The Fight For HIP 106072

Another system has fallen to Archon. Within the last week Imperial and Kumo Crew commanders faced off in a battle that incurred staggering losses for both fleets, and the decimation of Hip 106072. For some time the Empire had been tracking undisclosed packages dropped off by those loyal to Delaine. Then it all came to a head.

As with all war, it was difficult to track the ebb and flow of battle as it unfolded. News reports were unclear. For weeks Archon's expansions had been stymied and blocked. Rumor had it that some of the Crew were becoming discontent, so at the back of everyone's mind was the question of the day: would losing HIP be the straw to break the camel's back?

As the fog of war cleared what remained was a system devoid of the millions who fled, yet somehow standing. It had a new master. Archon claimed another scalp and the Imperial Command shouldered the responsibility of yet another system succumbing to piracy.
