*The | *The Alexandria megaship has been warned that it faces destruction if it attempts to travel to any [[Federation|Federal]] system. The [[Aegis]]-owned vessel triggered a full-scale [[Thargoid]] [[incursion]] when it arrived in the HIP 16538 system. This seemed to be a reaction to the huge quantities of [[Guardian]] artefacts currently stored within its cargo holds. Captain [[Jacob Morales]], the Alexandria's commander, broadcast this message: "The [[Federal Navy]] has instructed us not to resume our scheduled journey to [[Sol]] or enter any system within the Federation. They're treating us like a plague ship! I understand their concern that more Thargoids will follow us, but we have several thousand crewmembers who need to reach safe harbour." A strategy was outlined by Admiral [[Aden Tanner]], chief military liaison for Aegis: "We are attempting to clear the HIP 16538 system of Thargoid vessels, greatly aided by independent pilots and anti-xeno squadrons. The megaship will then jump to a system with a minimal population, where we will offload its cargo." Aegis has reiterated that the option to jettison the Alexandria's cargo is a last resort, since the Guardian artefacts are vital to its research programme and cost billions of credits to acquire.<ref>[https://community.elitedangerous.com/galnet/uid/60ab949adb826a132b26b034 GalNet: Federation Refuses Entry to 'Plague Ship']</ref> | ||

*<nowiki>*</nowiki>Pilots Federation ALERT*<br/>The Alexandria [[megaship]] has jumped from [[Delphi]] to the HIP 16538 system, triggering a [[Thargoid]] attack. The megaship is carrying large quantities of [[Guardian]] artefacts, which were delivered as part of a research programme by [[Aegis]]. Captain [[Jacob Morales]], commanding officer of the Alexandria, has broadcast an SOS: "This is an emergency! We scheduled a stopover in HIP 16538 for [[tritium]] refuelling en route to the [[Sol]] system, but Thargoid interceptors came swarming in within minutes. We require immediate assistance!" Admiral [[Aden Tanner]], chief military liaison for Aegis, announced: "We believe that the Thargoids are reacting to the concentrated presence of Guardian technology stored within the Alexandria's cargo holds. Not only has the attack placed its crew and the population of this system in danger, but we risk losing these extremely valuable research materials. Aegis is asking anti-xeno squadrons and independent pilots to help destroy all Thargoid vessels within HIP 16538 and protect the Alexandria."<ref>[https://community.elitedangerous.com/galnet/uid/60a77d371db9db494a49544d GalNet: Thargoids Pursue Aegis Megaship]</ref> | *<nowiki>*</nowiki>Pilots Federation ALERT*<br/>The Alexandria [[megaship]] has jumped from [[Delphi]] to the HIP 16538 system, triggering a [[Thargoid]] attack.
