Almost a year after the Summer Inti war of 3307 another fierce battle took place in this hotly contested system. The Fatherhood this time were fighting to help push Hai Ho Silver Linings out and in turn establilsh a permanent presence in Inti with a promise to bring wealth and prosperity to the billions of people in the system. Hai Ho Silver Linings have been causing constant trouble and upheaval for the many citizens of Inti who for years have been pulled this way then that in the constant power struggle between the controlling factions all vying for their slice of power. Hai Ho were the chief culprit in this, constantly looking to undermine and cause disruption anyway they could.

The Fatherhood,who have long had a good working relationship in the system with the other factions, finally stepped in to help and in turn have brought the much needed and longed for stability that the good people of Inti have craved for so long. Many battles were fought in the skies above the planets of Inti with the might of the Fatherhood fleet being so overwhelming that Hai Ho were helpless to resist the near constant onslaught from some of the best fighters pilots this side of the galaxy. Red, Blue and Green squadrons were all present and it must have been a demoralising sight to the limited forces of Hai Ho when they saw these fearless commanders heading towards them with a cry of “FREEDOM” coming over their communicators.

The Inti people can now rest easy and look forward to a happy and peaceful future as part of the expanding Fatherhood family.

The busy Federation system Inti was this week the scene of a pitched conflict as a powerful Imperial faction invaded without warning. The entire system was swiftly turned into a warzone, with conflicts zones occurring near almost every major planet.

Ships and carriers deployed from across nearby space to meet the invaders in battle and desperately try to repel them. Leading the charge were Commanders from The Fatherhood, a minor democratic faction with loose ties to the Federation.

“We have been very active in the Inti system for over nine months now, assisting with security and logistics for the factions there.” stated one of their field captains. “It’s been a profitable exchange and one we intend to continue uninterrupted. A new faction arriving can only mean months of disruption as they vie for control. Though the attack came as a complete surprise, our forces responded immediately and poured into the system.”

Initially the momentum of the battle was with the invaders, possibly supplemented by combat bonds earned in other conflicts. The first day was declared a victory for the Imperials, though it was not to last. The remote industrial heartland was the scene of the fiercest fighting, where it took the light from the main star longer to arrive than it did for the defenders to gain the upper hand.

With the battle now over, we can reflect on the frantic recent days. While there were numerous sorties between commanders, the fights were considered fair and honorable. Fatherhood forces noted that their foes fought a good fight, and had expended significant efforts to orchestrate this conflict. “We met them on the field of battle, and fought them well. We have proved by right of conquest that it is us who shall determine the future for the people of Inti. We fully expect this to be respected by the defeated. The sun has set on their aspirations for Inti”

On this glorious day, The Fatherhood – Bravo Squadron (xbox) made history, taking Double Gold in the squadron leaderboard season, with one Gold in Exploration and Combat each.

A gargantuan effort from the finest collection of cmdr’s, both veteran and new, in cartographing systems off the path to and from Colonia on our recent multi carrier cruise, coupled with the ever increasing pirate pest control activities, superb mentorship and team effort made this significant achievement possible.

Congratulations to everyone who participated. You rock!
