June 3, 3063 – There is a quick raid on Epsilon Indi that is stopped by local forces. Fleeing bandits from Arboris perhaps?

June 10, 3063 – The CEO of Vicore Industries has been pushing for the Project Phoenix program. Older Star league designs are not selling that well, even with the early refits coming their way in 3048 or 3052. They aren’t selling well. So Vicore has been leading some projects to refurbish these ‘Mechs, but with a slightly redesigned chassis as well as the latest technology to push them to the forefront of the market.


Not all Phoenix designs are coming from Vicore. A few are coming from specific militaries and such. But many are.

Representatives of Lang and Vicore meet today in Caph to look over their factory and how they could renovate the Shadow Hawk design. Vicore takes some details and leaves.

Aug 2, 3063 - We put in a quick call, but no more Tramps are available on the market right now from Andurien. Ah well. That happens.

Instead, we sell both of the Leopards for 350 million (less than market value for ships not coming off the lines – I usually reduce our sales considerably).

We send out contacts to see what DropShips might be available for purchase that better meet our needs…

As per our agreement with Word of Blake, we can purchase transport vessels from them, straight off the presses.

But instead we purchase, for 325 mill, on outdated Overlord off the market. That’ll be our latest addition to the fleet. We also have the Mule, Gazelle, and upgraded Union. So we’ve added transport for 48 mechs, 15 tanks, and supplies.
