Marine units are being prepared to investigate further. “This potentially adds a new dimension to the war, by introducing active threats on planetary surfaces. I have read harrowing descriptions of entire squads being wiped out by missile bombardments from these craft.” Available data indicates that the Thargoid drones are capable of launching volleys of air-to-surface projectiles.
“We have obtained several reports from both enlisted and unauthorised ground teams. Could they be planning to colonise all worlds in the core systems?”įollowing a tactical briefing with senior Aegis staff, Rear Admiral Daniel Parry provided an update to the press: “It seems that the Thargoids now view these planets as their territory, and us as the intruders. ‘I’ve seen them patrol the abandoned settlements as if on guard duty,’ said one eyewitness, ‘and become extremely hostile when they detect any living humans.’” Their relatively small size suggests they are the equivalent of combat drones. “These troops have come under attack by ‘airborne vehicles of Thargoid design’, according to one account. But military personnel still risk their lives exploring settlements within those systems, to search for survivors or scavenge remaining materials.” “Scores of populated systems in the vicinity of the Maelstroms have been invaded by Thargoid fleets, causing horrific casualties and mass evacuations. Reports from planetary settlements within Thargoid-occupied systems have described alien drone vessels attacking on-foot personnel.įield correspondent Ernesto Rios summarised this development for Vox Galactica:
