My Empire contact sent me a nice mail in it she tells of the wars end between her corp and a mercenary group, and that her research can now continue without any more external problems.
Terra Hawks mean while have moved alliances we are now fighting for Initiative Mercenaries rather than against them, -A- pissed us all off with a snotty email so the vote was unanimous we left -A- Citizens and switched sides. Some of you may think this is a bad thing, but after the way we were spoken to by -A- and their treatment towards so called allies it makes a nice change to feel your actually wanted or needed on the battle field. This can do wonders for a corps moral and a pilots ability to keep a cool head. As for the war it is going well, system after system and station after station are falling to Initiative corps as they gain a bigger foothold in the Catch region of New Eden.  As for a new home system that information is still to be decided upon as the dust is yet to settle from this conflict, but I am hoping we can grab a station system where we can build up some kind of trade hub and start to manufacture items for the local area and alliance.

I had to sell most of my ships in LGK-VP as we did not have the room in the carriers to move them out to safety, so I lost a lot of ISK in this move. It broke my heart to decommission Angels Grace my Tempest class battleship, as she was being taken apart by the station crew I walked along the gang planks that lined her hull running my hand along some of her battle scars she had got from fighting the Angel Cartel in Y-JKJ8.  Now I need to sit back and hunt the local pirates for their CONCORD bounties, but as I do this an idea is forming on how I can make this easier to achieve and to future proof any industry we manage to create up here. To do this though I will need a dedicated ship that can fit numerous roles, the new tech III strategic cruisers would be idea for this venture so I am going to have to give my contact a cash injection into the LOKI project to move things along a bit faster. Started to train Cynosural Field Theory again, I am going to stick with the program to get as much knowledge out of it as I can because if I pass this exam I can then try for my Black Ops battleship. With this under my belt I can then try for Carrier pilot, Elders know we need more than what we have at present. Also having a Black Ops fleet in corp can give us an extra edge in a fleet battle.

As i write this though our corporation is regrouping and gaining strength once more as whispers come in of new members willing to join the fight and risk everything to live out here on the edge. The capsuleers and their crews that arrive will be welcomed, and can take a great strain off some of our pilots that need to rest up from their tours in Catch.
