Jumpgate Evolution: US-TRI is Derailed Once Again

At 6:30 PM Pulsar Time, a convoy bearing overproduced Quantar commods was assembled for transport to Hyperial. This was to be a gesture of goodwill on the part of TRI. TRI Marshals had a small force ready and we were to be additionally escorted by members of Synergy and JOURINTHEWAY. Additionally, we were helped by LionDog of (ArtysInc.) as he was kind enough to help haul in his NOOK. We had a combined amount of Germanium, Gallium, Indium, Uranium, Moly, Laser Comps, and Zinc totaling @2000 units. With our escorts we left on an announced mission to Hyperial. In Hyperion Gate, we were ambushed by ISU forces. At the time I was not worried, because I had the considerably skilled, and more numerous forces of Synergy and others at our side. I was wrong. Synergy did not fire a shot at ISU. By the time we reached GVB we were fully in the custody of ISU. We were forced to reroute to GBS through unreg space, where all of the commods were offloaded by ISU.

We were betrayed by Synergy and others. We were ambushed by ISU. The betrayal hurts most of all. The joy of unification in purpose during the rescue at SUMMER was still fresh in my mind. No matter Synergy's selfish pursuits, they have helped TRI in their own way. I can no longer say that.

I would expect no less than what I got from ISU. Organized crime has long sought to cast it self in a proletariat light, claiming concern for the common people. All of the unemployed Hyperions will not be at your next rally, I assure you. The 2000 units of commods we dropped were only a blip on the hoard of commodities you are hoarding at GBS. They were absent in Hyperial. Your grievance, or so you told me, is with the government of Hyperial. But today you affected its people.

Hyperial, we have been prevented from helping you at this time. This will not stop us. I understand your resistance to TRI, but please realize that it was anti-TRI forces that stopped the aid being brought by TRI forces. Aid you so desperately need. Please rectify the grievance that stands between ISU and your society. This will strengthen our ability to help you in turn.

To any squads loyal to TRI, or who feel compassion for Hyperial: We need your help. This is a goal worth fighting for, and sadly it it seems to have come to that. Please contact me. Together we can strengthen TRI and help a wounded nation's people.
