The Sietch will be brought offline for HPG systems maintenance tomorrow (Thursday, 2 May 2024). Please remain calm and do not start any interstellar wars while ComStar is busy.
May the Peace of Blake be with you.

The issue I have is that they used a Battleship for this. Using a Warship makes sense, using literally the biggest class of ship in the setting to date doesn’t unless they have nothing else able.
....They have a McKenna running raids. Guess they really want intel on us, cause using a Battleship on this kind of operation seems like overkill, unless they have nothing else capable I guess.
It would be interesting if continuing to go down the ultralight Mech path would have us approach Battle Armor development in reverse of the norm. Which is usually “how the hell do we make infantry more effective?”
I think part of the problem is that the Darcs can’t conceive of a Middle-Of-Bumfuck-Nowhere planet like ours as having meaningful infrastructure. Blame ComStar.
Man, I would love to see the Darc Commander’s reaction to this backwater, middle-of-fucking-nowhere planet suddenly erupting like a fucking hornet’s nest of ASFs and Hate
