HISTORICAL TRUTH ACT: SHIP REVEAL???
Posted: 2947.05.09, 15:24 SET
Word around the campfire is that the UEE is prepping another big release of information through the Historical Truth Act. Right now, no one’s confirming what will be included, but there’s a ton of speculation that a super-secret ship is going to be part of it.
Can anyone here confirm or deny what I’ve been hearing? I’m just dying to know what kind of awesome tech the Navy has been sitting on. With all these near mil-spec ships flying around thanks to Militia Mobilization Initiative, you’d expect the UEEN to have a few more surprises up their sleeves, right? Got to have some way to keep us rabble in check =)

I heard this too, TMB! I’m dying to know what beast the Navy’s been sitting on all these years. Fingers crossed for some Messer Murder Monstrosity.
Can’t wait to find out!

Wow! How cool is it that Imperator Costigan checks these forums. I mean, who else in the entire UEE has the authority to confirm an Aegis ship will be a part of the Historical Truth Act reveal without facing reprisals for revealing classified information?

Speculation is fine, I’m just sick of everyone coming in here trying to act like they know something. If you’re going to say it’s an Aegis, how about some proof?
( Also, it’s ‘whole point,’ not ‘hole point.’ S/NS. Total grammar fiend. )

Speaking of Costigan!
Don’t know if any of you watch Showdown, but they had him on and I think he mentioned the ship.

COSTIGAN: What I can say is that a number of long classified military projects, including the rumored Project Eclipse and Operation Deadbolt, will be retired and details released through the Historical Truth Act.
< /QUOTE >
Anyone know what these secret projects are? Is one of them the ship?

Actually, if the big reveal is Project Eclipse, I may know what it is …
I can’t say too much, but I work at a data center that does storage for some big projects doing archival clean up. There was some poorly shot classified naval footage that was labeled Eclipse that I did a scrub on recently.
Had this old Naval base out in the middle of nowhere on Hyperion. I looked it up and technically, it’s ‘decommissioned,’ and it definitely looks that way, but I think they have it classified that way so no one has a reason to stop by.
Anyways, the footage looks like handheld vid. There must have been a helluva dust storm when they shot it because even after cleanup the frame wasn’t steady at that distance. From what I could make out, the ship definitely didn’t match any ship I know about. The front tail of the vid said UEEN Bomber Command, so my guess is they caught someone filming their secret bomber and confiscated the footage.
Sorry I can’t show you the vid. I would, but I’m pretty sure I’d lose my job …

Yeah, what an awesome totally not made up story! /s
First Kimz and now you, BB2783. This forum has turned into bullshit.
If this vid really exists, I’ll give you my 2783 Tali. It’s fairly obvious that you don’t already have one. If you did, you wouldn’t have such a gauche handle as “BomberBoy2783.”

It’s on SF! You have no idea who you’re messing with. Just did a little digging on you, Nathan, and confirmed that you have a 2783 Tali registered to you. Now I’m set on proving you wrong.
You’re right about one thing, though. I don’t have a 2783 Tali. Just a 2550! Your ship is gonna look so good in my hangar soon.
One thing. If I show you this footage you got to promise that it stays between us. My ass would be toast if anyone back at work could trace it back to me.

Oh, look who learned how to hire an infoagent to dig up basic intel on someone? I can’t believe you’re actually putting effort into this. Sure I promise not to show it to anyone. Especially since it doesn’t exist. At this point, I’m fully expecting you to try and pass off some shitty vid with a model ship in it as the real deal.

Bet you thought I’d gone away, didn’t you?
Took a bit of elbow grease, but look what I managed to grab from the office!
Now that I’ve produced the vid, you’ve gotta produce the Tali. I’ve got a few associates that are familiar with the 2783s. Let me know when I should send them by. If you don’t schedule a time by tomorrow, then I’ll have them show up unannounced. The choice is yours.

Asshole! How could you release the vid!
Don’t think you won’t pay for this …

Whoops … I wonder what happened. Did that vid you steal suddenly appear all over spectrum?
That’s tough luck on your part. Didn’t your mom ever teach you not to trust strangers?
