MAR 2, 3000


Reminder to all major alliances, we currently have a small amount of people trying to help make our news better, but without YOUR participation the news may appeared to be “favored” to the certain people and alliances who are in contact with us. I think that is easy to understand, if you tell us your side we report it that way: if not it seems that we are telling one sided stories that may not be completely factual.

The Battle of 4408

A week and a half ago, a huge massacre occured between HoA and the The Forsaken, and friends Admiral Fleet. The fight dealt a total of 12 pods which leaves us curious was the price of battle worth it? The Forsaken's forces won the big part of this, getting 8 kills on HoA. Horsemens defended at best the planet, but took a lot of damage. We can also see in news, a kill from Kaliban on Rasputin in sector 0.... Does it mean a new sector 0 saga or just a wierd error?


Federal Beacon Areas = Mine Free Zones?

Some recent news shows Musealot, leader of Anla’Shok, pushing for a simple rule of “No mines around Federal Beacons”, or if mines have their expiry 1/5th to 1/8th that of mines away from Fed. Space. Musealot is also one of the founders of the “Free Trade Zone” from Famine, which was enforced by A’S and Willowstrance. With the recent upgrades to the mines (from the XM-2997 to XZM-3k) they have caused a major stir, and more problems to the peaceful traders who use Fed. Space as a home. We will soon see if Musealot is able to put a dent in the “Against the spirit of the game” activities, by slowing this down or bringing it to a halt. If this venture fails perhaps we will see A’S, or other alliances, rise to the occasion of enforcing “No mines around Fed. Space”.


The Battle of 1278

1278 was a Forsaken stronghold in the human galaxy, until few nights ago. A joint fleet between Anla’Shok and the Horsemen of the Apocalypse came in full force to terrorize the planet and the rest of the Human galaxy. The planet has sustained mammoth amounts of damage, it is reported that the almost 12 hours it has been under siege have destroyed 9 levels of planetary defense, and all turrets on the planet have been destroyed. The news started with the death of Catronia (HoA) to the planet, finished with Deathfire (The Rangers [A’Ss training alliance]) being killed by paulee (TF) while TF was taking the planet back, others who took pods were Killashandra Rae (TF), SpamBlade (TF), Imhotep (TF), Turbo Pig (TF) and Jarlax (TF). 1278 is now a planet which will most likely be razed repeatedly over the next week to destroy defenses, and HoA will probably try to make sure that they annihilate the chances of TF using this as a base in the near future.


New Trial Space Merchant Lottery

Yes, you read it right, in Millennium Game ISN will be trying to setup an official lottery. Ticket cost is 1,000,000, for 1 chance to win, only 1 ticket per person please. The total of tickets sold will be given 100% to the winner. They will be held weekly on Sunday’s. The way to enter is simple, setup an account just for the lottery, and send the account number and password to ISN5@hotmail.com. The way we will decide the winner is dependant on amount of participants, I have a “random dice creator” I will enter the amount of accounts and payments I received and make a die that has an equal number of sides. The winner will be chosen by the number of the account, the lowest numbered account will be side “1” on the die and the highest numbered account obviously the last number in the sequence. Example: If I sell 79 tickets I will make a die with 79 sides, then spin the die once. Pretend the result is 31 I will then look at all the accounts (chart them out from lowest to highest) count to #31 and then I will post the traders name on the Sunday ISN report and put the 79 million into the same account they sent me. The goal of ISN is to be able to give over 100 Million credits away weekly but that is not possible without YOUR PARTICIPATION, after all what is 1,000,000 credits?
