Lorn
Today training exercises are still going on all over the capitol system by order of Field Marshal Majere. He has stated that the public�s safety resides on everyone�s ability to protect themselves from any unwanted attacks. Although there is a minority of people who oppose such a disruption in their jobs everyone seems to agree that these training exercises are needed. Field Marshal Majere has not stated when these training exercises will end. Rumors are spreading that a Clan Panther attack is immanent which is why FM Majere has ordered the exercises. So far I have been unable to confirm or deny these rumors.
Erewhon
A day that will go down in the history books. Captain Perkins has escaped from prison by a group of aggressors from Clan Panther. A note that was left for the reporters is as follows, �I will make the imperial scum pay for what they have done to my family and friends.� So far I have been unable to contact a Clan Panther neither representative nor an imperial officer in charge of the incident. Not only did Clan Panther capture a transport but also a frigate that was patrolling the area was almost destroyed. If it wasn�t for the last minute showing of an unknown Navy Starfighter Squadron the frigate would have been lost forever.
Gracchus
Today a car bomb went off outside of the governor�s palace. Dozens of tourists and passerby�s have been killed or injured in todays tragic incident. Governor Prok, after requesting support from the local Army post has found out that these recent attacks have come from the pirate clan Panther. High General Spartacus has authorized the increase of stormtrooper support to help increase security in the system.
Rilke
Rilke has received it�s first attack against one of their largest banks today. A group of 4 people were immediately captured while trying to blast their way into the vault through the alley. Not only were all 4 individuals arrested but a bank manager �Tolk Gibsic� has also been arrested.
Rodin
While under intense guard Lord Blackstake was murdered while on his way to his trial. A group of 6 people were seen opening fire from a number of positions that also killed 10 police personnel. All 6 attackers got away. High General Spartacus has sent a team of commandos to investigate the attack.
Vonsam
Under intense security the pirate clan Panther has captured a number of supplies. Food shortages from all over the system are being reported. The SSD Mustang is on the scene and has authorized a squadron to escort each and every cargo group entering and leaving the system.
Vol
Fighting in the Vol System is currently stable with no side winning over the other. Rumors are spreading that this is due to Clan Panthers attacks against the supplies into the area.

NI
In todays news Grand Master Sauron arrived back to the SoH palace. Although I could not get an interview from him I did notice that he looked banged up pretty badly. Rumors are spreading that the New Imperium is planning an attack against these unknown aggressors.

This is Kathline Turner with the VE Daily signing off until tomorrow. Thank you and have a nice day everyone.

Of course, all the training in the world can't keep Lorn 4 safe from us. Don't worry, if we want to we will attack that planet. Right now we have bigger fish to fry.

Oh yeah. Tell your Vonsam system inhabitants thanx for the food. WE've been a little short on it ourselves.
