[b]Nanobots[/b] A nanobots swarm has found the system where the Ceramus is reverse-engineering the antiproton streamer, the [i]Freidsmekalre[/i]'s wreckage is being held in the system. Preliminary scans indicate that the system in protected by at least sixty vessels, and that the Ceramus have cracked the protective shell of the antiproton streamers. Unfortunately, this activity was not performed in-atmosphere, as such an event would have destroyed an entire continent. The location was sent back to Lakfakalle when the entire swarm jumped back, having been ordered not to alert the Ceramus. [b]Message to the Equestrian Empire[/b] "We have discovered the facility where the Ceramus are reverse-engineering the antiproton streamer device. We are planning an attack once we expand our fleet sufficiently, we request assistance in this attack. Any vessels you commit should report to Lakfakalle and land in the ocean or hover in the sky, the enemy now has near-lightspeed bombardment devices. The shields of Lakfakalle should protect landed or hovering ships from any kinetic bombardment." [b]Military Expansion[/b] The ten new warships have been completed! They are being kept in orbit of Lakfakalle, waiting for the order to attack the Ceramus. With the fighters having been proven in battle, fifteen more have been produced, bringing the total to 20. [b]Weapons Development[/b] Research has begun on a new weapon designed for taking out shields, based off of the shield breaker used by rockets to pass through the Lakfakalle planetary shield. Of course, any other species would know it as a laser. [b]New Ship Designs[/b] To complement the fighters, the LCF has designed a carrier vessel of sorts. It is quite a large ship, capable of carrying ninety fighters. The vessel will also be armed with one spinal antiproton lance running the length of the ship, multiple electromagnetically-propelled flak cannons, 10 antiproton streamers (5 on each side), and 10 projectile weapons capable of switching between kinetic and explosive ammunition (5 on each side). To be honest, it's a fusion of carrier and warship. Probably why the new class is being called the [i]Freidsmekalre War Carrier[/i], the first part being in honor of the crew of the warship [i]Freidsmekalre[/i]. A prototype is now under construction, until completion, fighters will simply dock with the standard warships.
