Libertonian Coronado - The Fight For Independent Worlds

Independent Worlds, Coronado – Since the end of the war with Gallia, Liberty has taken to expanding in multiple directions; one part towards the Edge through the secretive Omicron-Nu, the other right into the heart of the Indie' Worlds. It's no secret Liberty has been building a jumpgate aimed right for the Coronado system, a tradelane away from Planet Curacao in Cortez. However conflict is stirring up as the previously untouched free worlds begins to get the touch of House Law. Reports show an increase of Maltese Vessels, often called the Outcasts, attempting to lock down the system to secure the long held Cardamine Corridor. Large capital-class vessels have taken to directly assaulting Crayterian and Libertonian vessels patrolling the system. Additionally, freelance profit hunters and the Bounty Hunter Guild have moved in to take their luck with the newest hot spot. Those few desiring freedom have also taken up arms. Wings from the Liberty Free Republic (LFR), often referred to as the Xenos, have performed strikes on navy vessels with outstanding success. Gaian vessels have been routed to assist in the sector as well, with even the mechanist-obsessed Auxo striking out on occasion. It's no secret what Liberty is doing with this expansion and backing of the Crayter Republic. The Independent Worlds are a rich ground for those who want to strike out and try to make a name for themselves. However, the capitalistic Republics desire the entire area for themselves, limiting the already slim slice of space useable to free people. With California fully colonized and controlled, its without question that Cortez, Magellan, and Coronado come next. Worrying times are ahead for those wanting to live not under the thumb of an oppressive control. - Piper Taylor, Autumn Broadcast
