Spassky's Inheritance, Mikunn
PRESS RELEASE
FEB 5, 3301 - Spassky's Inheritance, Mikunn: The Dukes of Mikunn, in their mercy, have ended the blockade of Gabriel Station in HR 7327. The sanctions successfully weakened the dictatorial Law Party, leading to a substantial loss of influence, thus placing the station on the verge of regime change. Independent commanders supporting the Dukes, known as the "Knights of Mikunn" will shift their efforts to carrying out Missions for the Dukes. These errands of mercy will bring order and a sense of normalcy back to the people of Gabriel Station in these troubled times.
Ships will once more be allowed to dock at Gabriel Station, but are still discouraged from accepting Law Party contracts. For the safety of all private traders, their Graces the Dukes suggest staying clear of HR 7327 due to ongoing civil unrest and limited hostilities. Traffic should be routed to the neighboring systems of Sukua, Kwatee and of course, Mikunn. Commanders interested in toppling the dictatorship of the Law Party should make their way to Mikunn and contact Commanders Lucifer Wolfgang, Calomiriel, or his Lordship the Count of Monte Fisto.
The expansion of the Dukes of Mikunn into HR 7327, and subsequent gains in the system have been accomplished through the support of many independent pilots. The reins of power of HR 7327 shifting to the Dukes of Mikunn will mark the first time in recent history a minor faction has successfully expanded from its home system, and taken over a neighbor. Many say this is an impossible task. The Knights of Mikunn wish to prove them wrong.
