Astral Dynamics assists the Civilian Defense Force (CDF) in the Stanton System when a State of Emergency is declared. With the UEE Navy still dealing with the Vanduul, and a aggressively hostile pirate enclave know as XenoThreat conducting raids form the Pyro System, a CDF Call is sent out for assistance. Astral Dynamics, with specialties in Hauling & Rescue services assist with the re-capture of lost CDF supply shipments, additionally with our expertise in Recovery & Repair, as well as previous contracts with the UEE Navy, we were tasked with recovering a Idris-M class frigate stolen by XenoThreat.

After a fierce firefight resupplying the CDF & subsequent attempts to disable the XenoThreat commanded Idris, Astral Dynamics were inevitable successful in disabling, boarding, recapturing and repairing the liberated Idris frigate.

The following year, in 2954 XenoThreat had reformed. Access to the Pyro System had been restricted by the UEE Navy in an attempt to stop the resupply of their enclave, but a smugglers will is a smugglers way, so instead what the UEE prevented was law abiding bounty hunters from tracking down & eliminating remaining XenoThreat members.

Shortly after the Invictus Launch Week celebrations in Stanton, on 14/06/2954, XenoThreat again launched an attack. As was expected, Astral Dynamics and other Entities operating in Stanton had remained on high alert since the previous incursion, and were ready. Astral Dynamics swiftly disabled, recaptured, repaired and then crewed the recovered Idris Frigate, just daring the XenoThreat enclave to try again.

The Idris was returned once again to the UEE Navy, when a few months later the Astral Dynamics Board received a comm from the UEE Navy, containing the verified purchase rights to an Idris-M Frigate. As such, an investment was made to secure business in and around the Stanton System. An Aegis Idris-M Frigate, Drake Kraken Light Carrier & Support Ships were purchased with preparations made to improved delivery times by utilising Low-Security systems, with High-Security fleets, for a premium.
