2770.5823 - Emperor claims rights to all colonial resources.
NEWS NET HISTORICAL ARCHIVES: August 1, 2770 will be remembered as a historic date in the history of the Empire. His Imperial Majesty presented the Fortress Earth Proclamations today before an enthusiastic crowd at the Good Fortune Pavilion in Nova Alexandria. Response from the colonies is less enthusiastic, as colonial representatives call the Proclamations "heavy-handed exploitation." More clear-eyed citizens, however, harbor no illusions about the overriding need to defend Earth, the ultimate target of the Cybrids.

NEWS NET HISTORICAL ARCHIVES: Harabec Weathers, the infamous "Phoenix," resigned his commission following a closed-door session with His Imperial Majesty.

2828.0170 - Martian strike resolved peacefully.
IMPERIAL POLICE (Mars): Imperial Police peacefully faced down striking miners at a Tharsis City facility on Mars yesterday. Several miners were cited and released.
2828.0174 - Imp Lice brutally crushed a peaceful strike!
VOICE OF FREE MARS: "Cited and released." Who are they kidding? The Imp Lice left 'em bleeding in the street after "citing" them with stunstaves!
2828.0200 - Cybrid signals detected. Do not panic. Exercise caution.
IMPERIAL NAVY: Cybrid transmissions have been detected in near-Venus space! All ships on Venusian approach vectors are warned to exercise extreme caution!
2828.0220 - Cybrids. Riiight. How conveniently distracting...!
VOICE OF FREE MARS: Ooooo. Cybrids. Citizens, don't pay any attention to the tyrant behind the curtain. Pay attention to the big scary Cybrids.
IMPERIAL NAVY: Seventh and Ninth Strike Fleets to hold maneuvers off Venus this week. TDF is confident in its ability to defend Imperial citizenry.
2828.1001 - TDF reassures public as it confirms location of Cybrid signals.

2828.1002 - Mission: Finish off a downed Imperial cargo ship.
Mission: Vulture Duty
Location: Mole Deep
Campaign: Yoke Offensive
Date: 2828.1002
Briefing:
Rise and shine, duster. We got ourselves a situation.
Some of our boys did a half-ass job scorchin' an Imperial Police flyer that was sniffin' around where it shouldn't have been. The Lice pilot managed to set down way outta their range, and there's a good chance the pilot saw something he shouldn't have. So you got the clean-up job, you roj? Locate and destroy the flyer. One of the Garson tunnels opens near the crash site. I'll stay in touch through tactical communications. The Imps have probably scrambled salvage rigs by now, so move quick. And keep your ears open to the Imperial radio frequencies. OK, move it out!
Success:
Not bad! This operation confirms what we've been sayin' about you: You're one helluva pilot. Seems Mole Command agrees. You're transferred to Harabec's crew. Supposedly Harabec's from Earth. Heard he was in some kind of trouble there, but he's the man here on Mars. Best field commander in the show. Congrats, duster, you're runnin' with the big dogs now.
Failure:
Mission failure. The Imperials control the crash site.
If you are receiving this and can comply, return to the access tunnel at Nav Bravo.
Repeat: This mission is a failure....
