Galnet News Digest

3310 has been a busy year. We started the year in the middle of an alien invasion, with the Bubble occupied by eight seemingly impregnable Titan motherships. By the end of the year, we had not only defeated that invasion, we had also gained four new ships, a faster frame shift drive and a completely new political system.This is the Galnet News Digest review of the year 3310.

Sometimes the news isn't the best way to tell a story. Sometimes you need the benefit of hindsight to see the sweep of a narrative, and to understand causes and consequences. This is the complete story of the Azimuth Saga, a story that has affected us all.

In this week's news, we have a look at a recently leaked picture of a forthcoming ship. We examine why Pranav Antal's bid to outsmart the Sirius Corporation seems doomed to failure. But first, it's time to earn your rewards, as a defenceless Titan Thor nears destruction.

In this week's news, the focus moves to Thor. An old and confused politician doesn't know if they're ready for office. And we hear a personal account of the destruction of Titan Indra.

9 Jul 3310: In this week's news, we explain why Indra took so long to defeat. Ram Tah refuses to modify Azimuth weapons. And Prime Minister Mahon explains why we're stronger together.

In this week's news, it's a Titan-goes-boom week. And we're patiently waiting for the Type-8, two more new ships, and Powerplay 2.0.

In this week's news, Winters is still coming. We wonder if we'll get a community goal in 3310, and we ask the most important question: is Salvation really dead?

In last week's news, the Anti-Xeno Initiative declares war on humanity. The Thargoid War has changed. And the Pilots' Federation zookeepers might, just might, be about to give us a glimpse of the Lakon Type-8.

In the week before last's news, we're approaching the half-way mark of Titan destruction, a commander is accused of making a mess at Beagle Point, and not one but two commanders have completed the Hutton Run in less than 30 minutes.

In this somewhat delayed episode, DeLacy is accused of disloyalty, the Thargoids bounce back from a mysterious weakness, and the Cobra Mk IV officially doesn't exist.

In this week's news, Titan Hadad is a long way off, in more ways than one. And we deep-dive into some of the amazing new pay-to-win ships that the Pilots' Federation might be tempted to put on sale in the ARX store.

In this week's news, there are a couple of days left to help Achilles create their new Titan drive, we're still more than week away from the inevitable destruction of Titan Oya, and it's probably three months before we get to see what's happening with Powerplay.

In this week's news, it looks likely that Leigong may be destroyed on the same night Canonn plans to light up the Galaxy with Guardian beacons. But first, we examine the twinkling remains of trailblazing Titan Taranis.

In this week's news, with the focus moving to Titan Leigong, we look back to Taranis, forward to the future, and consider the ethics of inter-species warfare.

With the anti-Titan nanite torpedoes about to be released on Monday, it's perhaps a good time to take stock of some of the stories that have been forgotten about since last year. What happened to Salvation? To the Thargoid-whisperer D2? How are those people rescued from the Titans and returned into their communities by the Alliance getting on?

In this week's news, President Winters's family fall victim to the Rhea earthquake, and Aegis develops a torpedo-launched version of the Proteus Wave.

In this week's news, the CEO of Sirius alleges sabotage, and an obscure threat is isolated in transmissions.

A review of the events of 3309.The Thargoid invasion fleet started arriving in November 3308, as a response to Salvation's firing of the Proteus Wave in August that year. It was in 3309 that humanity learned to confront the alien invaders and turn the war around. Aside from the Thargoid invasion, 3309 has seen a Federal Presidential Election, concerns over the lack of a successor to the Emperor, calls for an end to the Sirius Alliance defence pact, a scare over madness spread by radio waves, and mounting evidence that Salvation may not be as dead as we had assumed.

In this week's news, Seo Jin-Ae meets the Simguru, a lot of commanders can't buy the modules they unlocked, and we compare this year's presents against Sandra Corr's last year, and the Winking Cat's from the year before.

In this week's news, nearly half of the Thargoid Spire Sites have been shut down. And Nakato Kaine's protest against the Sirius Corporation has been a massive flop.
