Folks, it's been pretty quiet the last few days, and I'm sure we're all happy for that. I've been taking the time to recover from my injuries from that fight with the Outcasts. While I've been in and around, I've been talking to the engineers we got on board. It sounds like we're ready to begin the second stage of expansion that'll allow us to make the station more durable and bring more systems online.

In order to do this, we're gonna need a heck of a lot of various resources to get it online. More than I think we realistically have the ability to get by ourselves, given our lack of stupid money-shaped sh*t. Donations from sympathetic parties are always appreciated, no euphemisms intended this time, but I've got some other plans which might work out for us if y'all are interested.

Our relations with the Maquis have panned out real well, and this means they're are willing to take us on for their bounty hunting boards. This is gonna be important for us--it's a form of income that also helps us keep the area around us safe. I know we don't wanna get too into mercenary business, 'cuz that's ugly and it'll come back to bite us if we ain't careful, but being able to collect when we defend the area will still go a long way towards us being able to buy outside resources. We can't rely on charity forever without it. If y'wanna collect, y'need to make sure your ship's displaying the IFF code ND)- and make sure your computer's got the Outcasts and Royalists as red, otherwise the bounty board won't recognize you.

This doesn't mean we're gonna change how we conduct business on station, of course. As soon as it passes the airlock doors, 's gonna be communal resources. If y'have projects other than the station upgrade then y'can talk to people and see what we can do, but getting our systems online is top priority.

While I'm at it, it looks like the orbit that we chose is a bit too low for the long term, as we've been catching the upper atmosphere and it's causing us to dip even lower. We're gonna do a maintenance burn tonight to boost our orbit higher, so y'all should prepare for that. Ops will do an announcement when it's time.

Apart from all that, y'all are doing great. We've had good work around, and most of us are sleeping in real beds now instead of on mattresses. Andorra's getting more comfortable by the day and we're gonna keep it going forward. I'm proud of all you, keep it up.

Militia forces are gonna start meeting on Saturdays for training sessions. We had some small skirmishes lately and while we're doing pretty well, we've got a lot of rookies and even I'm a bit rusty. So if y'wanna learn how to fly better, swing on by for some simming on Saturdays and we'll get you sorted right out.

That's all I've got for right now. Anyone have any thoughts, questions, concerns, y'know this channel is always open, even to visitors. Let us know--I'm always paying attention to this feed. Work towards a new dawn.
