[Delete] | The PaxMillion Ltd Corporate News Feed is very similar to Starship Troopers Federal Network, news feeds all connected to each other through related stories and subjects, with a twist or corporate bravado. Access is open to anyone within a transmitted and the big news today is the attack on Tatooine.
*Grainy amateur footage of the attack plays while a voiceover begins*
Last night in the Tatoo sector on the outer rim, local forces responded to a distress signal from a dubiously damaged freighter. Noted responders were a USAT interception force along with Federation Starfleet forces. During rescue operations, the Freighter ejected part of it's hull revealing itself to be a covert weapons platform. As local forces responded the torpedo boat fired off 6 nuclear weapons and discharged a series of covert mines which cloaked and have created a shrouded minefield in the middle of the system, cutting off normal trade routes and disrupting traffice pattern. Follow on reports shoed a Starfleet vessel stuck in the middle of the mine field, being assisted by a Tragoilte Federation squadron.
The resulting fight ended the existence of the torpedo boat as the starfleet vessel engaged and destroyed them shortly after torpedo launch. Corporate reports say that all torpdeo's were shot down.
PaxMillion Ltd. wishes to extend it's condolences to the families of those lost in the attacks and wishes a speedy recovery to the injured. Special considerations are to be given to the crew of the PMM Depra who collied with components of the minefield, all aboard were lost. *Stock footage of the freighter is shown as well as a picture of the command crew, the voiceover drones on about stock prices resulting from the freighter and more corporate mumbo jumbo.*
"Would you like to know more?"*Of course! you think as you click the link. The next story Covers the resulting battle between the TTE and TF. Video from a solar probe shows the foldspace tear forming in-system of Tatooine and the TTE Battlefleet exiting. Most of the ships show damage from this angle and it all plays out as a female voice begins speaking*
Shortly after the terrorist attacks on Olympus station a TTE fleet entered the Tattoo system and began a cat and mouse game with local forces. Reports show fast moving interceptor frigates locking down and projecting ECM on defense forces while at the same time TTE turrets moved to target defending vessels. USAT SNAFU forces engaged with weapons fire before contact was made with the Fleet's commander, the infamous Jon Perkins. As the EOS Command vessel exited the tear a desperate plea was made to USAT Alliance forces. As cease fire was given, the TTE veseels made a last stand attempt, turning back to the tear to engage pursuing forces, while still defending from USAT firepower bearing down on them.
The conclusion came swiftly as the Tragolite 23rd Strike Fleet, with components of the 3rd Battle Fleet exited the tear, engaging TTE vessels during their foldspace transit. What resulted was a massacre of TTE forces by the fleet under the command of Grand Admiral Carter. Numerous attempt to gain the surrender of defending TTE forces were reported by sources unable to name themselves due to fear of punishment, but the TTE stood to the very end, the last coordinated fleet of seperatists has been eliminated.
We are awaiting further word from Tragolite officials on what this means for the TTE's civil war, but as it is, remnant forces seem to be withdrawing or standing down.
