The Peacemaker-enforced ceasefire brought an end to the hostilities, but the Mercenary Guild’s moratorium on new contracts has given the other guilds time - and freedom - to redress long-standing grievances. It has also led to a mindset of “while the cat’s away, the mice will play”, and many are taking liberties they wouldn't have normally. On Earth, the Golden Horde continues to rebuild, because Sansar Enkh has a good idea of what’s coming.

Harmon Tomeral and his friends wanted nothing more than to go to space, and they have beaten the odds, time and again, to get there. They developed a mech and won the Top Fleet Marine competition. They brought back a battle cruiser from an unknown system and made it their own. They made allies who helped them achieve great victories, and they, ultimately, founded new colonies in what has become known as the Salvage System.

From the outside, The Lyon’s Den doesn’t look like much; there isn’t even a sign. But Mercs of all species know that if you head to Southwest Houston, near the Starport, there’s a particular run-down strip mall that looks like it’s been abandoned for years. The glass door second from the south end of the strip is plastered over on the inside with blue paper, and the faint golden outline of a rampant lion is the only clue.

Salvage System is a beacon of hope, and a number of other races continue looking toward it as an inspiration for how to live and govern themselves, and - in some cases - for assistance in defending themselves and throwing off oppressive regimes. But the galaxy is a big place, and many of the races in it aren’t friendly. Would these forces like to take over Salvage System and acquire its resources? Absolutely.

Shawn Strash, former CEO of 21 hospitals: "Coming out of Covid, Relocalizing Health, provides the hope and roadmap for how communities will recover better and stronger. It's more clear than ever that the hospital structure of the last few decades won't enable our communities to maximize their health and well-being." Katy Talento, former White House Health Policy Advisor: "Relocalizing Health exposes the secret superpower of health care: the best product also saves the most money. I spent most of my career in government, buying into the dreary, doomsday notion that the only way to save ...

Staff Sergeant Markus ‘Spartan’ Nicolos is one of the Intelligence Department’s best. A hacker who can beat any code, he’s in charge of communications intercepts for the Golden Horde’s Computer Operations section. Spartan used to be a frontline CASPer pilot - until he lost his entire squad in an ambush. He also lost his edge in the attack, and he swore he would never pilot a CASPer in combat again. Everything changed, though, when he came up with an idea for a new type of scout CASPer - one that would prevent what happened to him from ever happening again.

Two comedians, Alex Boardman and Chris Kehoe, go out and about and try a bit of birding. Or maybe, we should call it birdwatching? Or perhaps the right phrase is bird spotting? Who knows or indeed, cares? It's just meant to be a bit of fun really. Besides, if you are the kind of person to take comedians seriously then you're a bigger idiot than they are. Hopefully every episode will contain swearing, mainly because it annoys a certain kind of fuckwit. When will people realise that SWEARING IS BIG AND IT IS CLEVER? Much love, Boardman and Kehoe xxxx
