Commander,

The upcoming leg of the UURC’s path has generated a DAYSHOCK alert, which we’ve verified with lightcone interpolation assets.

Before you fire off a response, this is not another cancellation.  Between you and me, I believe the previous restrictions generated something of a black eye on those responsible.  You are not being leashed this time.

However, you need to understand that this is not just Pantheon activity.  We estimate a high likelihood of some manner of Regime interference as well.  I know you’ve seen action on the Western Front, so I don’t have to tell you how bad that can be.

Their local assets are Fourth Fist, the soul fuckers.  They remain under a gag order.  No communication is permitted.  I shouldn’t have to tell you that if these individuals show up your priority becomes their elimination.

In light of the probable situation, and in particular the probable presence of the Ultrahuman terrorist known as Preventer, you are granted a moratorium on the usual restrictions for Eastern Front equipment.  We want them gone.

I know you haven’t operated in an unrestricted capacity before, please review the guidelines and respond with any and all questions that you may have.  A number of your subordinates have the requisite training, please get them to share their experiences.

Good luck, and good hunting

Hey guys, I’m heading out on vacation over the holidays, so we’ll be missing this Wednesday’s update.  The next Sunday one should be out a day or so late, and we should be uninterrupted after that.

I’ve also got an interesting idea for Sunday updates in 2019, which came to me after playing around on the Quests subforum on Sufficient Velocity.  It more or less amounts to a choose your own adventure story, more details next Sunday update.

Thanks for reading and mash that vote button at the top of yo- *dragged off by hook*
