Succession debate rages on. – news from EvE
Nov 6th
At the most recent sitting of the Privy council, Pomikide Haromi, steward of House Sarum, voiced his house’s express views on the recent succession debate.
House Sarum feels that the past open doors policy of ascension was patently ridiculous. We cannot and should not allow anyone but true Amarrians to decide the future of our glorious empire. It’s no wonder that the last two chosen Emperors were such weaklings?
It is time for Amarrians to stand for Amarr, stop kowtowing to these heathen Empires and reclaim our glorious past. It is time to choose a new Emperor!
When asked whether House Sarum would be naming its successor to Jamyl, the steward reminded all present that House Sarum’s business is just that, but you can be assured that all will happen as it should
Upon hearing the steward’s comments, Ariticio Kor-Azor, Heir of house Kor-Azor, took the opportunity to present his own views upon the subject:
Oh, please. It is obvious to even the dumbest heathen who the next Emperor should be. The blathering of the other houses only postpones my own inevitable ascension. As for the Chamberlain, I am amazed he has even survived this long.
Concerning the Championships, I move that we abolish representation More >
Heir speaks out on succession as debate continues – news from EvE
Nov 6th
Last month witnessed an unprecedented request from Amarrian capsuleers that they be informed as to the progress of the investigation into the assassination of Emperor Doriam. Despite serving as a severe breach of protocol, the request sparked fervent academic debate within the Empire regarding the next Succession championships and what form they will take.
While no outright dissent has been aired on the issue, it is no secret that the people of the Empire are growing impatient with the wait for a new Emperor. In an announcement late last week, Uriam Kador endorsed the ongoing debate by making his opinions known publicly. Here is an excerpt from his statement:
“For too long has our Empire languished without an Emperor. It is due time that we, the Heirs, decide how the next Championships shall be held, lest we incur Gods wrath for our Chamberlains apparent lack of will to move forward.”
“I move that the Championship not be fought in the barren byways of the infinite, but rather here on Gods earth, by those of pure flesh. We should look not to those who cheat death by shedding and donning bodies like discarded rags, for who can tell what happens to the soul through More >
Tibus Heth Obtains Nationwide Broadcast Feed, Addresses Nation – news from EvE
Nov 6th
Piak Tibus Heth secured unauthorized airtime for the Caldari States largest news broadcast hub to make his first public address since the Constructions Revolt. In a passionate, fiery speech, Heth asserted his ownership of the corporation and accused mega-corporate leadership and Federation influence as being the core root of the Caldari States woes, and promised to make an example of Constructions to restore the States dignity.
The full transcript follows:
—
A young man died in my arms today bright, capable, brave everything that we should be, he was: A true Caldari patriot. He was killed by a single bullet, fired from the barrel of a mega-corporations riflea bullet that was intended for me.
The mega-corporations want me to tell you that his death was necessary; that he was guilty of committing a crime. They can go to hell, for I will not be compelled by anyone to insult that heros memory. He spoke no last words, made no final request, cried no plea for mercy, nor whispered a prayer for forgiveness. His wound left him without the voice to speak in the final moments of his life. But I knew him well enough to know this:
That man gave his life so More >
Inspired by Tibus Heth, Revolts Break Out in Caldari State – news from EvE
Nov 6th
The Citadel With the exception of Ishukone-controlled territories, reports of civil disobedience and open revolts against mega-corporate establishments are erupting across the Caldari State following the violence at the Caldari Constructions Armor Forge facility on Piak III. Roving bands of youths, inspired by the heroic actions of Tibus Heth, are targeting symbols of corporate affluence, damaging or destroying the property even as local police forces bear down on them. Blatant acts of workforce recalcitrance have been reported at numerous production facilities, an unheard of occurrence in the Caldari State. Thus far, the mega-corporations are countering the revolts cautiously, wary of following Kaalakiotas example. Despite the measured response, hundreds of arrests have been reported so far as efforts to contain the uprising continue.

Breaking News: Tibus Heth Acquires Majority Ownership of Caldari Constructions; Disgraced CEO Torkebaira Shutsu Takes His Own Life – news from EvE
Nov 6th
Piak Tibus Heth, a low-grade MTAC operator for Caldari Constructions and leader of a worker uprising, has acquired an ownership stake in the corporation following the voluntary surrender of personal shares and stock options by the corporations executive board, and by an anonymous financier who seized advantage of the earlier selloff to buy up huge quantities of stock. Torkebaira Shutsu, the former CEO and last executive to cede personal shares to Heth, ended his life shortly afterwards. The gruesome scene in the Constructions boardroom ends a standoff at the Armor Forge manufacturing plant that has the entire Caldari State captivated, although many questions remain.
The Secure Commerce Commission will investigate every detail of this ownership transfer thoroughly, promised Chairman Eman Autrech amidst vocal concerns raised by the mega-corporations. The legality of this takeover will be determined pending our evaluation of the means through which it was executed. Meanwhile, security throughout the State is hastily being bolstered over fears that the outrage over Kaalakiotas use of deadly force will begin to spill over. Including the Constructions worker shot dead by Home Guard troops, the death toll at the Armor Forge stands at 34.

Constructions Stock Reverses Freefall, Soars – news from EvE
Nov 6th
Yulai In a stunning reversal that has left traders and regulators alike scrambling for an explanation, Caldari Constructions stock is currently skyrocketing upwards, regaining and then surpassing almost all of the value lost when news of the worker uprising began. Setting an all-time high for trade volume, the abrupt change leaves Constructions stock as the only Caldari security listed on the CSE with a net positive gain on the day. “There was a big buyer out there when all the commotion started,” one trader commented. “Hes been there all day, taking the stock in just as fast as everyone else was shorting it. Now all the institutions are exposed on the upside and trying to buy shares back as fast as they can, pushing the thing up even higher.” The Secure Commerce Commission is equally perplexed, and monitoring the Armor Forge developments closely. “In light of the days events on Piak III, lets just say that were watching these trades closely and leave it at that,” an anonymous SCC official commented.

Breaking News: Home Guard Troops Open Fire on Constructions Workers; Dozens Killed in Resulting Riot – news from EvE
Nov 6th
Piak III Home Guard troops opened fire and killed at least one Caldari Constructions worker at the Armor Forge facility on Piak III, inciting a riot that claimed the lives of dozens of employees. Lured outside by Constructions CEO Torkebaira Shutsu for alleged negotiations on behalf of the employees trapped inside, a Home Guard sniper shot the Constructions worker as he approached the executive in the open. Recorded footage depicts a man believed to be Tibus Heth braving the gunfire to rescue the fallen comrade as the enraged crowd rushed the security perimeter, inciting a stampede that left numerous victims crushed or electrocuted. Anonymous sources have provided credible evidence that Kaalakiota CEO Haatakan Oiritsuu herself issued the order to use deadly force on the Constructions employees to retake the facility; the mega-corporation is furiously denying those claims. Tibus Heth, believed to be responsible for leading the revolt, is still alive after retreating back into the Armor Forge with the wounded Constructions worker slung over his shoulder as Home Guard troops and MTACs faced the rioting Constructions workers. Both sides are currently at a standstill; the Armor Forge remains under control of Heth and his loyalists. The dropship of Caldari More >
Caldari Stocks Plummet Following News of Constructions Revolt – news from EvE
Nov 6th
Yulai Caldari mega-corporation shares across the State have begun to freefall following word that Home Guard troops have been deployed to the Constructions Armor Forge facility on Piak III. This follows a spate of bad news for the State in recent weeks as investors continue to sell off Caldari assets and move to more secure investments, in particular Federation securities. Leading analysts are calling the situation at Piak emblematic of the States broader issues, citing the rampant inflation figures for the localized economies under mega-corporation control. Shares of Caldari Constructions stock, leading the downward spiral of the broader Caldari Funds Index, have already lost more than 30 percent of their value in heavy trading.

Home Guard Dropships Reported Landing on Piak III – news from EvE
Nov 6th
Piak – Home Guard dropships have landed at the Armor Forge manufacturing facility on Piak III, deploying mechanized infantry to counter what is now being called a hostage situation. According to a statement released by Caldari Constructions, a rogue employee named Tibus Heth is blackmailing the corporation at the expense of his own coworkers, and is threatening to kill those inside unless his demands are met. However, hundreds of laborers have gathered outside the security perimeter in apparent support of the man, and unconfirmed reports are circulating that only management-level Constructions employees are being held inside against their will inside the facility. No statement has been issued yet by Kaalakiota, the parent company of Home Guard, regarding the show of force onsite. The Constructions Armor Forge, by far the largest planetary asset of the corporation, is believed to be a primary supplier of industrial starship components and heavy equipment to several mega-corporations.
