Last message from the defenders describes crisis.

[Voice transcription]
"This is going out live because I don't know how long before they take control of the Gate! The Zigany have sent in several .... JERDA'S MASK!!! Sorry, that one was close. They appear to have a ton of functional Gate breaching machines that look like armored web trains...They crashed through the damn Gate and hit the soldiers there like a battering ram! And then another one came through, and another and another!

The square around the gate has been destroyed and everyone down there looks dead. All these troops just started unloading from the trains and they were getting mowed down pretty good by the remaining weapons platforms in the gate square but then these...these things came out and they can't be hit by bullets! I've never seen so many mutants in one fight! They've got these huge guns and ... SONOFANIMPERIALWHOREMONGER!!! Move, MOVE they're coming this .... "

  1. Can anyone confirm that bit about the Forlorn Hope? Surely event he zigany aren't dumb enough to attack the Tribes and add another front to their war!

  2. SO.. Lemme get this straight:
    The Ahramnhi, along with their minion Zigani, want to control the genetic destiny of the Fringe, so they're sending in a big flying train to break through the gate barrier and smash into the planet.

    Oh no... that's not phallic at all.

  3. Yes I can confirm the Forlorn Hope did crash the Taranis gate, but we are fine here.
