WAR!

Hostilities escalated today at 01/08/2016 at 16:42 into a full conflict. Forces from Amerlain fighting against elements of Pirates, has seen 0 units destroyed and over 1 facilities left in ruin on Holplo I. The GTC has established special sanctions for safe transport of key personnel during the conflict.

Citizens of Holplo I are terrified and left wondering what the future holds for the jobs, economy and well-being of Holplo 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.
