    Dear God....and I thought Starman had gotten to the peak of humour. THIS IS THE FUNNIEST FANFIC EVER! And I´ve got my own evil plans too....*strokes button to fire the Uber-Ray Of Superkerblazification and a map of Nederbord´s base*

    *activates comm screen* ´Gentlemen, I have a deal for you. Release Starman Omega, or be obliterated by the....*play dramatic music as curtain is ripped away from large cannon-like thing* RAY OF UBER-KERBLAZIFICATION!!! MUHAHAHAHA!! *ahem* As I was saying, release Starman Omega....or be destroyed. Nad don´t think that you can get away. In case you haven´t noticed, you have already been infiltrated twice and you have a massive blob approaching to kill you all. Oh....I wasn´t supposed to say that.....ah well, release Starman Omega or DIE! *laughs maniacally while stroking a very angry cat* ´And by the way, the police wanted me to tell you that they impounded your ships for landing in a no landing zone, crushed them into cubes, and that you have to collect the cubes. Until next time.´

    That has got to be one of the best chapters yet! Great job Starman. Now, about those PPC agents.... *re-activates and charges the Uber-Ray of Superkerblazification* I´ve been waiting for the perfect opportunity for this....

After finally recovering from a large technological attack (suspects are angry and now homeless Corsairs) DSE Headquaters has discovered that a large crisis has formed in Sirius. Bretonia and BMM are at Liberty and Daumann´s collective throat. The BHG has been all but annihalated. The Battleships <i>Undertaker </i> and <i>Relentless </i> have vanished. In short, things have taken a turn for the worse. DSE HQ has begun to take steps to survive this crisis and continue forward from the ashes. NEW FLEET LAUNCHES FROM BALTIMORE SHIPYARD Today the largest construction effort in the history of DSE was completed. The Battleships <i>Lionheart, </i> <i>Judicator </i> and <i>Reaper </i> launched from Baltimore Shipyard today. The <i>Lionheart, </i> the new flagship of the DSE Navy, is commanded by Admiral Kershaw. The <i>Judicator </i> is commanded by Vice Admiral Kenshin, a former Kusari navy officer who joined long before the BHG wiped out the Kusari Navy, and the <i>Reaper </i> is commanded by Flag Captain Dominic. The ships have been placed in the newly formed <i>Justice Fleet </i>, along with the Cruisers <i>Revenge, </i> <i>Excalibur </i> and <i>Adventurer </i>. DSE NAVY ABANDONS EXPLORATION ATTEMPTS Today a spokesperson from DSE Naval Command on Planet Pittsburgh stated that there would be no more exploration attempts for a long time. In his statement, he said, ´We have already lost a lot of brave adventurers searching for new systems, and we have greater need for men like them now, in this time of crisis. Therefore, we shall be postponing all exploration missions indefinitely. <hr size=1 noshade></BLOCKQUOTE></font><font face=´trebuchet ms, Verdana, Arial, Helvetica´ size=2> <font size=1 face="trebuchet ms"><BLOCKQUOTE><hr size=1 noshade>TO PRESIDENT ROC OF LIBERTY FROM PRESIDENT HAWK OF PREY, DSE President Roc, we understand that you are currently engaged in hostilities with Bretonia.

The New Zealand system, named after an ancient nation on Earth, is rather unremarkable, as it has no planets, however construction of a base in the system was carried out immediately. BATTLESHIPS RELENTLESS AND UNDERTAKER ENGAGING PIRATES IN THE OMEGAS The Battleships Relentless and Undertaker are beginning search and destroy operations in the Omegas. Currently they are searching for hidden Corsair bases. The campaign in the Omegas is expected to be a success, with no problems expected. SETBACKS IN THE GAS/METAL MINER SERIES, LABORATORIES START FROM SCRATCH Professor Issacs, Head Of Research of DSE Laboratories, has reported that the first test flight of the DSE Gas/Metal Miner design was a catastrophic faliure at best. Hidden design flaws in the structuring of the ships caused them to begin to rupture after minutes in deep space, with a loss of atmosphere in the ship in 10 minutes and a reactor core breach after 1/2 an hour of space flight. These flaws have caused the entire process to be reevaluated, and the expected success of the design has been met by faliure. Thankfully, the prototype Gas/Metal Miner was automated, so no casualties were caused during the loss. DEEP SPACE ENGINEERING LABORATORIES ENHANCE JUGGERNAUT CLASS BATTLESHIPS Professor Jacobson, Head Of War Development at DSE Laboratories, has released a revised set of schematics for the weapons and armour structuring of the Trebuchet Class Battleships, which have enhanced the ship´s ability to repel enemy fighters. The revisions concentrated mainly on creating new weapons systems that are more powerful and have a deeper penetration against enemy fighters and enhancing the original weapons systems to be more effective. <hr size=1 noshade></BLOCKQUOTE></font><font face=´trebuchet ms, Verdana, Arial, Helvetica´ size=2> Edited by - Hawk Of Prey on 8/19/2005 4:48:42 AM Edited by - Hawk Of Prey on 8/19/2005 4:52:32 AM

Rear Admiral Execubar, current commander of the Relentless mentioned in his reports that one of the nearby systems was amazingly rich in metal, even more so than Colorado, and that constructing a mining station there would be a smart move. DEEP SPACE ENGINEERING EXPEDITIONS LAUNCHED The DSE Navy has just released some exciting news; a concerted effort to find new systems has been launched. Already, 2 wings of search ships have launched from the Naval HQ at Planet Canberra, and hopes are high that new systems will be found. President Hawk Of Prey was unable to give us a direct statement, but forwarded this message to us: &quot;Naval Command is confident that new systems are out there to be discovered, and I share that sentiment. The discovery of the Australia system has shown us that there are indeed new systems to be discovered, and we intend to find them.&quot; DEEP SPACE ENGINEERING LABORATORIES BEGIN RESEARCHING MINING VESSELS Today the newly opened DSE Laboratories began researching the construction blueprints for a series of Mining Vessels, similar to the ever-familiar Gas/Metal Miners of the GMG and IMG.

Tasmania Station´s purpose is to mine the incredibly rich metal deposits in the system, and so far the station is running at full capacity. The station itself is rather unremarkable, with the exception of the new DSE Biodomes having been added to the station´s superstructure. <hr size=1 noshade></BLOCKQUOTE></font><font face=´trebuchet ms, Verdana, Arial, Helvetica´ size=2>

Before engaging in hostilities, Commander Gunblader of the Bounty Hunters Guild announced that he was attacking all Rheinland, Kishiro, ALG and Daumann ships in Sigma 13. President Hawk Of Prey, recently returning from the Helgoland summit due to this crisis, is hoping that this was a mistake made by the Bounty Hunters Guild, and that they were unaware or had forgotten that the <i>Harvest </i> was in the system at the time. However, if it turns out that Gunblader attacked a Deep Space Engineering ship intentionally, then it may mean that there will be war between the two groups. <hr size=1 noshade></BLOCKQUOTE></font><font face=´trebuchet ms, Verdana, Arial, Helvetica´ size=2>

Please stop attacking our Mining Vessel. If you refuse, then I will be forced to consider it an act of war and react accordingly. I hope that we do not have to engage in open warfare with each other. <hr size=1 noshade></BLOCKQUOTE></font><font face=´trebuchet ms, Verdana, Arial, Helvetica´ size=2>
