Attention!
Analysis of access of so-called ‘Miss Summer’ showed a hack in our security systems. All access codes have been modified. All tasks from ‘Miss Summer’ have been cancelled!
As a result of an internal investigation among the mercenaries, career officers and employees of Imperial Spacefleet we identified a terrorist group. According to indirect data, several senior members of the Federation and Jericho were also part of this terrorist group. A certain ‘Miss Summer’ was at the head of the group. The group was able to crack the encryption of our security services and handed out official jobs and contracts, promising access to the latest ship ‘Nyx’ in case of successful execution. The group has been fully disclosed, but some members managed to escape. Miss Summer also fled. At the moment, her whereabouts are unknown.

Warning! All mercenaries carrying out tasks for the impostor Summer! A small batch of the new ships ‘Nyx’ has been prepared for the mercenaries. It was decided to allow access to the ship to those who unknowingly carried out assignments for Summer. The ship has been tested by UMC tech specialists and is fully ready for use. We call upon mercenaries to help us in apprehending the fugitives. There is a hefty reward for capture or elimination of Summer’s followers.
In the near future the sector administration and military units will be very busy preparing for the big upgrade of all systems, which will take a couple of weeks. At this time, the only hope for the fight against Summer’s terrorists is you.

All pilots have a chance to encounter the followers in PvP battles, in PvE missions, and even in open space! We updated the software of all ships. All the fugitives will be automatically marked on your screen with a special marker. As we learned from the transcribed records, this is the sign common among Summer's terrorist group. If you see the ships marked with this sign — you have to destroy them immediately! **The hunt for Miss Summer's followers** Pilots can take part in the hunt for Miss Summer's followers in PvP battles, as well as PvE and Invasion mode: _PvP-battles.
