I have forwarded the bulk of our assignments back to Kaplain and also we agree that for maximum safety, one or two items we have may need to be moved onboard the Stormhawk for their protection. It may just be paranoia, but the Nomads may get a idea of what we are doing and make attempts to stop us.
I announced to the rest of the crew today of our intention to proceed with our next phase of operations. Almost all of the crew did agree with what we are planning, with only a handful apparently skeptical of the long-term repercussions of such actions. I will speak with some department heads and help them to assure their teams that everything is happening as planned and we are taking great care to not take unnecessary risks.

The refit we had in the Edinburgh system at a BMF installation was completed the other day. The Stormhawk now has a higher power efficiency than before and can also operate the Phoenix array at full power the entire time the ship is active. I have also made sure our dampening field fully protects the Fuelcell, as we know other groups out there would be very interested in us if they were to detect it on-board. With the improvements made from the Thorium MOX injections in our reactor and the Nomad Fuelcell being adapted to our systems, I believe we are now ready to advance Epsilon 11.
The Order also offered us a new path to assist them with other operations, so I am ordering the Stormhawk back to the Omicrons immediately. I am anxious to see what they have in store again.

It has been a long road getting to this point, but we are finally here. On this day, we will move to the final stage.
Epsilon 11 is to be enacted immediately. Our recent success with the Order and gaining some favour with them has helped us gain a solid reputation with them. This will go a long way I believe. Our science teams will continue as they have always done. Their work has been once of the pinnacles of our successes.
We will returning to Corinth to move a active Nomad powercell off that base to the Stormhawk for tests in deep space. I have already prepped Gatecrashers with their duties for this. In addition, vessels detected as being Infected from this point onward detected within range of us will be marked for termination and eradicated to the best of our ability. Hopefully we will continue to find more allies out there to help with this goal. Our Phoenix array operating at peak efficiency will be our main weapon we use for finding our enemies wherever they try to hide.
All of those seemingly endless months or trials, exploring and hardships have finally come to this. It is time to protect humanity with every possible effort. All these efforts must not go to waste. Delta 4 must survive.
