Si vis pacem, para bellum.

To be secure in peace is to be prepared for war. It's a statement that has resonated and been proven, throughout human history, time and again, since one of the great thinkers of Earth's ancient empires first articulated the principle.I visited Obsidian Orbital mere days before it was attacked, and the system was already lousy with Thargoid scouts at that point. During the Outer Rim Expedition, my path back home brushed the inner edge of the Pleiades Sector, and there were more bugs in those two systems than a dive bar in a pirate port.
I've been telling everyone I knew to prepare since then. I think my fellow Commanders thought me a crackpot at first, but the evidence continues to mount. The Thargoids are coming, and soon, the storm will be upon us.
All we can do is be ready.
My Type 10 has been completed, and is the best weapon for this war that I can possibly field.
I never asked for this, but if they dare to attack the Empire, they will pay for their audacity.
