follow the orders of your Emperor.

The Keldon Report - by Frozen
A huge asteroid was on it's way to Urlafa this week. The best Imperial engineers were sent to help build a tractor ray to protect Urlafa from the asteroid. The engineers built the same ray on Greandin some time a go so they had experience and the job was completed very quickly. The materials that were required were mostly brought by Conglomo. The transport of the required materials was very well organized so the planet was saved. If it were not for the experienced engineers and Conglomo who knows what might had happened to Urlafa...

Sakura Hope has shown a great increase in population and is one of the biggest starbases in Pardus. The starbase is supplied by Conglomo, the same alliance that supplies Urlafa, so it's not a surprise that they are doing such a great job...

As for the war in Keldon, well actually nothing really important happened. Some Feds entered the Empire and tried to make trouble, nothing special just small fish for the Imperial fighters. Most of them left the Empire just as fast as they entered.
