Rewards for the overall winning mega corporation:

This event is right up my ally, I am excited to play through it. I was trying to save up for a C2 Herc in time to for it to start, but I'll have to earn the last couple mil I need for it running resources for ArcCorp - and I hope they name the jump gate to Pyro "Area 69" when they win.

Same, I am also pretty psyched for this event. Go MicroTech

- "Oi, this company (ASD) is going too far with their research. Kill them all!"
- "Imperator Eddison has now relaxed scientific research as a means to try and further push the drive to really end this crisis across Stanton."
Yeah, makes sense. Please don't take this comment too seriously.
Non combat event which has a chance to stay non combat and UI change are much appreciated. Lets hope things work out properly throughout the whole thing.
