(Original draft, see link for in-game variant) New Imperial Port
Lavigny's Legion, after a highly successful campaign to have independent pilots assist in the construction of new Capital ships, has had its own system of Carthage become the home port of two new Majestic Class Interdictors. The Aisling's Hope and the Cerberus now grace the system of Carthage with all of the majesty that the Imperial capital class of ships' namesake implies. The cause of this development can be partially traced to a recent push by Legion officials to have Carthage become a more prominent military port of the Empire.
Praetor Imperius II, one of Lavigny's Legion's head officers and a locally prominent Imperial political figure, has made a statement about the presence of the new ships in the system, saying, "Carthage is becoming a new citadel for the Imperial Navy. The system's strength and range of its military and political projection is rivaled only by its stunning beauty." Lavigny's Legion has been working hard to expand its sphere of influence for some time, and the mere presence of these ships in Carthage will likely have a notable effect on those efforts. As the Legion continues to expand into the systems around Carthage, expect to see continued growth of Imperial military installations.
