News Stories

In-character news and updates from all over the Star Army universe!
A ID-SOL appears on the screen and walks up, in a totally barren white room. He waves, speaking in a light tone which seems weird for his size. "Hello. The system is back on line. The device has not been modified." The picture would suddenly chance to that of... Well, the universe, suddenly zooming in and about, eyeing planets, moon, and so on. All to the sound of rock and roll in the back ground, and then... a Flute... That had a techno feel to it. Then the image would be changed to a news room with a News desk with a monitor and a human woman, although the exact race isn't exactly tellable... Not a neko, though. The Monitor, though, Had a ... Chibi. Truthfully it was something like MEGAMI, a civilian version of the same sort of...
A subspace radio transmission is being broadcast throughout much of known space, apparently relayed between hundreds of ships and then broadcast into the void of space for all to hear. There also have been reports of several worms are also spreading throughout a significant number of civilian and entertainment networks, carrying a data packet with the video file attached. At first there is no video feed; merely a woman's voice. "To all receiving vessels: Flash traffic, priority zero one three. I say again, all receiving vessels set this broadcast as highest traffic priority." A video feed begins to transmit, showing a young woman in a pressure suit sitting on a pile of rubble. A crumbling city situated inside a large cavern can be...
Empress Motoyoshi Katsuko and Star Army Command announced today the promotion of Shimizu Akina, former second in command of the Fifth Expeditionary Fleet and lover of the new Empress, as the Taisho of the Fourth Standard Fleet. Palace Spokespersons have informed us, that Shimizu, who was recently revived and reinstated into the Star Army of YAmatai, was selected for her extensive and decorated record. The posting bases the new Taisho out of Yamatai, allowing Shimizu to stay close to her Imperial Love. Rumor has it we may see some new Imperial younglings sometime in the near future.
The newscast opened in its standard manner, lots of bright colors, heavy metal, and scantily-clad women. It then focused on the regular pretty blonde girl who delivered most of the NNN's newscasts. Beside her was the super-imposed video feed standard to news shows, showing a large, smoking crater, flanked with burning forests, a semi-obliterated water tower, and devastated highways. The view was aerial, probably taken from a helicopter or cheap drone. Debris, smoke, and fire were still all very present. The newswoman began speaking. "A small-scale atomic explosion rocked a Rok'Veru suburb today. The area was undergoing road construction and real estate development when the blast occurred, destroying a large area in the process." The...
Nearly a month ago, the KdIS did a report on colonization effort in the newly discovered Northern Sector. We at the station would like to congratulate the brave individuals who have signed up for the adventure of a life time and wish them happiness in their new homes. Reports from Himmel der Bergleute have started to flood the Jaspis System with tales of large deposits of raw materials to fuel the private industries. Though there are no planets at all in the system, the massive asteroid and dust fields of Himmel will be a great boon to the economy. The Meltra System, on the other hand, does contain three planets and has one habitable planet out of the three. Colonized by 20 million citizens, Meltra III is claimed to be a world much...
