Cal,
This is getting out of hand. While you were engaging the Kong at Memnon, the Marauders launched a full-scale attack on Freetown; the Kong's home settlement. With most of their offensive capability away, the attack turned into a bloody massacre.
It seems that the Marauders have been playing games with the Kong. The Marauders have been attacking them using ships in the livery of police vessels and carrying police IFF codes. It is not surprising that the Kong felt the way they did.
Fortunately (if anything that came out this whole mess can be described as fortunate) a Special Investigations scout ship was in the area during the assault. It was able to confirm that the attackers were indeed Marauders.
We analysed their assault. The Marauders launched their attack ships from a large converted megafreighter. This base ship seemed to be equipped with extremely powerful LDS-inhibit field-generator. It looks like the Marauders have gotten hold of some fancy new equipment and changed their tactics.
We need to be on our guard, Cal. The Kong have been decimated, we cannot allow the likes of this to happen again.
