Campaign blunder makes Foiritan a laughing stock.

  • YC107-04-27

    While Eman Autrech and Mentas Blaque launched their election campaigns with only the minimal of hitches, current president Souro Foiritan was left sitting in the dust looking like a fool. Foiritan has never been known to be the most prepared or meticulous of men, but even his blasé reputation can’t save him some blushes now. While the thoroughly trained delegates of Autrech and Blaque are busy stoking the campaign fires of their respective masters, Foiritan’s supporters have nothing but pitiful embers [...]

    New CONCORD Legislation Prohibits Agent Distribution of Advanced Tech Components

    • YC107-04-27

      After a series of meetings over the last week, CONCORD's Inner Circle this morning passed new legislation prohibiting empire corporation agents from passing on Tech II construction components to capsule pilots engaged in freelance work for them. The primary reason for the legislation, according to Inner Circle Head Irhes Angireh, is "the need for the empires to divert their resources towards their own ends. Both CONCORD and the four empires have paid tremendous amounts of money and resources to the [...]

      • YC107-04-25

        Late last night, a freelance trader named Kerio Ekoena was spotted in the Nonni system, buying slaves, drugs, firearms and a whole host of other illegal goods, showing that the rumour mill can occasionally hold the unvarnished truth. Working for a third party corporation, he is suspected to have spent millions obtaining the contraband items they require. Who he is fronting for is still the object of wide speculation. Astonishingly though, it is believed that a trader by the name of Jashira Ne´rgha of [...]

        Slave riots in Taru

        • YC107-04-24

          Last night a riot is rumoured to have occurred in a slave holding facility somewhere within the Taru system. It’s believed the facility where the alleged riot occured is owned by Korramasha Mawhi, a small time slave trader with no record of illegal activities. Solid evidence has been hard to come by, but four ships in Korramasha’s possession, including two Zealots and two Sacrileges were seen being piloted by four Matari personel heading towards Minmatar space. These ships were intercepted and [...]

          • YC107-04-23

            Stargate technicians are working overtime tonight in Orvolle, after the automated sentry guns failed to stop an attack on a Viator class transport ship. In addition to their failure to engage, logging systems also did not catch the identities of the 6 ships which attacked and destroyed the Viator, although eyewitnesses say that the party consisted of a Helios, a Raven, a Stabber, a Vigil, another unidentified ship and most oddly, an Iteron class V industrial cargo vessel. The failure of these 2 [...]

            • YC107-04-22

              Earlier this week, word started to trickle through the criminal underground in the Lonetrek region, that an as yet unnamed Gallente corporation is making preparations to buy large amounts of contraband goods for what is rumoured to be a drastic new research project. Many of the universes worst drugs, as well as slaves are thought to be on the list of desired contraband. When and were the items will be purchased, and for how much is something that the rumours have as yet failed to deliver. Concord has [...]

              Mysterious Attacks on Increase at the fringes of Caldari space.

              • YC107-04-21

                Recent news reports have been flooding in from various anonymous sources of attacks at the fringes of Caldari space. For the past few months these mysterious attacks have been on the rise and they do not appear to be letting up. Each of the attacks appears to contain a small tightly nit fleet of eight or so Caldari ships, enlisted in an oddly named corporation. Every attempt at communication with any of these vessels is met with garbled and seemingly random noise. Early attempts at decrypting the [...]

                Terrorist finally caught

                • YC107-04-21

                  Earlier today Caldari Navy did a raid in Dantumi, leading the capture of the terrorist named Black Scarab. Miss Yaila Heeth, aka Black Scarab, had for several years been working disguised as a Caldari Navy courier, using her clearance to gain access to information and designs to be used against the Caldari Empire in acts of terrorism. She has earlier been under suspicions for espionage and a tip from an unknown source led to her capture while setting charges that would have disrupted gate travel out [...]

                  • YC107-04-20

                    Late last night, one of the leading authorities in regenerative genetics, Professor Mkauna Nkumi, was found dead in his research facilities in Ferira system. Concord police say that they currently have no leads as to the motive of the attack. However, the sheer brutality and utter rage this murder appears to have been conducted in, is allowing criminal psychologists to narrow down the search considerably. Logs also indicate that the professors clone, which was kept in a special facility adjacent to [...]

                      Perkone Corporation, one of the few remaining Caldari corporations founded during the Industrial Age on Caldari Prime, announced today a dramatic increase in their sales of munitions and arms over the past few months, reversing all of their past trends of surplus materials and unsold stock. Since the war with the Federation, Perkone has struggled, barely managing to produce their lines of "solid, high quality equipment."

                      Search for Hol Hignotta yields no results

                      • YC107-04-16

                        In a statement earlier this morning, Concord announced that they have called off the official search for Hol Hignotta, the pilot responsible for the unprovoked and fatal attack on an Opus Luxury Yacht in the Yulai system. The active search period of three weeks has passed and as they have found absolutely no leads hinting at his whereabouts, the search has been called off. Even mercenaries have been unable to track down the elusive terrorist. The lack of clues pointing to his location is breeding an [...]

                                Reports have been filtering in that the known terrorist organisation "United against Decadence and Impurity" (UDI), has obtained some highly sensitive documents, which if true, means that the Ushra’Kahn alliance has suffered a major security leak. The documents are rumoured to contain not only the identities of a large portion of the members of the Ushra’Kahn, but their most commonly used ships, the setups and what stations their agents inhabit. It goes on to name all of the corporations in the [...]

                                  Concord was shamed last night when it emerged that one of their up and coming officers was illegally supplying the Guristas pirates with highly classified information. The officer, Juul Anttus met his downfall, ironically when one of the people he betrayed decided to do some private detective work. Hyota Vasy, a sub-nanite communication engineer first became a target for the Guristas when, during one of his many research experiments in deep space he stumbled upon a top secret communiqué, detailing the [...]

                                            As expected, Court Chamberlain Dochuta Karsoth released the following statement on the situation revolving around the stolen Cross of the Sacred Throne order. “Since the Empire was founded, we have placed a great deal of emphasis on our traditions and customs. It is these traditions and customs that define the Empire and its many provinces. It seems that ironically enough, some forget this in their passion to support us.

                                              It has been almost a whole year since the Elarel massacre, where over 300 Gallentean dignitaries and entertainment industry personnel were slaughtered. This incident, one of the worst terrorist atrocities in living memory, was the handiwork of the UDI (United against Decadence and Impurity), a group who has claimed responsibility for countless terrorist incidents in Federation space over recent years. Ever since the attack in Elarel, President Foiritan has waged war on their activities, a war which he [...]

A pilot called "Budy" claims to have this invaluable trinket in his possession, having opened a sales auction on the GalNet forums. Although it is unsure at this time whether or not the pilot actually holds the medal, awarded to Admiral Trevize by the Emperor himself, this has not stopped him from receiving several high bids already. We will keep you up-to-date when more information comes in.

For the residents of Misaba, a system on the very fringes of Amarr space the change is abrupt and shocking. Inside the station, an entire medical isolation section has been quarantined with guards being given shoot-to-kill orders for any civilians who approach. Externally it’s a whole different picture.

According to rumours, two leading scientists from within the biotech giant's inner circle of research and development have gone away without leave, reportedly in possession of a highly classified experimental drug taken from the corporation's main laboratories in Isseras. The drug, known only as "Insorum," is [...]

Now that the fierce court room scuffles are over, the battle can move into the public arena, where freelance corporation vie for the honor and prestige of getting to select an Emissary from their own ranks.

The security forces sent the many pilots they hired out to scout and secure solar systems surrounding the Paara system and more specifically the DCM station, immediately. The pilots were not made aware of what they were looking for, only to report back “suspicious pirate activity”. When they were given the reason for this mission, however, the reason for the lack of [...]

There are many pilots who have tried it at some point in their careers, with their cargoes sometimes being more illicit than others. While the shipment of humans, most notably slaves is not frowned upon by all of the races, it is seen by those who oppose it as one of the most unacceptable cargos to carry. Such is this feeling that pilots took the matters into their own hands. A convoy was detected moving slaves from Gallente space, through the [...]
