The Sisters Deliverance and Transporter, half an hour before their violent destruction
3 freighters were to make planetfall on the devastared Reschard V today, to rescue the surviving inhabitants. The first freighter never made it outside the docking bay, as an explosion took it out of commision. The cause of the explosion was unknown.
And escort fleet managed to safely transport the remaining two freighters through 0.0 space to Reschard V. Upon arriving, an explosion tore the Deliverance apart, the shockwave crippling the Transporter, which was just entering warp. Neither ship survived. There were no survivors.
Sabotage is the only explanation. The Deliverance had been having major navigation failures prior to the detonation. It seems the people of Reschard V are never to leave. Mordus Legion have claimed to inquire about a second rescue attempt, but this may be a foolish waste of yet more lives. Time will tell.
Someone doesn't want something or someone from leaving Reschard V. Who or what is unknown, but this has gone from beyond the realm of coincidence. Bombing a planet is one thing, but someone is determined that something never leaves that planet.

I left the freighters mere moments before the disaster, I could see no indication of anything wrong. By the time I returned nothing was left. What an appalling tragedy. I don't know what else to say, I am still in shock.

I concur. Sabotage, most likely caused by the same party that caused the damage in the first place.
Are you implying anything beyond that? I sense that you wish to point a finger at someone. Without any sarcasm, I ask you to speak plainly.

As far as I am aware Beringe, there was nothing and nobody of importance on Reschard V. It was a common farming world.
Why someone should want to go to such extreme lengths to make sure nothing enters or exits Reschard V is beyond me.
I'm inclined to believe it was Jovian. The Jove certainly have the technology to destroy a planet in the time span that it was apparently accomplished in, because even one of our Titans would have a hard job of so thoroughly and completely destroying a planet's surface in so little time. They also have the capabilities to sabotage a freighter without anyone knowing about it. And just perhaps, they see something of importance on Reschard V that needs to be covered up that nobody else sees...
But this is just a hunch, nothing more. Conspiracy theories aside, I have no realistic idea who would do this.

the ships seemed to be running fine when they entered all the stargates they used, no odd energy readings based on our records. but our ship scanners arent terribly accurate as scanning ships is no business of the stargate crews.

I was jumping ahead of the freighters and, on a jump prior to Reschard, a stargate misjumped me about a million km off target. At the time I took it as a fluke, stargate malfunction. I warped the rest of the way to my target and went on.
It could well have been a random miscalibration, but given what happened, I have to wonder. I'd recommend examining not only the jump logs of the gate leading into Reschard, but all those the convoy moved through along the way.

I too am devistated by the loss of both ships. The rescue effort was running smoothly, the convoy making it to Reschard. Of course thats where it went wrong for the two freighters.
I myself had two cases of jump anomalies, both cases allowing my ship to re-enter space over 100km from the beacons.
My ship is in dock now with my tech crew looking over the instrumentation to see if the fault is with my ship or if the problem lies elsewhere.
As for the survivors of Reschard V I can only hope a second rescue attempt is launched with better results.

As tragic as this is. I can't help but agree with Nero here. I suspect Jovians or UDI. We must find out who is doing this!
*slams fist on table*
We must purge these murderers from our lands, and mount there bodies on our ships. This is deplorable, I demand Federation ships to secure relief convoys to the surface! This is another example of Federal incompetence. Why won't they even help the Intaki on this worl?
*sighs*
We need to get those people out of there as soon as possible. We should indeed donate all our time and energy into anything SOE asks of us or the Navy for Reshard. I want this to come to an end soon. Sadly I think whomever is at work here wont allow that.

Just to play devils advocate.
One planet get's a load of virals on it and no trace of the one who did it.
Another planet get's blown away and yet again no sign as where the ship that did it went or anyone sure of the shiptype that did it.
Then a resque attempt for the second planet get's sabotaged.
Now for the advocates part.
1: The one(s) responsible for the virals on planet A worked in secrecy on planet B and to cover tracks as fast as possible blow up planet B and prevent resque attempts just to make sure all evidence get's destroyed.
2: An elaborate sceme to force several races into a war in which a certain party gains a lot of profit or otherwise advantage.
3:Planet B is just a sort of bait so people get distracted a bt from planet A so the ones who did the viral release on planet A can go on with their current plan.
4:Both instances are seperate issues ( most unlikely though in my deviate mind)

Well the point is, "yes" the Jovians could be responsable, but again they may not be. Just as the filthy serps may be responable.
I also beleive it could be the work of some secretive organization unseen to the public eye.
Do I personally think that the Caldari are responsable? No I don't. Do I think they would do it? Most likley not.
We have to ask ourselves how do we catch them the next time?
Im more in a state of anger now, so I will regress from further comments about this tragedy untill I can calm myself down.
Fly safe and a reward to anyone who can reveal any information on this tragedy.

we are reviewing jump logs but it will take time. the alignment of the gates in that whole constellation keeps drifting. this event in Reschard is truely more then meets the eye as we have seen nothing man made to date that could even phase a stargate.
more news is coming in as we finally have restored primary data links to our stargates in Reschard. sad news is the Energy pulse that knocked these gates offline also overloaded the main core on all three(maybe the being on backup power is causing odd jumps)but across the three gates we lost 600 of our family.

As you said, 'It was a common farming world'. Perhaps it wasn't so common, but I still believe it was just the unlucky planet to draw they "make an example to the Intaki" straw of the Federation grip.
Perhapsfor rescue they shoudl send smaller industrials? Those don't need nearly as much crew as a frieghter, and while rescue would be slower, there would be less chance of sabotage, shouldd someone actually be trying to stop someone from getting answers.

Perhaps it truly is just a farming world- meant to allow people to begin finger-pointing and arouse suspicions among the races or certain factions. There is one aspect I do believe in; someone or something doesn't want anyone off that planet and perhaps not even near it.
One thing we do know for exact certainty, whoever has conducted these series of events know what they're doing, have the connections to acquire weaponry and ships and not to mention the connections needed to safely sabotage and disable the 3 freighters without anyone knowing.

Now I'm sorry, but I simply can't let anything so preposterous and inflammatory go unchallenged.
I'm not about to defend the laxity of the Federation response to the disaster. Along with the ongoing neglect of the general security situation in Placid, it's shameful, and a stain on the ideals the Federation is meant to uphold.
But the idea that the Federation is secretly conducting genocide attacks on its own planets and then sabotaging relief efforts is simply outrageous and you do us all a disservice by spreading this kind of nonsense. The Federation gains nothing by these attacks - indeed its interests are being badly damaged - and these are hardly the methods of a sovereign state within its own borders.
I understand that passions are running high right now, but this is no time to allow our enemies to use fear and paranoia to divide us against ourselves. We must come together to protect our worlds, our people and the future we must all share.

Perhaps it would be more wise for SOE to make a less.... public transportation of relief items through safer space, even if it does take slightly longer.

I agree with that 100%
SOE needs to seek stronger military escort for there shipments as well. I do not comprehend why the Federation dosn't offer military escort or intervene in this at all. Im not sure about the route SOE takes to get there supplies to Reshard, or whether or not they pass through 0.0 space to get there. Ive been tied up Planetside and can't get back into space for a while ((computer troubles)).
I would like to see the SOE and possibly Mordus legion work together on this one. Mordus could provide security along with pod pilots and SOE can get there freighters and Industrial ships to the surface.
Anyways, whats more important here is getting whose left (if any are left) off that rock and to another planet or station and start questioning them.
That said, I don't think whoever is at work here will allow that to happen without a fight. Be vigilant and when I return to space I will be involved with this untill it is resolved fully and justice is brought to those responsable. |

Tell me, what did the Federation have to gain by bombing Caldari Prime? The chance of ending the Caldari's attempt for freedom.
What do they get from making an example of an entire Intaki world? The chance of ending the Intaki movement for separation.
It's not like the Federation isn't above attacking a planet, and while they might not be responsible, the list of Navies with such a thermal arsenal to scorch the world is rather... short.
If SOE((everytime I read that I think of Sony )) was attempting to land, does that mean they could actually see the sruface now? If so, perhaps instead of making their relief efforts known to the aggressor, they might be able to send some ships fitted with the electronics needed to get a good close-up view of the planet's surface from space? That way they'll know where to land their ships and possibly how many ships they'll need. Again, I suggest many smaller ships, rather than a few large, easier to sneak on-board, ships.

Now, I've been sitting back and watching this whole little drama play out with just a bit of interest. I tend to agree with one gentleman's response though. It's an odd coincedence that two planets are virtually eliminated within a week of each other with massive death and casualties and nothing is really known about either.
Now, I don't really care about the fact that there was loss of Amarrian life. I hate the bastards. Still, both these planets were hit. How far behind can a Minmatar planet be?
Which brings me to my point. I may have no love for any of the involved parties but should you need my assistance in an investigative capacity, give me a yell. I have contacts that most of you would never turn to or have access. I don't want to see a Minmatar planet suffer the same fate. That alone would drive me to help both victims of these disasters.

For this interested who could not be present, here is a report about as objective as I can make it, since being involved with the relief effort makes me somewhat subjective - and very angry.
The day after the attack Suuji and me visited the planet, trying to find out more. Here is a picture of the planet after the attack, from the lit side. We only confirmed that planetfall was impossible, could do nothing, and eventually returned.
Yesterday I learned about a convoy assembling in Torrinos, grabbed an AF and headed over there. About 80 independent pod pilots met up with a group of Mordu Command Ships who would fly close escort for the two freighters - one of the scheduled three had been disabled in dock by a mysterious explosion.
The convoy left after 2100 EVE and headed through low security space. In the beginning, we encountered some resistance - since I stayed with the freighters I cannot say who started firing, and the situation was quite chaotic. A few ships were destroyed and some pilots haunted the convoy, sniping at us every now and then.
After the Mordu pilots began calling targets the initial chaos died down, and despite reports of ship buildups and upcoming camps the voyage became quiet and safer.
Upon entering FREGE space the convoy was met by a big fleet from that alliance who proceeded to fly ahead of the freighters to secure the space. Thus protected, the freighters made it safely to the gate leading into the Reschard system, although navigation system malfunctions began to affect the fleet.
Entering the Reschard system caused me to loose orientation as well and I lost sight of the freighters. Since I was informed that the freighters had moved to the planet I headed there and joined the fleet orbiting the planet, but as you can see the freighters had not arrived.
Seconds after I took that picture, the commander of the Mordu forces reported a power surge on one of the freighters, and sent a distress call reporting both freighters as lost, a sad turn of events I could only confirm with a rapid scan of the system.
I mourn the losses of the Sisters of Eve, their crew, and most of all the innocent Intaki on Reschaud V, who now have to endure the terrible situation on the planet even longer.
To me it is clear that this is no "weapons test", "isolated incident" or "accident" any more. Someone is actively working to kill millions of innocents, even to the extent of attacking a relief convoy. Who is depraved enough to go that low, and what can we do to find those responsible and bring them to justice?
((Again, a big "Thank you" to the event team - I enjoyed that trip much. Someone needs to pod-kill the Lag though.))

UFF statement on the accident on Reschard V:
We morn for the people of Reschard that died in the accident, our thoughts are with the families mourning for their lost ones. Our Brothers and Sisters on Reschard V have suffered enough under the Federations wrong doing.
Sources have told us that the Federation is working on new weapons in the Placid region. One of there most resent Triumphs consisted of a capital ship being build and tested in the Serthoulde constellation. It seems that again the Federation made an error by implementing technology that wasnÆt ready for testing yet. As with the roque drone problem, the Federation is trying to cover up the accident by claiming it was sabotage from a different faction. According to our sources this is what actually happened.
On the day of the accident a Carrier type command ship dropped out of warp after testing its jump drives in the Placid region. The crew abandoned the space ship, but before leaving the captain plotted an approach course towards Reschard V. Open entering the atmosphere of the planet the ship started to disintegrate. What happened to the planet is already known. This is confirmed by CONCORD officials.
ôA preliminary CONCORD report mentions system-wide scanners picking up the signature of a Capital-class sized vessel in low orbit over Reschard V in the minutes prior to the explosion; electromagnetic radiation saturated all readings afterwards.ö
Our source found the ship log of this space ship, and reported this to a Mordus commander. Unfortunate the ship log never reached outside the Reschard Sollar system, it was blown up by the arriving Federation Fleet.
Some factions now try to blame the Caldari state for this ôTerroristö act, because of a caldari navy fleet appearing near the boarders of the Placid region. These people fail to recognise that these are the Mordus fleet that helped out the people of Raschard V evacuate the planet.
ôWitnesses report a mobilization of Caldari Navy vessels along the borders between Placid and The Citadel. No CalNav official communication has either confirmed or denied this fact.ô
Again the Federation is blaming other factions for its own wrong doings. The Federation sacrificed millions of its citizens just to see what the effects are of a command ship entering a planets atmosphere. By blaming the Caldari State for these actions they try to discredit its claims of the Return of Caldari Prime. Nothing goes far enough for the Federation to become supreme ruler of the Eve-universe.
It is time to make a stand against the Gallente Federation.

It was these statements I was questioning, not the news posted on GalNet. You claim that these are facts and attempt to back it with statements from CONCORD which say nothing of the sort.
If you do indeed have information you need to bring your source forward, not post opinions and speculation as fact.

How many people fell victem to the navigation problems? Also, did the obelisks blow up instantaneously or was there a dog fight of sorts, so far this is somewhat cloudy. Also, there were apparently readings of sensors going out after the capital ship was found in orbit, right before the explosion. What capital ship causes electromagnetic radiation with its weaponry or with it exploding, though a capital ship though large, I doubt would cause a planet wide explosion just from its own detonation?

I wonder how much the loss of this "minor farming planet" will affect Intaki space? Is this going to have significant impact on the Intaki ability to produce their own food supplies?
If the Intaki have to rely on foreign food transportation, that will create yet another binding that might eliminate a desire for independence. This is assuming of course that foreign food shipments are controlled at some point, as in a blockade, for whatever reason.
If a food shortage occurs, I pledge to make deliveries of food on a regular basis at my own cost the Reschard system.
