• Brewer Corporation has confirmed the overwhelming success of its latest initiative to restock Trailblazer megaships, citing it as the largest single delivery effort in its history with 48,885 pilots transporting more than 1.2 billion tonnes of materials.

• 26,486 pilots defending the Trailblazer resupply routes turned in over 686 billion bounties.
