The Move to Olide

   About one month ago, Manda Express was stationed in Olide. Our operation was disturbed when renter corporations from the CFC moved into the area and forced us out. After a long diplomatic process and the help from the enemies of the CFC renter corps, we have forced the members of the Greater Western Co-Prosperity Sphere out of the Olide area and we are now moving back in.

   Now I know some of you may be reluctant to move, but it will be well worth it. It is a 0.7 system and there are 150 factory slots, 23 asteroid belts, and 10 research slots in the system itself. It is surrounded by low-sec areas so access to low-sec mining, will be available!

   I know some of you question the choice of a system with three low-sec systems adjacent, won't it be dangerous? I assure you that the Olide system itself is secure for our use, being surrounded by low-sec means that it is a very nice quiet place as people don't dare venture to it. The areas around low-sec are nice as well, Mannar has 2 ice belts and usually has only 1 or 2 neutral people in the system. The area you must worry about is Groothese. A corporation called the Horse-Killers set up gate camps in the area late night Central Standard Time, we are working with people to force them out of the area and will keep you updated on that. Rest assured, it is safe during the day to ship items in and out of Olide, and we will do what we can to replace anything lost in transit if it comes to it.

   If you are very uncomfortable with the move or need help, contact a councilman and we can discuss options. The station is Olide moon IV station IV center for advanced studies.

See you in Olide!
