Report Filed By: Silent_Truth

These past few days have been a mystery to all of us here at Datanet, we have been receiving reports left right and centre of Dreghklar fleet movements, it seems that after their recent defeats at the hands of ... well ... everyone, they called in for some serious back up, and it has arrived. These new Dreghklar fleets were detected by our probes moving into the system roughly 2 days ago, and we have been attempting to track their movements from our sources, however, with the Dreghklar doing their very best to cover their tracks, this has not been an easy task. Our sources from within the Rixian Unity have reported that they have been shoring up their defences in preparation for an attack, so perhaps the timeless feud that has been occurring between the Dreghklar and Rixians will spill over into our space once again.

Things seem to be looking up for humanity with the recent defeat of the Technoflux and now this inter alien war, perhaps we humans will finally have the sense to work together to at least eliminate the alien threats to our existence, before inevitably returning to our squabbles in this solar system.

We've been keeping an eye out for the IC's renegade Technoflux project since their defeat at the hands of the Ga'Tarran with little news, until now! Our scanners picked up a conflict somewhere in deep space. The energy signals were defiantly BIOS in origin, which appeared to be retreating from a conflict with Mastermind's AI.

We can only assume that TF used everything they had trying to secure a base, and a BIOS one will certainly prove beneficial.

We can only assume the BIOS won't be taking this defeat lightly and although they've not been aggressive as of late, we can only expect to see them in upcoming conflicts! I wonder what the Iron Coalition makes of all this...

Well since you asked, I shall answer, certain files have been unclassified regarding the incident in order for me to make this report. Whilst taking the Dreghklar salvage back to a secret facility at an undisclosed location, we discovered that we could integrate our new prototype weapon systems with the advanced Dreghklar technology to create the ultimate fighting machine. One that could be produced easily and used to give us a great tactical advantage over our enemies.

We began the work right away, however our lead scientist working on the project had certain ... doubts, about it's potential use as a weapon, we did not realise how much influence he had exerted onto the project's AI until it was too late. The Technoflux were successfully used in a number of smaller skirmishes against other forces with a great deal of success, so we decided to transfer the project over to official military hands, this was when the "Mastermind" integrated himself into the Technoflux AI before we could remove him.

The AI units then broke through our defence forces with ease and proceeded into outer space, the Coalition has not regrets about this project, even though we sustained considerable losses, the Technoflux seem to be inflicting considerable damage to our enemies as we had always intended. Our scientists are currently working on a way to reassert control over the Technoflux units by crushing the Mastermind.
