In the time since the war began the junkers have been quietly flying below the radar of most of the major factions, maintaining a tenouous neutrality. Realizing that the proximity of their primary bases to major house capitals was rapidly becoming more dangerous than it was worth, they began an ambitious plan. They constructed huge mobile bases by recycling scrap metal and parts from the extensive debris fields scattered across the Sirrus sector. They also salvaged engine parts and capital ship shield technology from recent battle sites. Once their mobile bases were ready they quitely abandoned their asteroid bases in New York, New London, and Hamburg and dissappeard. They have not been heard from or seen since. Until now.

Status Report

From: Junker patrol A11-3
To: New Albany Base

While on routine patrol our scanners picked up a lone life pod bearing Axis Liberty markings. On closer investigation discovered the presence of lifesigns.
One human male abot middle age. Claimed to be a reasearch scientist for the former Liberty House. Before we preformed a memory wipe he gave us a data pad, supposedly the diary of someone named Zane. Appears worthless but the encryption is more sophisticated than anything I have ever seen. Am returning to base for further study.

Aplha Patrol out.

I have a question. What other factions other than the Junkers are not currently aligned with either of the two major factons?

"WHAT"Admiral Redmond shouted"He is missing?"

"Yes sir"Captain Deveraux said."Is he so important.
"Damn right he is. He knows some of our important secrets. We can't let them to fall into wrong hands"
"What do we do"
"Send a retrieval squad."
"Yes sir"
OOC:A liberty retrieval squad is a special ops unit equipped with cloaks and best guns liberty has. That missing dude is one that junkers found-

Liberty Navy scientists have developed a jump drive. The jump drive creates an anomaly in space similar to jump holes and jump gates. It will enable an entire fleet to go through the artificial jump hole.

A new vehicle has been developed for Liberty Navy Marines. Called VSV-1(Vertical Support Vehicle)it is a combat and fire support vehicle which stands on two feet. It is armed with missiles and different size laser cannons and operated by 6-man crew.

OOC: The Farmers' Alliance (me) and Aegira are neutral

As well as the Zoners, who are quite dead at the moment.

ok well no one's suggested anything. Omega Chief, you choose a planet. You are the defender, after all.

@DSQ,

You'd think that if RHEINLAND (hint hint) owned a colony they'd know how to spell its name
