Directive from Zion- to all Captains of the fleet
file attached
The provided file contains details on former Captain Jericho of the Bounty
All Captains are advised that Jericho no longer has his rank or position and is considered a security threat to Zion.
Any sightings of Jericho must be reported to Zion as soon as can be managed. All missions other than priority assignments can be suspended in orde rto move your ships to a safe place to transmit your news to Zion.
Do not attempt to approach or apprehend Captain Jericho.
Message ends.

To: Captain Dallas, Scheherazade
The above message is going out to all Captains in the fleet. No more information is being given to them at this time.
As you know, Bounty was destroyed with all hands several months ago. The construct currently inside the Matrix is NOT Captain Jericho. Yet he has all of Jericho's abilities, and apparently all of his memories. These memories include the security codes to Zion's mainframe.
Not only is the existance of a computer programme with our security protocols unacceptable, your previous experiences have demonstrated that 'Jericho' has no interest in the future of Zion. He is therefore considered a priority threat. The System is known to be searching for Jericho. Security protcols are being changed, but with the memories of the former head of Zion's Strategic Planning Council, if 'Jericho' is taken by the System or decides to divulge the information he has, the consequences will be devastating.
Your orders are clear. Jericho must be eliminated.
Your experiences with Jericho have revealed the existance of programming anomalies inside the Matrix system- programmes that appear to have no loyalty to the System. If Jericho is to be found, the nature of these anomalies must be investigated.
We expect to have specific mission details for you very shortly. Captain Marduk of the Persepolis will also be assigned to aid in this mission.
Crew selection will be down to the discretion of yourself and Marduk. Recruitment, followed by training, should commence as soon as possible. It is highly recommended that you slect crew members who have an aptitude for accepting and understanding new ideas, as well as combat capacity. Those with you on your previous mission who are still available will be given priority assignment to your ships.
Your service to Zion is appreciated, Captain

Yeah yeah. I'll do that.
...
Just to confirm... Morpheus knows nothing about all this, yeah? Seriously, it;s made my year if that is true...

Hmm... upgrades...
Coming later this year, the continuation of my Matrix game.
Along with, of course, a new storyline, there is a new system- more streamlined, more direct, more efficient, and with luck, more accessible.
Nonetheless, this is a game that has its roots in being a detailed combat game, as befitting the source material. Successful players will need to get to grip with the combat system...
... or alternatively engage in the Philisophical nature of the Matrix series. Carrying on previous tradition, the game will split- although with overlap- into two distinct Paths, Combat and Philosophy.
One way or another, it is a game that will require a certain amount of decent committment and attention.
More details when I have them. This game is intended to bridge an upcoming gap in Star Wars plots. There is much to be tested, but as before, an intense training programme will lead the way.
Feel free to ask questions- but I really have little to give...
