3270"Commander, I've been over these old files before you, and I have decided to "
3271"replace them with my own assessment and conclusions about our choice of "
3272"dropship. Apologies if I'm overstepping my bounds, but the old PHALANX "
3273"dropships in storage are simply not up to modern spec. None of them even got "
3274"out of the prototype stage when they were new. There are only two surviving "
3275"examples, and both of those ships have been left mothballed in government "
3276"warehouses for the past 60 years, not worth the trouble to dig out of "
3277"storage. We've inherited a real mess with regards to equipment, I can't even "
3278"find half the stuff that's supposed to be waiting for us. I'm doing my best "
3279"to find superior alternatives for gear that just isn't up to the task.\n"
3280"\n"
3281"The one bit of good luck in this dropship mess is that I managed to persuade "
3282"our UN rep to earmark some budget for a new ship, and I think you'll like "
3283"it.\n"
3284"\n"
3285"The Galeoth Firebird VTOL (Vertical Take-Off and Landing) is the best "
3286"aircraft we can hope to employ in our dropship role. It was designed as a "
3287"cargo hauler, but has quickly been picked up and adapted into a troop "
3288"transport by military contractors. It has since become a popular alternative "
3289"to helicopters in both the military and civilian worlds due to its four "
3290"HM-5600 pulse detonation engines, which provide the Firebird with VTOL "
3291"capability and achieve good fuel-efficiency with far fewer moving parts than "
3292"any helicopter engine. This increases reliability across the board and makes "
3293"for a vastly faster aircraft partly due to the lack of rotor blades. The "
3294"HM-5600s are still very thirsty engines, however, and the high-powered "
3295"aviation fuel can be too expensive for civilian applications.\n"
3296"\n"
3297"The Firebird's cruising speed is Mach 0.74. At a maximum velocity of Mach "
3298"1.03 it can just barely squeak through the sound barrier, but this causes a "
3299"lot of stress on the airframe and should be avoided outside of emergencies. "
3300"It has one variable weapons hardpoint located on its nose. It can also carry "
3301"additional equipment to improve its flight characteristics and combat "
3302"performance. There are acceleration harnesses for up to 8 soldiers.\n"
3303"\n"
3304"There is nothing else in the sky as well-suited to our dropship role as the "
3305"Firebird. It is faster than any helicopter, more manoeuvrable than any fixed-"
3306"wing aeroplane, and it can respond quickly and efficiently to threats all "
3307"over the world.\n"
3308"\n"
3309"The Firebird requires 1 Large Hangar for storage, maintenance and "

3420"To speed the development of this dropship, we adapted the design from an "
3421"existing airborne lifter vehicle that is used in the civilian sector for the "

3426"The craft has VTOL capabilities, but we've upgraded the propulsion systems "
3427"to achieve faster cruising speeds. We've also encased both the vehicle and "

3429"keep costs down. The Herakles should get our soldiers on-site faster and "
3430"safer than the firebird.\n"

3432"Like the Firebird, we have incorporated a single light weapon hardpoint in "

3522"\n"
3523"I'm very happy to report that the first production model of our next-"
3524"generation interceptor has been completed and passed all of its flight tests "
3525"with flying colours. At the risk of sounding boastful, it may be the finest "
3526"piece of human technology ever produced.\n"
3527"\n"
3528"The Stiletto is a single-seat air superiority fighter with VTOL (Vertical "
3529"Take-Off and Landing) capability, allowing it to set down on tiny landing "
3530"pads or in the middle of nowhere if necessary. Its huge, high-performance "
3531"turbofans can turn 360 degrees for full manoeuvrability even at supersonic "
3532"speeds. The giant engine intakes are protected by a sophisticated air "
3533"channeling system that actively filters the air in front of the engine and "
3534"redirects any piece of material large enough to harm the fan blades. They "
3535"are more than powerful enough to lift the heavily-armoured fuselage and can "
3536"hover unassisted for an extended period before burning through all their "
3537"fuel.\n"
3538"\n"
3539"The helicopter-like design may not look very fast, but appearances can be "
3540"deceiving. The Stiletto's compact airframe can survive anything up to Mach 2 "
3541"for short periods of time; it has a cruising speed of Mach 1.3 and a max "
3542"velocity of 2.1 on afterburners. These high marks put the Stiletto well "
3543"ahead of many military jet fighters which do not have supercruise ability.\n"
3544"\n"
3545"Once in the air, it can jump like a jackrabbit and is utterly ruthless in "
3546"the hands of an experienced pilot. It can turn laterally around its hangar "
3547"complex in six seconds whilst keeping its nose machine gun on the target at "
3548"all times. It can flip end over end in point-three seconds and acquire "
3549"missile lock on stealth aircraft before the turn is even complete.\n"
3550"\n"
3551"Missiles are fitted on hardpoints mounted just under the outer winglets. The "
3552"Stiletto also has powerful Electronic Warfare capabilities, with a state-of-"
3553"the-art sensor suite contained inside the nose that includes -- but is not "
3554"limited to -- several targeting lasers, a sophisticated radar system, and "
3555"optical imaging as powerful as any spy satellite. Small ECM emitters placed "
3556"in strategic points across the fuselage will throw off missile lock and can "
3557"actively jam incoming radar. The weapon hardpoints can take a variety of "
3558"armaments, and the electronics are fully modular to accept upgrades. "
3559"Remember, however, that space in this craft is at a premium.\n"
3560"\n"
3561"The powerful Volkot VO-36 engines consume a large amount of fuel, and the "
3562"Stiletto's capacity is not large. Leaving enough fuel for interception, its "
3563"maximum effective range is no greater than 2000 kilometres. However, within "
3564"this radius, this craft is the master of all it surveys.\n"
3565"\n"
3566"Please note that because of its exceptional performance this craft is not "
3567"recommended for use by novice pilots. Its handling at low speeds has been "
3568"described by our test crews as 'tricky'.\n"
3569"\n"

3736"Overview\n"
3737"\n"
3738"It is clear that the Stiletto-class Interceptor, while a terrific aircraft, "
3739"does not cover all our needs. We must be ready to defend our planet and our "
3740"people anywhere across the globe. The Stiletto's operational range is too "
3741"limited and it is not fast enough to engage all the UFOs we might detect.\n"
3742"\n"
3743"Only one aircraft in the world is capable of filling the operational gap we "
3744"face; the Argentinian KB-550 Hypersonic Wing, dubbed the \"Saracen\" in NATO "
3745"code. Mixing old and new stealth technology into a single airframe, the "
3746"Saracen most resembles the ancient SR-71 \"Blackbird\" in its shape and "
3747"bearing. It is black as the night itself, covered in radiation-absorbing "
3748"paint that makes it practically invisible to radar, lidar and most other "
3749"forms of active scanning. Its fuselage is composed almost entirely of carbon "
3750"nanotubes and sheets of graphite-reinforced plastic. This makes the craft "
3751"extremely strong and heat-resistant enough to cope with the temperatures of "
3752"cruising at speeds in excess of Mach 4. The Saracen is the fastest military "
3753"airplane still flying today.\n"
3754"\n"
3755"In terms of its capabilities, the Saracen pushes our interception range into "
3756"international territory. Its huge, armoured tanks and amazing fuel-"
3757"efficiency allow it to go anywhere up to 10,000 kilometres from its hangar "
3758"at hypersonic speeds -- and back again -- with fuel to spare for combat "
3759"manoeuvres. Its stealthy design, high speed and tough airframe allow it to "
3760"engage UFOs that our Stiletto-class Interceptors may simply be unable to "
3761"catch. It has tough armour and can fly home even on one engine. Thanks to "
3762"the power of its engines and a set of additional manoeuvring thrusters in "
3763"its belly, it can take off almost vertically; this is definitely within the "
3764"restrictions of our hangar facilities.\n"
3765"\n"
3766"Its electronics suite is similarly impressive. It has state-of-the-art "
3767"targeting computers, advanced radar and lidar systems, advanced ECM "
3768"(Electronic Counter-Measures) equipment, in-helmet VR imaging for the pilot, "
3769"and more.\n"
3770"\n"
3771"Unfortunately, for all its strengths, it is costly to lease and maintain, "
3772"and its heavy load of fuel and armour cuts into weapons capacity. The "
3773"Saracen cannot equal the weapons load of the far smaller and less expensive "
3774"Stiletto. Nor can it hope to equal the Stiletto's manoeuvrability. Despite "
3775"thrust-vectoring technology (the ability to change the shape of its engine "
3776"nozzles to direct thrust), electro-elastic wing surface (the ability to "
3777"dynamically change the shape of its wings) and other terrific advances, the "
3778"Saracen is still a large fixed-wing aircraft with all the limitations that "
3779"implies. Though it can take much more damage than a Stiletto and remain "
3780"effective, the Saracen will not perform as well in combat with alien craft.\n"

4098"weaponised than anything in our arsenal.\n"

4100"The Stingray's swept wings provide excellent stability at the extraordinary "

4102"maximum cohesion, we were able to build the durability of the aircraft into "
4103"its outer casing and gut the interior mechanisms which would typically "
4104"reinforce the aircraft's armour. As a result, we can mount heavier weapon "
4105"emplacements than we could on a comparable craft built with a more "

4236"it's obvious just from our combat recordings that this weapon is extremely "

4359"We can make several conclusions from the UFO's construction and the cargo "

4361"is built for carrying heavy loads rather than surviving combat. It doesn't "
4362"manoeuver very well, its engines are weak by comparison, and its airframe "
4363"will break up easily when hit.\n"
4364"\n"
4365"There isn't much that an alien cargo ship could be doing on Earth except "
4366"reinforcement and resupply. It will be bringing in weapons, spare parts and "
4367"other supplies from the alien homeworld to Earth in support of alien "
4368"operations on the surface. This should be prevented at all costs -- "
4369"permanent alien installations on Earth would place the civilian population "
4370"in the area in extreme danger. A strong alien presence also hampers our "
4371"operations in many ways, some too subtle to observe directly. The regular "
4372"operation of Supply Ships in an area may indicate an alien installation "
4373"under construction or, worse, one that's already operational.\n"

4764"Commander, my team and I have just finished another UFO report for you. Here "
4765"is my summary for your review.\n"
4766"\n"
4767"This craft -- which we've dubbed the 'Harvester' -- appears designed "
4768"specifically for landing on a planetary surface and deploying an alien "
4769"harvesting party. It is equipped with a set of large, sturdy landing legs "
4770"and a special set of thrusters located in the UFO's belly to give it VTOL "
4771"(Vertical Take-Off and Landing) capability. Once the landed Harvester's crew "
4772"has collected enough captives, corpses and other biomass, they return to the "
4773"UFO and lift off into orbit, quickly disappearing back to wherever it is "
4774"they came from.\n"
4775"\n"
4776"The Harvester seems to bear out our theories about fuel capacity being the "
4777"main limiting factor for UFO speed, as it is both larger and faster than any "
4778"other we've previously observed. It's able to carry more antimatter fuel and "
4779"protect it far more effectively, with a tougher hull, thicker armour, and "
4780"more effective emergency antimatter-dumping measures. Even if an explosion "
4781"does occur, most of the blast will be contained by the UFO's extremely "
4782"strong construction.\n"
4783"\n"
4784"The Harvester's fuel tank can take up to 0.6 grammes of antimatter and "
4785"possesses a potential explosive force of approximately 25 kilotons when "
4786"full.\n"
4787"\n"
4788"There are three front-facing weapon mounts arranged in a triangle around the "
4789"craft's cockpit, each equipped with the particle beam weapon we've observed "
4790"in other UFOs.\n"
4791"\n"
4792"In the air, the Harvester is extremely dangerous and should be a high-"
4793"priority target. Its firepower is more than a match for anything we can "
4794"currently field. Its only obvious drawback is low manoeuvrability compared "
4795"to smaller UFO types. Our interceptors are significantly more agile and we "
4796"have far more combat experience in Earth atmosphere than the aliens do. This "
4797"is one of the few advantages we'll have over the Harvester, but in most "
4798"cases it won't be sufficient unless we upgrade our aerial capabilities.\n"
4799"\n"
4800"When encountered, we should concentrate our best pilots on a Harvester to "
4801"take it out as fast as possible.\n"
4802"\n"
4803"Our estimates of the Harvester's increased capabilities raise some "
4804"frightening points. It seems that alien craft will actually grow faster as "
4805"they become larger and more powerful, and there's no doubt that, if they can "
4806"build these Harvesters, they can build bigger and nastier UFOs. Without "

4926"Electronic warfare has been a part of military operations ever since radar "

4930"throwing radar-scrambling 'chaff', and in later years the advent of stealth "

4932"later rather than sooner -- or not at all. Even better, your enemy can't "
4933"shoot what he can't see.\n"
4934"\n"
4935"Just like the Mk. 1 Eyeball, electronic detection and targeting can be "
4936"fooled, and the devices which fool electronic detection and targeting can be "

4944"For this reason, we have adopted the \"Raven\" Electronic Warfare Suite, the "

5060"Commander, I'm happy to report that we've cracked the code. We now have a "
5061"list of primary EW (Electronic Warfare) frequencies used by the aliens, and "
5062"a good understanding of how this powerful piece of electronics does what it "
5063"does.\n"
5064"\n"
5065"Of course, before you get too excited, let me stress that we have not found "
5066"a magic path through the aliens' defences. Regardless of what we take away "
5067"from this research, it's not going to end the war or make UFOs any less "
5068"dangerous. This is because of the EW suite's most important function -- it "
5069"has an independent onboard intelligence that adapts to its combat "
5070"environment.\n"
5071"\n"
5072"This intelligence is continually experimenting, trying to keep enemy systems "
5073"off-balance, changing its methods and deviating from its preferred "
5074"frequencies to try ones that might be more difficult to work with but could "
5075"bypass enemy jamming. We even believe that, when patched into a UFO's main "
5076"computer, this suite will hook into other onboard systems to make efficiency-"
5077"increasing adjustments based on enemy EW activity. Particularly to the "
5078"targeting computers.\n"
5079"\n"
5080"Besides the intelligent computer at its heart, the suite has projectors of "
5081"every kind, capable of saturating virtually any frequency in the "
5082"electromagnetic spectrum, even several frequencies at a time. It is also "
5083"capable of 'throwing' heat several metres away from the craft, causing "
5084"thermal spikes on infrared sensors that can fool missiles and draw them away "
5085"from the real target. Lastly the suite comes with a set of decoys that can "
5086"emulate practically any sensor signature, deployed as and when the computer "
5087"thinks it's necessary.\n"
5088"\n"
5089"With some modifications, we've been able to make the suite work with our "
5090"current aircraft electronics. Our main success has been in developing a set "
5091"of software upgrades which patch the alien EW suite into the onboard "
5092"intelligence systems of our aircraft. It's a hack if there ever was one, but "
5093"it will do for now.\n"

5112"Operations Command\n"
5113"\n"
5114"\n"
5115"\n"
5116"Overview\n"
5117"\n"
5118"Under the continuing efforts of the Excalibur Program, we have scoured the "
5119"globe for the best components on Earth in order to fit our aircraft with the "
5120"equipment they need to survive against the alien threat. As always, only the "
5121"very best equipment has been selected for the defence of our planet.\n"
5122"\n"
5123"One of the fundamental truths in aircraft design is that it's easier to dish "
5124"out damage than it is to take it and keep coming. Heavy objects don't really "
5125"belong in the sky; it takes a constant input of power to keep things like "
5126"aircraft, birds and balloons from coming back down, and if the source of "
5127"this power is damaged in mid-flight, a crash is unavoidable. PHALANX uses "
5128"exclusively multi-engine aircraft, but even though it's possible for our "
5129"interceptors to land on only one engine, the loss of an engine during combat "
5130"will immediately render the aircraft combat-ineffective. With such a drastic "
5131"loss of speed and manoeuvring power, continuing the engagement would be "
5132"suicide.\n"
5133"\n"
5134"Adding extra armour to our aircraft is a weighty but effective solution to "
5135"keeping them in the sky, protecting critical systems from damage and "
5136"allowing the aircraft to stay in the fight longer than would otherwise be "
5137"possible. It will reduce the severity of hits to the fuel tank and other "
5138"vital systems that might otherwise result in the craft's instant "
5139"destruction.\n"
5140"\n"
5141"The expensive polymer used in our standard add-on armour is one of the "
5142"toughest materials on the planet. It deforms wildly under heat and pressure, "
5143"such as when impacted by kinetic or explosive energy, cushioning the blow "
5144"across the entire armour surface. Once the energy has dissipated, the "
5145"deformed plate amazingly resumes all or most of its previous shape, "
5146"depending on the amount of damage received. We even have facilities in our "
5147"Workshops to repair permanently-deformed polymer plates once the aircraft "
5148"returns to base.\n"
5149"\n"
5150"On the downside, the added weight will slow the aircraft down and decrease "
5151"its effective range. This is less of an issue for quick short-range "
5152"interceptions, but can cause problems if UFOs are spotted in areas far "
5153"distant from any of our bases.\n"

5180"By: Cdr. Paul Navarre, R&D: Engineering Division, PHALANX, Atlantic "
5181"Operations Command\n"
5182"\n"
5183"\n"
5184"\n"
5185"Overview\n"
5186"\n"
5187"Under the continuing efforts of the Excalibur Program, we have scoured the "
5188"globe for the best components on Earth in order to fit our aircraft with the "
5189"equipment they need to survive against the alien threat. As always, only the "
5190"very best equipment has been selected for the defence of our planet.\n"
5191"\n"
5192"One of the fundamental truths in aircraft design is that it's easier to dish "
5193"out damage than it is to take it and keep coming. Heavy objects don't really "
5194"belong in the sky; it takes a constant input of power to keep things like "
5195"aircraft, birds and balloons from coming back down, and if the source of "
5196"this power is damaged in mid-flight, a crash is unavoidable. PHALANX uses "
5197"exclusively multi-engine aircraft, but even though it's possible for our "
5198"interceptors to land on only one engine, the loss of an engine during combat "
5199"will immediately render the aircraft combat-ineffective. With such a drastic "
5200"loss of speed and manoeuvring power, continuing the engagement would be "
5201"suicide\n"
5202"\n"
5203"Adding extra armour to our aircraft is a weighty but effective solution to "
5204"keeping them in the sky, protecting critical systems from damage and "
5205"allowing the aircraft to stay in the fight longer than would otherwise be "
5206"possible. It will reduce the severity of hits to the fuel tank and other "
5207"vital systems that might otherwise result in the craft's instant "
5208"destruction.\n"
5209"\n"
5210"The expensive polymer used in our standard add-on armour is one of the "
5211"toughest materials on the planet. It deforms wildly under heat and pressure, "
5212"such as when impacted by kinetic or explosive energy, cushioning the blow "
5213"across the entire armour surface. Once the energy has dissipated, the "
5214"deformed plate amazingly resumes all or most of its previous shape, "
5215"depending on the amount of damage received. We even have facilities in our "
5216"Workshops to repair permanently-deformed polymer plates once the aircraft "
5217"returns to base.\n"
5218"\n"
5219"On the downside, the added weight will slow the aircraft down and "
5220"significantly decrease its effective range. This is less of an issue for "
5221"quick short-range interceptions, but can cause problems if UFOs are spotted "
5222"in areas far distant from any of our bases.\n"
5223"\n"
5224"Installing this armour add-on will completely take up the modular armour "
5225"slot on one of our aircraft.\n"
5226"\n"
5227"\n"
5228"Recommended Doctrine\n"
5229"\n"
5230"It is recommended to restrict this armour add-on to craft which are meant to "
5231"make quick, short-range interceptions not far from their base. The "
5232"installation of add-on armour on our long-range interceptors is left to the "
5233"Commander's discretion, but limiting their effective range in this manner "
5234"can be dangerous, as it will be several hours' work to strip off the armour "
5235"once it's put on. During this time the interceptor will be 'in the shop' and "
5236"unable to launch. Any rearming or refuelling of the aircraft will have to "
5237"wait until the installation/removal is complete. Our techs can't work on "
5238"this material with dangerous munitions or fuel on-site.\n"
5239"\n"
5240"Scrambling an aircraft during a half-finished armour job is possible but not "
5241"recommended. The craft will be highly unbalanced and in danger of crashing "
5242"because of unpredictable handling and behaviour. It certainly won't be able "
5243"to fight, as its targeting electronics will have been shut down for the "
5244"duration of the maintenance cycle, and they cannot be booted up in time to "
5245"be effective in a scramble situation.\n"

5626"Commander, I'm happy to report the success of our alien propulsion program. "
5627"We've cracked the mysteries of the alien engine set-up and we finally "

5630"Quoting from my previous report:\n"
5631"\n"
5632"(UFO Theory) \"The alien propulsion system is a type of rocket engine unlike "
5633"any ever built on Earth. It uses direct matter-antimatter annihilation to "
5634"generate thrust by injecting protons and antiprotons into the reaction "
5635"chamber, and then channeling this explosive force out the back of the "
5636"engine. This gives a UFO extreme power and needs no air or other gases to "
5637"fuel the reaction, allowing it to burn in hard vacuum. There is a highly-"
5638"advanced cooling system continuously pumping liquid nitrogen through the "
5639"engine housing in order to keep it cool and reduce the infrared signature. "
5640"Engine heat is also used to supply the craft's electricity.\"\n"
5641"\n"
5642"With this project we've learned a lot about how these engines are "

5970"Overview\n"
5971"\n"
5972"Now that we have aircraft capable of intercepting the attacking UFOs, we "
5973"need to equip them with armaments that can actually shoot down these alien "
5974"craft. We have evaluated every available weapon on Earth as part of the "
5975"Excalibur Program, and we have selected the very best for the defence of our "
5976"planet.\n"
5977"\n"
5978"The SHIVA is a four-barreled rotary cannon, firing the 20mm HMG (Heavy "
5979"Machine Gun) round. It is an externally-powered gun -- rather than being "
5980"dependent upon recoil to actuate the system, it uses an external motor to "
5981"produce power. The electric motor which drives the SHIVA is a high-"
5982"efficiency 20 horse power beast, achieving a rate of fire up to 6,000 rounds "
5983"a minute with the accurate, hard-hitting 20mm HMG shells.\n"
5984"\n"
5985"Designed and built in Bangladesh, the SHIVA was first prototyped in 2048, "
5986"failing every one of its trials during that year. The project was nearly "
5987"discontinued until, in July 2050, an undercover investigation revealed a "
5988"long-running sabotage plot by a rival arms company. A new prototype was "
5989"constructed which showed enough promise justify further development. "
5990"Eventually all the major bugs were ironed out, at which point the power of "
5991"this weapon became apparent.\n"
5992"\n"
5993"The SHIVA is very light for an aircraft weapon of its size and "
5994"effectiveness, weighing only 250 kilos unloaded, 400 kilos loaded. The rate "
5995"of fire exceeds that of any other four-barreled cannon in existence. Its "
5996"sophisticated tracking systems can hold a bead on an enemy for as long as "
5997"there is a radar, lidar or optical target solution available. The unlinked "
5998"ammo feeds are highly reliable and no jam has ever been recorded throughout "
5999"the gun's service history.\n"
6000"\n"
6001"The SHIVA can fire two varieties of the HMG round; API (Armour-Piercing "
6002"Incendiary) or HEI (High-Explosive Incendiary). The former achieves better "
6003"penetration while the latter can do more damage if penetration is achieved. "
6004"Both these rounds are proven to be capable of penetrating UFO armour to some "
6005"degree.\n"

6048"Overview\n"
6049"\n"
6050"Now that we have aircraft capable of intercepting the attacking UFOs, we "
6051"need to equip them with armaments that can actually shoot down these alien "
6052"craft. We have evaluated every available weapon on Earth as part of the "
6053"Excalibur Program, and we have selected the very best for the defence of our "
6054"planet.\n"
6055"\n"
6056"The SHIVA is a four-barreled rotary cannon, firing the 20mm HMG (Heavy "
6057"Machine Gun) round. It is an externally-powered gun -- rather than being "
6058"dependent upon recoil to actuate the system, it uses an external motor to "
6059"produce power. The electric motor which drives the SHIVA is a high-"
6060"efficiency 20 horse power beast, achieving a rate of fire up to 6,000 rounds "
6061"a minute with the accurate, hard-hitting 20mm HMG shells.\n"
6062"\n"
6063"Designed and built in Bangladesh, the SHIVA was first prototyped in 2048, "
6064"failing every one of its trials during that year. The project was nearly "
6065"discontinued until, in July 2050, an undercover investigation revealed a "
6066"long-running sabotage plot by a rival arms company. A new prototype was "
6067"constructed which showed enough promise justify further development. "
6068"Eventually all the major bugs were ironed out, at which point the power of "
6069"this weapon became apparent.\n"
6070"\n"
6071"The SHIVA is very light for an aircraft weapon of its size and "
6072"effectiveness, weighing only 250 kilos unloaded, 400 kilos loaded. The rate "
6073"of fire exceeds that of any other four-barreled cannon in existence. Its "
6074"sophisticated tracking systems can hold a bead on an enemy for as long as "
6075"there is a radar, lidar or optical target solution available. The unlinked "
6076"ammo feeds are highly reliable and no jam has ever been recorded throughout "
6077"the gun's service history.\n"
6078"\n"
6079"The SHIVA can fire two varieties of the HMG round; API (Armour-Piercing "
6080"Incendiary) or HEI (High-Explosive Incendiary). The former achieves better "
6081"penetration while the latter can do more damage if penetration is achieved. "
6082"Both these rounds are proven to be capable of penetrating UFO armour to some "
6083"degree.\n"
6084"\n"
6085"The largest issue with the SHIVA cannon is that it does only limited damage "
6086"to a UFO, requiring a fairly long engagement time in order to bring a target "
6087"down on its own. This also allows the enemy plenty of opportunity to escape "
6088"or peg our craft with return fire. On the other hand, its large magazine "
6089"gives it more staying power than most other weapons, and it is not to be "
6090"underestimated.\n"
6091"\n"
6092"\n"
6093"Recommended Doctrine\n"
6094"\n"
6095"Low damage and long engagement times somewhat limit the SHIVA's usefulness. "
6096"However, most of these failings can be amended or eliminated if the gun is "
6097"used in numbers or as part of a mixed gun-and-missiles armament. It can "
6098"provide continuous automatic fire while the pilot concentrates on delivering "
6099"his missiles, or it can be part of a gunboat configuration -- one or more "
6100"interceptors loaded with as many cannons as possible, bringing down a UFO by "
6101"sheer weight of lead.\n"

6368"one major problem with using missiles against our alien enemies. They can't "
6369"hit the bastards.\n"
6370"\n"
6371"The amount and density of alien EW systems is enough to defeat the guidance "
6372"systems of practically any Earth-built missile. Our electronics are simply "
6373"not up to the job. The aliens make short work of radar and infrared homing, "
6374"and manually-guided missiles have no chance of hitting. Even laser-riding "
6375"missiles can't maintain a lock on the alien hull materials. This leaves us "
6376"without a lot of options in the field of guided ordnance.\n"
6377"\n"
6378"It's only thanks to the extensive knowledge and experience of my staff that "
6379"we've found one.\n"
6380"\n"
6381"The \"Sparrowhawk\" missile is an antique that never quite got out of the "
6382"prototype stage. It was first tested in 2019, using then-revolutionary "
6383"digital imaging technology to improve the old guidance technology of "
6384"'contrast seeking'. This technique uses an array of optical cameras mounted "
6385"in the transparent fibreglass nose of the missile. The onboard computer "
6386"looks for a spot in the image where the contrast changes the fastest, and "
6387"then attempts to keep that spot dead centre in front of it. This system has "
6388"been employed mostly in air-to-ground missiles due to the greater "
6389"effectiveness of other guidance systems against Earth-built aircraft.\n"
6390"\n"
6391"The Sparrowhawk program was cancelled only months before the design would've "
6392"been put into service. It was ready to be put into service then, it's ready "
6393"now, and right now it's the only choice we've got.\n"
6394"\n"
6395"We've revived the Sparrowhawk AA program and the UN has agreed to put it "
6396"into mass production. This will give us access to 7-missile racks capable of "
6397"being mounted on all our interceptors, allowing them to engage UFOs at "
6398"ranges that would otherwise be closed off to us.\n"
6399"\n"
6400"The missile's maximum effective range is twelve kilometres. A fully-loaded "

6402"\n"
6403"\n"
6404"Recommended Doctrine\n"
6405"\n"
6406"The Sparrowhawk should be an essential part of our aerial defence plan. Any "
6407"interceptor capable of carrying a full rack should do so. The ability to "
6408"soften up an enemy while we close in is something not to be ignored lightly. "
6409"Overall accuracy will be poor but the range difference is one of miles. "

6663"Overview\n"
6664"\n"
6665"Now that we have aircraft capable of intercepting the attacking UFOs, we "
6666"need to equip them with armaments that can actually shoot down these alien "
6667"craft. We have evaluated every available weapon on Earth as part of the "
6668"Excalibur Program, and we have selected the very best for the defence of our "
6669"planet.\n"
6670"\n"
6671"The TR-20 rocket pod is an interesting departure from conventional air-to-"
6672"air weapons, in that it was originally designed for air-to-ground "
6673"operations. The pod contains a total of 152 very small, very fast rockets "
6674"with depleted uranium tips and powerful pulse detonation engines. No one "
6675"considered using the TR-20 for anything other than chewing up ground targets "
6676"until an attack helicopter pilot in Africa discovered their potential.\n"
6677"\n"
6678"At the time, the pilot -- the last surviving member of his flight -- had "
6679"been cornered against a mountain by three MiG jets which were closing in for "
6680"the kill. With nearly all his weapons expended, the only thing the pilot had "
6681"left to fight with was one pod of TR-20 rockets. He made a suicide run with "
6682"full afterburners, and managed to swat all three MiGs out of the sky with "
6683"rapid fire before he ran out of fuel and had to crash-land. He returned to "
6684"his airbase two days later without a scratch on him.\n"
6685"\n"
6686"Though unguided, TR-20 pods contain such a large number of rockets that they "
6687"can be used almost like a rocket machine gun. This is because the rockets "
6688"are stacked nose to tail inside their launch tubes, eight to each tube, and "
6689"fired electronically in a timed sequence. This system is so fast that all "
6690"eight rockets in a tube can be ignited and underway before the first rocket "
6691"actually leaves the tube. At its maximum possible rate of fire, the pod can "
6692"fire all 152 rockets in 0.2 seconds. However, this is usually throttled back "
6693"to approx. 300 rounds per minute due to the low accuracy of any single "
6694"volley.\n"
6695"\n"
6696"The advantages of the TR-20 over the SHIVA cannon are increased range and "
6697"greater hitting power. However, the pod's ammo capacity is limited compared "
6698"to the SHIVA's large portable magazines, and a single TR-20 pod is unlikely "
6699"to last through a full UFO engagement.\n"
6700"\n"
6701"\n"
6702"Recommended Doctrine\n"
6703"\n"
6704"We anticipate the TR-20 will perform nicely against light UFOs. Because it "
6705"only requires a medium-weight hardpoint, it should be installed on lighter "
6706"aircraft. In these situations, TR-20 rockets perform with flying colours, "
6707"tearing mercilessly into a target. However, its limited range and accuracy "
6708"lead me to recommend that the Sparrowhawk Missile Rack be preferred in any "

6771"\n"
6772"We anticipate the TR-20 will perform nicely against slower or slow-moving "
6773"UFOs, especially if their propulsion systems have been damaged somehow. In "
6774"these situations, TR-20 rockets perform with flying colours, tearing "
6775"mercilessly into a target. However, accuracy drops rapidly against faster "
6776"opponents. Damage potential is irrelevant if we can't place a single round "
6777"on the target.\n"
6778"\n"
6779"For this reason, it's recommended we use the TR-20 in moderation and mostly "
6780"in situations that play to its strengths, such as when engaging a single UFO "
6781"with multiple aircraft. The flight leader can drive the target into his "
6782"wingman's killzone with cannons or guided weapons, at which point the "
6783"wingman has a clear shot with his rockets. Even so, no more than a single "
6784"TR-20 pod should be loaded on any one aircraft for maximum air-to-air "
6785"efficiency.\n"
6786"\n"

6967"a coherent beam. The level of magnetic control the aliens achieve here is "
6968"far greater than anything we've managed before. The pinch system is "

7091"Commander, we've finished work on the alien missile launcher. It's a fairly "

7094"accelerate the missile to extreme speeds, reaching up to Mach 4 at the point "
7095"where the missile leaves the tube. Only once the missile is fully free of "
7096"the tube do its onboard rockets kick in.\n"

7121"successfully prototyped the new Aerial Laser Cannon and are ready to put it "
7122"into production.\n"
7123"\n"
7124"We achieved what we set out to do: create a continuous wave, deuterium-"
7125"fluoride-powered laser with megawatt-range output, capable of tracking and "
7126"hitting UFOs at ranges of up to 5 kilometres. Accuracy is excellent, "
7127"hampered only by enemy ECM (Electronic Countermeasures), and unlike in all "
7128"our other weapons it is not affected by range. The laser proceeds in a "
7129"straight line and crosses the distance between gun and target almost "
7130"instantly. It's hard to miss with it.\n"
7131"\n"
7132"Unfortunately atmospheric blooming is still a problem, and the laser rapidly "
7133"loses power the further it has to travel to the target. At maximum range, 5 "
7134"kilometres, it takes 32 seconds of continuous fire on the same spot to hole "
7135"a UFO's hull. We're rarely going to have that much time to wait for a kill. "
7136"The ideal range for this weapon is between 2 to 3 kilometres where it "
7137"strikes a good balance between damage and distance. Average damage per "
7138"second at these distances is slightly less than the SHIVA Rotary Cannon, but "
7139"range is higher by up to 1.5 kilometres. More so than any of our previous "
7140"weapons, the Aerial Laser Cannon is ideal for driving and pinning down the "
7141"enemy behind a wall of laser fire.\n"
7142"\n"
7143"The cannon carries an integrated magazine of deuterium-fluoride allowing up "
7144"to thirty minutes of continuous fire. Since deuterium and fluoride are both "
7145"too potentially hazardous to store on-base, and we have access to large off-"

7225"two different things: heat and electricity. Heat is an obvious choice to "
7226"make the UFO fuselage splay out during atmospheric flight, to provide better "
7227"lift. Electricity, though, is a new one.\n"
7228"\n"
7229"When applying electricity, the alloy responds only to a constant, low-"
7230"voltage current at a very specific amperage. The material's shape will "
7231"deform and stay deformed for as long as that current is maintained. Once the "
7232"current is switched off, the alloy will revert to its normal 'at rest' shape "
7233"or a heat-induced shape if enough heat is present. The electricity-induced "
7234"shape takes precedence over the heat-induced shape.\n"
7235"\n"
7236"This means that the shape of a UFO fuselage (and anything else made with "
7237"these materials) can be changed at will, either by a command from the "

7365"Overview\n"
7366"\n"
7367"Under the continuing efforts of the Excalibur Program, we have scoured the "
7368"globe for the best components on Earth in order to fit our aircraft with the "
7369"equipment they need to survive against the alien threat. As always, only the "
7370"very best equipment has been selected for the defence of our planet.\n"
7371"\n"
7372"All our aircraft come standard with high-tech targeting systems, but they "
7373"still have an extremely difficult time tracking alien craft and holding "
7374"missile lock. Alien electronics are too far in advance of ours for us to be "
7375"able to realistically counter their defences. Our systems lose lock, get "
7376"suckered by flares or decoys, or simply get shot to hell by the aliens' beam "
7377"weapons.\n"
7378"\n"
7379"These are all problems that we have no clear solution for at the moment. "
7380"However, what we can do is mount additional targeting equipment with purpose-"
7381"built filtering software that our standard systems can't load. This package "
7382"was specially built by my team using the latest, most accurate data on alien "
7383"craft signatures and detection methods. It knows much more about the "
7384"patterns and weaknesses of alien signals, helping to penetrate the wall of "
7385"Electronic Warfare activity around an alien craft. This will significantly "
7386"upgrade the accuracy of all weapons mounted on the carrying interceptor.\n"
7387"\n"
7388"The powerful hardware installation involved in this upgrade will take up one "
7389"complete modular equipment slot on one of our aircraft.\n"
7390"\n"
7391"\n"
7392"Recommended Doctrine\n"
7393"\n"
7394"This upgrade has several effective purposes. It can help to improve the "
7395"effectiveness of low-accuracy weapons systems on a single aircraft, it can "
7396"be used in a fire support role assisting barrages of long-range missile "
7397"fire, or it can be used en masse by whole flights of interceptors to bring "
7398"overwhelming fire to bear on our enemies at all ranges.\n"
7399"\n"
7400"Its only downside is that it takes up a whole modular slot that could be "
7401"used for defensive electronics or other equipment. This may leave our "
7402"interceptors weak in other areas.\n"
7403"\n"
7404"\n"
7405"Addenda\n"
7406"\n"
7407"With all the possibilities and different scenarios waiting in our future, "
7408"there is no golden rule that will help decide when to deploy the Targeting "
7409"Computer. It is ready for use at the Commander's discretion."

7707"The autopsy and evaluation of the green alien specimen is complete. I'm "
7708"hereby submitting my summary for your review.\n"
7709"\n"
7710"The first thing we noticed about this species, which has been named the "
7711"'Ortnok', is its size. Its appearence is like a brutish, hulking caricature "
7712"of a man, something that can be quite disturbing to our agents in the field, "
7713"but we've confirmed that the Ortnok is in no way genetically related to "
7714"humanity.\n"
7715"\n"
7716"In proportion to its body weight, the Ortnok has more muscle than a "
7717"professional body builder. At first we concluded this was solely the product "
7718"of an extreme-heavy-gravity homeworld, but subsequent hormone and toxicology "
7719"work on our specimen have revealed something interesting. The subject seems "
7720"to have been raised from birth on a heavy diet of genetic tampering and "
7721"anabolic steroids. This, combined with the incredible density of the muscle "
7722"tissue, makes the Ortnok physically stronger than any biological entity on "
7723"Earth.\n"
7724"\n"
7725"During our first incisions, we were surprised to find the Ortnok to be "
7726"without blood. It has lungs, viscera and something akin to digestive organs, "
7727"but no liver or heart that we can identify. Instead of veins there is a very "
7728"well-developed system of nerve tubes, filled with a kind of electrically "
7729"conductive gel, that seems to power and control the muscles by direct "
7730"electrical stimulation. The needed electricity is generated through "
7731"digestion of organic matter and stored in a set of large eel-like organs "
7732"underneath the lungs. The nervous system itself is nourished by the leftover "
7733"products of the digestion process by way of veins filled with pressurised "
7734"air. The whole chest cavity has been richly furnished with armour plating "
7735"inserted just underneath the leathery green skin.\n"
7736"\n"
7737"The eyes are covered with surgically-implanted lenses that improve the "
7738"Ortnok's already excellent vision, stretching it into the infrared spectrum. "
7739"The ears consist of a series of small cavities, three on either side of the "
7740"head, which are surprisingly large and well-developed. Given the evidence we "
7741"must conclude that Ortnoks have acute hearing, though the nose and olfactory "
7742"organs are quite small, atrophied almost to the point of being vestigial.\n"
7743"\n"
7744"From the autopsy and our analysis of battlefield footage, we can conclude "
7745"the following:\n"
7746"\n"
7747"- The brain is fairly small for a hominid of such size, no larger than that "
7748"of Homo erectus, but it is perhaps sufficient for the role of foot soldier. "
7749"Ortnoks certainly don't display any tactical sluggishness on the "
7750"battlefield.\n"
7751"\n"
7752"- The three-fingered hand is able to carry and use a wide variety of "
7753"equipment. However, Ortnoks are most often equipped with heavy weapons to "
7754"match their size.\n"
7755"\n"
7756"- Ortnoks are strong, tough and dangerous. Their internal armour enhances "
7757"their natural endurance even further, making them difficult to take down. "
7758"Armour-piercing rounds or incendiary weapons are recommended. Lasers, "
7759"explosives and cutting weapons will not be very effective due to the "
7760"extensive armouring.\n"
7761"\n"
7762"- All Ortnok specimens we've seen so far were not equipped with reproductive "
7763"organs. From surgical scarring around the groin area, we believe they may "
7764"have been neutered for some reason.\n"
7765"\n"
7766"In combat, specimens seem to be used most often in the role of heavy "
7767"infantry and fire support. They are not particularly accurate with their "
7768"somewhat cumbersome weapons, but when working in numbers they usually lay "
7769"down enough fire to suppress and then annihilate a PHALANX squad. Ortnoks do "
7770"not seem to serve in many specialist capacities; they are never used as "
7771"technicians according to our camera observations, and usually busy "
7772"themselves handling perimeter security for the Tamans when not engaged in "
7773"combat.\n"
7774"\n"
7775"There is a complex set of implants in the subject's throat that will require "
7776"further research to be fully understood. I will send you a more detailed "
7777"analysis along with a research proposal.\n"
7778"\n"
7779"We have no idea quite where the name 'Ortnok' came from. The troops don't "
7780"seem to know, and neither do we. Still, it's as good a name as any, and it "
7781"seems to have stuck.\n"

7799"humanity.\n"
7800"\n"
7801"In proportion to its body weight, the Ortnok has more muscle than a "
7802"professional body builder. At first we concluded this was solely the product "
7803"of an extreme-heavy-gravity homeworld, but subsequent hormone and toxicology "
7804"work on our specimen have revealed something interesting. The subject seems "
7805"to have been raised from birth on a heavy diet of genetic tampering and "
7806"anabolic steroids. This, combined with the incredible density of the muscle "
7807"tissue, makes the Ortnok physically stronger than any biological entity on "
7808"Earth.\n"
7809"\n"
7810"During our first incisions, we were surprised to find the Ortnok to be "
7811"without blood. It has lungs, viscera and something akin to digestive organs, "
7812"but no liver or heart that we can identify. Instead of veins there is a very "
7813"well-developed system of nerve tubes, filled with a kind of electrically "
7814"conductive gel, that seems to power and control the muscles by direct "
7815"electrical stimulation. The needed electricity is generated through "
7816"digestion of organic matter and stored in a set of large eel-like organs "
7817"underneath the lungs. The nervous system itself is nourished by the leftover "
7818"products of the digestion process by way of veins filled with pressurised "
7819"air. The whole chest cavity has been richly furnished with armour plating "
7820"inserted just underneath the leathery green skin.\n"
7821"\n"
7822"The eyes are covered with surgically-implanted lenses that improve the "
7823"Ortnok's already excellent vision, stretching it into the infrared spectrum. "
7824"The ears consist of a series of small cavities, three on either side of the "
7825"head, which are surprisingly large and well-developed. Given the evidence we "
7826"must conclude that Ortnoks have acute hearing, though the nose and olfactory "
7827"organs are quite small, atrophied almost to the point of being vestigial.\n"
7828"\n"
7829"From the autopsy and our analysis of battlefield footage, we can conclude "
7830"the following:\n"
7831"\n"
7832"- The brain is fairly small for a hominid of such size, no larger than that "
7833"of Homo erectus, but it is perhaps sufficient for the role of foot soldier. "
7834"Ortnoks certainly don't display any tactical sluggishness on the "
7835"battlefield.\n"
7836"\n"
7837"- The three-fingered hand is able to carry and use a wide variety of "
7838"equipment. However, Ortnoks are most often equipped with heavy weapons to "
7839"match their size.\n"
7840"\n"
7841"- Ortnoks are strong, tough and dangerous. Their internal armour enhances "
7842"their natural endurance even further, making them difficult to take down. "
7843"Armour-piercing rounds or incendiary weapons are recommended. Lasers, "
7844"explosives and cutting weapons will not be very effective due to the "
7845"extensive armouring.\n"
7846"\n"
7847"- All Ortnok specimens we've seen so far were not equipped with reproductive "
7848"organs. From surgical scarring around the groin area, we believe they may "
7849"have been neutered for some reason.\n"
7850"\n"
7851"In combat, specimens seem to be used most often in the role of heavy "
7852"infantry and fire support. They are not particularly accurate with their "
7853"somewhat cumbersome weapons, but when working in numbers they usually lay "
7854"down enough fire to suppress and then annihilate a PHALANX squad. Ortnoks do "
7855"not seem to serve in many specialist capacities; they are never used as "
7856"technicians according to our camera observations, and usually busy "
7857"themselves handling perimeter security for the Tamans when not engaged in "
7858"combat.\n"
7859"\n"
7860"There is a complex set of implants in the subject's throat that will require "
7861"further research to be fully understood. I will send you a more detailed "
7862"analysis along with a research proposal.\n"
7863"\n"
7864"We have no idea quite where the name 'Ortnok' came from. The troops don't "
7865"seem to know, and neither do we. Still, it's as good a name as any, and it "
7866"seems to have stuck.\n"

8045"My team and I have completed our autopsy of the 'grey' body we recovered. "
8046"Here is my summary of our findings.\n"
8047"\n"
8048"When Commonwealth troops first arrived in Mumbai, confused and apprehensive, "
8049"they were swarmed by crowds of screaming locals, terrified out of their "
8050"minds and desperate for protection. Most of the soldiers didn't even speak "
8051"the language, unable to understand what was said. When they asked what was "
8052"wrong, the civilians simply cried, \"xuRta AwmA\" -- the Hindi term for "
8053"'evil spirit' or 'demon'.\n"
8054"\n"
8055"Under fire, the term quickly shortened to \"Taama\", and by the time the "
8056"shooting was over it had further mutated. Everyone had settled on \"Taman"
8057"\" (pronounced 'tah-man') as the word that described the grey nightmares "
8058"that had slaughtered them. The name still remains, but we can now say with "
8059"confidence that these aliens are made of flesh and blood rather than fire "
8060"and darkness.\n"
8061"\n"
8062"First and probably most interesting is the fact that this creature looks "
8063"almost human. Two arms, two legs, a torso and a head; bipedal locomotion; "
8064"visual, olfactory and auditory organs all in the same general location. The "
8065"subject's hands and feet have three long digits, one of which (the 'thumb') "
8066"is opposable. This species is on average shorter than humans and possesses a "
8067"thin, almost delicate frame which belies their toughness.\n"
8068"\n"
8069"The subject has a very simple set of vital organs; heart, lungs, liver, and "
8070"so on. It lacks most of the redundant or obsolete organs that humans have "
8071"carried through our evolutionary history. Biologically, the most interesting "
8072"part of the subject's internals is the digestive tract. The creature has a "
8073"total of three stomachs meant for the digestion of very tough plant matter. "
8074"It is incapable of digesting meat of any kind. This implies that, wherever "
8075"they come from, the Tamans are herbivores feeding on some kind of plant "
8076"life. This finding has comforted some of our more excitable staff. At least "
8077"we know the aliens aren't harvesting us for our meat.\n"
8078"\n"
8079"There is a complex set of implants in the subject's throat that will require "
8080"further research to be fully understood. I will send you a more detailed "
8081"analysis along with a research proposal.\n"
8082"\n"
8083"The large, overdeveloped eyes equip the Taman with natural night-vision. It "
8084"has special irises that protect the retinas from bright light such as "
8085"sunlight, but if a sudden blast of highly intense illumination were to hit "
8086"the retina before the iris can adjust, it could cause prolonged or even "
8087"permanent blindness. Our flashbang may be highly effective here.\n"
8088"\n"
8089"The greyness of the skin is a particularly curious feature. It is actually "
8090"caused by the secretion of trace amounts of silicon, which hardens over the "
8091"supple inner skin to provide a kind of natural armour. This makes a Taman "
8092"fairly resistant to impact and heat.\n"
8093"\n"
8094"From our analysis, we can conclude the following:\n"
8095"\n"
8096"-- The Tamans have a natural resistance to bullets and blunt trauma, but not "
8097"enough to render such weapons combat ineffective.\n"
8098"\n"
8099"-- Their skin easily disperses small to medium amounts of heat, but "
8100"prolonged exposure to a flamethrower or incendiary compound will still do "
8101"the trick. Lasers will do slightly less damage than normal.\n"
8102"\n"
8103"-- Though the body is limber and elastic, the Taman's internal organs are "
8104"badly protected against concussion, which makes them particularly vulnerable "
8105"to the shockwaves of explosive ordnance.\n"
8106"\n"
8107"Further study has ruled out other wild-eyed theories. Though the Tamans' "
8108"appearance is very similar to that of humans, almost enough to imply a kind "
8109"of relationship, they seem to be more a case of convergent evolution (two "
8110"different paths to a similar end result) than a blood relation. There are "
8111"very few similarities between the Taman gene sequences and that of humans, "
8112"and the structure of chromatin in their DNA is several orders of magnitude "
8113"more complex than ours. This seems to preclude a hypothetical common "
8114"origin.\n"
8115"\n"
8116"In combat, Tamans present a significant threat. They are highly agile and "
8117"can wield a variety of weapons with great accuracy. Besides serving as "
8118"soldiers, they fill many specialist roles in the alien war machine, "
8119"positions in which Tamans seem to be the most numerous. Complex weapons and "
8120"advanced armour are more often wielded by Tamans than any other species. "
8121"This is most likely due to their large brains, sensory organs and delicate "
8122"manipulators.\n"
8123"\n"
8124"Whether or not the Tamans are the 'greys' of old UFO abduction stories, I "
8125"couldn't say, but it seems extremely unlikely. PHALANX has never been able "
8126"to verify a single report of alien activity since the 1950s. The UFOs we're "
8127"seeing now are certainly not flying saucers. If they could've invaded Earth "
8128"a century ago, why wait until now to do it? It doesn't really add up -- but "
8129"then, who can know the motivations of an alien mind?\n"

8232"My team and I have completed our autopsy of the 'grey' body we recovered. "
8233"Here is my summary of our findings.\n"
8234"\n"
8235"When Commonwealth troops first arrived in Mumbai, confused and apprehensive, "
8236"they were swarmed by crowds of screaming locals, terrified out of their "
8237"minds and desperate for protection. Most of the soldiers didn't even speak "
8238"the language, unable to understand what was said. When they asked what was "
8239"wrong, the civilians simply cried, \"xuRta AwmA\" -- the Hindi term for "
8240"'evil spirit' or 'demon'.\n"
8241"\n"
8242"Under fire, the term quickly shortened to \"Taama\", and by the time the "
8243"shooting was over it had further mutated. Everyone had settled on \"Taman"
8244"\" (pronounced 'tah-man') as the word that described the grey nightmares "
8245"that had slaughtered them. The name still remains, but we can now say with "
8246"confidence that these aliens are made of flesh and blood rather than fire "
8247"and darkness.\n"
8248"\n"
8249"First and probably most interesting is the fact that this creature looks "
8250"almost human. Two arms, two legs, a torso and a head; bipedal locomotion; "
8251"visual, olfactory and auditory organs all in the same general location. The "
8252"subject's hands and feet have three long digits, one of which (the 'thumb') "
8253"is opposable. This species is on average shorter than humans and possesses a "
8254"thin, almost delicate frame which belies their toughness.\n"
8255"\n"
8256"The subject has a very simple set of vital organs; heart, lungs, liver, and "
8257"so on. It lacks most of the redundant or obsolete organs that humans have "
8258"carried through our evolutionary history. Biologically, the most interesting "
8259"part of the subject's internals is the digestive tract. The creature has a "
8260"total of three stomachs meant for the digestion of very tough plant matter. "
8261"It is incapable of digesting meat of any kind. This implies that, wherever "
8262"they come from, the Tamans are herbivores feeding on some kind of plant "
8263"life. This finding has comforted some of our more excitable staff. At least "
8264"we know the aliens aren't harvesting us for our meat.\n"
8265"\n"
8266"The large, overdeveloped eyes equip the Taman with natural night-vision. It "
8267"has special irises that protect the retinas from bright light such as "
8268"sunlight, but if a sudden blast of highly intense illumination were to hit "
8269"the retina before the iris can adjust, it could cause prolonged or even "
8270"permanent blindness. Our flashbang may be highly effective here.\n"
8271"\n"
8272"The greyness of the skin is a particularly curious feature. It is actually "
8273"caused by the secretion of trace amounts of silicon, which hardens over the "
8274"supple inner skin to provide a kind of natural armour. This makes a Taman "
8275"fairly resistant to impact and heat.\n"
8276"\n"
8277"From our analysis, we can conclude the following:\n"
8278"\n"
8279"-- The Tamans have a natural resistance to bullets and blunt trauma, but not "
8280"enough to render such weapons combat ineffective.\n"
8281"\n"
8282"-- Their skin easily disperses small to medium amounts of heat, but "
8283"prolonged exposure to a flamethrower or incendiary compound will still do "
8284"the trick. Lasers will do slightly less damage than normal.\n"
8285"\n"
8286"-- Though the body is limber and elastic, the Taman's internal organs are "
8287"badly protected against concussion, which makes them particularly vulnerable "
8288"to the shockwaves of explosive ordnance.\n"
8289"\n"
8290"Further study has ruled out other wild-eyed theories. Though the Tamans' "
8291"appearance is very similar to that of humans, almost enough to imply a kind "
8292"of relationship, they seem to be more a case of convergent evolution (two "
8293"different paths to a similar end result) than a blood relation. There are "
8294"very few similarities between the Taman gene sequences and that of humans, "
8295"and the structure of chromatin in their DNA is several orders of magnitude "
8296"more complex than ours. This seems to preclude a hypothetical common "
8297"origin.\n"
8298"\n"
8299"In combat, Tamans present a significant threat. They are highly agile and "
8300"can wield a variety of weapons with great accuracy. Besides serving as "
8301"soldiers, they fill many specialist roles in the alien war machine, "
8302"positions in which Tamans seem to be the most numerous. Complex weapons and "

8411"Our autopsy of this new alien -- the Shevaar -- has been very interesting. "
8412"It's a significant departure from the more humanoid Tamans, possessing "
8413"digitigrade legs and a small tail that seems to be a remnant of this "
8414"species's continuing evolution. The creature also appears to be completely "
8415"blind. It lacks eyes and any other kind of organ that could be used to "
8416"process visual light. However, it seems to have other interesting organs to "
8417"make up for this deficiency.\n"
8418"\n"
8419"First off, the Shevaar looks like the unholy merger of a man and a lizard. "
8420"Unlike most Earth lizards, however, the alien is warm-blooded and its brain "
8421"is similar in size to our own -- probably slightly larger. Its massive feet "
8422"are surprisingly springy, and it can cover large amounts of ground in a "
8423"long, leaping gait. The large hands seem to have no problem wielding the "
8424"many varieties of alien weaponry.\n"
8425"\n"
8426"The results of the autopsy are no less interesting. Upon cutting upon the "
8427"chest, we find that the rib cage is a solid shield of bone down the front, "
8428"reinforced with stiff cartilege. The makeup of the bones is different from "
8429"ours as well, made up mostly of carbon rather than calcium, with traces of "
8430"metal that make them extremely hard and tough. Knives and bullets will have "
8431"a great deal of trouble penetrating it, and it will be even harder to find "
8432"vital organs to damage. Any body mass that isn't shielded by bone seems to "
8433"be made up only of lean, wiry muscle.\n"
8434"\n"
8435"The brain is particularly heavily-defended. Several layers of horn wrap "
8436"around it like an impenetrable suit of armour. From the marks of wear and "
8437"tear around this area, we surmise that these aliens regularly engage in "
8438"vigorous head-butting, probably as part of their mating rituals. A small, "
8439"omnivorous mouth protrudes from the mass of bone and leads down to a simple "
8440"but functional digestive tract.\n"
8441"\n"
8442"There are more organs in the head than just the brain and the mouth, "
8443"however. Behind the curls of bone there is a set of three organs that seem "
8444"to detect infrared radiation. This is apparently what the Shevaar uses in "
8445"lieu of eyes. We conclude that the sensitivity of these organs is roughly "
8446"comparable to that of a human wearing PHALANX-standard IR Goggles.\n"
8447"\n"
8448"From the autopsy and our analysis of battlefield footage, we can conclude "
8449"the following:\n"
8450"\n"
8451"- The Shevaar see in infrared. This will make it difficult to hide from them "
8452"or approach them undetected.\n"
8453"\n"
8454"- They seem to wear no armour to preserve their natural mobility. This "
8455"allows them to employ effective hit-and-run tactics.\n"
8456"\n"
8457"- Shevaar bodies are highly resistant to impact and cutting damage, and "
8458"their compact internals are not easily damaged by concussion or explosives. "
8459"However, their scaly hides provide little protection from fire, lasers or "
8460"electricity.\n"
8461"\n"
8462"Shevaar are most often used as fast, armoured scouts. They're extremely "
8463"effective in this role, combining high mobility with extended vision "
8464"capabilities, and the aliens seem to have no shortage of these creatures. "
8465"They sometimes fill specialist or command roles, unlike Ortnoks, but these "
8466"tasks are still usually taken by Tamans whenever the two races are deployed "
8467"together.\n"
8468"\n"
8469"When not engaged in combat, Shevaar spend most of their time as scouts or "
8470"skirmishers, or as herders for captured humans.\n"
8471"\n"
8472"There is a complex set of implants in the subject's throat that will require "
8473"further research to be fully understood. I will send you a more detailed "
8474"analysis along with a research proposal.\n"
8475"\n"
8476"We should be careful whenever we encounter these aliens in the field. They "
8477"are fast and dangerous skirmishers who prefer to fight from cover, and "
8478"should be pursued and kept under fire at all times when discovered, as long "
8479"as this does not overextend our position. Exposing our team's flanks or rear "
8480"to a squad of Shevaar could have disastrous results. Although grenades are "

8659"Our autopsy of this new alien -- the Shevaar -- has been very interesting. "
8660"It's a significant departure from the more humanoid Tamans and Ortnoks, "
8661"possessing digitigrade legs and a small tail that seems to be a remnant of "
8662"this species's continuing evolution. The creature also appears to be "
8663"completely blind. It lacks eyes and any other kind of organ that could be "
8664"used to process visual light. However, it seems to have other interesting "
8665"organs to make up for this deficiency.\n"
8666"\n"
8667"First off, the Shevaar looks like the unholy merger of a man and a lizard. "
8668"Unlike most Earth lizards, however, the alien is warm-blooded and its brain "
8669"is similar in size to our own -- probably slightly larger. Its massive feet "
8670"are surprisingly springy, and it can cover large amounts of ground in a "
8671"long, leaping gait. The large hands seem to have no problem wielding the "
8672"many varieties of alien weaponry.\n"
8673"\n"
8674"The results of the autopsy are no less interesting. Upon cutting upon the "
8675"chest, we find that the rib cage is a solid shield of bone down the front, "
8676"reinforced with stiff cartilege. The makeup of the bones is different from "
8677"ours as well, made up mostly of carbon rather than calcium, with traces of "
8678"metal that make them extremely hard and tough. Knives and bullets will have "
8679"a great deal of trouble penetrating it, and it will be even harder to find "
8680"vital organs to damage. Any body mass that isn't shielded by bone seems to "
8681"be made up only of lean, wiry muscle.\n"
8682"\n"
8683"The brain is particularly heavily-defended. Several layers of horn wrap "
8684"around it like an impenetrable suit of armour. From the marks of wear and "
8685"tear around this area, we surmise that these aliens regularly engage in "
8686"vigorous head-butting, probably as part of their mating rituals. A small, "
8687"omnivorous mouth protrudes from the mass of bone and leads down to a simple "
8688"but functional digestive tract.\n"
8689"\n"
8690"There are more organs in the head than just the brain and the mouth, "
8691"however. Behind the curls of bone there is a set of three organs that seem "
8692"to detect infrared radiation. This is apparently what the Shevaar uses in "
8693"lieu of eyes. We conclude that the sensitivity of these organs is roughly "
8694"comparable to that of a human wearing PHALANX-standard IR Goggles.\n"
8695"\n"
8696"From the autopsy and our analysis of battlefield footage, we can conclude "
8697"the following:\n"
8698"\n"
8699"- The Shevaar see in infrared. This will make it difficult to hide from them "
8700"or approach them undetected.\n"
8701"\n"
8702"- They carry mostly light equipment to preserve their natural mobility. This "
8703"allows them to employ effective hit-and-run tactics.\n"
8704"\n"
8705"- Shevaar bodies are highly resistant to impact and cutting damage, and "
8706"their compact internals are not easily damaged by concussion or explosives. "
8707"However, their scaly hides provide little protection from fire, lasers or "
8708"electricity.\n"
8709"\n"
8710"Shevaar are most often used as fast, armoured scouts. They're extremely "
8711"effective in this role, combining high mobility with extended vision "
8712"capabilities, and the aliens seem to have no shortage of these creatures. "
8713"The Shevaar seem to be located between Tamans and Ortnoks in the nebulous "
8714"alien hierarchy, in that they sometimes fill specialist or command roles, "
8715"unlike Ortnoks, but these tasks are still usually taken by Tamans whenever "
8716"the two races are deployed together.\n"
8717"\n"
8718"When not engaged in combat, Shevaar spend most of their time as scouts or "
8719"skirmishers, or as herders for captured humans.\n"
8720"\n"
8721"We should be careful whenever we encounter these aliens in the field. They "

8742"My team and I have completed the disassembly and autopsy of the alien "
8743"creature we discovered. Here is my summary of our findings.\n"
8744"\n"
8745"We first assumed the object was a robot, but upon investigation we found a "
8746"small biomass at its core. This biological alien core is encased in a shell "
8747"of sensors which we believe interpret its signals to operate the electrical "
8748"machinery. For all intents and purposes, this alien is little more than a "
8749"\"brain\" in charge of a complex device. Calling it a brain may be too "
8750"generous. We don't believe it is large enough to undertake mental processes "
8751"more complex than basic motor skills, but troops report seeing it coordinate "
8752"closely with other aliens on the battlefield.\n"
8753"\n"
8754"The device itself is a small, but heavy, mobile disk, able to hover above "
8755"the ground. Because of its aerial movement, it is able to cross the "
8756"battlefield rapidly. Our soldiers will need to take it down before it gets "
8757"in range, which is no small feat considering its size and movement "
8758"capabilities.\n"
8759"\n"
8760"The models we discovered are equipped with a mounted plasma weapon which is "
8761"able to fire single rounds. Anyone caught within range will be very sorry. "
8762"Given its brain size and limited functionality, we believe this alien is "
8763"engineered for light combat missions -- perhaps it plays a reconnaissance "
8764"role.\n"

8770"Commander,\n"
8771"\n"
8772"The autopsy and evaluation of the green alien specimen is complete. I'm "
8773"hereby submitting my summary for your review.\n"
8774"\n"
8775"The first thing we noticed about this species, which has been named the "
8776"'Ortnok', is its size. Its appearence is like a brutish, hulking caricature "
8777"of a man, something that can be quite disturbing to our agents in the field, "
8778"but we've confirmed that the Ortnok is in no way genetically related to "
8779"humanity.\n"
8780"\n"
8781"In proportion to its body weight, the Ortnok has more muscle than a "
8782"professional body builder. At first we concluded this was solely the product "
8783"of an extreme-heavy-gravity homeworld, but subsequent hormone and toxicology "
8784"work on our specimen have revealed something interesting. The subject seems "
8785"to have been raised from birth on a heavy diet of genetic tampering and "
8786"anabolic steroids. This, combined with the incredible density of the muscle "
8787"tissue, makes the Ortnok physically stronger than any biological entity on "
8788"Earth.\n"
8789"\n"
8790"During our first incisions, we were surprised to find the Ortnok to be "
8791"without blood. It has lungs, viscera and something akin to digestive organs, "
8792"but no liver or heart that we can identify. Instead of veins there is a very "
8793"well-developed system of nerve tubes, filled with a kind of electrically "
8794"conductive gel, that seems to power and control the muscles by direct "
8795"electrical stimulation. The needed electricity is generated through "
8796"digestion of organic matter and stored in a set of large eel-like organs "
8797"underneath the lungs. The nervous system itself is nourished by the leftover "
8798"products of the digestion process by way of veins filled with pressurised "
8799"air. The whole chest cavity has been richly furnished with armour plating "
8800"inserted just underneath the leathery green skin.\n"
8801"\n"
8802"The eyes are covered with surgically-implanted lenses that improve the "
8803"Ortnok's already excellent vision, stretching it into the infrared spectrum. "
8804"The ears consist of a series of small cavities, three on either side of the "
8805"head, which are surprisingly large and well-developed. Given the evidence we "
8806"must conclude that Ortnoks have acute hearing, though the nose and olfactory "
8807"organs are quite small, atrophied almost to the point of being vestigial.\n"
8808"\n"
8809"From the autopsy and our analysis of battlefield footage, we can conclude "
8810"the following:\n"
8811"\n"
8812"- The brain is fairly small for a hominid of such size, no larger than that "
8813"of Homo erectus, but it is perhaps sufficient for the role of foot soldier. "
8814"Ortnoks certainly don't display any tactical sluggishness on the "
8815"battlefield.\n"
8816"\n"
8817"- The three-fingered hand is able to carry and use a wide variety of "
8818"equipment. However, Ortnoks are most often equipped with heavy weapons to "
8819"match their size.\n"
8820"\n"
8821"- Ortnoks are strong, tough and dangerous. Their internal armour enhances "
8822"their natural endurance even further, making them difficult to take down. "
8823"Armour-piercing rounds or incendiary weapons are recommended. Lasers, "
8824"explosives and cutting weapons will not be very effective due to the "
8825"extensive armouring.\n"
8826"\n"
8827"- All Ortnok specimens we've seen so far were not equipped with reproductive "
8828"organs. From surgical scarring around the groin area, we believe they may "
8829"have been neutered for some reason.\n"
8830"\n"
8831"In combat, specimens seem to be used most often in the role of heavy "
8832"infantry and fire support. They are not particularly accurate with their "
8833"somewhat cumbersome weapons, but when working in numbers they usually lay "
8834"down enough fire to suppress and then annihilate a PHALANX squad. Ortnoks do "
8835"not seem to serve in many specialist capacities; they are never used as "
8836"technicians according to our camera observations, and usually busy "
8837"themselves handling perimeter security for the Tamans when not engaged in "
8838"combat.\n"
8839"\n"
8840"There is a complex set of implants in the subject's throat that will require "
8841"further research to be fully understood. I will send you a more detailed "
8842"analysis along with a research proposal.\n"
8843"\n"
8844"We have no idea quite where the name 'Ortnok' came from. The troops don't "
8845"seem to know, and neither do we. Still, it's as good a name as any, and it "
8846"seems to have stuck.\n"
8847"\n"
8848"That's all I have for you right now, Commander. I'll contact you again as "
8849"soon as something new develops.\n"

8861"We're calling this alien the Combat Hovernet, an acknowledgment of its clear "
8862"combat-oriented mechanical augmentations. But a small biomass, including a "
8863"\"brain\" of sorts, lies at its core and appears to control the machine.\n"
8864"\n"
8865"The entire creature has been wrapped in advanced armour plating and the "
8866"stabilisers which keep it afloat and on-target are more powerful than we "
8867"would expect necessary in a non-combat role. The plasma weaponry installed "
8868"on the alien is capable of firing three-round bursts with an accuracy we're "
8869"not accustomed to from the erratic ammunition. These guys won't be easy to "
8870"knock down and, until they're destroyed, they'll prove to be a serious "

8873"Because they're wrapped in the alien armour worn by other units they're "

8905"The alien attack on Mumbai made our situation painfully clear. Their "
8906"technology is far more advanced than ours. The complete inability of "
8907"Commonwealth troops to make a dent in the Mumbai offensive revealed critical "
8908"weaknesses in current military training and equipment. They lost three "
8909"battalions just bringing the aliens to a standstill without inflicting "
8910"significant casualties. PHALANX has to overcome these odds, and to do that "
8911"we need the very best human technology has to offer.\n"
8912"\n"
8913"The Excalibur Program was created not only to find the right weapons to "
8914"combat the alien threat, but also to find armour and other items of "
8915"battlefield utility to help our soldiers complete their missions and return "
8916"to base alive. These items are designed to increase a soldier's combat "
8917"effectiveness or general survivability.\n"
8918"\n"
8919"The use of armour on the battlefield never quite died out completely, though "
8920"it was rendered ineffective in most forms between the early 18th century and "
8921"the late 20th. It began to find its way back to common use in World War 1 in "
8922"the form of steel helmets. This practice continued through WW2, and was "
8923"later superceded by the invention of kevlar. Today, however, kevlar is "
8924"thoroughly obsolete in nearly all its forms; it's now used only by civilians "
8925"and police forces with budget problems. Even more advanced types of 20th-"
8926"century body armour have been rendered useless by modern weapons. New "
8927"materials were needed, materials to make armour stronger and its wearers "
8928"tougher than ever before.\n"
8929"\n"
8930"Surprisingly, several ancient files we've unearthed seem to confirm that "
8931"PHALANX was responsible for some amazing technological breakthroughs in the "
8932"past, technologies that were later adopted across the world. Every attempt "
8933"at producing artificial spider silk had failed, but researchers at the "
8934"PHALANX Pacific Operations Command base finally managed it in 2017. Their "
8935"technique is still in use today, centred around a device called the 'organic "
8936"loom'; a large feeding armature supporting hundreds of individual silk "
8937"glands and spinnerets, designed solely for the mass-production of spider "
8938"silk.\n"
8939"\n"
8940"The first widespread use of military combat armour made from spider silk "
8941"came as a joint effort by NATO in 2023, after ballistic tests proved that "
8942"Chinese rounds tore right through their aging standard-issue kevlar vests. "
8943"The armour itself is a layercake of spider silk and treated ultra high "
8944"molecular weight polyethylene, giving it astonishing strength and "
8945"flexibility. The resulting fabric is about 18 times stronger than steel and "
8946"provides a performance increase over kevlar that is estimated between 300 "
8947"and 400%. Suits made primarily from polyethylene became obsolete after "
8948"artificial spider silk was released into the wider market, and the new "
8949"composite armour soon replaced it in military use throughout the world. The "
8950"armour has been upgraded to move with the times, being so effective that it "
8951"is still in common use today.\n"
8952"\n"
8953"The Combat Armour's only disadvantage is its relatively high weight compared "
8954"to older suits, but this is mainly due to the number of layers required to "
8955"properly protect against modern weapons. The weight is evenly distributed, "
8956"making it quite comfortable to wear and much less bulky than experimental "

9203"Commander, we've successfully prototyped our new powered armour. The "
9204"prototype is waiting in R&D if you'd like to have a go in it yourself.\n"
9205"\n"
9206"Our production design is geared towards maximum protection. It is, in a "
9207"nutshell, an airtight suit of armour with servo-assisted joints and an on-"
9208"board control system. The outer skin is a flexible three-layer composite, "
9209"with outer layers consisting of nanotube-fullerene fabric, and an inner "
9210"layer of special polymer gel, mixed with Wolfram-Molybdene powder. When the "
9211"outer layer of the composite is burned, the gel evaporates instantly, "
9212"dissipating the heat, and the metal powder will create a cloud around the "
9213"damaged area, thus creating a local bloom effect that will consume much of "
9214"the energy.\n"
9215"\n"
9216"The inside consists of a thick layer of memory gel covered by an "
9217"electrically sensitive lining. The gel allows the suit to be fitted to a "
9218"range of heights and body shapes, so hopefully we shouldn't have to custom-"
9219"build every suit to fit one specific soldier. The inner lining is an "
9220"important part of the control system; it detects nerve impulses through the "
9221"wearer's skin, interprets these signals, and uses them to predict the "
9222"wearer's movements before they're made. This allows the suit to move "
9223"simultaneously with the body rather than resisting the user's movements.\n"
9224"\n"
9225"A useful side effect of the memory gel is that it can absorb explosive "
9226"force, providing better shelter to explosive effects than any of our "
9227"previous models. Because the suit is entirely sealed, it provides much "
9228"better protection against environmental hazards such as gas and is effective "
9229"at dissipating heat, although a wearer can still be roasted inside the suit "
9230"if he sits in flames long enough. The helmet has built-in sensors to detect "
9231"flashbangs and cushion the wearer against momentary spikes of light and "
9232"noise intended to disorient the enemy.\n"
9233"\n"
9234"I recommend we get this power armour onto the battlefield as soon as "
9235"possible. Some of the soldiers may have difficulties adjusting to the bulky "
9236"suit, but they'll be happy for the protection.\n"

9332"\n"
9333"It was something of a surprise to learn that the alien armour is made of a "
9334"composite of plastics and carbon containing no metal whatsoever. In fact, "
9335"the most important element is something with which humanity is already well-"
9336"acquainted: carbon nanotubes. Carbon nanotubes (also known as CNTs or "
9337"'buckytubes') are cylindrical carbon molecules that are incredibly strong, "
9338"one of the strongest materials known to humankind. They have been relatively "
9339"little-used on Earth because of their extreme cost. No economical means of "
9340"mass-production has been found to date, restricting their use to the most "
9341"expensive programs on Earth, such as aeronautics and space exploration.\n"
9342"\n"
9343"The alien armour uses CNTs as its penetration layer, i.e. the layer that "
9344"stops bullets and other incoming ordnance from penetrating into the body. "
9345"The nanotubes are woven into long latticework patterns and recessed into a "
9346"bed of hard polymer, backed by a layer of semi-liquid gel that very "
9347"effectively dampens the energy of a blow and spreads the remaining force "
9348"across a very large area. The final layer -- woven from flexible aramid "
9349"fibre -- serves to contain the gel and doubles as a spall liner, catching "
9350"any fragments that may be blown loose from the inside of the armour.\n"
9351"\n"
9352"Thanks to the conductive properties of carbon nanotubes, the armour performs "
9353"very well against plasma. This makes sense. It is their weapon of choice and "
9354"we would expect them to know how to protect against it. Because plasma "
9355"weaponry appears to have limited penetration capabilities, the armour is "
9356"able to disperse the heat before it can melt through the protective layers.\n"
9357"\n"
9358"The armour also performs pretty well against ordinary bullets and "
9359"explosives, although it's not very effective against incendiary devices or "
9360"flamethrowers. These weapons raise the atmospheric temperature around the "
9361"wearer so that there is no place to dump the heat, effectively roasting the "
9362"wearer inside his suit.\n"
9363"\n"
9364"Other features of the armour include servo-assisted movement in the boots, "
9365"allowing the wearer to move more quickly, and a curious system built into "
9366"the bracers that automatically assists the wearer's aim by selectively "
9367"applying pressure to parts of the forearm. We are looking into many new uses "
9368"for this technology.\n"
9369"\n"
9370"Adapting this armour to a human body would be impossible due to the "
9371"differences in physique and the difficulty of working with the materials "
9372"involved. However, I've written up a separate research proposal to "
9373"investigate the possibility of designing and mass-producing our own armour "
9374"using the alien suit as a template. It will be in your inbox presently.\n"
9375"\n"
9376"If you'll permit me, I'd like to raise a final issue with you, Commander. "
9377"One of my researchers has toyed with a personal laser project over the last "
9378"couple of months. While we were testing the alien armour, we allowed him to "
9379"experiment with it in his downtime and we were astonished by the results. "
9380"The relatively weak laser beam was hardly reduced as it passed through the "
9381"armor.\n"
9382"\n"
9383"I know that we've long believed that effective man-portable laser weaponry "
9384"is just a myth, but these suprise findings have reinvigorated my team. I'm "
9385"hearing all sorts of interesting proposals. This armour will seriously dent "
9386"our ability to use the aliens' plasma weaponry against them on the "
9387"battlefield. If we could use lasers to pack a reasonable punch into a hand-"

9477"In comparison with the alien body armour, the medium suit has double the "
9478"number of nanotube strands per square centimetre. As a result these plates "

9485"that the overall weight will slow down even an Ortnok. There are numerous "
9486"mini-servos and other mechanical parts that help deal with some of the "
9487"weight, but their effect is limited overall. Other devices are integrated "

9491"The aliens seem to have designed this armour with the war against humanity "
9492"in mind. Besides being virtually bulletproof, its performance against "
9493"lasers, incendiary and plasma weapons is much improved over the Alien Body "
9494"Armour. Aliens wearing this armour will suffer minimal damage from crossing "
9495"open flame or brief shots from our flamethrower, but prolonged exposure will "
9496"still overheat the suit and cook the alien inside.\n"
9497"\n"
9498"In better news, the armour does not fully enclose the alien, leaving some "
9499"skin or breathing passages exposed to air. That means blister gas will "
9500"remain effective, though it will take longer for the gas to reach its full "
9501"effect.\n"

9503"The alien suits won't fit our troops without modifications that would "

9726"Overview\n"
9727"\n"
9728"The first priority of the Extraterrestrial Response Unit is to prepare for a "
9729"time when it may be needed. The PHALANX Containment Facility is an important "
9730"part of any invasion response plan. It contains atmospheric habitation "
9731"chambers, interrogation machinery, nutrition distribution units, and all the "
9732"other apparatus required to sustain any extraterrestrial life that we could "
9733"comprehend.\n"
9734"\n"
9735"Firstly, the airtight habitation chambers provide a place to store and keep "
9736"extraterrestrials (EXT) for a significant period of time. Their atmosphere "
9737"generators are capable of pumping any individual chamber full of any desired "
9738"mix of gases. This can provide an EXT with breathable air for at least "
9739"several weeks, well beyond the expected lifespan for a specimen in our "
9740"research programs. Trace elements that do not occur naturally on Earth may "
9741"be difficult to come by, but the likelihood of this becoming an impediment "
9742"to our research is infinitessimal. In a worst-case scenario, the atmosphere "
9743"generators are designed to allow links to recovered life support equipment.\n"
9744"\n"
9745"Secondly, waldo-operated medical and interrogation apparatus is present in "
9746"each habitation chamber, able to apply sedation, medication or other "
9747"chemical injections via a pneumatic dart launcher, or to administer "
9748"electroshocks for interrogation purposes. There is also a so-called \"panic "
9749"button\" installed on each chamber individually and in the control room for "
9750"every block of chambers. The panic button can immediately incinerate the "
9751"contents of its chamber during an emergency.\n"
9752"\n"
9753"The chambers and corridors of the Containment Facility are specially "
9754"designed to allow EXTs of any shape and size to be transported and held. The "
9755"facility also has a fully-equipped cryo-morgue to store corpses and samples "
9756"for later review.\n"
9757"\n"
9758"\n"
9759"Recommended Doctrine\n"
9760"\n"
9761"In the case of an invasion, the Containment Unit should be used to its full "
9762"extent, storing both live and dead EXTs for research and allowing us to "
9763"examine them in their living state. There is no greater priority than the "
9764"discovery of the thought processes of the extraterrestrial mind, to learn "
9765"their motivations and perhaps find a compromise, an opportunity for "
9766"communication, or a suitable counterstrategy to neutralise the enemy once "
9767"and for all.\n"
9768"\n"
9769"If a PHALANX base were to be attacked, immediate consideration should be "
9770"given to hit the panic button on the entire Containment Facility. Unless "
9771"there are irreplaceable specimens in storage, we cannot risk the attacking "
9772"EXTs freeing their captured comrades. Immediate and complete sedation is "
9773"another, more risky strategy -- however, I stress that we will not win a war "
9774"with half measures.\n"

9877"\n"
9878"To any noble personages reading this report -- yeah, right -- I should warn "
9879"you that I'm somewhat drunk and am dictating the last of my paperwork before "
9880"they close the base down forever. And I'll probably be long-dead before "
9881"anyone digs up any info about this old project, so I can't get in trouble "
9882"for whatever I say here. Just for the record, the bastarding SecDef can get "
9883"buggered with a chainsaw. 'Budget cuts' my ass.\n"
9884"\n"
9885"Anyway, we've made some upgrades to the CC lately, so I've got to submit a "
9886"new report.\n"
9887"\n"
9888"The Command Centre is the nerve centre of any PHALANX base. It coordinates "
9889"all base activity from research to engineering, it gathers and interprets "
9890"data from our radar installations, it serves as a war room for mission "
9891"planning, and it is the C3 (Command/Control/Communications) hub that "
9892"launches and directs our air-to-air interceptions. A base can still operate "
9893"without a functional Command Centre, but it would be blind, deaf and dumb; "
9894"our interceptors couldn't even launch for lack of traffic control.\n"
9895"\n"
9896"The CC is packed floor to ceiling with a brand new H-9000 mainframe and "
9897"state-of-the-art communications gear, all of which is being ripped out by a "
9898"gang of jackhammer-equipped thugs even as we speak. This equipment can't "
9899"function without a power plant to supply it with enough electricity.\n"
9900"\n"
9901"In my experience, most of the command staff actually lives in the CC, but "

9940"\n"
9941"To any noble personages reading this report -- yeah, right -- I should warn "
9942"you that I'm somewhat drunk and am dictating the last of my paperwork before "
9943"they close the base down forever. And I'll probably be long-dead before "
9944"anyone digs up any info about this old project, so I can't get in trouble "
9945"for whatever I say here. Just for the record, the bastarding SecDef can get "
9946"buggered with a chainsaw. 'Budget cuts' my ass.\n"
9947"\n"
9948"Anyway, we've made some upgrades to the CC lately, so I've got to submit a "
9949"new report.\n"
9950"\n"
9951"The Command Centre is the nerve centre of any PHALANX base. It coordinates "
9952"all base activity from research to engineering, it gathers and interprets "
9953"data from our radar installations, it serves as a war room for mission "
9954"planning, and it is the C3 (Command/Control/Communications) hub that "
9955"launches and directs our air-to-air interceptions. A base can still operate "
9956"without a functional Command Centre, but it would be blind, deaf and dumb; "
9957"our interceptors couldn't even launch for lack of traffic control.\n"
9958"\n"
9959"The CC is packed floor to ceiling with a brand new H-9000 mainframe and "
9960"state-of-the-art communications gear, all of which is being ripped out by a "
9961"gang of jackhammer-equipped thugs even as we speak. This equipment can't "
9962"function without a power plant to supply it with enough electricity.\n"
9963"\n"
9964"In my experience, most of the command staff actually lives in the CC, but "
9965"I'm told that lower-ranking individuals do get to see their bunks once every "

10008"The Base Entrance is the first structure built at any new PHALANX location. "
10009"It is the primary -- and sometimes only -- way for equipment and personnel "
10010"to enter the base. It consists of a vehicle ramp and a stairway that allow "
10011"easy movement between base and surface. A small, camouflaged gatehouse is "

10103"\n"
10104"\n"
10105"Overview\n"
10106"\n"
10107"Missiles have gotten more and more dangerous since World War 2, while "
10108"countermeasure technologies have only been becoming effective since the "
10109"start of the 21st century. In a contest between attack and defence, the "
10110"attacker has always had the advantage. However, this has not deterred the "
10111"aliens from developing defences to blow our minds.\n"
10112"\n"
10113"As an example, GEU forces have engaged alien craft with SAMs (Surface-to-Air "
10114"Missiles) in the skies above Bonn. Forty missiles were launched from "
10115"batteries across Europe while they had radar lock on two of the alien craft. "
10116"Later, nearby infantry units fired between twelve and fifteen shoulder-"
10117"mounted anti-air weapons.\n"
10118"\n"
10119"The number of hits scored? One. Just one. The UFO suffered a minor drop in "
10120"acceleration during its landing at Bonn and later took off again without a "
10121"hitch.\n"
10122"\n"
10123"The conclusions are obvious: alien EW (Electronic Warfare) capability is "
10124"miles in advance of our own. However, we at PHALANX have made a thorough "
10125"study of the sole hit scored, and it was not a matter of luck. What happened "
10126"is that the UFO exposed itself at a less stealthy angle while dodging other "
10127"incoming munitions, allowing the missile to hold lock all the way to its "
10128"target.\n"
10129"\n"
10130"This proves that the aliens are not invulnerable to our missiles. We simply "
10131"need the best ones for the job. These realisations have led us to adapt some "
10132"old missile battery plans and reequip them with brand-new launchers. Our "
10133"results are promising.\n"
10134"\n"
10135"The battery consists of 4 launchers that 'pop up' to the surface when "
10136"engaging a target. Each launcher carries 20 of the AA51 \"Cicada\" SAM. This "
10137"is the most advanced missile on Earth, packing more electronics than an "
10138"airliner, designed to knock enemy aircraft right out of the sky regardless "
10139"of how fast they're going. There is no better emergency defence weapon on "
10140"the planet at the time of this writing.\n"
10141"\n"
10142"Against alien craft, the \"Cicada\"'s chances to hit will still be low, but "
10143"in sufficient numbers it will hurt them. The missile and its electronics "
10144"suite are of course highly expensive, well outside our budget range in the "
10145"numbers required to succesfully engage incoming UFOs. Fortunately the UN has "
10146"agreed to supply us all standard SAMs from its own strategic reserves at no "
10147"cost to us.\n"
10148"\n"
10149"\n"
10150"Recommended Doctrine\n"
10151"\n"
10152"If built at one of our bases, the missile battery can be ordered to engage "
10153"any UFO in range or wait until a UFO is identified as preparing to attack "
10154"the base in question. This decision is up to the Base Commander. Assisting "
10155"our interceptors by 'softening up' a UFO with SAMs would help take some of "
10156"the pressure off our pilots and aircraft, but there is simply no way to "
10157"completely hide our missile launches despite our best attempts to camouflage "
10158"them. Repeated large-scale launches will give away our position sooner or "
10159"later.\n"
10160"\n"
10161"The missile battery will be at moderate risk during a base attack. It is "
10162"designed to prevent base attacks; if one has gotten through, it should no "
10163"longer matter to the current attackers unless they're paving the way for a "
10164"follow-up. It may be a tempting target of opportunity, however, because "
10165"while our missiles are well-protected they will detonate if subjected to "
10166"enough abuse. An explosion in the missile battery could have disastrous "
10167"effects on the facility and the base at large.\n"

10271"By: Gen. E. Baxter, Base Commander, PHALANX, Pacific Operations Command\n"
10272"\n"
10273"\n"
10274"\n"
10275"Overview\n"
10276"\n"
10277"Due to the recent restructuring of our airfleet, we've had to make a "
10278"complete reassessment and redesign of our hangar facilities. The VTOL "
10279"(Vertical Take-Off and Landing) requirement for all new PHALANX aircraft has "
10280"eliminated our need for runways. This has allowed us to move all hangar "
10281"facilities into the actual base to improve security and response times.\n"
10282"\n"
10283"The Large Hangar provides underground space to store and maintain 1 large "
10284"VTOL aircraft. Repairs, rearmament and refuelling can be carried out in "
10285"complete obscurity. The aircraft never even sees the light of day until it's "
10286"time for launch. During a launch, the hangar roof folds open and the large "
10287"hydraulic lift raises the aircraft to a position above the roof where it can "
10288"safely take off.\n"
10289"\n"
10290"For landing procedures, the lift features several tall catchhooks that -- "
10291"once engaged by the undercarrige of a hovering pilot -- gently pull the "
10292"aircraft down into a landing position. The catchhooks can intelligently "
10293"adjust their own grip and even pass the grip from hook to hook to properly "
10294"line up the undercarriage for landing. Once the catchhooks have snared the "
10295"undercarriage and pulled it down to the landing surface, all the pilot needs "
10296"to do is power down his engines. The system is simple and easy to use once a "
10297"pilot gets the hang of it.\n"
10298"\n"
10299"A nearly-identical system has been implemented for the Small Hangar.\n"
10300"\n"
10301"The Large Hangar cannot house small craft due to incompatible support "
10302"equipment such as fuel lines.\n"
10303"\n"
10304"\n"
10305"Recommended Doctrine\n"
10306"\n"
10307"The primary function of the Large Hangar is to house dropships for rapid "
10308"deployment of troops to sites of alien activity. Alternately it can house "
10309"and support larger combat craft. Please refer to specific aircraft files to "
10310"review their capabilities and deployment strategy.\n"
10311"\n"
10312"Every PHALANX aircraft requires 1 hangar of appropriate size for storage, "
10313"maintenance and deployment.\n"
10314"\n"
10315"Hangars are a particularly vulnerable installation due to their direct "
10316"connection to the surface. They will be a primary point of entrance for any "
10317"extraterrestrial attackers. They are an extreme damage risk, filled with "
10318"volatiles such as jet fuel and possibly high-explosive aircraft munitions. "
10319"Worse, any aircraft left behind at the base will be a highly tempting "
10320"target; severe damage to our interceptors -- or even more frightening, the "
10321"dropship -- might put us out of action for weeks.\n"
10322"\n"
10323"If possible, all aircraft should be scrambled before an impending base "
10324"attack and moved out of the area until the attack is over. They may be "
10325"engaged in the air by an approaching UFO, but at least they will have the "
10326"advantage of being able to manoeuvre. Still, this may not always be a viable "
10327"tactic. Scrambling our craft within range of a heavily-armed attack ship "
10328"could have more disastrous results than leaving them in their hangars, as "
10329"tempting a target as that would make them.\n"

10347"\n"
10348"\n"
10349"\n"
10350"Overview\n"
10351"\n"
10352"Due to the recent restructuring of our airfleet, we've had to make a "
10353"complete reassessment and redesign of our hangar facilities. The VTOL "
10354"(Vertical Take-Off and Landing) requirement for all new PHALANX aircraft has "
10355"eliminated our need for runways. This has allowed us to move all hangar "
10356"facilities into the actual base to improve security and response times.\n"
10357"\n"
10358"The Large Hangar provides underground space to store and maintain 1 large "
10359"VTOL aircraft. Repairs, rearmament and refuelling can be carried out in "
10360"complete obscurity. The aircraft never even sees the light of day until it's "
10361"time for launch. During a launch, the hangar roof folds open and the large "
10362"hydraulic lift raises the aircraft to a position above the roof where it can "
10363"safely take off.\n"
10364"\n"
10365"For landing procedures, the lift features several tall catchhooks that -- "
10366"once engaged by the undercarrige of a hovering pilot -- gently pull the "
10367"aircraft down into a landing position. The catchhooks can intelligently "
10368"adjust their own grip and even pass the grip from hook to hook to properly "
10369"line up the undercarriage for landing. Once the catchhooks have snared the "
10370"undercarriage and pulled it down to the landing surface, all the pilot needs "
10371"to do is power down his engines. The system is simple and easy to use once a "
10372"pilot gets the hang of it.\n"
10373"\n"
10374"A nearly-identical system has been implemented for the Small Hangar.\n"
10375"\n"
10376"The Large Hangar cannot house small craft due to incompatible support "
10377"equipment such as fuel lines.\n"
10378"\n"
10379"\n"
10380"Recommended Doctrine\n"
10381"\n"
10382"The primary function of the Large Hangar is to house dropships for rapid "
10383"deployment of troops to sites of alien activity. Alternately it can house "
10384"and support larger combat craft. Please refer to specific aircraft files to "
10385"review their capabilities and deployment strategy.\n"
10386"\n"
10387"Every PHALANX aircraft requires 1 hangar of appropriate size for storage, "
10388"maintenance and deployment.\n"
10389"\n"
10390"Hangars are a particularly vulnerable installation due to their direct "
10391"connection to the surface. They will be a primary point of entrance for any "
10392"extraterrestrial attackers. They are an extreme damage risk, filled with "
10393"volatiles such as jet fuel and possibly high-explosive aircraft munitions. "
10394"Worse, any aircraft left behind at the base will be a highly tempting "
10395"target; severe damage to our interceptors -- or even more frightening, the "
10396"dropship -- might put us out of action for weeks.\n"
10397"\n"
10398"If possible, all aircraft should be scrambled before an impending base "
10399"attack and moved out of the area until the attack is over. They may be "
10400"engaged in the air by an approaching UFO, but at least they will have the "
10401"advantage of being able to manoeuvre. Still, this may not always be a viable "
10402"tactic. Scrambling our craft within range of a heavily-armed attack ship "
10403"could have more disastrous results than leaving them in their hangars, as "
10404"tempting a target as that would make them.\n"

10429"Overview\n"
10430"\n"
10431"This conflict is going to be ugly, Commander. In order to treat the heavily-"
10432"injured battlefield casualties we're going to see, we need advanced "
10433"facilities with equipment no standard civilian or military hospital has "
10434"available. This much is obvious; hundreds died needlessly in Mumbai "
10435"hospitals because no proper machinery was available to treat the horrific "
10436"bone-deep plasma burns inflicted by the alien weapons. We must be better "
10437"prepared than that.\n"
10438"\n"
10439"The old PHALANX hospital designs are woefully inadequate to deal with the "
10440"coming storm. They have never been updated since their creation in 1960 and "
10441"contained little to no purpose-designed equipment. In the end we've had to "
10442"completely replace them with new plans created by myself, with the help of "
10443"Cdr. Navarre and our building experts. How the previous management expected "
10444"to deal with battle wounds from unknown alien weaponry I will never know.\n"
10445"\n"
10446"As it stands, our hospital facilities are now the finest in the world. We "
10447"are the leading experts in treating burn trauma, especially the removal and "
10448"regeneration of charred tissue. We encourage injured flesh to regrow itself "
10449"through intensive therapy which includes a heavy course of drugs, electrical "
10450"nerve and muscle stimulation, and nanobot infusions directly into the wound. "
10451"Theoretically, we should be able to restore any living human being to full "
10452"health in six weeks. This includes psychological evaluation and injury "
10453"counselling. Lighter injuries will of course take less time to heal.\n"
10454"\n"
10455"We also have facilities to carry out amputation and major bionic surgery. "
10456"Powerful cybernetic limbs have been made available to us by our military "
10457"sources around the world, as well as armoured torso cages, electronic eyes "
10458"and other internal machinery. These can be installed into our soldiers at "
10459"the Hospital facility to upgrade their combat efficiency if we can afford "
10460"the high cost and convalescence time.\n"
10461"\n"
10462"The Hospital requires a Power Plant to fuel its high and continuous "
10463"electricity demand.\n"
10464"\n"
10465"\n"
10466"Recommended Doctrine\n"
10467"\n"
10468"Every base with armed-response troops should contain a Hospital for "
10469"treatment. If there is no PHALANX Hospital available, soldiers will have to "
10470"be sent out to standard hospitals where suboptimal treatment could result in "
10471"a permanent loss of ability or even death.\n"
10472"\n"
10473"The advantages of upgrading our soldiers with mechanical parts should be "
10474"obvious. These procedures can only be performed on a healthy body; "
10475"convalescing troops who have sustained recent physical hardships or surgery "
10476"must complete their convalescence before they can become eligible for bionic "
10477"upgrades. Keep in mind also that bionic limb or eye replacement may have a "
10478"negative impact on the patient's morale.\n"
10479"\n"
10480"Tactically, the Hospital is a moderate threat area. The aliens may try to "
10481"kill our wounded and deprive us of proper medical facilities, but it is "
10482"relatively unlikely that any attackers would select the Hospital as their "
10483"primary target. Still, if we are attacked, a guard should be posted at the "

10734"\n"
10735"\n"
10736"\n"
10737"Overview\n"
10738"\n"
10739"There is a reason why PHALANX labs have been considered the best in the US "
10740"for the past 50 years. We invented aircraft Stealth technology in the 1960s "
10741"with the XD4 stealth interceptor and have remained at the forefront with the "
10742"first production of artificial spider silk four years ago. These are the "
10743"results of combining the brightest people with the finest equipment "
10744"available. By keeping ourselves at the forefront, we ensure readiness "
10745"against a possible extraterrestrial threat.\n"
10746"\n"
10747"Our new laboratories are equipped for any kind of research; biotechnology, "
10748"nanotechnology, high-energy lasers, particle physics and more. There is "
10749"nothing that can fit inside the laboratory's walls that cannot be properly "
10750"studied, dissected or disassembled. It comes standard with growing vats that "
10751"can create any organic matter we might need, hologram projectors for testing "
10752"and 3D simulation, laser and maser installations, a miniature tokamak fusion "
10753"chamber for plasma research, and a powerful particle accelerator.\n"
10754"\n"
10755"Any one of these installations would cost a fortune for a civilian operation "
10756"or military contractor, but due to our experience and efficiency, we can "
10757"build and maintain all of them at a fraction of the cost. Project times are "
10758"also greatly reduced by having many types of equipment available at a "
10759"moment's notice. Our high-level research makes full and continuous use of "
10760"all of it.\n"
10761"\n"
10762"As long as we keep receiving the funding we need, the laboratory will remain "
10763"one of the most essential parts of our defence strategy. In order to defeat "
10764"any enemy, we must first come to know him, perhaps even understand him. To "
10765"do that we'll need the best research facilities humanity can build, and ours "
10766"are it.\n"
10767"\n"
10768"The Laboratory requires a working Power Plant and Command Centre to "
10769"function.\n"
10770"\n"
10771"\n"
10772"Recommended Doctrine\n"
10773"\n"

10815"Overview\n"
10816"\n"
10817"There is a reason why PHALANX labs have been considered the best in the US "
10818"for the past 50 years. We invented aircraft Stealth technology in the 1960s "
10819"with the XD4 stealth interceptor and have remained at the forefront with the "
10820"first production of artificial spider silk four years ago. These are the "
10821"results of combining the brightest people with the finest equipment "
10822"available. By keeping ourselves at the forefront, we ensure readiness "
10823"against a possible extraterrestrial threat.\n"
10824"\n"
10825"Our new laboratories are equipped for any kind of research; biotechnology, "
10826"nanotechnology, high-energy lasers, particle physics and more. There is "
10827"nothing that can fit inside the laboratory's walls that cannot be properly "
10828"studied, dissected or disassembled. It comes standard with growing vats that "
10829"can create any organic matter we might need, hologram projectors for testing "
10830"and 3D simulation, laser and maser installations, a miniature tokamak fusion "
10831"chamber for plasma research, and a powerful particle accelerator.\n"
10832"\n"
10833"Any one of these installations would cost a fortune for a civilian operation "
10834"or military contractor, but due to our experience and efficiency, we can "
10835"build and maintain all of them at a fraction of the cost. Project times are "
10836"also greatly reduced by having many types of equipment available at a "
10837"moment's notice. Our high-level research makes full and continuous use of "
10838"all of it.\n"
10839"\n"
10840"As long as we keep receiving the funding we need, the laboratory will remain "
10841"one of the most essential parts of our defence strategy. In order to defeat "
10842"any enemy, we must first come to know him, perhaps even understand him. To "
10843"do that we'll need the best research facilities humanity can build, and ours "
10844"are it.\n"
10845"\n"
10846"The Laboratory requires a working Power Plant and Command Centre to "
10847"function.\n"

10895"\n"
10896"Overview\n"
10897"\n"
10898"PHALANX has had trouble generating enough power to meet its needs ever since "
10899"the organisation was first conceived in 1955. The old bases were forced to "
10900"constantly pump in electricity from large, non-emitting sources (like "
10901"hydroelectric dams) via many kilometres of wiring. They were completely "
10902"dependent on outside power and were paralysed whenever the grid went down. "
10903"It has taken the Russian nuclear revolution to enable full electrical "
10904"autonomy for our underground bases, even when factoring high-energy "
10905"research.\n"
10906"\n"
10907"Our plant of choice is the German HEFR (High-Energy Fission Reactor), a very "
10908"efficient energy amplifier design. It is a subcritical reactor, a reactor "
10909"that produces fission without achieving a sustained chain reaction. Instead "
10910"it uses an external source of neutrons -- in this case a particle "
10911"accelerator -- to stimulate the reaction. This method releases enough power "
10912"to keep the particle accelerator running, as well as a power surplus that is "
10913"redirected to feed the rest of the base.\n"
10914"\n"
10915"The HEFR runs on thorium rather than uranium, and most of its waste output "
10916"will decay naturally to the radioactive level of coal ash in only 500 years. "
10917"By comparison, the half-lives of the isotopes most frequently used in "
10918"nuclear weapons and old reactors are 24,110 years for plutonium (Pu-239) and "
10919"700 million years for uranium (U-235). The short-lived waste output is "
10920"particularly easy to handle for the depleted element postprocessor "
10921"integrated into the design. After a full trip through the postprocessor, the "
10922"HEFR's reactor waste will take only weeks to decay to human-safe levels of "
10923"radioactivity.\n"
10924"\n"
10925"In our design, the reactor core and operational machinery are built into a "
10926"special shell located far deeper than the rest of the base. Only the coolant "
10927"tanks and control/service entrances poke up to the base level. This protects "
10928"against the possible but minuscule risk of a meltdown in case we completely "
10929"lose refrigeration of the core.\n"
10930"\n"
10931"I admit, I copied half of the specifics verbatim from the various briefs "
10932"I've read -- nuclear physics are a touch above my head -- but I understand "
10933"the stats well enough. The power output of one plant is enough to fully meet "
10934"the needs of a standard base. If a base is equipped with many high-energy "
10935"buildings such as laboratories, a second plant may be required, but a "
10936"subsequent increase in base defences and security will be required to "
10937"properly protect it. We can easily and safely store enough fuel on-site for "
10938"a decade of continued operation. A protected container is installed with "
10939"every reactor, and it can be refuelled if necessary.\n"
10940"\n"
10941"\n"
10942"Recommended Doctrine\n"
10943"\n"
10944"Every base needs at least one power plant. Without a power plant, many "
10945"facilities -- including the Command Centre -- can't function. Bases with "
10946"exceptional power use may need two or more to keep all our facilities "
10947"working at top performance.\n"
10948"\n"
10949"Our base defence strategy should pay particular attention to defending the "
10950"power plant. Damage to the coolant tanks could be disastrous; if we lose too "
10951"much coolant a meltdown will be hard to avoid. We may consider stepping down "
10952"the reactor in anticipation of an attack, but it would take a long time to "
10953"get it started up again, during which we wouldn't be able to operate any "

11079"In the case of an emergency, the Living Quarters has a special partition "

11196"Commander, we've had to make extensive changes to our old Radar facility "

11198"I've decided to replace it with this one.\n"
11199"\n"
11200"Our Radar facility is not a large radar array in itself. It's actually a "
11201"control centre for a series of camouflaged dishes placed on high ground "
11202"around the base. There are between 8 and 12 dishes set up for each "
11203"installation, depending on the available space and the dishes' individual "

11277"\n"
11278"Commander, we've had to make extensive changes to our old Radar facility "
11279"designs to bring them up to date. The old report is no longer applicable, so "
11280"I've decided to replace it with this one.\n"
11281"\n"
11282"Our Radar facility is not a large radar array in itself. It's actually a "
11283"control centre for a series of camouflaged dishes placed on high ground "
11284"around the base. There are between 8 and 12 dishes set up for each "
11285"installation, depending on the available space and the dishes' individual "
11286"coverage. Each dish is equipped with several means of detection rather than "
11287"simply radar, as radar has trouble maintaining a lock on alien contacts. "
11288"Supplemental systems include, but are not limited to, infrared and laser "

11407"The Storage facility is the base's repository for ammunition, weapons, and "
11408"other equipment not currently in use. All small-arms, vehicle and aircraft "
11409"ammunition that is not earmarked for emergency response resides in the "
11410"Storage facility. It also serves as a garage for our battlefield vehicles. "
11411"These remain in their bays until mission time, with fully-loaded magazines "
11412"in case of a base attack.\n"
11413"\n"
11414"Cameras and alarms maintain round-the-clock vigilance to ensure no "
11415"unauthorised removals are made. All removals must be approved by the officer "
11416"on duty before the alarm is deactivated. Live ammunition and other sensitive "
11417"equipment such as alien artifacts are kept in locked containers in the "
11418"quartermaster's office behind rigorous security; checking anything out of "
11419"locked storage requires the presence of the base quartermaster and written "
11420"authorisation from the Command Centre.\n"
11421"\n"
11422"All item requisitions necessary for research, production and aircraft "
11423"maintenance are handled by the appropriate officers; no input from the Base "
11424"Commander is required. Only mission equipment and battlefield vehicles "
11425"require the Commander's direct supervision.\n"
11426"\n"
11427"The Storage facility can fit a maximum of 50 standard-sized pallets of "
11428"equipment. The amount of items in a pallet is relatively unimportant, size "
11429"is the main restricting factor with regards to Storage facility space. The "
11430"contents of each individual pallet are scrupulously tracked by magnetic "
11431"labels and detailed punch-card logs.\n"
11432"\n"
11433"It does not depend upon any other base facilities to function.\n"
11434"\n"
11435"\n"
11436"Recommended Doctrine\n"
11437"\n"
11438"In the case of an invasion, we will need all the storage space we can get. "
11439"Large stores of ammunition may need to be squared away for long periods of "
11440"time. Recovered artifacts will need to be adequately contained and "
11441"protected, as anything with nebulous alien capabilities should be kept in "
11442"our explosion-proof lockers or be destroyed. If all the lockers are full, we "
11443"may have no choice in the matter.\n"
11444"\n"
11445"During a base attack, the Storage facility would not be more than a target "

11551"\n"
11552"The PHALANX Workshop is a small-scale production line equipped with the most "
11553"high-tech military manufacturing processes available. It is designed for the "
11554"production of classified materials and parts for which no other facility on "
11555"Earth is equipped; even the replication of extraterrestrial technology.\n"
11556"\n"
11557"All parts produced by the Workshop are machined by hand with as much robotic "
11558"assistance as possible. It requires the most highly-skilled engineers in the "
11559"world to operate its advanced machinery, and to install new machines "
11560"whenever our researchers devise a new or improved production process. The "
11561"Workshop provides working space for up to 10 engineers at once.\n"
11562"\n"
11563"A Power Plant is required to keep the production line going. Without an "
11564"operational plant, all production must be halted until power is restored. "
11565"The Workshop also depends upon a Command Centre to coordinate construction "
11566"efforts.\n"
11567"\n"
11568"\n"
11569"Recommended Doctrine\n"
11570"\n"
11571"During a possible EXT war, we will be depending heavily on Workshop "
11572"facilities to manufacture the weapons we need. H.G. Wells's War of the "
11573"Worlds comes to mind for its frightening depiction of how our present "
11574"technology might fare against an invasion force. Even the A-bomb may not be "
11575"a sufficient deterrent. In a worst-case scenario we may be forced to resort "
11576"to nuclear missiles if we have no other hope of staving off the assault.\n"
11577"\n"
11578"The Workshop is a high-security area due to its sensitive, often classified "
11579"projects. The various hazardous or volatile substances used in production "
11580"make it a dangerous place to be, and it will certainly be at risk during any "
11581"base attack as a target of opportunity or even a moderate-risk mission "
11582"objective. Shutting down our production for any length of time would be a "
11583"victory for any extraterrestrial hostiles, especially if they manage to "
11584"destroy a large project in progress such as the construction of a new "
11585"aircraft.\n"
11586"\n"
11587"Reproducing interplanetary spacecraft technology will be one of the absolute "
11588"necessities if we are ever to take the initiative against an "
11589"extraterrestrial force. We cannot sit on Earth maintaining a defensive "
11590"posture if we wish to put a definitive end to a military conflict. Our "

11668"The Antimatter Storage facility is designed to safely store antimatter for "
11669"later use, at least as safely as antimatter can possibly be stored. It is "
11670"based around an advanced magnetic containment system we've derived from "
11671"alien antimatter technology, which we call the 'inner shell'. The 'outer "
11672"shell' consists of several radiation airlocks over the main passages, a "
11673"heavily-armoured control room, and a host of other security and containment "
11674"measures -- all designed to keep any radiation inside the outer shell.\n"
11675"\n"
11676"The outer shell's design borrows heavily from that of UN nuclear ammo dumps. "
11677"In case of problems in the inner shell, there's an automatic security system "
11678"which will lock down the instant containment drops below safe levels. The "
11679"facility will first close its blast doors, then secure every airlock with "
11680"tungsten locking rods, fill the outer shell atmosphere with radiation-"
11681"retardant gas and inject anti-shock foam behind the walls, and then try to "
11682"contain the inevitable blast.\n"

11688"To understand how dangerous this facility really is, building an Antimatter "
11689"Storage at one of our bases will require us to list that base with the UN "
11690"nuclear site register. At full capacity just one storage facility will be "
11691"containing the equivalent of nearly half a megaton of TNT. While this isn't "
11692"much compared to modern thermonuclear weapons, it's enough to turn the "
11693"entire base and everything inside to cinders in less than a second. It's "
11694"difficult to 'blow up' antimatter, but under the wrong circumstances, it can "
11695"happen.\n"

12542"In the year 2084, Earth is in better shape than it has been for more than a "
12543"century. Perhaps for the first time, peace and cooperation are the norm "
12544"rather than the exception. The current state of affairs, however, can only "
12545"be explained through the brutal history of the 21st century.\n"
12546"\n"
12547"In the first decade of the 21st, the Middle-East was the greatest concern of "
12548"nations around the world. Tensions increased when Iran, Syria, Jordan and "
12549"Afghanistan formed the Middle-Eastern alliance, a political body to unite "
12550"the Islamic world. Soon after, democratic elections in Iraq caused the "
12551"United States to lose control of the country, and Iraq joined the Middle-"
12552"Eastern Alliance along with Pakistan and Lebanon later that year. In a "
12553"panic, Israel threw in its lot with the expanding European Union, thus "
12554"forcing itself to abide by increasingly strict EU laws on human rights and "
12555"warfare. Its military presence in the region was significantly reduced over "
12556"the years as a result.\n"
12557"\n"
12558"However, as 2009 turned into 2010, attentions turned away from the Middle-"
12559"East as the increasingly bold power grabs by China started to make waves. "
12560"The People's Republic had been nibbling away at its neighbours for several "
12561"years, but in December of 2010, after decades of harsh words and grim "
12562"promises, Taiwan was finally conquered by a full-scale Chinese military "
12563"invasion. The UN gave several sternly-worded reprimands which were summarily "
12564"ignored. The international community debated the issue at length, and did "
12565"nothing.\n"
12566"\n"
12567"The Second Cold War between the old United States and China began when China "
12568"annexed North and South Korea in 2012, after secret agents managed to "
12569"disable North Korea's entire nuclear arsenal for the length of the three-day "
12570"invasion. The well-trained and equipped People's Army vastly outnumbered the "
12571"Korean divisions; they occupied both countries long before the Koreans could "
12572"even begin to receive aid from overseas. The move drew even more ire from "
12573"the UN and cooled diplomatic relations between China and Russia for decades "
12574"to come.\n"
12575"\n"
12576"Tensions around the world remained high during the length of the Second Cold "
12577"War, with rebellions the order of the day in the newly-subjugated Chinese "
12578"territories, but ultimately neither China nor the US was ready to commit to "
12579"nuclear annihilation.\n"
12580"\n"
12581"The war technically came to an end in 2031, as the US economy crumbled under "
12582"a crushing military budget and deficit interest rates that exceeded the "
12583"country's entire gross national product. Meanwhile, having become "
12584"increasingly liberal during the Cold War years, China took on the mantle of "
12585"world leader without knowing quite what to do with it. Its leaders perhaps "
12586"became drunk with power, a little too hungry, a little too proud. Using the "
12587"army to try and enforce their decision, they attempted to revert the country "
12588"to the brutal Stalinist oppression of the 20th century. The people did not "
12589"approve.\n"
12590"\n"
12591"The ensuing civil war was like nothing Earth had ever seen. Officers often "
12592"referred to it as the bastard child of Vietnam and the First World War. It "
12593"saw firebombing of entire populations, mass executions of prisoners of war, "
12594"and tactical nuclear strikes on several cities -- including Shanghai, Seoul "
12595"and New Delhi -- on 7 June 2034. Government loyalists dropped a total of six "
12596"50-kiloton devices on heavily-defended rebel positions, including the "
12597"civilian populations the rebels were protecting.\n"
12598"\n"
12599"The loyalist army suffered massive desertions in the days that followed; it "
12600"was the single event that eventually spelled doom for the government. More "
12601"than six million lives were lost before the surrender of loyalist forces on "
12602"15 August 2036, having fought tooth and nail and employed large-scale "
12603"scorched earth tactics as the rebels slowly drove them into the Indian "
12604"Ocean. This is the official ending of the Second Cold War."

12610"The Asian Republic:\n"
12611"\n"
12612"In the years that followed, the reformed Republic of China -- taking up its "
12613"old, pre-Communist name -- slowly relinquished its conquered territories, "
12614"including those seized in centuries past, offering them a choice between "
12615"independence or a seat on the new governmental council as an equal and "
12616"respected part of the new Republic. Having fought on the rebel side "
12617"throughout the civil war, Taiwan was the first to merge with the new "
12618"Republic, reconciling its differences with the mainland after the Communist "
12619"government surrendered. Taiwan quickly became a major player in the new "
12620"council and was instrumental in sending the captured government leaders off "
12621"to The Hague to face a war crimes tribunal. North Korea, another rebel "
12622"nation, also elected to remain in the Republic, sensing opportunities for "
12623"greater economic growth and freedom from dictatorship. They would not be "
12624"disappointed.\n"
12625"\n"
12626"The resurgence of the Chinese economy was dubbed a miracle by contemporary "
12627"historians. The first breakthroughs in nanotechnology were made by Chinese "
12628"researchers, bringing in vast medical-industrial contracts from all over the "
12629"world. Despite old hatreds and mistrust, other east-Asian nations slowly "
12630"joined the Republic, which was soon redubbed the Asian Republic to honour "
12631"its new members. Even Japan eventually joined to bolster its flagging "
12632"economy and a population which had dwindled through the war years. The "
12633"Republic continued mostly true to its principles with the civil war still "
12634"fresh in mind. Over the years it made a reputation for dealing with all its "
12635"member nations in good faith, and built enough trust and solidarity that it "
12636"can now speak with a single voice for all the billions of people of south-"
12637"east Asia.\n"
12638"\n"
12639"Today, the Asian Republic's economy has all but recovered due to the "
12640"commercialisation of nanotech and holographics. It still possesses a strong "
12641"and up-to-date military, trained to a higher standard than any other "
12642"country.\n"
12643"\n"
12644"\n"
12645"\n"
12646"The Revolutionary Countries:\n"
12647"\n"
12648"With the successive fall of both the United States and China, Socialism in "
12649"South-America waxed and waned during the post-war years. The US's economic "
12650"death brought on a surge of revolutionary fervor, swaying several nations "
12651"away from the influence of capitalism. However, with a democratic framework "
12652"already halfway in place in most countries, the ideal of rule of the people "
12653"could for the first time be realised without corruption. This new wave "
12654"proposed to unite the principles of democracy with true Socialist ideals.\n"
12655"\n"
12656"The whole continent watched in horror at the nuking of Shanghai during the "
12657"Second Cold War, televised all over the globe right up to the final second. "
12658"The new wave suffered another major blow when China fell. In that, everyone "
12659"could see a first-hand example of what might happen to the revolution if it "
12660"went the way of dictatorship and totalitarianism. It didn't take long for "
12661"the leaders to respond.\n"
12662"\n"
12663"Several dictator-led countries immediately tried to turn on the thumbscrews, "
12664"trying to head off a rebellion before it began, which caused a huge backlash "
12665"in the larger democratic nations, particularly Cuba, Brazil and Argentina. "
12666"Suddenly, the last remaining kings of South-America were left with no "
12667"friends at all.\n"
12668"\n"
12669"One by one, they caved to public and political pressure and were replaced by "
12670"elected houses. The revolution picked up speed instead of losing it; they "
12671"encouraged greater trade, closer integration, and eventually followed "
12672"Europe's example of open borders. A new network of highways all over the "
12673"continent strengthened economies and allowed far more efficient use of "
12674"arable land. South-America's natural riches were tapped like never before, "
12675"and they demanded fair prices for every bit of it.\n"
12676"\n"
12677"Today, the member nations have merged so closely that they are better known "
12678"as a single body: the Revolutionary Countries. One joint government "
12679"represents the entire continent, and they manage an economical juggernaut "
12680"surpassed only by the Greater European Union. Their military is small but "
12681"has state-of-the-art equipment. Their training is not exceptional.\n"
12682"\n"
12683"\n"
12684"\n"
12685"United America:\n"
12686"\n"
12687"As the US economy started to break down in the late 2020s, more and more "
12688"people abandoned the country for the greener pastures of Canada and, "
12689"ironically, Mexico. The value of the dollar plummeted to unprecedented "
12690"depths, impoverishing millions until its price was fixed by the IMF and the "
12691"international banking community. The country was then saddled with a brutal "
12692"reform plan, requiring it to sell off or mothball over half of its military "
12693"arsenal. To cope with the repayment on sixteen trillion dollars of debt, its "
12694"interest rate was frozen and its exports shifted to technology and luxury "
12695"goods. Successful restructuring of NASA, combined with a functional "
12696"spaceplane prototype, also turned outer space into a money-maker for the "
12697"post-collapse US. Cape Canaveral began offering the cheapest space launches "
12698"anywhere on the planet, first with their prototype, later with fully-"
12699"functional advanced spaceplane designs. This significantly helped the "
12700"beleaguered country claw its way back towards the black.\n"
12701"\n"
12702"The cooperation between North-American nations began with financial aid from "
12703"Canada and Mexico, which saw their exports to the US dipping dangerously and "
12704"wanted to help fix their most important trading partner. The growing number "
12705"of expatriates also served to create closer ties. Then, in the most "
12706"unexpected political turnaround in 2042, Mexico elected the US expatriate "
12707"Esteban Villa-Lobos Garcia to the office of president.\n"
12708"\n"
12709"The election was hotly contested. However, the decision held through two "
12710"recounts, and the new president was inaugurated in July of 2042. Eventually, "
12711"a combination of sound policies and personal charisma brought most of the "
12712"country around on Garcia; and then he proposed the Tomorrow Plan.\n"
12713"\n"
12714"Under the plan, Mexico, Canada and the USA would unite into one country to "
12715"reawaken the North American superpower. In a number of controversial public "
12716"votes, the general population in all three countries gave majority support "
12717"for the Tomorrow Plan; 52% in the United States, 64% in Canada, and 71% in "
12718"Mexico. The merger was eventually finalised in 2050, creating a United "
12719"America out of the dominant powers of the New World. The booming space "
12720"industry quickly spread throughout the new country, and despite a few "
12721"stumbles along the way, North America steamed headlong towards recovery.\n"
12722"\n"
12723"Today, UA's debt has decreased from sixteen trillion to two, and standards "
12724"of living have nearly recovered to what they were before the crash. UA has "
12725"the most advanced space industry on the planet; NASA performs almost 70% of "
12726"commercial space launches around the globe. It exports vast quantities of "
12727"goods to every other nation and is projected to return to solvency in less "
12728"than three years. Militarily, the UA is the weakest of all the meganations. "
12729"It has only a small volunteer army and a tiny defence budget as mandated by "
12730"the IMF. However, what forces the UA does have are highly-trained and can "
12731"turn on a dime, able to reach any place in the country within two hours.\n"
12732"\n"
12733"\n"
12734"\n"
12735"The Greater European Union:\n"
12736"\n"
12737"Slowly but surely, the European Union has expanded borders further and "
12738"further with every passing decade. It first moved into the Middle-East when "
12739"it accepted Israel as an associate member in 2011, and then upgraded both "
12740"Israel and Turkey to full membership in 2017. Several Atlantic islands were "
12741"also accepted in the same resolution, making it the single greatest EU "
12742"expansion of the 21st century.\n"
12743"\n"
12744"Following Israel's controversial entrance as an associate member, the EU "
12745"passed stricter laws on human rights, freedom of religion and separation of "
12746"church and state. It was also the first Western superpower to officially "
12747"recognise the Middle-Eastern Alliance, and fostered close relations with the "
12748"Alliance -- despite United States protests -- in the hope of reducing "
12749"culture clash and the ongoing threat of terrorism. For the most part, they "
12750"were successful.\n"
12751"\n"
12752"In 2028, Greenland -- having grown strong due to immigration from the United "
12753"States -- formally declared its independence from Denmark. No battles were "
12754"fought; the Danish government grudgingly recognised the independence due to "
12755"political pressure from other European countries. In the following months, "
12756"Greenland briefly considered joining the US as a protectorate, but "
12757"reconsidered when the EU offered a full membership. This, along with the "
12758"defection of several US island protectorates in the Atlantic, impelled the "
12759"EU to rename itself the 'Greater European Union'.\n"
12760"\n"
12761"In the aftermath of the Second Cold War, the GEU has always been on the "
12762"forefront of political development. It was the only Western nation to second "
12763"the Middle-Eastern Alliance's vote of no confidence on the old United "
12764"Nations, after the UN's complete failure to act during the Chinese expansion "
12765"and eventual civil war. The GEU also strongly supported the Alliance's "
12766"efforts to create a new UN, providing fair representation to all the world's "
12767"nations, and with enough teeth to live up to the principles under which it "
12768"was first created.\n"
12769"\n"
12770"Today, the GEU is the strongest economical and political force in the world. "
12771"However, its vast bureaucracy and large number of members -- members who "
12772"don't always see eye-to-eye -- make it slow to manoeuvre in every way. Its "
12773"military is large and powerful but poorly-integrated, with each individual "
12774"army sticking to the language and traditions of their country. Military "
12775"cooperation is difficult to achieve and requires going through huge amounts "
12776"of red tape. The GEU contributes a majority of UN troops, but they are only "
12777"ever used as peacekepeers. Whether or not the GEU militaries have lost their "
12778"'edge' has been a subject of hot debate in Brussels for many years, and "
12779"there appears to be no decision in sight.\n"
12780"\n"
12781"\n"
12782"\n"
12783"The Middle-Eastern Alliance:\n"
12784"\n"
12785"The rise of the Middle-Eastern Alliance was a surprise to everyone, "
12786"including the people involved. It was designed solely to weaken Western "
12787"influence in the Middle-East. The principal designers and first members -- "
12788"Iran, Syria, Jordan and Afghanistan -- never meant the Alliance to last more "
12789"than a decade, by which time they expected it to fragment and disband under "
12790"the weight of its own differences.\n"
12791"\n"
12792"The Second Cold War changed everything. The People's Republic of China was "
12793"no longer a nearby ally against the West; it became an expanding threat with "
12794"an appetite, casting hungry eyes on Nepal, chunks of India, and possibly "
12795"even the sovereign states on China's western border. Pakistan, Tajikistan "
12796"and Kyrgyzstan rushed into the arms of the Alliance in order to guard "
12797"themselves against invasion. The Arabian subcontinent joined the Alliance "
12798"not a year later, seeking to expand their political pull with the West. "
12799"Without even realising it, they had formed a power block covering nearly the "
12800"entire Middle-East. Their position was simply too good to allow it to "
12801"crumble.\n"
12802"\n"
12803"The expanded Alliance, now recognised by the European Union, stepped onto "
12804"the international stage with knife in hand. They had a stranglehold on most "
12805"of the world's remaining oil supplies and the will to exploit it.\n"
12806"\n"
12807"The Alliance's economic power grew as outside oil reserves dwindled. "
12808"Pharmaceutical manufacturers packed up in droves and moved to the Middle-"
12809"East, the only place left in the world where oil was cheap and plentiful. "
12810"This, along with the many other applications of crude oil, allowed the "
12811"Middle-East to survive the Russian 'nuclear revolution' and the subsequent "
12812"worldwide migration to nuclear power. It continued its expansion with Egypt, "
12813"Uzbekistan, Turkmenistan, and disputed chunks of Africa around the Red Sea. "
12814"The entire Red Sea region was quickly pacified when the Alliance moved in "
12815"its military to assist the new African members.\n"
12816"\n"
12817"Today, the spread of prosperity has turned the Middle-East away from dogma "
12818"and towards secular law and gender equality. It is still ruled by "
12819"individuals -- Sultans, Emirs, Maliks, Presidents and Generals -- but their "
12820"personal power is kept in check by the rest of the Alliance, rulers who do "
12821"not want their colleagues stepping out of line. Political dissent is "
12822"tolerated due to pressure from the EU and other nations, but even in 2084 "
12823"few of the Alliance's member nations have a functioning democratic process.\n"
12824"\n"
12825"The Alliance military is large, fast and mean. It is one of the most elite "
12826"and well-equipped forces in the world, and it uses more permissive rules of "
12827"engagement than either United America or the Asian Republic. Their clause "
12828"for 'acceptable civilian casualties' has been the source of huge amounts of "
12829"criticism from across the world, but the Alliance has stubbornly maintained "
12830"this clause throughout the four decades it has been in effect.\n"
12831"\n"
12832"\n"
12833"\n"
12834"New Africa:\n"
12835"\n"
12836"Born out of violence and strife, New Africa found its unification in "
12837"separation. It languished onwards for three decades into the 21st century, "
12838"as it had done for far too long, with its civil wars and ethnic purges and "
12839"atrocities beyond measure. That is, until several central-African nations "
12840"undertook a massive project in 2039 to break the notorious diamond cartels "
12841"and seize their revenue for long-term national improvement.\n"
12842"\n"
12843"It resulted in a military and economic bloodbath. The UN attempted various "
12844"measures to stop the fighting but, even more toothless than ever before, it "
12845"accomplished nothing. However, the league of nations was eventually joined "
12846"by several others, tired of being pushed around by Western conglomerates, "
12847"and after several years of bitter fighting they were successful in taking "
12848"down the cartels one by one. This left them with some of the largest, most "
12849"advanced diamond and gold mines in the world; it made their combined "
12850"territory the largest single supplier of natural diamonds in the world. It "
12851"also gave them a new sense of what they could accomplish together. The core "
12852"of New Africa was born.\n"
12853"\n"
12854"All the African nations involved in the anti-cartel war, with the exception "
12855"of territories loyal to the Commonwealth of Oceania and the Middle-Eastern "
12856"Alliance, began to work much more closely together, taking cues from South-"
12857"America in building a dependable road network to fuel trade and "
12858"communication. It also allowed a much better distribution of food. Over the "
12859"next thirty years, New Africa completely eliminated famine within its "
12860"borders, which it changed completely to accomodate ethnicity and a desire "
12861"for independence within its territories, and brought socialised public "
12862"health-care to its people at near-ruinous cost. However, it also found new "
12863"exports in the commercialised, sustainable growth of tropical hardwood and "
12864"exotic fruit. The new cooperation made price agreements across the continent "
12865"possible for the first time; like the Revolutionary Countries, New Africa "
12866"forced the rest of the world to pay fairly for all goods and services.\n"
12867"\n"
12868"Today, New Africa is still the weakest of the great powers economically, but "
12869"it is growing fast. It has a large, motivated standing army, but the troops "
12870"are not well-equipped, armed mostly with former US antiques and even century-"
12871"old Soviet equipment. They also have trouble getting to remote locations due "
12872"to frequent equipment failures and the continent's difficult geography. Most "
12873"of the time, the best the New Africans can do is spot UFOs as they land with "
12874"one of thousands of scouts and small patrols out in the country to combat "
12875"poaching and smuggling.\n"
12876"\n"
12877"\n"
12878"\n"
12879"Russia:\n"
12880"\n"
12881"Russia took decades to recover from the fall of the Soviet Union and the "
12882"ravages of the Soviet system on the country's economy. It festered like an "
12883"open wound for the first half of the 21st century, still trying to quash the "
12884"constant rebellions in Chechnya, still trying to reform after 70 years of "
12885"state domination, still trying to get back its lost position as a world "
12886"superpower.\n"
12887"\n"
12888"Things finally started getting better for Russia when then-prime minister "
12889"Yevgeny Karamazov granted complete independence to Chechnya in 2047. While "
12890"the newly official Chechen Republic imploded in a storm of violence about "
12891"who exactly should rule, Russia turned away and set itself to fixing its own "
12892"problems, leaving Chechnya to itself -- and to the new and improved UN, "
12893"which immediately took an interest in trying to stop the bloodshed. "
12894"Unfortunately that wouldn't happen for a long time, and even then Chechnya "
12895"could only return to Russia's sphere of influence, but for the first time it "
12896"did so as a fully-recognised independent voice.\n"
12897"\n"
12898"Economic salvation for Russia -- especially with oil supplies from the "
12899"Middle-East dwindling -- began with drilling the country's own oil in "
12900"Siberia, with new techniques and equipment able to survive the harsh winter "
12901"conditions, and later with the construction of a series of new nuclear power "
12902"plants. Russia invested heavily in research to make the new plants smaller, "
12903"safer and -- more importantly -- sustainable. This involved a switch from "
12904"enriched uranium to thorium as the main nuclear fuel for all the new Russian "
12905"plants, and advanced new designs based upon the 'energy amplifier', a new "
12906"type of fission reactor first test-built near Rome from 2004 to 2011. Two of "
12907"the new reactors even consumed plutonium from dismantled nuclear weapons and "
12908"from the stored waste of older power plants.\n"
12909"\n"
12910"Then, eight years after the Chechen independence, Russia's 'nuclear "
12911"revolution' really came into its own with the invention of the depleted "
12912"element postprocessor, which could convert 90% of an energy amplifier's "
12913"waste into radiation-free elements in weeks instead of centuries. The "
12914"Russians ended the age-old energy crisis almost overnight; nuclear fission "
12915"became safe, relatively clean, and global thorium supplies would see the "
12916"world clear into the year 3000.\n"
12917"\n"
12918"Today, many of the ex-Soviet republics have rejoined Russia, following the "
12919"example of the other great nations, eager to take advantage of the power "
12920"generation and nuclear technology that are now Russia's main exports. The "
12921"nuclear revolution continues even today with the gradual development and "
12922"commercialisation of fusion power. Though its economy is still troubled, the "
12923"country is now in better shape than it has been for centuries -- whether "
12924"under the khans, the czars or the Soviets. Its military is somewhat "
12925"antiquated but highly-trained, well-disciplined and professional, and it "
12926"does not lack for manpower.\n"
12927"\n"
12928"\n"
12929"\n"
12930"The Commonwealth of Oceania:\n"
12931"\n"
12932"The Commonwealth of Nations, a political organisation made up of most of the "
12933"countries of the old British Empire, lost a great deal of power going into "
12934"the Second Cold War. First, Pakistan cut its ties to the Commonwealth when "
12935"joining the Middle-Eastern Alliance. Then, as the United States crashed and "
12936"burned, Britain and Canada became more and more concerned with their own "
12937"parts of the world and let their participation dwindle to nothing. By 2030, "
12938"they were members in name only.\n"
12939"\n"
12940"The growing power of China throughout the war caused a huge expansion in "
12941"military budgets for India and Australia, budgets which their economies had "
12942"trouble supporting. Then, in 2035, India became one more battlefield in the "
12943"Chinese civil war. Veteran government troops easily defeated the Indian "
12944"military in several short but bloody engagements and seized most of the "
12945"country while the rebels pursued.\n"
12946"\n"
12947"Australia pledged a full-scale military intervention along with several "
12948"South-African Commonwealth members. After weeks of brutal fighting, the "
12949"Australian divisions managed to link up with Chinese rebel forces and the "
12950"surviving regiments of the Indian army, and together they nearly annihilated "
12951"the governmental army before the surrender in 2036.\n"
12952"\n"
12953"The cost was high. The conquered parts of India were a wasteland, the "
12954"country had no government left after the nuking of New Delhi, and famines "
12955"were already starting to grip the population. It began ceding worthless "
12956"parts of land to other nations and gave independence to several small "
12957"regions along its border. The remaining Commonwealth nations undertook the "
12958"vast task of reconstructing India, though many abandoned the project and the "
12959"Commonwealth in favour of the other growing superpowers.\n"
12960"\n"
12961"The reconstruction of India eventually united the Commonwealth into one "
12962"great nation, taking advantage of their geographic location around the "
12963"Indian Ocean and the South Pacific to charge strategic tariffs for ships "
12964"passing through their waters. Commonwealth shipping, on the other hand, was "
12965"free from tariffs and quickly rose to dominance in the competitive market. "
12966"Later, with the breaking of the diamond cartels in Africa, the Commonwealth "
12967"seized several leaderless mines inside its borders and used them to their "
12968"full potential.\n"
12969"\n"
12970"Today, the Commonwealth of Nations is better known as the 'Commonwealth of "
12971"Oceania' or just 'Oceania'. Since its inception it has accepted several non-"
12972"Commonwealth countries into its midst, notably Madagascar, Zimbabwe and "
12973"Indonesia, extending its control over the Oceanian waters. While it still "
12974"can't compete economically with the richer nations, it has carved out its "
12975"own niche, and is quite happy to go on prospering in it.\n"
12976"\n"
12977"Oceania's military consists mainly of a powerful navy. Its land army is "
12978"minuscule compared to that of any nation except United America, and serves "
12979"only in a defensive capacity, with average training and equipment. However, "
12980"it can respond fairly quickly in emergency situations."

12986"\"Project PHALANX\" was first conceived by the United States Department of "
12987"Defense in 1955, after years of growing concern over increased numbers of "
12988"UFO sightings all across the world. The possibility of an alien invasion "
12989"plagued badly on the minds of politicians already unnerved by the nuclear "
12990"power of the Soviet Union. The existence of hostile extraterrestrial life in "
12991"the universe seemed a very remote possibility, even moreso that these "
12992"hostiles might find Earth among all the vastness of space -- but could "
12993"America afford to take that chance?\n"
12994"\n"
12995"The project's proponents spent two years building support among the highest "
12996"levels of power. Finally, in 1957, PHALANX received its first funding "
12997"allocation. A significant chunk of the year's 'black budget' went to the "
12998"construction of an advanced underground complex in the Nevada desert "
12999"somewhere in the territory of Nellis Air Force Base. The complex was named "
13000"\"PHALANX Pacific Operations Command\", loaded with state-of-the-art "
13001"equipment, and staffed with the best and brightest to hammer out how best to "
13002"combat an extraterrestrial incursion into US soil.\n"
13003"\n"
13004"The project was a rousing success in its formative years, developing ground-"
13005"breaking technologies and producing working prototypes of things the world "
13006"had never seen before, all for a fraction of the costs that civilian "
13007"contractors would run up. Due to its very nature, PHALANX was the subject of "
13008"yearly budget battles, but its R&D successes always gave the project a "
13009"reason to continue even for the most hardline practicalists.\n"
13010"\n"
13011"However, the world moved on while PHALANX kept preparing for something that "
13012"never happened. The Vietnam war saw a tremendous upsurge in military "
13013"spending, almost none of which was allocated to PHALANX or similar projects, "
13014"who saw their own budgets slashed and burned in the face of war. Despite "
13015"repeated requests for more funding, the Joint Chiefs dismissed the "
13016"outlandish 1950s program as 'pie-in-the-sky' spending and let it continue "
13017"only because of its research efforts. Most of the remaining funding went to "
13018"keep old equipment serviced and the labs running, if only barely.\n"
13019"\n"
13020"PHALANX never quite recovered after the war. They would never again have the "
13021"budgets they had in the '50s; the glory years were over. They supplied some "
13022"new technology used in the Gulf War, and experienced brief uptick during the "
13023"opening years of the 21st century due to soaring US military budgets, but "
13024"after these brief spurts of creativity the project would again fade into "
13025"obscurity.\n"
13026"\n"
13027"The Second Cold War drained away the last life left in the project. Its "
13028"commanders struggled to keep it going without even the money to keep their "
13029"aircraft in the sky, but even the invention of artificial spider silk "
13030"couldn't save them from the United States' crashing economy. The country's "
13031"slide into ruin necked every 'non-essential' military program in the "
13032"country, one by one, and PHALANX was finally stricken from the budget in "
13033"2027. It was five months away from its 70th anniversary. The staff was "
13034"dismissed, the base dismantled, the unique equipment mothballed and thrown "
13035"into storage. The project was quickly forgotten.\n"
13036"\n"
13037"Until it was rediscovered on 9 March 2084 by an old man who remembered "
13038"reading about it in a dusty file in his long-demolished office.\n"
13039"\n"
13040"The horror and enormity of the events in Mumbai shocked the world. The "
13041"existence of intelligent alien life in the universe was no longer a matter "
13042"of faith. Not only did it exist, it had made contact in the worst way. The "
13043"massacres were too large and visible for Earth's governments to keep them "
13044"secret. Video evidence of the smoking, blood-stained streets aired on "
13045"television sets around the world. The aliens had left no other evidence of "
13046"their visit; they diligently recovered their dead and collected every scrap "
13047"of dropped technology before pulling out.\n"
13048"\n"
13049"Panic spread like wildfire in the wake of the Mumbai broadcasts, and things "
13050"got worse as word reached the general public about the slaughter in Bonn, "
13051"Johannesburg and Bangkok. The world knew it had been visited, and now it "
13052"began to realise it was under attack.\n"
13053"\n"
13054"The quest for solutions was frantic. The United Nations remained in session "
13055"continuously for over a week. Plans were drawn up and burnt down with "
13056"lightning speed. The world was completely defenceless against an alien "
13057"invasion, both militarily and psychologically. No one had prepared for this. "
13058"It was one of the forgotten doomsday scenarios that sat crumbling to dust in "
13059"the back closet of some strategic planning office, unread and unheeded. Now, "
13060"however, the public demanded answers that no one knew, action that no one "
13061"could provide.\n"
13062"\n"
13063"The UN could agree only on a few token gestures; at the order of the "
13064"Security Council, NASA evacuated International Space Stations 1 and 2, as "
13065"well as the permanent colony on the moon. The entire range of planned "
13066"missions to Mars was stricken from the calendar. On all the matters that "
13067"counted, the UN was deadlocked. Some nations wanted to build massive orbital "
13068"defences while others insisted they should be permitted to use nuclear "
13069"missiles for UFO interception. Still others had even more outlandish "
13070"projects to push. The situation grew worse as the days wore on, until one "
13071"aging diplomat remembered the PHALANX project.\n"
13072"\n"
13073"With full access to the old US files, the UN was shocked to find plans, "
13074"designs, equipment and training manuals; a fully-detailed response to an "
13075"invasion scenario. They immediately decided to revive PHALANX and equip it "
13076"to defend Earth from the alien threat. However, everyone who was once a part "
13077"of PHALANX was either dead or dying. They were going to need a new staff.\n"
13078"\n"
13079"By unanimous vote, it was decided to keep the project as secret as possible, "
13080"known only to the highest-ranking politicians and military commanders in the "
13081"world. The public was comforted with smokescreens and sweet lies while a "
13082"hand-picked team of operatives from all over the world struggled to "
13083"resurrect PHALANX and whip it back into fighting trim. Old equipment was "
13084"tracked down and recovered from gutted warehouses, crumbling manuals were "
13085"dusted off, and stockpiles of weapons were reassembled for use. With the "
13086"secret backing of all eight great powers, the project had funding, support "
13087"and the men it needed to go to war.\n"
13088"\n"
13089"All it lacked was a leader."

13095"Commander,\n"
13096"\n"
13097"New information has come to light that you need to see. We've discovered a "
13098"commonality that may give us some new insight into the aliens' diversity.\n"
13099"\n"
13100"During our first analyses of the aliens' cellular structure, we encountered "
13101"some anomalies where our DNA replication tests would fail due to unexplained "
13102"sample contamination. We initially discarded this as human error, but the "
13103"problem has continued to appear with surprising regularity. The same result, "
13104"again and again; every time we run a sample that hasn't been cryofrozen for "
13105"storage, we have difficulty extracting a single uncontaminated sequence. I "
13106"spent some of my off hours studying the problem, and I believe I've found "
13107"the cause.\n"
13108"\n"
13109"The simplest explanation is this: There are two types of DNA present in our "
13110"blood samples. The foreign DNA's prevalence is total; these sequences can be "
13111"found in every member of the Taman species, and closer study has confirmed "
13112"that similar sequences exist in the blood of other species we've recovered. "
13113"The source seems to be a kind of single-cellular organism present in huge "
13114"numbers in the alien bloodstream. There are several versions of it, one for "
13115"each species of alien, and they all share remarkable DNA similarities. "
13116"Interestingly, although these organisms all have an identical number of "
13117"chromosomes, none of them can survive in a body that is not a member of its "
13118"source species. Also curious is the fact that there are absolutely no "
13119"variations in DNA between organisms of the same version. This leads us to "
13120"believe that the different versions may have been engineered -- wholly or in "
13121"part -- to suit the individual species.\n"
13122"\n"
13123"We now surmise that all aliens carry a version of this micro-organic "
13124"infection. The organism's function is not readily apparent. We've run tests "
13125"on various experimental tissue samples, both infected and control specimens. "
13126"The infected tissues do not appear to suffer any negative effects -- or "
13127"positive ones, for that matter -- from the organism's presence. They are "
13128"essentially indistinguishable from uninfected tissues. Since the organism "
13129"requires a living host for its own survival, it seems to be either a "
13130"parasite or a symbiote with currently unobserved benefits.\n"
13131"\n"
13132"We have dubbed this organism the 'EXtraterrestrial Viral Infection', or XVI. "
13133"This may be somewhat of a misnomer in microbiological terms; XVI is a "
13134"complex multi-celled organism far larger than any terrestrial virus, but it "
13135"acts and replicates exactly like one. Therefore we feel the term is "
13136"warranted. As each alien species carries a unique strand of the infection, "
13137"we have given them alphabetical designations after the source species in "
13138"which the strand can be found. Tamans have XVI-T, Shevaar have XVI-S, and so "
13139"forth.\n"
13140"\n"
13141"The infection's purpose remains nebulous at this point, but it is the only "
13142"thing we've found so far that binds these diverse races together physically. "
13143"We can only assume that new strands of the infection were engineered to suit "
13144"each species, perhaps something that allows them to coexist the way they "
13145"do.\n"
13146"\n"
13147"There is no indication that this organism is contagious to humans. When "
13148"injecting cultures of human tissue with fresh alien blood, we have observed "
13149"the alien blood being completely rejected, as expected. Unexpectedly, "
13150"however, any trace of the infection was subsequently annihilated by standard "
13151"human T cells. The organism was unable to take root in the face of our "
13152"immune system.\n"
13153"\n"
13154"We currently do not believe the XVI organism poses a threat to our soldiers "
13155"on the battlefield. However, we will continue research and keep you updated "
13156"about any developments. A thorough blood screening of all our personnel is "
13157"in progress, just in case, and strict quarantine procedures will be "
13158"maintained throughout the lab.\n"

13236"the millions, it's easy to forget just how little that really is.\n"
13237"\n"
13238"In fact, the biggest obstacle to our adaptation of the alien fuel is the "

13240"every particle physics laboratory in the world churning out as many "

13242"gramme's worth of antiprotons. By comparison, the amount contained in a "
13243"UFO's tank exceeds that of all the antimatter produced on Earth over the "
13244"past hundred years.\n"
13245"\n"
13246"Humanity is a long, long way off from being able to create antiprotons in "

13249"create their antimatter or how they manage to generate enough electricity to "
13250"do so. Unless and until we can get our hands on this equipment, our efforts "
13251"will be fruitless.\n"
13252"\n"
13253"Our only major successes have come from studying how the aliens store their "
13254"antimatter. We're confident we can employ the same magnetic storage "
13255"techniques, creating special facilities for safely storing antimatter. I've "
13256"sent you a set of blueprints in a separate message to peruse at your "

13291"UFO's tank exceeds that of all the antimatter produced on Earth over the "
13292"past hundred years.\n"
13293"\n"
13294"Humanity is a long, long way off from being able to create antiprotons in "
13295"the amounts necessary to fuel these matter-antimatter rockets. The bottom "
13296"line is, we cannot duplicate this alien technology. We don't know how they "
13297"create their antimatter or how they manage to generate enough electricity to "
13298"do so. Unless and until we can get our hands on this equipment, our efforts "
13299"will be fruitless.\n"
13300"\n"
13301"Our only major successes have come from studying how the aliens store their "
13302"antimatter. We're confident we can employ the same magnetic storage "
13303"techniques, creating special facilities for safely storing up to ten grammes "
13304"of antimatter. I've sent you a set of blueprints in a separate message to "
13305"peruse at your convenience. We've also designed antimatter fuel tanks that "
13306"should fit in our interceptors given some major overhaul. Of course we'll "
13307"need a full understanding of the alien engines before we can begin "
13308"incorporating it.\n"
13309"\n"
13310"For all intents and purposes, we are unable to replicate the alien fuel. If "
13311"we use antimatter in our own technology we will be dependent upon recovering "
13312"it from alien sources. This seems a dangerous course of action, but we may "
13313"have no choice; we need to adapt this technology as soon as possible if we "
13314"are to have any chance of truly stopping the invasion.\n"

13475"Every organic specimen we've autopsied has carried one of these devices, all "

13706"we can make them respond, one way or another. Dr. Yamamura is currently "
13707"working on teaching an isolated group how to express desire, acknowledgement "
13708"and denial. Their intelligence is too limited to attempt anything more "

14109"The increasing intellect of the captive aliens in our Containment unit leads "
14110"me to conclude that we can finally begin to get a real handle on alien "
14111"communication and, more importantly, getting some useable information out of "
14112"them. Quoting from my report:\n"
14113"\n"
14114"(Odd Behaviour)\"There are several species of alien, all of which meet the "
14115"physiological requirements for a sentient species, but they show little to "
14116"no brainwave activity of their own. This implies the presence of some kind "
14117"of shared or distributed thought between them, a hive mind that grows more "
14118"intelligent as it grows in numbers.\"\n"
14119"\n"
14120"\"With several specimens on hand, their intelligence now seems to be "
14121"approaching the human level. If we can create a suitable translation device "
14122"or common language, we believe we may finally be able to establish "
14123"communications with aliens in PHALANX captivity. Perhaps some of our "
14124"linguists or psychology experts could form a dialogue. This is an avenue of "
14125"inquiry that we cannot afford to ignore.\"\n"
14126"\n"
14127"Dr. Yamamura is beginning to make real progress on this front, teaching the "
14128"aliens several new words of sign language every day, but we require lab time "
14129"and funding for a proper study of what these aliens know and how it can help "
14130"us. The ability to interrogate aliens about their own technology could be of "
14131"incomparable value to our soldiers and engineers. Cdr. Navarre was so "
14132"excited at the prospect, he almost argued in favour of DivBio on this one.\n"
14133"\n"

14158"spot. I harbour grave suspicions that this facility is directly connected "
14159"with the lightning spread of XVI in the region. At this point it also seems "
14160"likely there are more of these planetside installations, built right under "
14161"our noses, serving as command centres and bases of operation for the alien "

14164"Dealing with these bases has to be one of our top priorities. I recommend we "

14166"force. We need more information about the layout and purpose of the base, "
14167"and the best way to do that is to capture it. We should eliminate all aliens "
14168"at the location and, once we've secured the area and salvaged what we need, "

14383"The project overall has been a resounding success in integration and "

14387"we have been sworn to silence by the UN. Our deep-space probes have scanned "
14388"every inch of buildable surface to detect any sign of an alien base. With "
14389"these resources at our disposal, we have achieved continuous detection "
14390"coverage of approximately 90% of the solar system over the past two weeks. "
14391"The remaining 10% has been uncovered no longer than forty minutes at a "
14392"time.\n"
14393"\n"
14394"Unfortunately -- depending on your understanding of the word 'unfortunately' "
14395"-- we could find no evidence of alien fleets hiding in our solar system. We "
14396"have been so thorough that these results are all but conclusive. There is no "
14397"way to be absolutely sure that our conclusions are correct, but I make the "
14398"following statement with high confidence:\n"
14399"\n"
14400"We do not believe there are alien ships or bases in our solar system at this "
14401"time.\n"
14402"\n"
14403"This answers one of our questions, but brings us no closer to understanding "
14404"where the aliens come from or how they get here. In fact, the question of "
14405"how they get here becomes an even greater conundrum than it was before. If "
14406"the aliens are not based in our solar system, how can they be delivering "

14410"issue, trying to figure it out, and most of our theories still seem like "
14411"crackpot speculations even to ourselves. However, fate gave us the proof we "
14412"needed.\n"
14413"\n"
14414"We were having little luck with the issues of 'how' and 'where' until we got "
14415"our hands on last week's video records from the MIMIR space telescope. Upon "
14416"watching the footage, we realised that the MIMIR array had accidentally "
14417"managed to catch a UFO arrival on film. We have full records in the visible "
14418"and infrared spectra of a large, unfamiliar class of UFO 'popping' into "
14419"existence approximately 10,000 kilometres from Earth, from where it ignited "
14420"its engines and set a course for the planet.\n"
14421"\n"
14422"It is possible the aliens could have some manner of 'cloaking' technology "
14423"that has prevented us from detecting the UFO beyond that range, but we have "
14424"strong doubts about this; the appearance was highly sudden, accompanied by a "
14425"burst of gamma rays and a momentary gravitic anomaly. There was not even the "
14426"slightest evidence of this UFO's existence prior to its appearance 10,000 "
14427"klicks from Earth.\n"
14428"\n"
14429"The most likely conclusion is also the most frightening: the aliens do not "
14430"need to be located in our solar system, because they have a means of travel "
14431"that is faster than light. Apparently this FTL (Faster-Than-Light) drive "
14432"allows them to 'jump' into the Sol system from a distance well beyond our "
14433"detection range. We don't know how this could be possible, as it clearly "
14434"violates one or more concepts of general relativity (e.g. causality and/or "
14435"special relativity), which remains the most accurate model of physics we "
14436"have. The aliens clearly know something we don't.\n"

14598"Commander, my team and I have finished our analysis of the UFO we captured. "
14599"It's a real miracle of engineering, and we're all looking forward to getting "
14600"a chance to sink our own hooks into all this lovely technology.\n"
14601"\n"
14602"The craft's strange construction has raised a lot of questions for us to "
14603"answer. Much of the design seems to make little sense when viewed from the "
14604"ground. However, now that we've managed to look at it up close and personal "
14605"-- and test the alien hull materials under laboratory conditions -- we have "
14606"gained a far clearer picture of UFO capabilities. I've made a list of our "
14607"most important discoveries.\n"
14608"\n"
14609"-- The alien propulsion system is a type of rocket engine unlike any ever "
14610"built on Earth. It uses direct matter-antimatter annihilation to generate "
14611"thrust by injecting protons and antiprotons into the reaction chamber, then "
14612"channeling this explosive force out the back of the engine. This gives a UFO "
14613"extreme power and needs no air or other gases to fuel the reaction, allowing "
14614"it to burn in hard vacuum. There is a highly-advanced cooling system "
14615"continuously pumping liquid nitrogen through the engine housing in order to "
14616"keep it cool and to reduce the infrared signature. Engine heat is also used "
14617"to supply the craft's electrical needs.\n"
14618"\n"
14619"-- The fuel tank is very, very small, measured in fractions of a gramme, but "
14620"even so I nearly had a heart attack when we found out what was in there. If "
14621"a containment loss occurred on one of these tanks, even three tenths of a "
14622"gramme of this antimatter would outstrip the explosive force of the "
14623"Hiroshima atomic bomb. Naturally the tank is armoured and buried as deep as "
14624"possible within the fuselage, and there are mechanical systems present to "
14625"jettison the tank in an emergency, but they aren't perfect. A direct hit on "
14626"the tank or the containment system could still cause an explosion. Much of "
14627"the blast would be contained by the UFO's tough structure, but any explosion "
14628"represents an extreme hazard to our interceptors. The only saving grace is "
14629"that proton-antiproton explosions create little radioactive fallout.\n"
14630"\n"
14631"-- The craft is extremely difficult to see with human detection equipment, "
14632"regardless of any electronic warfare capability on the aliens' part. This is "
14633"largely due to the hull materials which very effectively absorb all kinds of "
14634"radiation. We've had the most luck with passive infrared and gamma radiation "
14635"detection, as the antimatter-based engines produce quite a lot of both.\n"
14636"\n"
14637"-- The slim design, generating poor lift and being difficult to handle in "
14638"air, is partly due to the heavy weight of the hull materials. It would be "
14639"impossible to create effective wings from the alien hull materials. Instead, "
14640"every gramme of excess matter has been stripped off, and the craft moves at "
14641"high speeds so as to need very little lift surface. The material itself is "
14642"quite astonishing, part metal and part plastic polymer. It functions as a "
14643"memory alloy, 'remembering' at least two assigned shapes, shrinking into a "
14644"more compact form when cold but automatically stretching out and assuming a "
14645"more comfortable flying shape once it heats up. It's stronger and tougher "
14646"than any known material on Earth (barring pure carbon nanotubes) and far "
14647"more versatile in aircraft design. More research is definitely required.\n"
14648"\n"
14649"Armed with these facts, we can now begin to analyse the different components "
14650"and roles of the UFO. I recommend that our engineers begin dismantling this "
14651"craft for parts right away. Who knows what we'll discover with the "
14652"individual bits and pieces in front of us?\n"

15207"Good morning, Sir.\n"
15208"\n"
15209"I've got an extensive report for you regarding our work on deciphering the "
15210"patterns of alien activity and their overall strategy for Earth. You can "
15211"find the full document in our archives, but I will give you a quick "
15212"summation here.\n"
15213"\n"
15214"The most striking characteristic we've seen of the invasion is that the "
15215"aliens have been harvesting human biomass, sometimes even whole people, for "
15216"their own nebulous purposes. They do this in a rather gruesome manner that "
15217"shows no respect for life; they cut up human beings as if butchering cattle, "
15218"and their Bloodspiders will simply dissect someone on the spot for a "
15219"particularly interesting organ or a pint of blood. It is utterly, amorally "
15220"practical.\n"
15221"\n"
15222"We can only assume that they use the samples they're gathering in some kind "
15223"of research program, studies into our physiology and perhaps our psychology "
15224"and culture as well. We don't know the reasons behind this, but it's an "
15225"interesting point. They are trying to learn something about us, and they "
15226"don't care how we feel about it. To them, we're merely objects to be "
15227"studied.\n"
15228"\n"
15229"Of further interest are their main targets. Until recently alien activity "
15230"reports came almost exclusively from high-density population centres with "
15231"easy landing access for UFOs, which ties in with the general objective of "
15232"capturing human research material. However, as of late the focus of the "
15233"campaign seems to have shifted or narrowed. Activity around hospitals, blood "
15234"banks and bio-research laboratories has been noticed more and more "
15235"frequently in addition to the usual raids on population centres. The "
15236"activity has ranged from low-key infiltration for unknown purposes up to "
15237"full-scale assaults on high-security labs. We're not sure yet what this "
15238"shift could mean, but we are making recommendations to the UN to sharpen "
15239"security in these facilities and arm local forces to stand up to alien "
15240"attack. We've marked up a list of high-risk targets for rapid police "
15241"response and are distributing handbooks on anti-alien tactics. More "
15242"investigation into the change of targets is underway.\n"
15243"\n"
15244"As always, there is a lot more alien activity going on outside of our "
15245"detection range which goes unreported by civilian authorities. DivIntel is "
15246"currently experimenting with new ways of reporting and responding to alien "
15247"activity as well as better networking between UN nations to get valid "
15248"information to PHALANX faster, all of which are direct results of our "
15249"research into the aliens' strategy. We expect that these techniques will "
15250"allow us to catch an estimated 10% of alien activity (out of total estimated "
15251"activity on Earth) that would have previously gone unreported.\n"
15252"\n"
15253"We've also looked into how UFOs are getting to and from Earth, despite our "
15254"problems finding and tracking the elusive larger craft we've observed. After "
15255"reviewing radar, lidar and video recordings made from observatories on the "
15256"planet surface, we now believe the larger UFOs to be some manner of aircraft "
15257"carrier; a simple FTL-equipped base ship ferrying smaller UFOs to and from "
15258"Earth.\n"
15259"\n"
15260"This craft is of extreme importance and we must find some way to shoot it "
15261"down from orbit if we can. We should keep a close guard, Commander.\n"

15316"Good morning, Sir.\n"
15317"\n"
15318"I'm afraid this isn't a social message; I'm writing you because of our "
15319"pressing need for more information. We at DivIntel have been doing our part "
15320"with tracking, logging and double-checking all reported alien activity on "
15321"Earth, but we're increasingly being faced with our lack of data about the "
15322"overarching goals of the alien invasion. We have no means of anticipating "
15323"the aliens' next move because we have no clue as to what game plan they're "
15324"following. That's why I am submitting a new project for your authorisation.\n"
15325"\n"
15326"I intend to analyse more closely the patterns of alien activity on Earth, "
15327"the intended missions and targets of UFO incursions into our airspace, and "
15328"some of the finer details of our own research documents regarding the alien "
15329"creatures and their technology. The bits and pieces of intelligence we've "
15330"gathered so far are just pieces of a puzzle, but right now we have no clue "
15331"how they fit together. The continual low-key incursions, the mysteries of "
15332"the alien hive mind, the harvesting of human material . . . Somewhere in "
15333"there lie the answers we need to unravel the aliens' overall goals and "
15334"strategy for Earth and for humanity. If we can just put all the pieces "
15335"together, we'll finally be able to see the bigger picture, as frightening as "
15336"it may be.\n"

15338"Naturally this project will require a certain amount of lab time and funding "

15375"Good morning, Sir.\n"
15376"\n"
15377"Let me begin by stating a few ugly realities.\n"
15378"\n"
15379"1) All of humanity's space-based assets have been evacuated after the "
15380"initial attack on Earth. Only a few stations and outposts are still running, "
15381"and they have been remanded to military control, with only skeleton crews of "
15382"volunteer military and civilian personnel.\n"
15383"\n"
15384"2) We have just a handful of space-based weapons platforms, none of which "
15385"are equipped to harm alien craft. The aliens have the ability to instantly "
15386"exterminate any human endeavours in the solar system.\n"
15387"\n"
15388"3) Our satellite grid is wide open and could be wiped off the map in an "
15389"instant. Emergency landlines exist, but only for military use. If the grid "
15390"does come under attack, comms between PHALANX Command Centres and assets in "
15391"the field -- aircraft and ground teams -- will be hamstrung.\n"
15392"\n"
15393"4) There is no doubt that there are alien craft moving in orbit, ferrying "
15394"items and UFOs between Earth and the alien homeworld, and right now there is "
15395"nothing we can do to stop them.\n"
15396"\n"
15397"This leads us to only one conclusion: The space around Earth is no longer "
15398"under our control. The only reason humanity retains any space capability at "
15399"all is because the aliens have chosen not to destroy it yet.\n"
15400"\n"
15401"Our shocking vulnerability from space is demonstrated in the fact that we've "
15402"fought this war exclusively on the ground and in the air. We have no space-"
15403"planes that can be adapted for combat, and designs for building them are "
15404"years from completion. Not even PHALANX could create a workable combat plane "
15405"in time to affect the outcome of the war with the technologies currently at "
15406"our disposal.\n"
15407"\n"
15408"What little orbital weaponry we have is severely inadequate. There are "
15409"nuclear missiles which the UN won't let us use, and which would be far too "
15410"destructive to help our research efforts if one of the colossal things ever "
15411"managed to score a hit. If the aliens decide they want to bomb us into "
15412"extinction, they can just walk right up and knock. This is a situation that "
15413"has to be remedied.\n"
15414"\n"
15415"The only question we can ask about this orbital UFO activity is how we're "
15416"going to counter it. Until now we've not been able to affect the situation, "
15417"but with budget increases and our growing reputation in the UN, pieces are "
15418"starting to fall into place for a new step to our strategy.\n"
15419"\n"
15420"By far the most promising idea for a short-term orbital response weapon is "
15421"to adapt one of the 'space guns' used by NASA and the European Space Agency "
15422"to launch satellites and -- before the invasion forced us to evacuate our "
15423"extraplanetary installations -- fire resupply packages at Tranquility Base "
15424"colony on the moon. These space guns are essentially giant railguns with "
15425"enough power to send a satellite-sized payload into orbit. With our library "
15426"of UN research on electromagnetic weaponry, we can upgrade one of these guns "
15427"into an anti-orbital weapon capable of knocking alien ships out of the sky. "
15428"We're confident we can convince at least one of Earth's space agencies to "
15429"lend us a suitable gun for the job.\n"
15430"\n"
15431"There are problems, however. Obviously these guns can't move, being built "
15432"into the side of a mountain, so the target would have to pass directly in "
15433"front of the gun for us to have a chance to hit it. Since we can't count on "
15434"the aliens to give us a point-blank shot, this has been a big stumbling "
15435"block, but we believe there may be a solution: If the gun can't move in "
15436"order to hit something, the bullets will have to move instead.\n"
15437"\n"
15438"The plan calls for development of a special shell that is able to adjust its "
15439"own trajectory with a suite of onboard rockets. We're currently pushing the "
15440"UN to let us use a miniature nuclear warhead -- no more than 3 kilotons -- "
15441"to make sure that any hit will kill. This orbital shell will be large, "
15442"heavy, and a hell of a challenge to load into the gun, but it's absolutely "
15443"necessary to give the project a realistic chance of success.\n"
15444"\n"
15445"As you see, Sir, these problems can all be overcome, but we need to do some "

15548"To be honest we're stumped. We don't yet have a reliable theory about what "

15611"\n"
15612"The alien attack on Mumbai made our situation painfully clear. Their "
15613"technology is far more advanced than ours. The complete inability of "
15614"Commonwealth troops to make a dent in the Mumbai offensive revealed critical "
15615"weaknesses in current military training and equipment. They lost three "
15616"battalions just bringing the aliens to a standstill without inflicting "
15617"significant casualties. PHALANX has to overcome these odds, and to do that "
15618"we need the very best human technology has to offer.\n"
15619"\n"
15620"The Excalibur Program was created to find the most effective weapons on "
15621"Earth by reviewing their manufacturing standards, durability, operational "
15622"record, and their combat performance in the situations where we've managed "
15623"to bring the aliens to battle.\n"
15624"\n"
15625"The British SA-3000 GPG (General-Purpose Gun), colloquially known as the "
15626"Great British Gun, is a versatile drum-fed machine gun that has seen service "
15627"throughout the world in its 16-year operational life. First deployed in "
15628"2068, it quickly found its niche as a light machine gun for infantry and "
15629"ground-support helicopters, able to be fired from the hip as easily as from "
15630"a bipod or pintle mount.\n"
15631"\n"
15632"The infantry version of the GPG is a highly versatile and reliable gun. "
15633"Unlike most machine guns the GPG takes caseless ammunition from a large drum "
15634"magazine instead of a belt. This limits fire rate and magazine endurance, "
15635"but it's also the reason for the weapon's versatility. The reloading process "
15636"for the GPG is almost as quick and easy as an assault rifle, and the drums "
15637"contain 100 rounds each. This allows the GPG to be used almost as a heavy "
15638"assault rifle. The magazines are on the bulky side, but still small and "
15639"light enough for an average soldier to carry several of them into battle.\n"
15640"\n"
15641"The gun contains surprisingly few computerised components, only a powerful "
15642"recoil compensator and shock absorbing system. This helps to improve "
15643"accuracy above that of older machine guns, although it's never going to be a "
15644"sniper rifle. The solid design and sheer simplicity of its internals combine "
15645"to make the GPG a very reliable weapon. It has seen action in Mumbai and "
15646"performed admirably there, providing effective and highly mobile suppressive "
15647"fire, sometimes capable of pinning down whole alien squads depending on the "
15648"terrain.\n"
15649"\n"
15650"The GPG fires the popular 4.7mm caseless round, also used in our AR-80 "
15651"Assault Rifle. Unfortunately the magazines are not interchangeable between "
15652"Assault Rifle and GPG, as the Assault Rifle uses a different feed system.\n"
15653"\n"
15654"We feel that the GPG is the best candidate for our arsenal in the machine "
15655"gun category. Our troops can depend on this gun to deliver heaps of fire "
15656"when and where they need it most.\n"
15657"\n"
15658"For PHALANX use, we have given this machine gun the classification MG12.\n"
15659"\n"
15660"\n"
15661"Recommended Doctrine\n"
15662"\n"
15663"The MG12 will be an extremely valuable tool in controlling the battlefield. "

15665"positions, it can provide effective suppressive or diversionary fire from "
15666"all ranges, or it can be used simply as a powerful medium-range assault "
15667"weapon.\n"

15707"The British SA-3000 GPG (General-Purpose Gun), colloquially known as the "
15708"Great British Gun, is a versatile drum-fed machine gun that has seen service "
15709"throughout the world in its 16-year operational life. First deployed in "
15710"2068, it quickly found its niche as a light machine gun for infantry and "
15711"ground-support helicopters, able to be fired from the hip as easily as from "
15712"a bipod or pintle mount.\n"
15713"\n"
15714"The infantry version of the GPG is a highly versatile and reliable gun. "
15715"Unlike most machine guns the GPG takes caseless ammunition from a large drum "
15716"magazine instead of a belt. This limits fire rate and magazine endurance, "
15717"but it's also the reason for the weapon's versatility. The reloading process "
15718"for the GPG is almost as quick and easy as an assault rifle, and the drums "
15719"contain 100 rounds each. This allows the GPG to be used almost as a heavy "
15720"assault rifle. The magazines are on the bulky side, but still small and "
15721"light enough for an average soldier to carry several of them into battle.\n"
15722"\n"
15723"The gun contains surprisingly few computerised components, only a powerful "
15724"recoil compensator and shock absorbing system. This helps to improve "
15725"accuracy above that of older machine guns, although it's never going to be a "
15726"sniper rifle. The solid design and sheer simplicity of its internals combine "
15727"to make the GPG a very reliable weapon. It has seen action in Mumbai and "
15728"performed admirably there, providing effective and highly mobile suppressive "
15729"fire, sometimes capable of pinning down whole alien squads depending on the "
15730"terrain.\n"
15731"\n"
15732"The GPG fires the popular 4.7mm caseless round, also used in our AR-80 "
15733"Assault Rifle. Unfortunately the magazines are not interchangeable between "
15734"Assault Rifle and GPG, as the Assault Rifle uses a different feed system.\n"
15735"\n"
15736"We feel that the GPG is the best candidate for our arsenal in the machine "
15737"gun category. Our troops can depend on this gun to deliver heaps of fire "
15738"when and where they need it most.\n"
15739"\n"
15740"For PHALANX use, we have given this machine gun the classification MG12.\n"
15741"\n"
15742"\n"
15743"Recommended Doctrine\n"
15744"\n"
15745"The MG12 will be an extremely valuable tool in controlling the battlefield. "
15746"It can set up mobile strongpoints from which to stage attacks on alien "
15747"positions, it can provide effective suppressive or diversionary fire from "
15748"all ranges, or it can be used simply as a powerful medium-range assault "
15749"weapon.\n"
15750"\n"

15844"before expelling the remaining harmless vapour back into the atmosphere.\n"
15845"\n"
15846"The filter needs to be replaced regularly, but we've designed the system to "

15985"The alien attack on Mumbai made our situation painfully clear. Their "
15986"technology is far more advanced than ours. The complete inability of "
15987"Commonwealth troops to make a dent in the Mumbai offensive revealed critical "
15988"weaknesses in current military training and equipment. They lost three "
15989"battalions just bringing the aliens to a standstill without inflicting "
15990"significant casualties. PHALANX has to overcome these odds, and to do that "
15991"we need the very best human technology has to offer.\n"
15992"\n"
15993"The Excalibur Program was created to find the most effective weapons on "
15994"Earth by reviewing their manufacturing standards, durability, operational "
15995"record, and their combat performance in the situations where we've managed "
15996"to bring the aliens to battle.\n"
15997"\n"
15998"With the return of armour to the battlefield, starting with steel helmets in "
15999"World War 1 and fragmentation vests in Vietnam, pistols have had a harder "
16000"and harder time keeping up. Due to their far lower muzzle velocity compared "
16001"to longer-barreled and/or fully automatic weapons, they've had increasing "
16002"trouble penetrating the new, ever-higher standards of human armour -- much "
16003"less advanced alien composites. The very concept of the pistol in military "
16004"use came under fire at one point in the 21st century, and was saved only by "
16005"the advent of super-high-velocity powder.\n"
16006"\n"
16007"Chief among the new generation of super-pistols is the Dolvich DV762 from "
16008"Russia. It follows the design philosophy of its home country; rugged, "
16009"reliable power without frills. Its design is extremely basic, and though the "
16010"materials used in its construction are far stronger to cope with the new "
16011"powder, the DV762's internals are no more advanced than any pistol of the "
16012"late 20th century.\n"
16013"\n"
16014"The DV762 does not compromise. It isn't a multi-function firearm. It's "
16015"designed for only one thing: to punch through armour and kill the person "
16016"inside. In order to do this, the DV fires the ancient 7.62mm Tokarev pistol "
16017"round, either on semi-automatic or three-round burst mode, from a 12-round "
16018"detachable box magazine. The Tokarev round is known for its excellent "
16019"penetration, and it has been significantly upgraded on its return to "
16020"military service. This pistol can shoot clean through the side of a modern "
16021"ballistic helmet at ranges of up to 10 metres -- and then out the other "
16022"side.\n"
16023"\n"
16024"Unfortunately, in order to achieve penetration, the DV sacrifices stopping "
16025"power. The 7.62mm round makes a very clean hole in the enemy, which is the "
16026"problem; it's very reluctant to fragment or tumble, requiring a direct hit "
16027"on a vital organ or major artery to incapacitate or kill an enemy.\n"
16028"\n"
16029"For the purposes of the Excalibur program, we concluded that a guaranteed "
16030"minor hit is better than one that may simply bounce off an alien's armour, "
16031"especially as we have yet to gain a clear picture of how nasty alien armour "
16032"can get. We need sidearms that we know will be effective in the crunch, and "
16033"the DV762 is the best of them.\n"
16034"\n"
16035"For PHALANX use, we have given this pistol the classification P-12.\n"
16036"\n"
16037"\n"
16038"Recommended Doctrine\n"
16039"\n"
16040"The P-12 is primarily a backup weapon. It is a significant step up from the "
16041"combat knife as a weapon of last resort, and it lets a soldier respond to "
16042"new close-range threats if the primary weapon is rendered ineffective at "
16043"such ranges or has run out of ammo.\n"
16044"\n"
16045"Ambidextrous soldiers may even consider using two pistols at the same time, "
16046"though this will negatively impact accuracy and reduce the soldier's already "
16047"minimal effective range.\n"
16048"\n"
16049"A single P-12 should rarely be considered as a primary weapon, as it is "
16050"outclassed in this role by nearly every other weapon in our arsenal. Its "
16051"advantages are the advantages of a sidearm -- small size and weight. Still, "
16052"it may find a use as a primary weapon with field medics and technicians who "
16053"do not have room for larger weapons.\n"

16115"side.\n"
16116"\n"
16117"Unfortunately, in order to achieve penetration, the DV sacrifices stopping "
16118"power. The 7.62mm round makes a very clean hole in the enemy, which is the "
16119"problem; it's very reluctant to fragment or tumble, requiring a direct hit "
16120"on a vital organ or major artery to incapacitate or kill an enemy.\n"
16121"\n"
16122"For the purposes of the Excalibur program, we concluded that a guaranteed "
16123"minor hit is better than one that may simply bounce off an alien's armour, "
16124"especially as we have yet to gain a clear picture of how nasty alien armour "
16125"can get. We need sidearms that we know will be effective in the crunch, and "
16126"the DV762 is the best of them.\n"
16127"\n"
16128"For PHALANX use, we have given this pistol the classification P-12.\n"
16129"\n"
16130"\n"
16131"Recommended Doctrine\n"
16132"\n"
16133"The P-12 is primarily a backup weapon. It is a significant step up from the "
16134"combat knife as a weapon of last resort, and it lets a soldier respond to "
16135"new close-range threats if the primary weapon is rendered ineffective at "
16136"such ranges or has run out of ammo.\n"
16137"\n"
16138"Ambidextrous soldiers may even consider using two pistols at the same time, "
16139"though this will negatively impact accuracy and reduce the soldier's already "
16140"minimal effective range.\n"
16141"\n"
16142"A single P-12 should rarely be considered as a primary weapon, as it is "
16143"outclassed in this role by nearly every other weapon in our arsenal. Its "
16144"advantages are the advantages of a sidearm -- small size and weight. Still, "
16145"it may find a use as a primary weapon with field medics and technicians who "
16146"do not have room for larger weapons.\n"
16147"\n"
16148"\n"
16149"Addenda\n"
16150"\n"
16151"Despite good penetration against organics, this weapon performs very poorly "
16152"against robotic targets."

16261"Overview\n"
16262"\n"
16263"The alien attack on Mumbai made our situation painfully clear. Their "
16264"technology is far more advanced than ours. The complete inability of "
16265"Commonwealth troops to make a dent in the Mumbai offensive revealed critical "
16266"weaknesses in current military training and equipment. They lost three "
16267"battalions just bringing the aliens to a standstill without inflicting "
16268"significant casualties. PHALANX has to overcome these odds, and to do that "
16269"we need the very best human technology has to offer.\n"
16270"\n"
16271"The Excalibur Program was created to find the most effective weapons on "
16272"Earth by reviewing their manufacturing standards, durability, operational "
16273"record, and their combat performance in the situations where we've managed "
16274"to bring the aliens to battle.\n"
16275"\n"
16276"With the return of armour to the battlefield, starting with steel helmets in "
16277"World War 1 and fragmentation vests in Vietnam, pistols have had a harder "
16278"and harder time keeping up. Due to their far lower muzzle velocity compared "
16279"to longer-barreled and/or fully automatic weapons, they've had increasing "
16280"trouble penetrating the new, ever-higher standards of human armour -- much "
16281"less advanced alien composites. The very concept of the pistol in military "
16282"use came under fire at one point in the 21st century, and was saved only by "
16283"the advent of super-high-velocity powder.\n"
16284"\n"
16285"The major drawback of super-high-velocity powder is that it cannot be used "
16286"in fully-automatic weapons, since no firearms action on this Earth can "
16287"survive that much violence for long without breaking. The British APMP "
16288"pistol ignores these concerns by using more ordinary smokeless powder and a "
16289"longer, almost SMG-length barrel to achieve higher velocities and greater "
16290"kinetic power. It is a true machine pistol, fully automatic and capable of "
16291"firing 600 rounds per minute from its surprisingly slim-lined 30-round "
16292"detachable box magazine. It has three firing modes: semi-automatic, 3-round "
16293"burst, and full-automatic.\n"
16294"\n"
16295"The APMP fires the specially-developed 4.2x24mm round that goes through "
16296"kevlar like it wasn't there. Once inside a human body this tiny round "
16297"tumbles like a madman and creates huge wound cavities. It has a deal of "
16298"trouble penetrating modern body armour, but this is offset by the APMP's "
16299"ability to deliver repeated hits from its large magazine, all in a pistol-"
16300"sized package. Unfortunately, the APMP can be a little unwieldy due to its "
16301"size. Accuracy during burst and fully-automatic fire suffers as a result.\n"
16302"\n"
16303"Whenever we need an automatic weapon no larger than our own P-12, this is "
16304"the weapon that fills the gap.\n"
16305"\n"
16306"For PHALANX use, we have given this machine pistol the classification "
16307"MP-699.\n"

16536"to bring the aliens to battle.\n"
16537"\n"
16538"The French Leblanc FAA-191 (Fusil Assaut Automatique) provides the most "
16539"advantageous mix of range, penetration against alien armour, and magazine "
16540"size in the assault rifle class. It is a bullpup design, meaning the "
16541"magazine and action of the weapon are located behind the grip to reduce "
16542"overall weapon length. The 191 fires a 30-round box magazine of 4.7mm "
16543"caseless ammunition, tungsten-cored steel penetrators with impressive armour-"
16544"piercing capability over short and medium ranges. The round does not perform "
16545"well at long range, but then assault rifles aren't meant for long-range "
16546"firefights.\n"
16547"\n"
16548"Though the design is far from new, first prototyped in 2057, no other rifle "
16549"has fully surpassed the 191. It is accurate and quick to reload. Its rugged "
16550"construction makes it dependable in combat and unlikely to break or jam. It "
16551"is resistant to heat, cold, dust and humidity all at once. Ammunition and "

16603"\n"
16604"The alien attack on Mumbai made our situation painfully clear. Their "
16605"technology is far more advanced than ours. The complete inability of "
16606"Commonwealth troops to make a dent in the Mumbai offensive revealed critical "
16607"weaknesses in current military training and equipment. They lost three "
16608"battalions just bringing the aliens to a standstill without inflicting "
16609"significant casualties. PHALANX has to overcome these odds, and to do that "
16610"we need the very best human technology has to offer.\n"
16611"\n"
16612"The Excalibur Program was created to find the most effective weapons on "
16613"Earth by reviewing their manufacturing standards, durability, operational "
16614"record, and their combat performance in the situations where we've managed "
16615"to bring the aliens to battle.\n"
16616"\n"
16617"The French Leblanc FAA-191 (Fusil Assaut Automatique) provides the most "
16618"advantageous mix of range, penetration against alien armour, and magazine "
16619"size in the assault rifle class. It is a bullpup design, meaning the "
16620"magazine and action of the weapon are located behind the grip to reduce "
16621"overall weapon length. The 191 fires a 30-round box magazine of 4.7mm "
16622"caseless ammunition, tungsten-cored steel penetrators with impressive armour-"
16623"piercing capability over short and medium ranges. The round does not perform "
16624"well at long range, but then assault rifles aren't meant for long-range "
16625"firefights.\n"
16626"\n"
16627"Though the design is far from new, first prototyped in 2057, no other rifle "
16628"has fully surpassed the 191. It is accurate and quick to reload. Its rugged "
16629"construction makes it dependable in combat and unlikely to break or jam. It "
16630"is resistant to heat, cold, dust and humidity all at once. Ammunition and "
16631"replacement parts are widely available due to the design's maturity and "
16632"relative popularity among Earth's armed forces. This is a rifle you can "

16777"\n"
16778"The British SA-3000 GPG (General-Purpose Gun), colloquially known as the "
16779"Great British Gun, is a versatile drum-fed machine gun that has seen service "
16780"throughout the world in its 16-year operational life. First deployed in "
16781"2068, it quickly found its niche as a light machine gun for infantry and "
16782"ground-support helicopters, able to be fired from the hip as easily as from "
16783"a bipod or pintle mount.\n"
16784"\n"
16785"The infantry version of the GPG is a highly versatile and reliable gun. "
16786"Unlike most machine guns the GPG takes caseless ammunition from a large drum "
16787"magazine instead of a belt. This limits fire rate and magazine endurance, "
16788"but it's also the reason for the weapon's versatility. The reloading process "
16789"for the GPG is almost as quick and easy as an assault rifle, and the drums "
16790"contain 100 rounds each.\n"
16791"\n"
16792"The gun contains surprisingly few computerised components, only a powerful "
16793"recoil compensator and shock absorbing system. This helps to improve "
16794"accuracy above that of older machine guns, although it's never going to be a "
16795"sniper rifle. The solid design and sheer simplicity of its internals combine "
16796"to make the GPG a very reliable weapon. It has seen action in Mumbai and "
16797"performed admirably there, providing effective and highly mobile suppressive "
16798"fire, sometimes capable of pinning down whole alien squads depending on the "

17422"The alien attack on Mumbai made our situation painfully clear. Their "

17424"Commonwealth troops to make a dent in the Mumbai offensive revealed critical "
17425"weaknesses in current military training and equipment. They lost three "

17428"we need the very best human technology has to offer.\n"
17429"\n"
17430"The Excalibur Program was created to find the most effective weapons on "
17431"Earth by reviewing their manufacturing standards, durability, operational "
17432"record, and their combat performance in the situations where we've managed "
17433"to bring the aliens to battle.\n"
17434"\n"
17435"From our experiences in Mumbai and other stricken cities, we've concluded "
17436"that the aliens seem to concentrate their efforts on population centres, "
17437"especially dense urban areas. A majority of engagements have taken place at "
17438"knife-fighting range. For the purposes of the Excalibur Program, we've "
17439"chosen several high-performance weapons for our Close Range Combat package.\n"
17440"\n"
17441"Many great shotguns have come out of Italy over the past two centuries; the "
17442"latest is the Rossi AAA, a semi-automatic combat shotgun developed for use "
17443"by SWAT and anti-terrorist units. It features several ground-breaking "
17444"technologies, but its most impressive feature is without a doubt the "
17445"specially-developed 'Twist' barrel. The Twist is a new type of shotgun "
17446"barrel that, with a sharp twist of the front handguard, can protrude or "
17447"flatten the rifling inside the barrel. With this mechanism, the AAA can "
17448"change its barrel from smoothbore to rifled and back in a tenth of a second. "
17449"The barrel even adjusts its own diameter and choke to fit whatever type of "
17450"shell is in the chamber. These two innovations allow the AAA to fire any "
17451"kind of shotgun ammo at a moment's notice.\n"
17452"\n"
17453"The most commonly used military and SWAT ammunition is the 12mm centerfire "
17454"flechette shell. Each shell contains 8 tiny flechettes -- solid steel "
17455"needles with fins to stabilise their flight. This ammunition has superior "
17456"accuracy compared to buckshot and performs excellently against armour. The "
17457"flechettes are also prone to tumble after penetration, resulting in "
17458"impressive wounding capability for such a small projectile. Their drawbacks "
17459"are vulnerability to wind conditions and other deflecting factors. Other "
17460"types of ammo are available to deal with these situations, however -- and "
17461"the AAA can fire them all.\n"
17462"\n"
17463"In conclusion, the Rossi AAA is a highly versatile shotgun that is among the "
17464"most effective close-range weapons available. It has a longer range than the "
17465"CRC-FL Flamethrower and causes more damage than the CRC-8 SMG, providing a "
17466"good compromise between speed, range and stopping power.\n"
17467"\n"
17468"For PHALANX use, we have given this shotgun the classification CRC-212.\n"
17469"\n"
17470"\n"
17471"Recommended Doctrine\n"
17472"\n"
17473"The CRC-212 performs very well at close quarters but quickly loses power as "
17474"the range increases. Flechette shot tends to spread too far to be effective "
17475"at range (though less so than ordinary buckshot), while rifled slugs suffer "
17476"a pronounced projectile drop and are highly susceptible to wind conditions. "
17477"Though the shotgun can shoot out to medium range, don't expect it to be very "
17478"effective.\n"
17479"\n"
17480"Where this weapon will truly shine is in urban situations where the enemy "
17481"has little cover to hide behind and can be engaged at close range. However, "
17482"it can be too long to manoeuvre properly in tight spaces. The CRC-M9 Micro "
17483"Shotgun may be preferable in these situations.\n"

17494"The EM rifle project has been a resounding success! For the first time in "
17495"human history, we've created a viable man-portable electromagnetic weapon. "
17496"We have named our weapon the Bolter Rifle to avoid ambiguity with other "
17497"existing MAG (Magnetic Accelerator Gun) implementations. I'll do my best to "
17498"explain its operation in this short summary.\n"
17499"\n"
17500"The Bolter Rifle is equipped with a railgun configuration, as opposed to a "
17501"coilgun/Gauss gun configuration, due to the high inefficiency and generally "
17502"poor operation of coilguns. Railguns work by utilising electromagnetic force "
17503"to propel an electrically conductive projectile along two conducting rails. "
17504"The electric current flowing through the rails sets up a magnetic field "
17505"between them and through the projectile. The direction of the magnetic field "
17506"is perpendicular to the current flowing through the rails and the "
17507"projectile; this results in the rails and projectile pushing each other, "
17508"thereby accelerating the projectile along the rails.\n"
17509"\n"
17510"The world's first large-scale railgun, built in the 1970s, used 500 MJ of "
17511"stored energy from the largest homopolar generator ever built. The "
17512"electrical equipment needed to power these guns has become much more compact "
17513"in the past century or so, but it is still not small or light enough to "
17514"create man-portable weapons capable of replacing chemical-propellant "
17515"firearms. Another major failing of railguns is their extreme susceptibility "
17516"to rail erosion. The rails suffer heavy damage from every shot fired along "
17517"them, and when the contact points are badly damaged, the electric current "
17518"cannot properly pass from the rails through the projectile. This causes "
17519"successive shots to lose more and more of their power. Each round needs at "
17520"least a short length of undamaged rail in order to build up velocity.\n"
17521"\n"
17522"Fortunately, we've managed to find a way around this problem -- by loading "
17523"new rails into the gun after every series of shots.\n"
17524"\n"
17525"The concept of pre-loading all of a weapon's ammunition into the barrel has "
17526"been around for a long time. Until now it has only been applied to "
17527"conventional firearms, but we have come up with a new concept; a small, "
17528"individually-powered and insulated length of rail loaded with every round. "
17529"This gives each round a viable contact point and will allow the weapon to "
17530"sustain power through all its shots. When all rounds in the current barrel "
17531"have been depleted -- and therefore the rails thoroughly destroyed -- the "
17532"soldier can simply unlock the old barrel, let it drop to the ground, and "
17533"slot in a fresh spare. Then he can replace the battery pack for a new series "
17534"of shots.\n"
17535"\n"
17536"The projectiles are specially-developed 3.2x40mm finned flechettes, stamped "
17537"from large sheets of tungsten alloy. They are razor-sharp, with excellent "
17538"armour-piercing qualities, and they tumble like demons inside the target. "
17539"The holes that these flechettes cause are many times larger than their "
17540"actual size.\n"
17541"\n"
17542"This choice of loading system makes the Bolter slow and clumsy to reload, "
17543"with expensive, oversized magazines (a new barrel and battery pack for each "
17544"reload) and a small ammo capacity. On the other hand, the Bolter's stopping "
17545"power is far greater than any chemical firearm in our arsenal. It is one of "
17546"the heaviest and most cumbersome rifles one might legitimately call a rifle, "

17870"during heat-moulding in our furnace, and contracts again during cooling, "
17871"which ended up cracking all of our straight-edged blades. It demands a "

17879"The handle is made from semi-solid rubber, which automatically moulds itself "
17880"to the wielder's hand to maximise comfort and gripping power. Both the "
17881"triangular crossguard and pommel are unbreakable carbon-nanotube-reinforced "
17882"plastic, a material that even Kerrblades have trouble with.\n"

17886"knife, doesn't thrust as well, and doesn't have the power of the Kerrblade's "
17887"sword-length swing, it strikes an ideal middle ground between these two "

18015"\n"
18016"The alien attack on Mumbai made our situation painfully clear. Their "
18017"technology is far more advanced than ours. The complete inability of "
18018"Commonwealth troops to make a dent in the Mumbai offensive revealed critical "
18019"weaknesses in current military training and equipment. They lost three "
18020"battalions just bringing the aliens to a standstill without inflicting "
18021"significant casualties. PHALANX has to overcome these odds, and to do that "
18022"we need the very best human technology has to offer.\n"
18023"\n"
18024"The Excalibur Program was created to find the most effective weapons on "
18025"Earth by reviewing their manufacturing standards, durability, operational "
18026"record, and their combat performance in the situations where we've managed "
18027"to bring the aliens to battle.\n"
18028"\n"
18029"From our experiences in Mumbai and other stricken cities, we've concluded "
18030"that the aliens seem to concentrate their efforts on population centres, "
18031"especially dense urban areas. A majority of engagements have taken place at "
18032"knife-fighting range. For the purposes of the Excalibur Program, we've "
18033"chosen several high-performance weapons for our Close Range Combat package.\n"
18034"\n"
18035"The Iranian ADA 22 flamethrower (nicknamed 'The Torch of God' by Alliance "
18036"troops) is a marvel of modern engineering. Unlike the old flamethrowers of "
18037"the 20th century, it requires no heavy pressure tanks to be carried on a "
18038"soldier's back -- the ADA is one unit carried in the hands without any hoses "
18039"or tubes. It simply slots a relatively small 200mm gas canister into the "
18040"feed, fires its deadly ammunition, and then ejects the empty canister to "
18041"make room for a reload. The system is ingenious and surprisingly reliable.\n"
18042"\n"
18043"The muzzle of the weapon is a powerful pump that squirts gas into the air, "
18044"then sets off the gas-air mixture by way of four parallel spark igniters, "
18045"one main unit and three backups. These igniters each emit as many as ten "
18046"sparks per second in order to ignite the fuel before it disperses. The "
18047"backups are very important in preventing an explosion due to the special "
18048"fuel the ADA uses, a substance called Compound 90.\n"
18049"\n"
18050"Compound 90 is a new flamethrower fuel that, when injected into the air, "
18051"creates a slow thermobaric reaction -- a fuel-air ignition rather than a "
18052"fuel-air explosion -- that can roast living tissue in seconds. C90 inflicts "
18053"horrific damage on organic targets; the heat generated exceeds 1700 degrees "
18054"celsius, enough to melt titanium. However, due to its gaseous nature it "
18055"leaves no burning residue (like napalm) on the target or in the surrounding "
18056"area and disperses its heat much more quickly. This makes it significantly "
18057"safer for urban use than napalm-derivative substances.\n"
18058"\n"
18059"The ADA 22's main drawbacks are its short range and its complex internals, "
18060"which are difficult to repair. However, our experienced technicians should "
18061"have no problem doing maintenance on this model.\n"
18062"\n"
18063"For PHALANX use, we have given this flamethrower the classification CRC-FL.\n"
18064"\n"
18065"\n"
18066"Recommended Doctrine\n"
18067"\n"
18068"The CRC-FL is a close-range weapon; the operator needs to be fast in order "

18070"rather weighty weapon despite its relatively slim design. Strength as well "
18071"as speed is required to wield it effectively.\n"
18072"\n"

18273"\n"
18274"The alien attack on Mumbai made our situation painfully clear. Their "
18275"technology is far more advanced than ours. The complete inability of "
18276"Commonwealth troops to make a dent in the Mumbai offensive revealed critical "
18277"weaknesses in current military training and equipment. They lost three "
18278"battalions just bringing the aliens to a standstill without inflicting "
18279"significant casualties. PHALANX has to overcome these odds, and to do that "
18280"we need the very best human technology has to offer.\n"
18281"\n"
18282"The Excalibur Program was created to find the most effective weapons on "
18283"Earth by reviewing their manufacturing standards, durability, operational "
18284"record, and their combat performance in the situations where we've managed "
18285"to bring the aliens to battle.\n"
18286"\n"
18287"The flashbang is a non-lethal grenade that produces a blinding flash and a "
18288"deafening blast to temporarily confuse or disorient targets in the area of "
18289"effect. The grenade body does not explode or fragment upon detonation. In "
18290"fact, if the body remains undamaged, it can be easily refilled and used "
18291"again.\n"
18292"\n"
18293"Humans affected by a flashbang suffer temporary deafness and impaired "
18294"balance, as well as complete loss of eyesight for up to five seconds before "
18295"the effect fades and vision returns to normal. This makes the flashbang an "
18296"excellent weapon for distracting and temporarily disabling the enemy, "
18297"especially when assaulting heavily-defended positions. From combat reports, "
18298"we've concluded that flashbangs have much the same effect on aliens as they "
18299"do on humans; alien targets are effectively blind and deaf for a short time "
18300"after the flashbang is deployed, rendering them helpless. We can't say "
18301"exactly how long this period is, and it will undoubtedly vary from alien to "
18302"alien, but it's still long enough to make the difference in a firefight.\n"
18303"\n"
18304"Aside from being a useful tactical tool, the flashbang will allow our "
18305"soldiers to get in close and personal without being cut to shreds by the "
18306"alien weapons. It allows the commander to choose exactly which weapons are "
18307"applied in a given situation whilst avoiding the collateral damage potential "
18308"of a frag grenade. A very quick enemy can take precautions to negate "
18309"flashbang effects simply by closing his eyes and plugging his ears, but he "
18310"will have very little warning and in most cases will require special "
18311"training to respond in time. From what we can tell the aliens have had no "
18312"prior experience with this type of weapon and have no defensive doctrine "
18313"against it. Even a prepared enemy will still be distracted by a flashbang "
18314"and could be engaged by fast-action troops before being able to reclaim his "
18315"weapon and take aim.\n"
18316"\n"
18317"The flashbang's strengths far outweigh its weaknesses. It has served with "
18318"distinction in many wars before this one, and it will continue to do so "
18319"until all its functions can be replaced somehow by a new system.\n"
18320"\n"
18321"\n"
18322"Recommended Doctrine\n"
18323"\n"
18324"The flashbang does no physical damage to anyone caught in its area of "

18326"grenades and other explosive ordnance during any mission where civilians are "
18327"placed at risk.\n"
18328"\n"
18329"It is an indispensible weapon in any terrain that features large amounts of "

18456"to bring the aliens to battle.\n"
18457"\n"
18458"The concept of the fragmentation grenade has changed little since it was "
18459"first conceived, when Chinese soldiers packed gunpowder into ceramic or "
18460"metal containers. It only solidified further after the end of the 20th "
18461"century. Improvements in explosive technology and casing materials have made "
18462"them a little faster and a little deadlier, but the mechanics are the same: "
18463"An explosive substance at the heart of the grenade causes the casing (and "
18464"possibly additional payload such as a layer of wire or white phosphorus "
18465"coiled around the explosive) to fragment into shrapnel and fly in all "
18466"directions at high speed, killing or wounding targets in the area of effect. "
18467"The delayed fuse is ignited by first pulling the pin and then releasing the "
18468"handle, usually released as the grenade is thrown. It will detonate after a "
18469"period of several seconds.\n"
18470"\n"
18471"For PHALANX purposes, we have selected the Australian HG15 as the best of "
18472"the lot. This grenade is loaded with an extremely conventional charge of C8 "
18473"solid chemical explosive, an inner layer of coiled wire, and an outer layer "
18474"of thin plated steel. It's designed to maximise coverage by putting out more "
18475"shrapnel than any other grenade on the market. The HG15's outer layer is "
18476"smooth and unbroken, unlike the old 'pineapple' grenades of World War 2, to "
18477"make it easier to roll across various surfaces. The C8 explosive at its core "
18478"may be old in design, but it's both highly powerful and can be counted on to "
18479"work right under harsh conditions. Reliability is an especially important "

18481"\n"
18482"\n"
18483"Recommended Doctrine\n"
18484"\n"
18485"Though quite effective against enemy infantry, frag grenades are weapons of "

18487"range is highly limited and their casualty radius is small. However, if the "
18488"situation calls for close-range indirect fire or something deadly thrown "
18489"around a corner, the frag grenade is just the thing.\n"
18490"\n"
18491"Care should be taken that no friendlies (especially civilians) are caught in "

18625"The standard American M71 grenade consists of a core of C8 explosive, an "

18699"The standard American M71 grenade consists of a core of C8 explosive, an "
18700"inner layer of incendiary agent, and an outer plastic casing that provides "
18701"no fragmentation but more importantly doesn't slow down or otherwise impede "
18702"the delivery of the payload over a large area. The M71's casing is a smooth "
18703"cylinder shape, unlike the old 'pineapple' grenades of World War 2, to make "
18704"it easier to roll across various surfaces.\n"
18705"\n"
18706"Like all hand grenades, their range is limited, but they can be an essential "
18707"tool for achieving control of the battlefield.\n"
18708"\n"
18709"\n"
18710"Recommended Doctrine\n"
18711"\n"
18712"Incendiary grenades are tactical weapons that should be used to contain or "
18713"herd the enemy into disadvantageous ground. They cannot be thrown very far, "
18714"but they can serve to block off escape routes, to flush out rooms, or simply "
18715"to catch the enemy in a blazing inferno.\n"
18716"\n"
18717"Care should be taken that no friendlies (especially civilians) are caught in "
18718"the area of effect, as the effect of the thermate cocktail on human tissue "
18719"is a particular public relations nightmare. In such situations the use of "
18720"lethal grenades is strongly discouraged; flashbangs should be given "
18721"preference.\n"
18722"\n"
18723"It's recommended that all soldiers carrying non-heavy weapons should be "
18724"equipped with at least one grenade of some variety -- be it an incendiary "
18725"grenade, frag grenade, flashbang or other -- in case the need should arise. "
18726"Two or more are strongly recommended.\n"

18751"Overview\n"
18752"\n"
18753"The alien attack on Mumbai made our situation painfully clear. Their "
18754"technology is far more advanced than ours. The complete inability of "
18755"Commonwealth troops to make a dent in the Mumbai offensive revealed critical "
18756"weaknesses in current military training and equipment. They lost three "
18757"battalions just bringing the aliens to a standstill without inflicting "
18758"significant casualties. PHALANX has to overcome these odds, and to do that "
18759"we need the very best human technology has to offer.\n"
18760"\n"
18761"The Excalibur Program was created to find the most effective weapons on "
18762"Earth by reviewing their manufacturing standards, durability, operational "
18763"record, and their combat performance in the situations where we've managed "
18764"to bring the aliens to battle.\n"
18765"\n"
18766"First released on the open market in 2047, the Brazilian RA6 has received "
18767"numerous upgrades over the years that have kept it at the top of its field. "
18768"It is the most widely-used infantry grenade launcher in use today because of "
18769"its excellent reliability and low weight. It has an impressive selection of "
18770"compatible cartridges in the popular 25mm calibre.\n"
18771"\n"
18772"The RA6 carries up to 6 grenades individually loaded into a simple rotary "
18773"cylinder. The cylinder is hinged at the front and breaks open to accept "
18774"reloads. Reloading individual grenades can be a slow and agonising process, "
18775"but this is often the best way of going about it; while 25mm speedloaders do "
18776"exist and will work on the RA6, they are bulky and hard to carry around.\n"
18777"\n"
18778"The weapon has two fire modes. When fired in Impact mode, the grenades will "
18779"explode as soon as they hit something -- a wall or the target. They'll also "
18780"explode the moment they reach their target destination, a nice way to ensure "
18781"the grenade will explode near to where the soldier is aiming it.\n"
18782"\n"
18783"But it also has a Timer mode. When fired this way, the grenades will "
18784"detonate several seconds after leaving the barrel regardless of what happens "
18785"in those seconds. This is great for bouncing a grenade around a corner or "
18786"firing a long shot, but it is harder to be precise.\n"
18787"\n"
18788"This is one of the most versatile and effective weapons on our roster. While "
18789"not as powerful as the rocket launcher, it is a reliable support weapon and "
18790"infantry artillery piece.\n"
18791"\n"
18792"For PHALANX use, we have given this grenade launcher the classification "
18793"HPGL.\n"
18794"\n"
18795"\n"
18796"Recommended Doctrine\n"
18797"\n"
18798"The HPGL is a tactician's dream come true. It has excellent damage and "
18799"range, can hit several clustered targets with one blast, and can be used for "
18800"special tasks such as area denial with incendiary grenades. It can be as "
18801"effective in close situations as it is in large open spaces; however, "
18802"different tactics are required.\n"
18803"\n"
18804"For close-range emergency work -- for example if the operator has no sidearm "
18805"-- the launcher can also be loaded with special 25mm flechette shells "
18806"similar to our shotgun shells.\n"

18853"but this is often the best way of going about it; while 25mm speedloaders do "
18854"exist and will work on the RA6, they are bulky and hard to carry around.\n"
18855"\n"
18856"The weapon has two fire modes; timed shot, which will detonate grenades at a "
18857"set time after leaving the barrel, and airburst, which will detonate "
18858"grenades in the air after they have travelled a certain distance. The RA6's "
18859"maximum rate of fire is one round per second on semi-automatic, or it can "
18860"rapidly cycle through its cylinder on burst mode, firing quick three-round "
18861"bursts that can devastate whole areas.\n"
18862"\n"
18863"Standard ammunition for the RA6 is the 25mm HIT (High Impulse Thermobaric) "
18864"grenade, which is a 'fuel-air munition' that uses atmospheric oxygen to "
18865"generate an explosion instead of carrying along an oxidising agent. "
18866"Thermobaric weapons produce a far more powerful explosive force than would "
18867"be possible with conventional explosives of the same size. They rely on "
18868"explosive energy, concussion and heat for their lethality rather than on "
18869"fragmentation like most conventional explosives.\n"
18870"\n"
18871"This is one of the most versatile and effective weapons on our roster. While "
18872"not as powerful as the rocket launcher, it is a reliable support weapon and "
18873"infantry artillery piece.\n"
18874"\n"
18875"For PHALANX use, we have given this grenade launcher the classification "
18876"HPGL.\n"
18877"\n"
18878"\n"
18879"Recommended Doctrine\n"
18880"\n"
18881"The HPGL is a tactician's dream come true. It has excellent damage and "
18882"range, can hit several clustered targets with one blast, and can be used for "
18883"special tasks such as area denial with incendiary grenades. It can be as "
18884"effective in close situations as it is in large open spaces; however, "
18885"different tactics are required.\n"
18886"\n"
18887"The airburst mode is preferable for use in open ground; it sacrifices some "
18888"range by taking away the 'bounce' factor, but this also has its benefits. "
18889"The bounce factor can seriously foul accuracy if the grenade lands on an "
18890"uneven surface and can allow the enemy to run away or take cover before "
18891"detonation. Airburst fire also allows the operator to place his grenades "
18892"exactly where he wants them. Unless there is a catastrophic detonator "
18893"failure, any airburst fired from the HPGL will go off at the intended spot "
18894"with little chance for mechanical error.\n"
18895"\n"
18896"In close situations, timed grenades can be bounced off walls and around "
18897"corners to reach dangerous or inconvenient places that other weapons have "
18898"trouble getting a bead on. However, care should be taken that the operator "
18899"doesn't fire shots that leave himself or any friendly troops inside the "
18900"blast radius. This would make the operator very unpopular with what's left "
18901"of the team. Due to the bounce factor on timed grenades, they can also be a "
18902"severe hazard to nearby civilians. Use of the grenade launcher in situations "
18903"where civilians might become victim to collateral damage is strongly "
18904"discouraged.\n"
18905"\n"
18906"For close-range emergency work -- for example if the operator has no sidearm "
18907"-- the launcher can also be loaded with special 25mm flechette shells "
18908"similar to our shotgun shells. These have less damage potential than shotgun "
18909"shells due to their lower muzzle velocity, but they can still be deadly in "
18910"close quarters and, unlike explosive grenades, are not a risk to the "
18911"operator at short ranges.\n"

19268"Overview\n"
19269"\n"
19270"The alien attack on Mumbai made our situation painfully clear. Their "
19271"technology is far more advanced than ours. The complete inability of "
19272"Commonwealth troops to make a dent in the Mumbai offensive revealed critical "
19273"weaknesses in current military training and equipment. They lost three "
19274"battalions just bringing the aliens to a standstill without inflicting "
19275"significant casualties. PHALANX has to overcome these odds, and to do that "
19276"we need the very best human technology has to offer.\n"
19277"\n"
19278"The Excalibur Program was created not only to find the right weapons to "
19279"combat the alien threat, but also to find armour and other items of "
19280"battlefield utility to help our soldiers complete their missions and return "
19281"to base alive. These items are designed to increase a soldier's combat "
19282"effectiveness or general survivability.\n"
19283"\n"
19284"Infrared night-vision imaging has been used on battlefields for generations, "
19285"and miniaturisation technology has allowed it to become part of a soldier's "
19286"standard issue for nighttime operations. Advances in electronics over the "
19287"last 30 years have allowed IR imaging equipment to shrink to the size of "
19288"swimming goggles with no loss of efficiency.\n"
19289"\n"
19290"These goggles pick up all infrared emissions in the area and display them on "
19291"the inside of the lenses. They can be easily worn for the duration of a "
19292"nighttime engagement, greatly extending a soldier's visual range in the "
19293"darkness and allowing him to see targets through thin walls. Thick walls "
19294"present a greater obstacle and may obscure targets inside entirely. Of "
19295"course, there is no way to distinguish between the IR signatures of "
19296"civilians and those of aliens whenever we do not have direct line of sight. "
19297"Any readings taken through walls or other obstacles will not be conclusive.\n"
19298"\n"
19299"Our IR goggles will work even during the day, though their effectiveness "
19300"will be greatly reduced in daylight.\n"
19301"\n"
19302"Unfortunately, this technology does have its drawbacks. Wearing goggles "
19303"limits the soldier's peripheral vision and reduces hand-eye coordination, "
19304"causing a slight drop in accuracy. They will hamper a soldier's eyesight as "
19305"long as they are worn. Worse, our records from Mumbai confirm that some "
19306"aliens with low heat emissions don't show up on infrared at all. Detection "
19307"range for these aliens will actually be reduced, allowing them to sneak up "
19308"on us if no other members of the team are in range to spot the approaching "
19309"threat.\n"
19310"\n"
19311"In conclusion, these goggles will increase our nighttime performance "
19312"exponentially, making night engagements much more survivable for our troops. "
19313"However, they are not and will never be a foolproof substitute for the Mk. 1 "
19314"Eyeball.\n"
19315"\n"
19316"\n"
19317"Recommended Doctrine\n"
19318"\n"
19319"We should use these items sparingly and tactically to avoid costly mistakes. "
19320"It is recommended that no more than half the team wear goggles during an "
19321"engagement in order to avoid surprises. Two-man fireteams -- one man "
19322"equipped with goggles, one man with normal eyesight -- are recommended for "
19323"maximum battlefield effectiveness.\n"
19324"\n"
19325"Using goggles during daytime is generally contraindicated, as they lose most "
19326"of their utility in daylight conditions. The only reason to continue wearing "
19327"them under such conditions is their limited ability to see through walls.\n"
19328"\n"
19329"Close-range combat troops will suffer least from the accuracy penalty "
19330"inflicted by IR goggles. However, longer-range shooters cannot afford this "
19331"penalty, as a missed shot with one of these weapons may have dire "
19332"consequences. Snipers in particular will have infrared laser targeting "
19333"available via their scopes anyway.\n"

19435"is much more than that, and the truth is far from comforting.\n"
19436"\n"
19437"Crafted from carbon alloy and alien plastics, it is surprisingly light and "

19440"blade will not chip, nick or bend. We think we might be able to duplicate "
19441"the stuff with some more research.\n"
19442"\n"
19443"Its shape vaguely resembles the old curved swords from human history, though "
19444"perhaps it has more relation to something out of fantasy fiction. It's too "
19445"large, unwieldy and poorly balanced for the human hand. The blade, however, "
19446"tapers to an incredible edge; we have measured it to be only one molecule "
19447"wide. This gives the Kerrblade its fantastic cutting power.\n"
19448"\n"
19449"In our battlefield footage, we've seen the Kerrblade used with a curious, "
19450"long-fingered grip -- one which the human hand is unable to duplicate -- "
19451"that seems to indicate the Kerrblade is used as something other than a "
19452"purpose-designed weapon. The closest analogies we've been able to find on "
19453"Earth are those of a surgeon's scalpel and certain ancient disemboweling "
19454"tools. This comparison was one of our first clues as to the true purpose of "
19455"the Kerrblade. We put this together with some gruesome camera footage from "
19456"Mumbai, which was so grainy that we could only guess what the aliens were "
19457"doing, until now.\n"
19458"\n"
19459"The Kerrblade is, in fact, an autopsy tool. It's used by the aliens to cut "
19460"up live or dead humans and extract whatever tissue or organ they like. The "
19461"large, sharp spike at the bottom of the blade is inserted into the solar "
19462"plexus, then moved upwards like a pair of scissors, or a can opener. It goes "
19463"through the sternum with disturbing ease. At this point the alien will fold "
19464"open the ribcage and rip or cut out whatever he needs.\n"
19465"\n"
19466"I wish we could just burn the things, but unfortunately they're too damned "
19467"valuable. Though not primarily designed as weapons these Kerrblades are far "
19468"more effective than any human combat knife. They cut up aliens almost as "
19469"well as humans. The grip is highly uncomfortable for human hands, but we can "
19470"adapt human grips easily enough. However, the blades are too big to ever fit "
19471"into the standard-issue PHALANX holster. They can only be kept in a "

19474"in terms of power.\n"

19582"The laser pistol can only lase deuterium-fluoride at about half the rate as "

19584"strength beam, doing half the damage of a larger weapon. It requires a "
19585"period of continuous exposure -- several seconds at least -- for the beam to "
19586"inflict enough damage to kill an unarmoured target. Still, the laser will "
19587"burn through anything given enough time.\n"

19589"All the usual advantages of laser weaponry are present in the pistol. It's "
19590"very quick to fire, and if the soldier misses his target at first, he can "
19591"adjust his aim without letting go of the trigger.\n"
19592"\n"
19593"We've designed the pistol to use the standard deuterium-fluoride cartridges "
19594"which we've drawn up to power all of our laser weaponry. This means it uses "
19595"the same amount of D-F as the larger designs, but uses it up at a much lower "

19958"affected by rain, fog, smoke and other conditions that thicken the air or "
19959"release particles into it. Like all electric weapons, firing at airborne "
19960"targets will produce limited results, unless they're close enough to an "
19961"earthed object to allow the electricity to arc between them. In addition, "
19962"any electrolaser needs the right kind of atmosphere to be able to create a "
19963"plasma channel; taking them off of Earth could render them useless.\n"
19964"\n"
19965"Another, more practical issue is the power unit. We couldn't quite achieve "
19966"the desired power output profile using our standard deuterium-fluoride "
19967"cartridges, so we've had to make adjustments to the ammunition package "
19968"itself. I'm afraid this means that ammunition for the electrolaser is NOT "
19969"interchangeable with ammunition for our regular laser weaponry.\n"
19970"\n"
19971"Of course, no matter what the drawbacks might be, performance is light-years "
19972"ahead of Dr. Connor's stun rod. I highly recommend we replace all stun rods "
19973"currently in use with electrolasers as soon as humanly possible. For the "

20141"Overview\n"
20142"\n"
20143"In the past, the application of first aid and field surgery in hostile "
20144"situations required specially-trained combat medics and surgeons who could "
20145"handle the stresses of saving lives under fire. Troops who saw their friends "
20146"being hit usually had no choice but to keep fighting and hope the medics "
20147"would arrive in time -- that is, if they didn't freeze or panic or make some "
20148"futile attempt at a field dressing without ability or materials. If the "
20149"wounded survived at all, they'd still be out of action for weeks or months "
20150"at a time.\n"
20151"\n"
20152"This may have been a workable strategy in the trenches of World War 2, but "
20153"it isn't any longer. Waiting for a medic to arrive on the scene can "
20154"contribute to the death of a soldier who might have been saved by immediate "
20155"aid. The prompt application of trauma medicine needs to be made as quick and "
20156"easy as possible so that any soldier can provide life-saving effort with "
20157"minimal training. This is where the modern medikit comes in.\n"
20158"\n"
20159"Every medikit contains an onboard computer that can diagnose injuries via "
20160"directed X-ray and ultrasound. It can run ECGs and EEGs at the same time, "
20161"measure blood pressure and heart rate, and even calculate the soldier's "
20162"combat effectiveness based on his or her individual record (stored in a "
20163"small subdermal chip for medical, locational and identification purposes). "
20164"All this information can be shown in a small hologram or displayed directly "
20165"to a soldier's helmet information system. At the same time the medikit can "
20166"deploy a number of drugs and sterile surgical tools for emergency "
20167"operations, cauterise wounds via a special heating iron, and -- most "
20168"importantly -- apply its store of nanorobots to a wound.\n"
20169"\n"
20170"The old idea of medical nanobots was first put into practice by Vietnamese "
20171"researchers thirty years ago. Today, medicine without them is almost "
20172"unthinkable. Nanobots are tiny robots several micrometres in diameter which "
20173"can be programmed to perform specific tasks on the fly. They will quickly "
20174"sterilise a wound and seal ruptured arteries, alert the medikit operator "
20175"about any internal bleeding, request suction at appropriate places, patch up "
20176"bowel or stomach punctures, revive or remove necrotic tissue, and repair "
20177"nerve damage. They dissolve harmlessly in the victim's bloodstream once "
20178"their battery runs out, which lasts no longer than 10 to 15 seconds, often "
20179"not long enough to stabilise heavily-wounded troops. Two or more doses of "
20180"nanobots may be required. Any number of doses can be applied and metabolised "
20181"with no ill effects.\n"
20182"\n"
20183"This technology is the most important breakthrough in trauma surgery ever "
20184"made. It can do everything except regenerate tissue. If more attention is "
20185"required -- for example when a vital organ is hit, or a bullet is lodged in "
20186"a critical place -- the medikit provides equipment and detailed instructions "
20187"for the soldier to follow. It can never replace the operating room, but it's "
20188"as close to a portable hospital as we'll ever get.\n"
20189"\n"

20192"\n"

20195"recognise that our troops have a limited carrying capacity. All major wounds "
20196"should be treated without delay to prevent complications and further risk to "
20197"the injured soldier. If the victim can still walk, she should retreat from "
20198"the firefight and seek cover in order to safely receive treatment by a "
20199"comrade.\n"
20200"\n"
20201"The medikit's onboard pharmacy can also be used to revive unconscious "
20202"soldiers. If this is done, please take care to remove the revived troop from "
20203"the line of fire as soon as possible and proceed with further treatment from "
20204"a safe position. The medic herself may be forced to engage approaching "
20205"targets to enable the patient's escape; this is acceptable practice, but "
20206"please supply the medic with adequate covering fire. Trading one soldier's "
20207"life for another does not make for good battlefield mathematics.\n"
20208"\n"
20209"Once a wounded soldier makes it back to base alive, our medical team will "
20210"take over treatment. The risk of anyone succumbing to battlefield trauma "
20211"while in a PHALANX ward is less than one percent, and as near to zero as we "

20219"effort to keep them alive. It will restore a small amount of health, but "
20220"soldiers will need to recover back at base.\n"
20221"\n"
20222"Stimulants can be used to revive a soldier who has fallen unconcious as a "
20223"result of being stunned or gassed.\n"

20325"When the aliens need a sidearm, they don't screw around.\n"
20326"\n"
20327"This plasma pistol is a nasty piece of work, Commander. Its operation is "
20328"extremely complex and inventive, requiring a great deal of technical skill "
20329"to create. The power pack alone is hundreds of years ahead of our "
20330"technology. It stores enough power to heat several charges of hydrogen to a "
20331"plasmatic state inside the miniature fusion chamber, which are expelled as "
20332"plasma using the ionised particles' own velocity.\n"
20333"\n"
20334"Unlike human firearms, the projectiles themselves are not stored in a "
20335"magazine or reservoir. They are generated inside the pistol from hydrogen "
20336"contained in the magazine, powered by the magazine's power-pack. Once the "
20337"plasma is heated, a thin film of liquid plastic is created between the two "
20338"'spinnerets' located vertically opposite each other in front of the grip. "
20339"The plasma particles are then rapidly fired into the film so that the "
20340"plastic deforms into an orb or 'bolt'. The plastic contains and protects the "
20341"plasma, keeping it from dispersing until it reaches the target. By the time "
20342"a bolt reaches the target, the inside of the plastic will be so eaten away "
20343"that it will burst upon impact like a soap bubble, splashing its payload "
20344"across the target. The maximum range of a pistol bolt -- the point it can "
20345"reach before the plasma eats into open air and disperses -- is approximately "
20346"20 metres.\n"
20347"\n"
20348"A bolt fired from the plasma pistol is so hot that even a near-miss can be "
20349"lethal. The effects on a victim are truly horrific; I will try to list them "
20350"all here.\n"
20351"\n"
20352"Any unarmoured human sprayed with this plasma will suffer extreme pain and "
20353"injuries all across the splash zone. Adipose (fatty) tissue will melt like "
20354"water. Blood and other bodily fluids boil in place. The plasma will actually "
20355"eat its way into a human body, causing bone-deep charring in a large region "

20376"When the aliens need a sidearm, they don't screw around.\n"

20378"This plasma pistol is a nasty piece of work, Commander. Its operation is "
20379"extremely complex and inventive, requiring a great deal of technical skill "
20380"to create. The power pack alone is hundreds of years ahead of our "
20381"technology. It stores enough power to heat several charges of hydrogen to a "
20382"plasmatic state inside the miniature fusion chamber, which are expelled as "
20383"plasma using the ionised particles' own velocity.\n"
20384"\n"
20385"Unlike human firearms, the projectiles themselves are not stored in a "
20386"magazine or reservoir. They are generated inside the pistol from hydrogen "
20387"contained in the magazine, powered by the magazine's power-pack. Once the "
20388"plasma is heated, a thin film of liquid plastic is created between the two "
20389"'spinnerets' located vertically opposite each other in front of the grip. "
20390"The plasma particles are then rapidly fired into the film so that the "
20391"plastic deforms into an orb or 'bolt'. The plastic contains and protects the "
20392"plasma, keeping it from dispersing until it reaches the target. By the time "
20393"a bolt reaches the target, the inside of the plastic will be so eaten away "
20394"that it will burst upon impact like a soap bubble, splashing its payload "
20395"across the target. The maximum range of a pistol bolt -- the point it can "
20396"reach before the plasma eats into open air and disperses -- is approximately "
20397"20 metres.\n"
20398"\n"
20399"A bolt fired from the plasma pistol is so hot that even a near-miss can be "
20400"lethal. The effects on a victim are truly horrific; I will try to list them "
20401"all here.\n"
20402"\n"
20403"Any unarmoured human sprayed with this plasma will suffer extreme pain and "
20404"injuries all across the splash zone. Adipose (fatty) tissue will melt like "
20405"water. Blood and other bodily fluids boil in place. The plasma will actually "
20406"eat its way into a human body, causing bone-deep charring in a large region "
20407"around the splash zone. A large chunk of the body will be literally burnt to "
20408"a crisp.\n"

20732"Commander, here's my report on our alien plasma rifle research.\n"
20733"\n"
20734"At its most basic level, the plasma rifle is little more than an upscaled "
20735"version of the plasma pistol. However, as any firearms fanatic will tell "
20736"you, pistols are pistols and rifles are rifles. Handguns are small, personal "
20737"defence weapons. Rifles are weapons of war. The disparity in power is "
20738"remarkable.\n"
20739"\n"
20740"Rifle plasma is over 20% hotter than pistol plasma and capable of burning "
20741"through even heavy armour. The plastic globes containing the rifle's plasma "
20742"shots are much thicker than the pistol's, only beginning to disintegrate at "
20743"distances between 80-100m. This is a short maximum range for a general-"
20744"purpose assault rifle, but ideal for urban infantry engagements and other "
20745"close-quarters work. The bolts do not suffer from projectile drop and "
20746"they're far too massive to be affected by wind conditions. This makes the "
20747"plasma rifle highly accurate at all ranges.\n"
20748"\n"
20749"The scariest new feature of this weapon is the fact that it is capable of "
20750"automatic fire. Its rate of fire on full-auto may not be very high -- "
20751"approx. 180 rounds per minute -- and the recoil is difficult to handle, but "
20752"it more than makes up for these failings with sheer power. Two or three "
20753"solid plasma rifle hits are usually all it takes to kill a human in light or "
20754"medium-grade armour. An unarmoured soldier has no hope at all.\n"

20767"Commander, here's my report on our alien plasma rifle research.\n"
20768"\n"
20769"At its most basic level, the plasma rifle is little more than an upscaled "
20770"version of the plasma pistol. However, as any firearms fanatic will tell "
20771"you, pistols are pistols and rifles are rifles. Handguns are small, personal "
20772"defence weapons. Rifles are weapons of war. The disparity in power is "
20773"remarkable.\n"
20774"\n"
20775"Rifle plasma is over 20% hotter than pistol plasma and capable of burning "
20776"through even heavy armour. The plastic globes containing the rifle's plasma "
20777"shots are much thicker than the pistol's, only beginning to disintegrate at "
20778"distances between 80-100m. This is a short maximum range for a general-"
20779"purpose assault rifle, but ideal for urban infantry engagements and other "
20780"close-quarters work. The bolts do not suffer from projectile drop and "
20781"they're far too massive to be affected by wind conditions. This makes the "
20782"plasma rifle highly accurate at all ranges.\n"
20783"\n"
20784"The scariest new feature of this weapon is the fact that it is capable of "
20785"automatic fire. Its rate of fire on full-auto may not be very high -- "
20786"approx. 180 rounds per minute -- and the recoil is difficult to handle, but "
20787"it more than makes up for these failings with sheer power. Two or three "
20788"solid plasma rifle hits are usually all it takes to kill a human in light or "
20789"medium-grade armour. An unarmoured soldier has no hope at all.\n"
20790"\n"
20791"We've figured out the controls on the rifle and written up a manual for "
20792"field use. Our troops should be able to make good use of it.\n"

20826"\n"
20827"The Encased Plasma Ammo is essentially a shape charge miniaturized to fit "
20828"inside of a traditional rifle. It consists of a small plasma core, a tip "
20829"that fragments on impact and a soft outer casing. When the bullet hits its "
20830"target, the tip fragments and the small plasma core slams into the armour. "
20831"The speed of the blow causes the soft outer casing to deform, creating a "
20832"sealed shell around the plasma core and trapping the heat so that it burns "
20833"through the armour.\n"

20870"Commander, we've finished analysing the alien needler gun, and I've prepared "
20871"a threat assessment and technical overview for you.\n"
20872"\n"
20873"As I mentioned in my research proposal, the needler is indeed a type of "
20874"rifle, but an unusual one. Like a machine gun, it is designed to saturate a "
20875"target with projectiles, but it takes this concept much further. It vomits "
20876"out hundreds and hundreds of ultra-fast silicon steel needles which can "
20877"easily tear apart a target.\n"
20878"\n"
20879"The needles are fired by a fast-changing magnetic field inside the barrel, "
20880"hooked up to a feed mechanism that injects thousands of needles a minute "
20881"into the barrel. This creates a near-constant stream of fire which lasts for "
20882"as long as you hold down the trigger and the magazine holds out. Unlike "
20883"bullets, these needles have a practically flat trajectory from muzzle to "
20884"target. They punch through most armour like it doesn't exist. They're so low "
20885"in mass that there's little appreciable recoil when firing. They are easily "
20886"knocked off course for the same reason, but so many needles are put down "
20887"range that even distant shots are likely to make some contact with the "
20888"enemy.\n"
20889"\n"
20890"One of the main components that caught my attention is the powerful "
20891"electromagnet array. It's laid out as a 'coilgun', many electromagnetic "
20892"coils wrapped around the barrel, a method we'd previously thought to be too "
20893"energy-inefficient to use on the battlefield. The aliens seem to have made "
20894"it viable through clever use of superconductors and alien engineering. We "
20895"may be able to adapt this technology to our own EM weapons research. I've "
20896"put a new research proposal in your queue along these lines.\n"
20897"\n"
20898"The Needler's electromagnet array makes it much heavier than the average "
20899"rifle, which could reduce the effectiveness of some of our troops. But given "
20900"its deadly power, I'm sure more than a few of our boys will gladly shed some "
20901"other equipment to carry the Needler into battle.\n"
20902"\n"
20903"Equipped with a bipod for prone firing and a very large magazine, the "
20904"needler is a serious threat to our troops. Snipers can inflict serious "
20905"casualties on exposed troops and we cannot afford the losses. If a needler "
20906"is spotted, our soldiers will have to make optimal use of cover and try to "
20907"flank whilst staying out of sight. A direct assault on an entrenched needler "

21261"The alien attack on Mumbai made our situation painfully clear. Their "
21262"technology is far more advanced than ours. The complete inability of "
21263"Commonwealth troops to make a dent in the Mumbai offensive revealed critical "
21264"weaknesses in current military training and equipment. They lost three "
21265"battalions just bringing the aliens to a standstill without inflicting "
21266"significant casualties. PHALANX has to overcome these odds, and to do that "
21267"we need the very best human technology has to offer.\n"
21268"\n"
21269"The Excalibur Program was created to find the most effective weapons on "
21270"Earth by reviewing their manufacturing standards, durability, operational "
21271"record, and their combat performance in the situations where we've managed "
21272"to bring the aliens to battle.\n"
21273"\n"
21274"From our experiences in Mumbai and other stricken cities, we've concluded "
21275"that the aliens seem to concentrate their efforts on population centres, "
21276"especially dense urban areas. A majority of engagements have taken place at "
21277"knife-fighting range. For the purposes of the Excalibur Program, we've "
21278"chosen several high-performance weapons for our Close Range Combat package.\n"
21279"\n"
21280"The 425 Blesk is a miniature shotgun hailing from the Czech Republic, a "
21281"favourite of anti-terrorist and military reconnaissance units around the "
21282"world. It is highly prized for its small frame, manoeuvrability, lightweight "
21283"construction and reliable operation in combat. It is a significant "
21284"competitor with the CRC-212 Riot Shotgun for the hearts and minds of shotgun-"
21285"wielding soldiers.\n"
21286"\n"
21287"The Blesk sacrifices versatility and range for raw speed. It is a 12mm semi-"
21288"automatic, able to shoot as fast as the operator can pull the trigger; there "
21289"is no other shotgun in existence that responds as fast or as easily to new "
21290"threats as the Blesk. In its standard configuration, the weapon features a "
21291"folding foregrip in lieu of a buttstock in order to help the operator deal "
21292"with the recoil of repeated firings.\n"
21293"\n"
21294"Unfortunately, the short barrel cuts badly into effective range, making it "
21295"accurate only out to 10-20 metres, but this is usually enough for the tight "
21296"urban situations in which PHALANX will be operating most often. It is also "
21297"more than enough for a sidearm; the Blesk will fit into a sidearm holster "
21298"with minor modifications and can be set to deploy the foregrip as the weapon "
21299"is drawn, allowing immediate accurate fire as needed.\n"
21300"\n"
21301"The weapon chambered for the common 12mm shotgun calibre. It can fit 7 slugs "
21302"in a handy pistol-style magazine contained in the grip, which makes it much "
21303"faster to reload than the CRC-212 Riot Shotgun. However, it requires short "
21304"shells that can fit into the grip magazine, such as our flechette shells. It "
21305"cannot fit the full-length saboted slugs.\n"
21306"\n"
21307"There are only a handful of weapons that can compete with the Blesk for "
21308"sheer short-range devastation. Its speed combined with flechette ammo makes "
21309"for a deadly mix that can be relied upon to quickly dispatch any enemy "
21310"stupid enough to get into range.\n"

21319"It is meant only for close-range firefights, where shotguns and sidearms "
21320"shine. However, M9 operators should keep a close eye on their ammo level so "
21321"that they don't run out in a tight spot.\n"

21551"\n"
21552"Designed and manufactured in mainland China, the Ohm 55 SMG is one of the "
21553"most frightening weapons to come out of the Second Cold War. It was first "
21554"prototyped in 2035 by scientists working for the Communist Chinese "
21555"government. Production models were only trickling into government units by "
21556"the end of the war, but the rebel and Commonwealth troops quickly learned to "
21557"respect the Ohm's ferocity.\n"
21558"\n"
21559"Its rate of fire at full auto exceeds 1200 rounds per minute. It can chew "
21560"through a 50-round magazine in three seconds. It fires an upgraded version "
21561"of the Belgian 5.7mm armour-piercing round, a steel penetrator with "
21562"aluminium core, which can tear kevlar like paper and tumbles brutally "
21563"through flesh and bone. Even modern ballistic fibre cannot stop this round "
21564"at anything closer than 12 metres. The Ohm 55 has dominated the field of "
21565"SMGs for the past 50 years and will continue to do so for at least the next "
21566"decade.\n"
21567"\n"
21568"The Ohm is highly manoeuvrable with a short barrel and sleek lines, but can "
21569"suffer from excessive muzzle climb on full auto due to the sheer weight of "
21570"lead the weapon puts out. Autofire also tends to empty the magazine before "
21571"the shooter even realises he's holding down the trigger. Still, after nearly "
21572"50 years in service around the world, this remains the Ohm 55's only known "
21573"design flaw.\n"

21576"CRC-8.\n"
21577"\n"
21578"\n"
21579"Recommended Doctrine\n"
21580"\n"
21581"The CRC-8 is intended for point-blank urban firefights. It will perform very "
21582"well in this role, but don't expect it to hit the broad side of a barn out "
21583"to medium range. It can also function as a high-powered sidearm, but may be "
21584"too bulky for most soldiers to use in this manner.\n"
21585"\n"
21586"While the CRC-8 does suffer excessive muzzle climb on full auto, throwing "
21587"off the aim of even experienced users, it is much more docile in its "
21588"standard burst mode. Full auto should rarely be considered outside of panic "
21589"situations.\n"

21612"Overview\n"
21613"\n"
21614"The alien attack on Mumbai made our situation painfully clear. Their "
21615"technology is far more advanced than ours. The complete inability of "
21616"Commonwealth troops to make a dent in the Mumbai offensive revealed critical "
21617"weaknesses in current military training and equipment. They lost three "
21618"battalions just bringing the aliens to a standstill without inflicting "
21619"significant casualties. PHALANX has to overcome these odds, and to do that "
21620"we need the very best human technology has to offer.\n"
21621"\n"
21622"The Excalibur Program was created to find the most effective weapons on "
21623"Earth by reviewing their manufacturing standards, durability, operational "
21624"record, and their combat performance in the situations where we've managed "
21625"to bring the aliens to battle.\n"
21626"\n"
21627"From our experiences in Mumbai and other stricken cities, we've concluded "
21628"that the aliens seem to concentrate their efforts on population centres, "
21629"especially dense urban areas. A majority of engagements have taken place at "
21630"knife-fighting range. For the purposes of the Excalibur Program, we've "
21631"chosen several high-performance weapons for our Close Range Combat package.\n"
21632"\n"
21633"Designed and manufactured in mainland China, the Ohm 55 SMG is one of the "
21634"most frightening weapons to come out of the Second Cold War. It was first "
21635"prototyped in 2035 by scientists working for the Communist Chinese "
21636"government. Production models were only trickling into government units by "
21637"the end of the war, but the rebel and Commonwealth troops quickly learned to "
21638"respect the Ohm's ferocity.\n"
21639"\n"
21640"Its rate of fire at full auto exceeds 1200 rounds per minute. It can chew "
21641"through a 50-round magazine in three seconds. It fires an upgraded version "
21642"of the Belgian 5.7mm armour-piercing round, a steel penetrator with "
21643"aluminium core, which can tear kevlar like paper and tumbles brutally "
21644"through flesh and bone. Even modern ballistic fibre cannot stop this round "
21645"at anything closer than 12 metres. The Ohm 55 has dominated the field of "
21646"SMGs for the past 50 years and will continue to do so for at least the next "
21647"decade.\n"
21648"\n"
21649"The Ohm is highly manoeuvrable with a short barrel and sleek lines, but can "
21650"suffer from excessive muzzle climb on full auto due to the sheer weight of "
21651"lead the weapon puts out. Autofire also tends to empty the magazine before "
21652"the shooter even realises he's holding down the trigger. Still, after nearly "
21653"50 years in service around the world, this remains the Ohm 55's only known "
21654"design flaw.\n"
21655"\n"
21656"For PHALANX use, we have given this submachine gun the classification "
21657"CRC-8.\n"
21658"\n"
21659"\n"
21660"Recommended Doctrine\n"
21661"\n"
21662"The CRC-8 is intended for point-blank urban firefights. It will perform very "
21663"well in this role, but don't expect it to hit the broad side of a barn out "
21664"to medium range. It can also function as a high-powered sidearm, but may be "
21665"too bulky for most soldiers to use in this manner.\n"
21666"\n"
21667"While the CRC-8 does suffer excessive muzzle climb on full auto, throwing "
21668"off the aim of even experienced users, it is much more docile in its "
21669"standard burst mode. Full auto should rarely be considered outside of panic "
21670"situations.\n"

21929"Originally an anti-materiel rifle, the Canada-built Forrester LRWS (Long "
21930"Range Weapon System) has since been adopted by many countries as their "
21931"principal sniper rifle. It is one of the bare handful of sniper rifles "
21932"developed after 2040 that do not feature a bullpup configuration ('bullpup' "
21933"meaning the magazine and action of the weapon are located behind the grip to "
21934"reduce overall weapon length). It fires the massive 20mm HMG (Heavy Machine "
21935"Gun) cartridge, fed by 8-round magazines which can weigh as much as one "
21936"kilogramme apiece. The piston-retarded floating breech is equipped with an "
21937"intricate gas dispersal system which decreases felt recoil to the level of "
21938"an ordinary hunting rifle. This allows repeated shots without losing "
21939"control.\n"
21940"\n"
21941"The greatest advantages of the LRWS over other modern sniper rifles are its "
21942"incredibly short barrel and light weight, the only rifle in its size class "
21943"that can fire the 20mm HMG round. This is made possible by a uniquely-"
21944"reinforced breech and barrel made almost entirely of tungsten and titanium "
21945"alloys, able to withstand the force of the round's super-high-velocity "
21946"powder. Due to its short barrel, designed for tactical urban situations, the "
21947"LRWS is not as effective at very great distance, but for a PHALANX squad's "
21948"typical short-range skirmishing, this should not become a problem.\n"
21949"\n"
21950"The buttstock and grip automatically mould themselves to fit any shooter. "
21951"Most importantly, this rifle has racked up more alien kills in Mumbai than "
21952"any other weapon deployed in the fighting.\n"
21953"\n"
21954"At half the weight of other sniper rifles and twice the manoeuvrability, the "
21955"LRWS offers the power and flexibility that our agents require.\n"
21956"\n"
21957"For PHALANX use, we have given this rifle the classification S-1.\n"
21958"\n"
21959"\n"
21960"Recommended Doctrine\n"
21961"\n"
21962"Soldiers equipped with the S-1 should keep their distance, fire from cover, "
21963"and try to use aimed shots whenever possible. This is not an automatic "
21964"weapon; it is too unwieldy to fire off quick snap shots with any accuracy. "
21965"Marksmen should assume a crouched firing position for extra stability "
21966"whenever possible.\n"
21967"\n"
21968"All our snipers should carry at least one backup sidearm such as the P-12 or "
21969"the CRC-8 SMG, or a combat knife at the very least. Should aliens threaten a "
21970"sniper at close range, he should immediately draw his sidearm. Under no "
21971"circumstances should he try to use an S-1 to fend off attackers at close "
21972"range. The S-1 is too slow-firing to stop an advancing alien and will "
21973"quickly deplete its magazine if this is attempted. If the soldier tries to "
21974"shoot his magazine dry before drawing his sidearm, it will be too late.\n"

22033"accuracy is amended by a highly-advanced scope that will calculate and "
22034"display intelligent bullet trajectories wherever the rifle is pointing.\n"
22035"\n"
22036"The integral 'smart' bipod features a pneumatic suspension system that keeps "
22037"the barrel perfectly horizontal to allow accurate fire even on broken "
22038"ground. The buttstock and grip automatically mould themselves to fit any "
22039"shooter. Most importantly, this rifle has racked up more alien kills in "
22040"Mumbai than any other weapon deployed in the fighting.\n"
22041"\n"
22042"At half the weight of other sniper rifles and twice the manoeuvrability, the "
22043"LRWS offers the power and flexibility that our agents require. This weapon "
22044"will not disappoint.\n"
22045"\n"
22046"For PHALANX use, we have given this rifle the classification S-1.\n"
22047"\n"
22048"\n"
22049"Recommended Doctrine\n"
22050"\n"
22051"Soldiers equipped with the S-1should keep their distance, fire from cover, "
22052"and try to use aimed shots whenever possible. This is not an automatic "
22053"weapon; a missed shot wastes time, ammunition and possibly life.\n"
22054"\n"
22055"All our snipers should carry at least one backup sidearm such as the P-12 or "
22056"the CRC-8 SMG, or a combat knife at the very least. Should aliens threaten a "
22057"sniper at close range, he should immediately draw his sidearm. Under no "
22058"circumstances should he try to use an S-1 to fend off attackers at close "
22059"range. The S-1 is too slow-firing to stop an advancing alien and will "
22060"quickly deplete its magazine if this is attempted. If the soldier tries to "
22061"shoot his magazine dry before drawing his sidearm, it will be too late.\n"
22062"\n"
22063"\n"
22064"Addenda\n"
22065"\n"
22066"Along with high-explosive rockets and grenades, this is one of the few "
22067"standard-issue human weapons that are fully effective against robotic aliens."

22424"I hope I'm not overstepping my bounds, but I have an important technical "
22425"research proposal to make, a proposal to create a new piece of PHALANX "
22426"equipment for use by our field agents. I realise this falls outside the "
22427"responsibilities of my division. However, I've already discussed things with "
22428"Cdr. Navarre, and he doesn't quite see eye-to-eye with me on the necessity "
22429"of the item in question. I had no choice but to go to straight to you with "
22430"the proposal.\n"
22431"\n"
22432"Now that we know how to keep captured aliens alive in containment, our lack "
22433"of specimens is becoming a serious impediment to our biological and chemical "
22434"research. We need living tissue to study, performing its natural functions "
22435"inside a living body, and we don't have the ability to simply clone up some "
22436"aliens to research. We need prisoners. The sooner the better.\n"
22437"\n"
22438"That's why I would like to propose a simple but high-powered electrical "
22439"shock weapon, not unlike a military stun gun, designed to disable our "
22440"enemies without killing them. It would be a two-handed man-portable unit "
22441"with a large battery and several charge settings, the highest of which "
22442"should be sufficient to disable the hardiest alien races we may encounter. "
22443"We in DivBio believe that any alien subjected to this weapon would be "
22444"disabled long enough for our soldiers to take control of the situation and "
22445"secure prisoners. The electrical shock could still be countered by "
22446"sophisticated armour and may not be effective on robotic alien devices.\n"

22449"soldiers and \"a throwback to the 20th century\", and refuses to endorse it. "

22469"I hope I'm not overstepping my bounds, but I have an important technical "
22470"research proposal to make, a proposal to create a new piece of PHALANX "
22471"equipment for use by our field agents. I realise this falls outside the "
22472"responsibilities of my division. However, I've already discussed things with "
22473"Cdr. Navarre, and he doesn't quite see eye-to-eye with me on the necessity "
22474"of the item in question. I had no choice but to go to straight to you with "
22475"the proposal.\n"
22476"\n"
22477"As you know, we've yet to capture an alien alive during our tactical "
22478"engagements in all the weeks we've been waging this war. Now that we know "
22479"how to keep them alive in containment, our lack of specimens is becoming a "
22480"serious impediment to our biological and chemical research. We need living "
22481"tissue to study, performing its natural functions inside a living body, and "
22482"we don't have the ability to simply clone up some aliens to research. We "
22483"need prisoners. The sooner the better.\n"
22484"\n"
22485"That's why I would like to propose a simple but high-powered electrical "
22486"shock weapon, not unlike a military stun gun, designed to disable our "
22487"enemies without killing them. It would be a two-handed man-portable unit "
22488"with a large battery and several charge settings, the highest of which "
22489"should be sufficient even to disable alien robots such as the Bloodspider. "
22490"We in DivBio believe that any alien subjected to this weapon would be "
22491"disabled long enough for our soldiers to take control of the situation and "
22492"secure prisoners.\n"

22808"Commander, my method worked. I think we've managed to crack the secrets of "
22809"the mysterious particle beam weaponry. Here are my conclusions.\n"
22810"\n"
22811"The appearance of man-portable particle beam weaponry suggests a serious "
22812"escalation in this war. Prior to being shot at with it, we had no idea that "
22813"the aliens possessed such advanced technology, and we have no idea why it "
22814"was not deployed before now. The aliens' motivations and strategy remain a "
22815"complete mystery to us. Still, I don't believe I'm overstating the issue "
22816"that these weapons change everything.\n"
22817"\n"
22818"When I try to describe this, you have to understand that I'm not talking "
22819"about the actual weapons. As I've mentioned in my reports, the weapons "
22820"themselves are basically nothing more than a metal shell around a set of "
22821"magnets and electrostatic lenses, all used for focusing and constricting the "
22822"particle beam. The real magic happens in a space about the size of my fist. "
22823"I'm talking about what we have previously thought of as the 'magazine', "
22824"until now. What it actually is is unbelievable.\n"
22825"\n"
22826"Each individual magazine is actually a synchrotron particle accelerator of "
22827"mind-blowingly tiny proportions, wrapped around a battery pack so small that "
22828"we can't even begin to imagine how they built it. The synchrotron speeds "
22829"particles round and round in a very small circle -- less than the diameter "
22830"of the magazine -- until they've achieved sufficient velocity. The particles "
22831"are then diverted via a magnetic field into the focusing array, where they "
22832"are magnetically constricted -- 'pinched' -- into a coherent beam.\n"
22833"\n"
22834"Commander, there is no chance in hell that we can build accelerators this "
22835"complex this small. Not in our lifetimes. Neither we at PHALANX nor the rest "
22836"of the world have the precision machinery or the knowledge necessary to "
22837"duplicate the alien technology. We've documented how the weapons works, and "
22838"they're simple enough to produce, but if we actually want to use them we're "
22839"going to have to scrounge magazines off the aliens. Worse, these little "
22840"accelerators are put under tremendous amounts of strain in their lifetimes, "
22841"and they'll start to malfunction after being used only a few times. Our ammo "
22842"supply will be spotty at best, limited to whatever we can recover in the "
22843"field.\n"
22844"\n"
22845"If the aliens have widespread access to this sort of technology, and they "
22846"obviously do, I couldn't tell you why they haven't just waltzed in and "
22847"mashed humanity into paste. Their war machine is several orders of magnitude "

22860"Commander, my method worked. I think we've managed to crack the secrets of "
22861"the mysterious particle beam weaponry. Here are my conclusions.\n"
22862"\n"
22863"The appearance of man-portable particle beam weaponry suggests a serious "
22864"escalation in this war. Prior to being shot at with it, we had no idea that "
22865"the aliens possessed such advanced technology, and we have no idea why it "
22866"was not deployed before now. The aliens' motivations and strategy remain a "
22867"complete mystery to us. Still, I don't believe I'm overstating the issue "
22868"that these weapons change everything.\n"
22869"\n"
22870"When I try to describe this, you have to understand that I'm not talking "
22871"about the actual weapons. As I've mentioned in my reports, the weapons "
22872"themselves are basically nothing more than a metal shell around a set of "
22873"magnets and electrostatic lenses, all used for focusing and constricting the "
22874"particle beam. The real magic happens in a space about the size of my fist. "
22875"I'm talking about what we have previously thought of as the 'magazine', "
22876"until now. What it actually is is unbelievable.\n"
22877"\n"
22878"Each individual magazine is actually a synchrotron particle accelerator of "
22879"mind-blowingly tiny proportions, wrapped around a battery pack so small that "
22880"we can't even begin to imagine how they built it. The synchrotron speeds "
22881"particles round and round in a very small circle -- less than the diameter "
22882"of the magazine -- until they've achieved sufficient velocity. The particles "
22883"are then diverted via a magnetic field into the focusing array, where they "
22884"are magnetically constricted -- 'pinched' -- into a coherent beam.\n"
22885"\n"
22886"Commander, there is no chance in hell that we can build accelerators this "
22887"complex this small. Not in our lifetimes. Neither we at PHALANX nor the rest "
22888"of the world have the precision machinery or the knowledge necessary to "
22889"duplicate the alien technology. We've documented how the weapons works, and "
22890"they're simple enough to produce, but if we actually want to use them we're "
22891"going to have to scrounge magazines off the aliens. Worse, these little "
22892"accelerators are put under tremendous amounts of strain in their lifetimes, "
22893"and they'll start to malfunction after being used only a few times. Our ammo "
22894"supply will be spotty at best, limited to whatever we can recover in the "
22895"field.\n"
22896"\n"
22897"If the aliens have widespread access to this sort of technology, and they "
22898"obviously do, I couldn't tell you why they haven't just waltzed in and "
22899"mashed humanity into paste. Their war machine is several orders of magnitude "
22900"greater than ours. Their technology is more advanced, they have more numbers "
22901"and better aircraft, and yet they're still coming at us in fits and starts. "
22902"It's baffling. However, any good soldier will tell you that 'why' doesn't "
22903"matter right now. They're the ones making the mistake and it's up to us to "
22904"take advantage of it.\n"

23464"Operations Command\n"
23465"\n"
23466"\n"
23467"\n"
23468"Overview\n"
23469"\n"
23470"The alien attack on Mumbai made our situation painfully clear. Their "
23471"technology is far more advanced than ours. The complete inability of "
23472"Commonwealth troops to make a dent in the Mumbai offensive revealed critical "
23473"weaknesses in current military training and equipment. They lost three "
23474"battalions just bringing the aliens to a standstill without inflicting "
23475"significant casualties. PHALANX has to overcome these odds, and to do that "
23476"we need the very best human technology has to offer.\n"
23477"\n"
23478"The Excalibur Program was created to find the most effective weapons on "
23479"Earth by reviewing their manufacturing standards, durability, operational "
23480"record, and their combat performance in the situations where we've managed "
23481"to bring the aliens to battle.\n"
23482"\n"
23483"The British SA-3000 GPG (General-Purpose Gun), colloquially known as the "
23484"Great British Gun, is a versatile drum-fed machine gun that has seen service "
23485"throughout the world in its 16-year operational life. First deployed in "
23486"2068, it quickly found its niche as a light machine gun for infantry and "
23487"ground-support helicopters, able to be fired from the hip as easily as from "
23488"a bipod or pintle mount.\n"
23489"\n"
23490"The infantry version of the GPG is a highly versatile and reliable gun. "
23491"Unlike most machine guns the GPG takes caseless ammunition from a large drum "
23492"magazine instead of a belt. This limits fire rate and magazine endurance, "
23493"but it's also the reason for the weapon's versatility. The reloading process "
23494"for the GPG is almost as quick and easy as an assault rifle, and the drums "
23495"contain 100 rounds each. This allows the GPG to be used almost as a heavy "
23496"assault rifle. The magazines are on the bulky side, but still small and "
23497"light enough for an average soldier to carry several of them into battle.\n"
23498"\n"
23499"The gun contains surprisingly few computerised components, only a powerful "
23500"recoil compensator and shock absorbing system. This helps to improve "
23501"accuracy above that of older machine guns, although it's never going to be a "
23502"sniper rifle. The solid design and sheer simplicity of its internals combine "
23503"to make the GPG a very reliable weapon. It has seen action in Mumbai and "
23504"performed admirably there, providing effective and highly mobile suppressive "
23505"fire, sometimes capable of pinning down whole alien squads depending on the "
23506"terrain.\n"
23507"\n"
23508"The GPG fires the popular 4.7mm caseless round, also used in our AR-80 "
23509"Assault Rifle. Unfortunately the magazines are not interchangeable between "
23510"Assault Rifle and GPG, as the Assault Rifle uses a different feed system.\n"
23511"\n"
23512"We feel that the GPG is the best candidate for our arsenal in the machine "
23513"gun category. Our troops can depend on this gun to deliver heaps of fire "
23514"when and where they need it most.\n"
23515"\n"
23516"For PHALANX use, we have given this machine gun the classification MG12.\n"
23517"\n"
23518"\n"
23519"Recommended Doctrine\n"
23520"\n"
23521"The MG12 will be an extremely valuable tool in controlling the battlefield. "
23522"It can set up mobile strongpoints from which to stage attacks on alien "
23523"positions, it can provide effective suppressive or diversionary fire from "
23524"all ranges, or it can be used simply as a powerful medium-range assault "
23525"weapon.\n"
23526"\n"
23527"It should be a prime candidate for any soldier with heavy weapons training.\n"
23528"\n"
23529"\n"
23530"Addenda\n"
23531"\n"
23532"None."

32992#~ "\n"
32993#~ "First, some background. During our initial analyses of the aliens' "
32994#~ "cellular structure, we encountered some anomalies where our DNA "
32995#~ "replication tests would fail due to unexplained sample contamination. We "
32996#~ "initially discarded this as human error, but the problem has continued to "
32997#~ "appear with unerring regularity. The same result, again and again; every "
32998#~ "time we run a sample that hasn't been cryofrozen for storage, we have "
32999#~ "difficulty extracting a single uncontaminated sequence. It didn't make "
33000#~ "any sense until our recent discovery of the XVI infection in civilian "
33001#~ "people. I immediately suspected a correlation but wanted to wait until I "
33002#~ "could prove it, and since then I've spent most of my off hours studying "
33003#~ "the problem. Now I believe I've found the cause -- XVI itself.\n"
33004#~ "\n"
33005#~ "I've determined that all the aliens carry their own versions of this same "
33006#~ "micro-organic infection. There are differences to account for the "
33007#~ "different bodies and blood types -- some of these varieties don't appear "
33008#~ "to live in blood at all -- but it is unmistakably the same thing. We can "
33009#~ "only assume that the different strands of the infection were engineered "
33010#~ "to suit each species.\n"
33011#~ "\n"
33012#~ "Since all the alien species carry a unique strand of the infection, I've "

33015#~ "can be found. Humans have XVI-H, Tamans have XVI-T, and so forth.\n"
33016#~ "\n"
33017#~ "The organism's function is not readily apparent in these aliens since we "
33018#~ "have no uninfected control specimens against which we can measure the "
33019#~ "effect. However, given this information, we have to conclude that XVI is "
33020#~ "more than simply a bio-weapon against humanity. It may even be used in a "
33021#~ "similar way -- an enslavement device suppressing individual thought and "
33022#~ "linking the subject into the group mind, whether there is a group or not. "

34499#~ "The alien attack on Mumbai made our situation painfully clear. Their "
34500#~ "technology is far more advanced than ours. The complete inability of "
34501#~ "Commonwealth troops to make a dent in the Mumbai offensive revealed "
34502#~ "critical weaknesses in current military training and equipment. They lost "
34503#~ "three battalions just bringing the aliens to a standstill without "
34504#~ "inflicting significant casualties. PHALANX has to overcome these odds, "
34505#~ "and to do that we need the very best human technology has to offer.\n"
34506#~ "\n"
34507#~ "The Excalibur Program was created to find the most effective weapons on "
34508#~ "Earth by reviewing their manufacturing standards, durability, operational "
34509#~ "record, and their combat performance in the situations where we've "
34510#~ "managed to bring the aliens to battle.\n"
34511#~ "\n"
34512#~ "From our experiences in Mumbai and other stricken cities, we've concluded "
34513#~ "that the aliens seem to concentrate their efforts on population centres, "
34514#~ "especially dense urban areas. A majority of engagements have taken place "
34515#~ "at knife-fighting range. For the purposes of the Excalibur Program, we've "
34516#~ "chosen several high-performance weapons for our Close Range Combat "
34517#~ "package.\n"
34518#~ "\n"
34519#~ "Many great shotguns have come out of Italy over the past two centuries; "
34520#~ "the latest is the Rossi AAA, a semi-automatic combat shotgun developed "
34521#~ "for use by SWAT and anti-terrorist units. It features several ground-"
34522#~ "breaking technologies, but its most impressive feature is without a doubt "
34523#~ "the specially-developed 'Twist' barrel. The Twist is a new type of "
34524#~ "shotgun barrel that, with a sharp twist of the front handguard, can "
34525#~ "protrude or flatten the rifling inside the barrel. With this mechanism, "
34526#~ "the AAA can change its barrel from smoothbore to rifled and back in a "
34527#~ "tenth of a second. The barrel even adjusts its own diameter and choke to "
34528#~ "fit whatever type of shell is in the chamber. These two innovations allow "
34529#~ "the AAA to fire any kind of shotgun ammo at a moment's notice.\n"
34530#~ "\n"
34531#~ "The most commonly used military and SWAT ammunition is the 12mm "
34532#~ "centerfire flechette shell. Each shell contains 8 tiny flechettes -- "
34533#~ "solid steel needles with fins to stabilise their flight. This ammunition "
34534#~ "has superior accuracy compared to buckshot and performs excellently "
34535#~ "against armour. The flechettes are also prone to tumble after "
34536#~ "penetration, resulting in impressive wounding capability for such a small "
34537#~ "projectile. Their drawbacks are vulnerability to wind conditions and "
34538#~ "other deflecting factors. Other types of ammo are available to deal with "
34539#~ "these situations, however -- and the AAA can fire them all.\n"
34540#~ "\n"
34541#~ "In conclusion, the Rossi AAA is a highly versatile shotgun that is among "
34542#~ "the most effective close-range weapons available. It has a longer range "
34543#~ "than the CRC-FL Flamethrower and causes more damage than the CRC-8 SMG, "
34544#~ "providing a good compromise between speed, range and stopping power.\n"

34740#~ "'Ortnok', is its size. Its appearence is like a brutish, hulking "
34741#~ "caricature of a man, something that can be quite disturbing to our agents "

34744#~ "\n"
34745#~ "In proportion to its body weight, the Ortnok has more muscle than a "
34746#~ "professional body builder. At first we concluded this was solely the "
34747#~ "product of an extreme-heavy-gravity homeworld, but subsequent hormone and "
34748#~ "toxicology work on our specimen have revealed something interesting. The "
34749#~ "subject seems to have been raised from birth on a heavy diet of genetic "
34750#~ "tampering and anabolic steroids. This, combined with the incredible "
34751#~ "density of the muscle tissue, makes the Ortnok physically stronger than "
34752#~ "any biological entity on Earth.\n"
34753#~ "\n"
34754#~ "During our first incisions, we were surprised to find the Ortnok to be "
34755#~ "without blood. It has lungs, viscera and something akin to digestive "
34756#~ "organs, but no liver or heart that we can identify. Instead of veins "
34757#~ "there is a very well-developed system of nerve tubes, filled with a kind "
34758#~ "of electrically conductive gel, that seems to power and control the "
34759#~ "muscles by direct electrical stimulation. The needed electricity is "
34760#~ "generated through digestion of organic matter and stored in a set of "
34761#~ "large eel-like organs underneath the lungs. The nervous system itself is "
34762#~ "nourished by the leftover products of the digestion process by way of "
34763#~ "veins filled with pressurised air. The whole chest cavity has been richly "
34764#~ "furnished with armour plating inserted just underneath the leathery green "
34765#~ "skin.\n"
34766#~ "\n"
34767#~ "The eyes are covered with surgically-implanted lenses that improve the "
34768#~ "Ortnok's already excellent vision, stretching it into the infrared "
34769#~ "spectrum. The ears consist of a series of small cavities, three on either "
34770#~ "side of the head, which are surprisingly large and well-developed. Given "
34771#~ "the evidence we must conclude that Ortnoks have acute hearing, though the "
34772#~ "nose and olfactory organs are quite small, atrophied almost to the point "
34773#~ "of being vestigial.\n"
34774#~ "\n"
34775#~ "From the autopsy and our analysis of battlefield footage, we can conclude "
34776#~ "the following:\n"
34777#~ "\n"
34778#~ "- The brain is fairly small for a hominid of such size, no larger than "
34779#~ "that of Homo erectus, but it is perhaps sufficient for the role of foot "
34780#~ "soldier. Ortnoks certainly don't display any tactical sluggishness on the "
34781#~ "battlefield.\n"
34782#~ "\n"
34783#~ "- The three-fingered hand is able to carry and use a wide variety of "
34784#~ "equipment. However, Ortnoks are most often equipped with heavy weapons to "
34785#~ "match their size.\n"
34786#~ "\n"
34787#~ "- Ortnoks are strong, tough and dangerous. Their internal armour enhances "
34788#~ "their natural endurance even further, making them difficult to take down. "
34789#~ "Armour-piercing rounds or incendiary weapons are recommended. Lasers, "
34790#~ "explosives and cutting weapons will not be very effective due to the "
34791#~ "extensive armouring.\n"
34792#~ "\n"
34793#~ "- All Ortnok specimens we've seen so far were not equipped with "
34794#~ "reproductive organs. From surgical scarring around the groin area, we "
34795#~ "believe they may have been neutered for some reason.\n"
34796#~ "\n"
34797#~ "In combat, specimens seem to be used most often in the role of heavy "
34798#~ "infantry and fire support. They are not particularly accurate with their "
34799#~ "somewhat cumbersome weapons, but when working in numbers they usually lay "
34800#~ "down enough fire to suppress and then annihilate a PHALANX squad. Ortnoks "
34801#~ "do not seem to serve in many specialist capacities; they are never used "
34802#~ "as technicians according to our camera observations, and usually busy "
34803#~ "themselves handling perimeter security for the Tamans when not engaged in "
34804#~ "combat.\n"
34805#~ "\n"
34806#~ "There is a complex set of implants in the subject's throat that will "
34807#~ "require further research to be fully understood. I will send you a more "
34808#~ "detailed analysis along with a research proposal.\n"
34809#~ "\n"
34810#~ "We have no idea quite where the name 'Ortnok' came from. The troops don't "
34811#~ "seem to know, and neither do we. Still, it's as good a name as any, and "
34812#~ "it seems to have stuck.\n"

35148#~ "Yamamura's approach has gradually begun to bear fruit. The aliens have "

35150#~ "language, and they appear to comprehend a wide range of questions and "

35153#~ "trying to extract useful information from the hive mind. This hasn't been "

35156#~ "casualty rate has been high.\n"
35157#~ "\n"
35158#~ "However, what we have is significant. For instance, the hive mind seems "

35160#~ "\", or even \"You\" and \"Them\". It only accepts these words as "
35161#~ "numerical differentiations -- one specimen or several, one human or a "

35164#~ "single enclosed entity; it merely is. This, along with various other "
35165#~ "answers we've pieced together from our continued sessions, leads us to "
35166#~ "believe that all aliens do indeed share one single mind. And I mean all "
35167#~ "of them, Commander. It's not simply a means of increasing team efficiency "
35168#~ "or encouraging esprit de corps; it's an indispensible component of alien "

35172#~ "different substances required to keep the various species alive.\n"
35173#~ "\n"
35174#~ "Also, the hive mind has expressed puzzlement at our attempts to "
35175#~ "communicate with individual aliens, let alone through something as crude "
35176#~ "as sign language. A human-understandable analogy might be trying to have "
35177#~ "a deep conversation with someone's toenail, or talking to a single cell "
35178#~ "in your own body. Of course, that raises the question of where the alien "

35181#~ "Certainly the handful of aliens currently in our Containment unit are not "

35184#~ "mission to Earth, only to rejoin it when they return later. Whether this "
