I am more concerned about the Sleepers well lack of explanation about them. One more story left and still nothing.
When we find the Sleepers how do we know they are Sleepers? I really hope itĘs not a case of 2000+ system are just added and the player just automatically knows the Sleepers are the same as the old Sleepers. There needs to be something in the story to explain how the first people to meet the new sleepers know they are sleepers. What is the link between the old and new?
Just why are the new Sleepers called Sleepers? How will the first pilots see them and know to call them Sleepers?

Isogen-5 dates back way before this chronicle series.
After reading the Eon chronicles where people get rid of their body's and live in machines with extra senses and the chronicle(s) about rogue drones I don't have a problem with this chronicle.

There is one problem. HasnĘt is always been implied the standard drone is just that just a drone. ItĘs only the hive minds/queens that are truly conscious. How can a transmission reprogrammed hive mind/queens.
I find it hard to believe the queens and large hive minds can be reprogrammed by a simple message. ThatĘs like sending an email to a computer or a phone call over Skype and saying that phone message reprogrammed your PC. ItĘs not going happen and its much less likely to happen to an advanced conscious drone that can programme its self. Why did the drone leader not just ignore the message? Why did it not just reprogram its self. Why has it got no defences against this? If itĘs so easy to program a drone by sending something as simple as a transmission message from any ship why havenĘt the drones been wiped out?
Surly the message should have been just that, a message. Messages shouldnt reprogram drones. Sending a message to a drone is not going rewrite there core code.

Did I miss or forget something? Are we sure it was the Jovian's that gave the code to the Blood Raiders.
I just find it hard it very hard to believe with all the drone mutations and changes over the years that any code could work on them anymore. If a code did work it should logically only work on some of them, as they now are all different due to many types of mutations.
It's not like you can fly off to one drone hive develop a virus to rewrite the core and use it on another hive. The hives are all meant to be different with different mutations.
I guess it is possible but it seems very unlikely. It's like creating a Virus; it won't work on all humans as humans are not all the same. More to the point if it's so easy to control or wipe out drones. Why have the people who did this not exploited it?

Pesets said " Also, it's not clear why Jovians chose to rely on Blood Raiders to deliver that Abaddon; it seems they could've just as well done it themselves."
What am I missing? How do you know its Jovian's? What makes you think the Jove are even involved? Although I do agree it's odd who ever did it would rely on untrustworthy people like the Blood raiders over sending one of their own ships in.

As far as we know SCOT is not a Jovian establishment anymore. ItĘs run by none Jove, itĘs full of none Jove and back when Jove was involved it was a very different organisation. That and SCOT was banned from Jove space.
SCOT was a Jovian establishment 300 years ago but it does not appear to be one anymore. Not only was SCOT banned from Jove space but it opened its door to none Jove, has none Jove leaders. As far as I recall every single chronicle and story with SCOT people has the SCOT people as none Jove. Its also not listed as Jove establishment/Corp under the Jove race.

Downtime story was good but as I feared the Sleepers just appeared out of nowhere and we automatically know who and what they are. No explanation of how we know the drones are sleepers. Know explanation of why pilots would meet these new ships and automatically go and call them sleepers. There should have been a story about a archaeologists in a wormhole finding some old relic/drone and linking it to the sleepers of old. After which eveyone starts calling the new drones sleeper drones. Or something along those lines. I hope its explained in tomorrows story.
As for the news if the planet was blown up the ship shouldn't have been able to warp to the planet then find there is no planet. Without the planet gravity well to lock onto the ship would never have made it into warp. Ships need gravity wells either real ones or ones produced by technology to know when to come out of warp. I suppose it could have been in warp then the planet got hit. Do our ships only need gravity wells to enter warp? So what does happen if the gravity well vanish in mid warp? Do the ships get stuck in warp, drop out of warp or just act as normal?
Those people saying don't warp to the planet are odd, why would they say that knowing that almost no one could warp to it?
