Applicants Ar Sogan, Kuno Kellinghusen and Jas McArthur,
Your applications have been reviewed and they check out. Consider yourselves preliminarily accepted. The Core believes in survival of the fittest, and what defines said fitness is up to you, which is why each of you will be tasked to do the following to showcase your savviness:
• Fully equip and load-out an armoured "Manta" AP-Line Very Heavy Fighter.
• Fly your Manta into the deeper Nomad Worlds, towards systems such as Omicron Iota and Omicron-99, and retrieve a single Nomadic material of your choosing.
• Do not get infected. Those people are always so frustrating to work with.
• Retrieving a Fighter remain promotes you to Guardian rank.
• Retrieving a Gunboat remain promotes you to Knight rank.
• Post a successful report of your expedition into this channel.
• This must be done without the support of ANY Core vessels of a higher rank present. However it can be done with other Initiates.
• Godspeed.
A word to Jas McArthur: I have had the opportunity to meet you once in Delta. Be aware that you will have to let go of your gunboat, as such things have to be earned in the Primary Fleet. Let's see if you can impress me, shall we? Climbing ranks should hardly be difficult for those with the correct mindset
