Frontier 17
From the completely off-the-record and unofficial notes of Staff-Sergeant Arius Numitor
Bastion Eos, 31th of July to 2nd of August 240
The new crop of colonists is a mixed bag, but it does include a fair number of Aquilans. Most of they get to work immediatly, which is good to see. We have much to do, including a rescue party.

Frontier 16
From the completely off-the-record and unofficial notes of Staff-Sergeant Arius Numitor
Bastion Eos, 17th to 19th of July 240
The Sphere is under attack. We know that that was going to happen at one point. Unfortunately, the Ekanesh seem unable to locate the source of the attack, and we lack a target. Troubling, so I recommend scaling up the ( Read more... ) -
Frontier 15 - Elections
From the completely off-the-record and unofficial notes of Staff-Sergeant Arius Numitor
Bastion Eos, 26th to 28th of June 240
A routine op, they call it. Normally something for a civilian, but Nazir and Pandac prefer me as I double as combat pilot and economics expert. And it is a routine pickup from the trading posts. They do ask me to hover right ( Read more... ) -
Frontier 14 - The Goatfarm
From the completely off-the-record and unofficial notes of Staff-Sergeant Arius Numitor
Bastion Eos, 12th to 14th of June 240A routine day so far. New colonists arrived and went into their briefing, the Aquila got together and discussed what lay ahead. The mission board was otherwise clean and there was nothing on fire. So far, so good ( Read more... ) -
Frontier 13 - A weekend off?
From the completely off-the-record and unofficial notes of Sergeant Staff-Sergeant Arius Numitor
Bastion Eos, 29th to 31st of May 240It has been an odd day already. The gate had spooled down in the afternoon, while messages from the ICC came in. Some kind of emergency, travel restrictions, and all that. Nothing major, more an annoyance. Luckily ( Read more... ) -
Frontier 12 - Dynamic Shift
From the completely off-the-record and unofficial notes of Sergeant Arius Numitor
Bastion Eos, 8th of May 240It is Friday night - new colonists will be arriving on Eos soon. Normally I would be near the gate with our welcoming folders, or prepping to give the orientation talk. However, that task now falls our diplomatic corps, who took it off my ( Read more... ) -
Frontier 11 - Forward Unto Dawn
From the completely off-the-record and unofficial notes of Sergeant Arius Numitor
Bastion Eos, 24th to 26th of April 240Damn satisfying. That is how I'd describe my last few weeks. Coordinating the off-world building crew and integrating them with our own local engineering corps has been an absolute delight. The upgrades are on track, on schedule ( Read more... ) -
2018, the flipside.
Normally I post my year in review somewhere near my birthday, but time got away from my in December. It is generally not the easiest, and this year we were combining Lies' winterdip with Rory who decided to go for learning to walk before years end. Suffice to say that my last few weeks were beautiful and utterly exhausting. Can't remember starting ( Read more... ) -
(Untitled)
From the completely off-the-record and unofficial notes of Sergeant Arius Numitor
Bastion Eos, 20th to 22nd of March 240The Combat Information Center is coming online, and we are starting to plan. I have to get Denna up to speed as my second-in-command. My relatively simple Chief Shuttle Operations job has been assimilated into the CiC as a far ( Read more... ) -
Goodbye, 2017.
2017, it barely feels like you started, for a very good reason. In spring the news came that we were expecting, and that pretty much structured my year. A lot changed and at the same time it feels perfectly natural. Like Rory slotted nicely into a well-prepared niche in our family. She may only be a month old, but it strangely feels far longer. Yay ( Read more... )
