COLOSSUS BULLETIN

SHIP STATUS

--------------------------------------------------------------------------------


Operation Privateer continues....

Initial reports have been sketchy to say the least, however Intel believes the Pirates are attempting an evade policy instead of simply retreating from the area. This theory has been backed up by reports of random attacks on convoy's to our rear.

To counter this threat, Setti System Security (SSS) forces have dropped back to fill the vacuum left by our advance.

Other than that, things have remained very quiet, very very quite. In fact from now on all R2 units will be carrying cattle prods in an attempt to determine if the crew is actually alive.

So there you have it... add a post to the run-on.......... or get prodded by a R2 unit >:P

Incidentally, the wing and ship websites can be found at www.isdcolossus.com and www.isdcolossus.com/com/ . These two sites will continue to cover the majority of what we need while myself and abv work on a new site.
