Phantom strike force attacks kusari!

The phantom menace has struck again!

This time in the capital system of Kusari space, several battleship patrols were engaged and defeated near the capital planet new tokyo itself, several hundred police as well as civilian and military personnel and pilots are reported missing...

The kusari military is refusing to comment on rumours that the britonians were first thought to be responsible. However, it has been confirmed that the police did receive a report on the location of the staging base used by the phantom empire vessels.

It appears it was the hogasha base, kabukicho depot, once informed the police contacted the navy and a hasty surprise assult was launched. It appears however that the phantoms discovered this treachery by their former allies and attacked the depot.

The full extent of the damage is unknown at this time, but it is believed that the hogasha have had to abandon their former home, further more the two phantom ships were positively identified and seen heading into the hokkiado jumpgate. There has, as of yet, been no word yet from the police forces rushed to the hokkiado side of the jumpgate.

The phantom battleship khan, an osiris class battleship commanded by the manic Bloodfrenzy, broadcast a system wide video before jumping to hokkiado. It showned approximately sixty hogasha pilots who had been captured as the phantom ship was assulting kabukicho depot.

They were all executed, one by one, before bloodfrenzy sent this final verbal message:

"This is the fate that awaits all who resist or betray us!

We cannot and will not be stopped.

Your leaders know this to be true, it is why they did not fight us and left hundreds to die at our hands over planet new tokyo.

You have little time left until we cleanse you all from this sector, use it wisely and make your peace."

The phantom ships also struck at shinjuku station were several missiles from the Khan hit the station itself and destroyed the supports and couplings on one of the four habitat towers.

The navy called off the pursuit of the phantom ships and rushed to evacuate the damage tower before the weakened hull collapsed and killed thousands of families, so far the navy's effects to save them are continuing...


***OOC again***

The bit about the kusari leaders was intentional and aimed at the DVL who had two people on during the course of these events and did NOTHING to even try and stop us or ask us to leave.

At least the SF bother to care about the NPCs they protect.
