WAR!

Hostilities escalated today at 10/08/2015 at 16:50 into a full conflict. Forces from Pirates fighting against elements of Sniv, has seen 17 units destroyed and over 0 facilities left in ruin on Verdte I. The GTC has established special sanctions for safe transport of key personnel during the conflict.

Citizens of Verdte I are terrified and left wondering what the future holds for the jobs, economy and well-being of Verdte I and its colonies. With such catastrophic death tolls that are only promising to rise as the fighting continues, there is enormous uncertainty in the air.
