Squad Update:
A Short message from our Admirals…:
Loose Screws is at war. Our opponent is using a long time but inactive ally to attack Loose Screw space. This aggressor has ignored all our offers to communicate and parlay. I can only assume their role-play is to project evil. The good news, this has energized our BGS CMDRs and engaged our allies. We are in it for the long haul. Our final message to our faceless foe. We can not stop you from attacking our space but there is nothing you can do that we can not undo. Time is the real currency in this game and we have more of it than you.

Pirate Attack hits Fed System (CG): https://youtu.be/L0D1QxHtKk0?si=5FzhN-cvpy77ug60 Reward for this CG are some pretty cool paintjobs for either the Federal Gunship, or the Federal Corvette, it is also a great way to get some Fed rank if you need it.
Thargoid War - http://dcoh.watch
With HADAD’s recent explosion, there are 4 Titans left. AXI is focusing Titan Indra is next, but it is currently sitting at 91 controlled systems.
Selection for the trial of Commander Mechan for colluding with Thargoids, and crimes against humanity is currently still underway.
Dev News:
Last week, but still important: Type 8 REVEALED - It appears to be shaped like awesome, and is fueled by sweetness.
Medium Sized
SCO Friendly
Reportedly we will be happy with the cargo space (Reportedly enough cargo space for Daxi’s ego).

Thursday Server-Side Patch
Spire system spread pushback no will no longer target Alert systems
Uninhabited Alert systems are now less challenging to contest
Additionally, alternative activities to Orthrus hunting within these systems (e.g. escape pod rescues or interceptor hunting) have received significant boosts to war contribution.
Basilisk, Medusa and Hydra interceptor types have received further boosts to war contribution
Scout types have received a significant boost to war contribution
Bug fixes:
The spire system in Hyades Sector DX-H a11-1 incorrectly received spread pushback from another spire system. Spire systems should always be immune to any form of spread pushback, so this was unintentional.
On the Thursday turn, Hyades Sector DX-H a11-1 will have 25% removed from progress, and 25% will be added to the next furthest system, Hyades Sector ST-Q b5-2
Discussion:
Is Commander Mechan a terrible human being for killing ax pilots and why do you think he is?
