Planet: Corellia System and Deep Space
Story: (Written by the Galactic News Agency, Ramona doesn't write IC).
Last night the Sector fleet of the Galactic Empire launched another offensive against the rebel naval forces. Starting in the Corellia System and continuing into Deep Space, an Imperial task force hunted key rebel ships, both squadron leaders and capital command ships.
The task force suffered a setback right at the start, when one of their own command ships was lost to a rebel counter attack in the midst of wide-spread ion storms that sent ships and fighters of both sides crashing by the dozens.
But the pilots and crew of the Imperial Fleet rallied, fixed the system issues and struck out at the Alliance forces in Deep Space, destroying two command ships and one squadron commander in short order without losing any more key ships of their own.
The following video was released by the local sector fleet command and shows part of the battles from last night:

IMC Convoy escapes from pirates
Date: 300111
Planet: Tatooine/Corellia System/Ord Mantell
Region: Farpoint Valley/Nova Orion Station
Story: (Written by the Galactic News Agency, Ramona doesn't write IC).
Last week the Intergalactic Mining Corporation hired two known and respected veteran pilots, Dee'lin Sarlo, captain of the YT-1300-class "Phoenix", and Athmis Thewix, captain of the "CORT Starflare", another YT-1300, to ship ore from Farpoint Valley, Tatooine, to the Nova Orion Station in Ord Mantell. Falcun Nix, Britney and Therrid acted as gunners, Barrenger Fynar and Yescek Shadowlight flew escort, in a Vaksai and Belbullab-22
The ships were attacked in the Corellia System near Talus Secta by two pirates. In the ensuing fight both escorts enganged the pirates, allowing the two freighters to escape without taking any damage. Barrenger Fynar's ship was damaged and required repairs at Corellia Orbital afterwards while Yescek Shadowlight's fighter lost its weapons but could disengage and follow the freighters. One pirate was shot down while the other escaped.
IMC's stock rose 1,5% at the Coronet Stock Exchange following the news.

Firefight in Mos Eisley
Date: 300111
Planet: Tatooine/Corellia System/Ord Mantell
Region: Farpoint Valley/Nova Orion Station
Story: (Written by the Galactic News Agency, Ramona doesn't write IC).
Two days ago Mos Eisley saw a very violent incident - a literal firefight - near the local theatre when an humanoid sentient in full heavy armor attacked a group of people with a flame thrower. Most of them fled, many of them wounded.
Among the fleeing people was a wounded man who apparently had been attacked, robbed and kidnapped by the group before, using this opportunity to escape. It is not known if the flame thrower wielder was attacking out of revenge for a similar event in the past, or if this was related to gang conflicts.

Nova Orion Station upgrades defenses
Date: 270111
Planet: Ord Mantell
Region: Nova Orion Station
Story: (Written by the Galactic News Agency, Ramona doesn't write IC).
After increasing problems with pirates attacking ships near or even at the Nova Orion Shipyards, the Nova Orion Station's defenses have been upgraded. A control tower was added with better sensors to detect incoming pirates early, as were gun turrets for point defense.
Both additions were tested this week already when several pirates kept attacking both ships and the station itself until they were driven off by turret fire and intercepting mercenary fighters such as Barrenger Fynar's latest Krayt Dancer.

Imperial Troops massing in West Carova
Date: 250111
Planet: Tatooine
Region: West Carova
Story: (Written by the Galactic News Agency, Ramona doesn't write IC).
According to the latest reports West Carova has seen a significant increase of imperial troopers lately. It seems the imperial garrison there was reinforced after a recent attack by insurgent.
If this is just a temporary surge or a more permanent deployment and whether this will increase the town's security or attract more attacks by Alliance forces still remains to be seen.

Last night both Corellia and Naboo saw extended battles over two military installations. Imperial forces secured both locations and then held out against multiple rebel assaults for hours. The rebel attackers managed to briefly drive out the defenders at either base after an hour, but the Imperial forces reacted swiftly and their immediate counter-attacks drove the rebels away in each location.
After almost two hours the rebels withdrew, leaving the imeprial forces holding the field.

Arklem Qeq at large again!
Date: 220111
Planet: Ord Mantell
Region: Nova Orion Station
Story: (Written by the Galactic News Agency, Ramona doesn't write IC).
Arklem Qeq is at large again! The infamous pirate man had been arrested last week by the Imperial Garrison of West Carova, but he was spotted last night, landing his YT-1300 "Blazing Claw" on in Nova Orion Station in Ord Mantell.
According to reports the pirate walked down the ramp, staring down the blasters of the imperial troops and station security facing him, and demanded a meeting with the station's administrator, Iskar Kreed, to clear their "past issues".
The pirate did get a private meeting, and later left the station without being troubled by security. So far nothing is known about what happened in that meeting, but speculation is rampant.
