Powerplay Cycle 23: Kaine's Reach (A Swords of Makhai Update)

MAKH say "Hell Nah!" in Hun Nal Yeh​


This cycle witnessed one of the largest military operations in MAKH history!

The unsuspecting system of Hun Nal Yeh saw significant acquisition activity earlier in the week, reportedly carried out by The Silverbacks squadron in the name of Edmund Mahon.

MAKH Commanders mobilised en masse, hoping to make up the deficit with Mahon having already put up serious numbers before they'd even arrived in system.

Our reporter managed to catch up with Senior Leadership and Vorpal Wing stalwart CMDR Chronosbane, during post-flight checks on his new Gutamaya Corsair:

"We started this conflict 400,000 merits behind, and ended it 320,000 ahead against a motivated enemy that fought us every step of the way. The second day they kept pace, but we pulled away by the end of the night."

As the menacing green glow from his customised thrusters finally waned, he added:

"This was an absolutely incredible performance, a GREAT test of our new Corsair fleet, and tons of f***ing fun!"

Clearly headed for the station bar, he was asked one final question about the tactical significance of Hun Nal Yeh - presumably a system of vital importance given the turn out and intensity:

"Significant? Hell nah! Yeah... we just love a good scrap!"

This unexpected power grab within an established ARRC system certainly raised some eyebrows. However, this seems to have been an isolated incident and isn't expected to damage Mahon / Kaine relations moving forward.

In other news, Kaine moved past Denton Patreus in the rankings in what was a shocking result for the Imperial Admiral. Patreus systems were said to have been methodically undermined by Archon Delaine operatives, who hit key targets with a series of settlement raids.

A hollow victory for Kaine perhaps - but a victory nonetheless. Time will tell how Patreus will respond or whether Kaine can close the gap on Antal over the coming weeks.

GGs to the venerable Silverbacks! They put up a good fight and even took out a few of our guys. I look forward to more friendly skirmishes in the future.
