Clay "Dominated" by Violet! (we think he liked it)

The morning quiet was shattered around Neeson's Claim in Zone 7 yesterday as a violence erupted between the Golden Sirens, and the Sons of Anarchy. Both gangs have recently relocated to Zone 7 following the Warp plague depopulating the Zone.

Clay intended to push into the Sirens Turf

Shots were fired from across the Compactor and turbines supplying the region with air recyc. The Sons were keen to show why they were feared on the Farport Highways and Babydoll was their first victim. Knocking her into the Compactor, Jax crushed poor Babydoll in the compacter, which Honest Hans reports caused “severe lacerations”, which is a shame really, who doesn't love gore and carnage in the morning?

Of course the Sirens didn't know Babydoll was just cut up, and they went on a rampage. The Sons only had some of their numbers, not all of them. Eva started off the revenge of Babydoll by crushing the pretty boy Jax in the same compactor, which we unfortunately don't have the vid capture of.

The gun fire blazed back and forth taking down 6 of the Sons. The Sons had had enough with some of them running just as they turned up to reinforce Clay. The Sons while trying to run took down Ava and Rwby which panicked many of the Sirens, however once the Sons had run off their leader Violet restored order.

As the Sirens picked through Neeson's Claim, they found Clay, face down bleeding from the guts. One of our folks friendly with the Sirens managed to get a statement “This piece of shit's boy broken poor Babydolls face, he's Guild money is gonna pay for a new one, but not before he learns why Violets called 'The Dominator'”.

Clay finds out why the Sirens call Violet "The Dominator"

CAWDER CRUSADE BURNS WICHES!

Theolphilos and his "Penitent Ones" from the normally troublesome House Cawdor have done a GREAT SERVICE to the loyal citizens of Dirtside!
Launching their "Crusade" into Zone 7 the Penitent Ones attempted to rob the DESPICABLE so-called "Natives" warband of the "Seven Skinners". The Seven Skinners were reportedly sneaking up on the Slag Heap Slag Furnace, bringing broken weapon a refuse to rework into crude weapons, when the Penitent Ones intercepted. The COWARDLY Skinners barricaded themselves into a collapsed dome as Theolphilos and his warriors closed in. All was going to plan, say local reports, until the insane "Chief" Nashoba "Pyrr Cat" SHOT HIS OWN WARRIOR - a despicable act of treachery of the sort that the "Natives" are known for. Of course, while devout, House Cawdor are unfortunately known to be stupid and so were unprepared for the destruction of the doorway and were forced to clamber across. The dilapidated ruins at ground level suited the Skinners fine as they launched a counter-ambush on the Penitent ones, with Taheton "Spirit Talker" leading a counter-attack that saw Nicephorus cut down by VILE MAGICKS! The unwashed, ignorant Cawdor are also known to be cowardly and easily panicked and were sent scurrying from this abomination. To the credit of Theolphilos, he understood his duty to the Emperor and, ignoring their initial plan to rob the so called "Natives",  instead gave themselves to HOLY SLAUGHTER, purging the witches from the Renegades' ranks. Both the vile witches in Taheton and Ahote Dead Rat were purged by Theolphilos. While this was happening, the renegades on the other side of the fallen walkways continued to snipe the Penitent Ones. "Badskin" Bob, a notorious native guide turned renegade, shot one of the Turkos brothers off a gantry, sending him plummeting to the ground where his fuel tank erupted leaving him with severe burns and broken bones that would have killed him if not for Honest Hans' surgery. 

The Penitent Ones were not competent enough to drive off the Seven Skinners, but they did cripple the warband. The remaining Seven Skinners settled in Slag Heap, claiming it for themselves.  Of course with their casualties, any true band of warriors and not a band of unwashed rabble will have no trouble finishing them off.

(RESULT: The Seven Skinners take The Slag Heap gaining 3 Reputation, 1 XP per surviving warrior, 50 Credits and 1 new Brave. The Penitent Ones lose Slag Heap, gain 1 Reputation, 1 XP, 30 Credits and 1 new Juvie from their Hideout).

New settlers increase risk of Pox outbreak.

Unsettling new has reached the Federacy reporters of the local activities in Dirtside city.
Following a recent outbreak of the Warp Plague in the Slums, Corporate forces under the behest of the Imperium quarantined the area and slaughtered all of the inhabitants. This is foolish in the extreme, for within the Federal systems, while quarantine would be rightly be enacted, the needless slaughter of it's citizens would never happen. This is simply further example of the Imperium's callous disregard for human life or safety, not least to say such actions are counter-productive to preventing further Warp Plague outbreak.

Now, Federacy News can report that the Imperium has allowed the resettling of Dirtsides "Slums", the poorest and most desperate risking infection in the hope of a better life. Local reporters have further found that gangs have accompanied the settlers, extracting extortion credits from the locals. We can exclusively report the identities of these gangers. However for more detailed analysis of these belligerent's you can learn more on tomorrows data burst

The Penitent Ones have sworn themselves on a maniacal penitent crusade into the slums of Zone 7 and have take over the "Throughpass", treacherous wastes that are largely uninhabited. Word has it that they've visited "Honest" Hans, a suspected Magos runaway. Lastly at least 3 Cawdor settlers have been seen working the Slag Heap at the behest of the Penitent ones.

One group of fanatics believing a false faith was not enough, the High Church of Saint Hennin, have sworn a crusade to reconsecrate Zone 7 to the little known "Saint" with blood and fire. Sledge and Lyon is where they are rumoured to have setup their base. They have sent workers to "assist" Mom and Pop Potts and Soylent Ltd. Federacy News gained a quote from an Algae farm worker "We hate the Cawdor, always acting high and mighty, they're treat like shit like the rest of it but pretend it smells like Amasec, pricks". Lastly a number of their crusaders have set up residence in the Dead Steel Narco Den - surprising considering their notorious puritanical natures, simply shows that the Cawdor are hypocrites as well as fanatics.

A gang calling themselves The Protomen have taken over the Dome fighting pit, Crashers Cards and Craps, and Orsons industrial Ore. Apparently the Proto men are fringe elements of House Van Saar, determined to find a cure to their inherited illnesses, as well as produce innovation of combat tech. Hopefully the hide bound Imperial Adeptus Mechanicus do not find out about this "Tech Heresy".

A group of "Natives", elusive individuals who do not recognise the authority of the Imperium over "their" world have declare vengeance upon those that have killed their families. The Seven Skinners have attacked and already taken Maggers Rest, using the Crawlspace Needleways to launch a surprise attack on the Toll Road, slaughtering any who would not pay tribute, without Orlock heavies to stop them, the Seven Skinners appear intent on stopping Imperial road tolls into Dirtside.

Speaking of Orlock, the Metal Heads a ferocious road gang have who reports say have come from a long journey guarding road convoys, have setup in the Zone 7 Tenements, Road side Rest becoming their regular drinking hole, collecting protection money from the residents. Rumour has it they gained access to this route, avoiding the Seven Skinners by way of the disused Sewer works.

With these new warriors in Zone 7, what hope is there for a better life for it's inhabitants? The cycle of violence the Imperium is all too happy to perpetrate and allow to continue well endless be the steel boot upon the neck of it's slave-citizens.

If the Imperium Invested in Dirtside it would be a Paradise like Ciprex IV

RECENT ADMINISTRATUM REVIEW CREATES JOY IN GOVERNORS OFFICE

The Daily Dirtside can report the WONDERFUL news that following a review by the Administratum the Imperial Tithe of Dirtside has been reviewed.
Following a speedy investigation by the Administratum beginning in 110699.M39, the Administratum has determined that the population of Farport Major is in fact 12 BILLION, significantly higher than previous estimate of 300 Million. Furthermore, it has been discovered that our beloved city of Dirtside, rather than only have a paltry 50 million inhabitants, in fact has a healthy 2.5 billion citizens living within the plates. But if you are worried it has suddenly become cramped in our fair city FEAR NOT! For Dirtside was in fact 20,000km2 rather than the previously thought 1500 km2. Clearly our intrepid builders and architects have been busy (as well as the citizens at our beloved brothels).

As a result, the Administratum has upgraded Farports Tithe Grade from the frankly paltry Solutio Particular to a far more respectable Decuma Extrema, so the enemies of the God-Emperor are soon to see the brave Regiments of Farport in a theatre of war soon. Wish them well!

The intrepid reporters of the Daily Dirtside attempted to reach our Glorious Imperial Governor Bryant Percival for comment who due to immense duties was unavailable for comment. However we can happily report from sources close to the Imperial Governor that he was "Screaming, shouting and throwing things around [for joy]" at the wondrous opportunity for the Farport to show it's loyalty to the Imperium.

Governor Percival

NO Warp Plague in the Slums!

The Daily Dirtside is the most renowned and TRUSTWORTHY source for news on all Dirtside. 
There have been rumours of Warp Plague has caused a resurgence in the Slums of Zone 7, with some reporting a number of citizens going missing. That is absolutely known to be not the case! While there was a minor incident a couple of weeks ago, this was tiny and minuscule, quickly contained by the hard work of Kotu and Orlock security forces.

The Zone is now completely safe to be resettled boosted with new workers and families who will be a valuable addition to local industry.

Not a problem

WHY did Kragg shoot Krunk?

Welcome to Truth Famaris! The only free and clear News stream on all Dirtside, no Governor dung stain Percival censoring our words or Xenos Funokking Feds saying how their starch is always better! No this is the true news for true people, who know their minds and will not have them controlled by anyone!
Everyone knows Escher are having a hard time right now, some thing it's because of that Valen Tryst from Veritas trying to hurt their operation! Well we just got word that there was another hit on Escher in Zone 6! This time it was Lith Carver and her "Stiletto Queens" who were their target. Word is Veritas put a flat bounty on any Escher gangers, and the "Chest Krumpers" of Krumper Cannonhead wanted to collect!
Story goes that when crossing their turf, Lith and her girls ran into Krumper and his meatheads. Stumbling into one another Lith's girls shot first, but "Slam Chest Thunk Gut" blasted with a Grenade Launcher, sending most the girls flying and bleeding. Most the remaining girls were sent running for cover, with "Never Runs" Liz refusing to come out from under her hiding spot. Scattered and bleeding it looked like Krumper was collecting on 10 Escher scalps, Till little Keren rushed forward and jabbed Krumper in the crotch with her Stiletto Dagger, the toxins doing the work on him. Then a firefight ensured.

But what about Kragg and Krunk? 
Krunk is (or was) Krumpers second in command. Krunks corpse was found after the fight by Venator mercs with 3 Stab cannon blasts in his back. Kragg disappeared and showed up in Zone 7, the maligned Zone with the poxwalker problem (why in the name Creed's name would you go there?!) and at Roadside Rest was boasting how he got a fistful of creds to off Krunk. No one knows why, or who put him up to it, but it was certainly to the Eschers gain who made off free and clear.
