Greetings Commanders.The ancient generation ship,, has been discovered drifting amidst the stars. Contact with the ship's living occupants has revealed that their ancestors chose to remain aboard their ship rather than colonise their original destination. The equipment originally intended for setting up a planetary settlement was cannibalised for materials but now... the Golconda's crew find themselves in need of outside assistance for the first time in a millennia.Efforts are underway to support the residents of The Golconda, but both the Federation and the Empire look upon this colossal relic with opportunistic eyes.

Construction will shortly start on an orbital outpost namedwhich will house the Golconda crew. We want to thank all participating Federal and Imperial commanders, whose efforts have created a galaxy-wide effort for these stranded souls.
