3067
January 2, 3067 – As the Civil War winds down, the large number of pirates and raiders in FedCom space that were taking advantage of their weaknesses and lack of attention are now moving to other targets, and we have news of one such raid next door in Ruchbah. We split off the Fredesa WarShip and the Essex-class Dark Claw to create two roving, quick response units that jump from system to system, just checking to make sure everything is okay, with special attention on border worlds and ones with large amounts of targets, such as Acamar, or vulnerable ones, like Asmodeus.
January 3, 3067 – After three years of investigation, our team on Carver IV’s moon, has found that the old shipyards here are salvageable. It will require about 10 billion CBills, 8 years at least, but we could salvage and build a new set of shipyards there that would be suitable to building DropShips and JumpShips, and give us a full blown repair facility.
That would be a huge boon to the Coalition, but we are not sure about the money outlay. We just don’t have that kind of money, and Blake’s not immediately interested. We would need to borrow or find another way to finance it.
So instead, what we do is send that information out every major or minor military company in the Inner Sphere and ask for bids. What we’d like to do is discuss plans to co-build or co-own and develop the facility, and share costs in it.
