This is a grave day in the history of the SCRA my friends.
Our flagship, the Dreadnought, has been destroyed in action with an unidentified Hacker Spyglass and a Titan wing.
Apparently, during our short converse in orbit around planet Gran Canaria, these people are creating a new rival faction who aim to control omega-49.
Our information is coming from the blackbox aboard the Dreadnought, which was later recovered. The new Dreadnought will be bought from the Corsairs, and our previous warranty covered the cost of 225 million credits.
Apparently, a peaceful conversation was being held in orbit with the Titan leader along with multiple scans of the enemy (which we havent been able to recover), whe the Hacker Spyglass appeared and sneak-attacked us in mid-conversation.
Despite losing several valuable seconds in response time, the Dreadnought was able to give a good account of itself.
Even with the shields half down in a matter of seconds, the ship lasted for several minutes, attempting to reposition itself multiple times to bring its full broadside to bear on the enemy, which it was never able to do.
The Spyglass was down to less than a quarter hull when our great ship was destroyed along with its valiant crew. Whoever these people may be, they will have a hefty repair bill.
Fortunatly, the High Chancellor was not on board at the time, and thus was not killed.
The following ships are to treated with the utmost caution, as they seem keen to intitiate hostilities while distracting you with dialogue. Do not fall for this, engage if deemed prudent.

anyone else associating themselves with these two juvenile delinquents.
I am requesting all SCRA ships withdraw from foreign space back to Omega-49, as these people never seem to leave the system, and hopefully a weight of numbers will be sufficient to drive them out.
Make sure they do not attack traders, as these brave individuals supply Omega-49 and other nearby systems with many important goods.
High Chancellor out.
