The Q-Pedd Catalyst

Mission Briefing

Scientists experimenting with robotic A.I. "companions" made an unfortunate error in the bots' affection algorithms, causing these "Q-Pedds" to rebel and flee in nearby science transport ships. The Q-Pedds took much of the related equipment with them. To those that may detect any roaming Q-Pedd ships: seizing back this equipment is of great importance.

During the Q-Pedd Event, the following temporary effects apply to the entire Galaxy:

* Daily rewards for both minerals and research provide 50% more than before.
* Cybernetic (Vygoid, Zolazin) and robotic-proficient (Drannik) races receive a 5% boost to their racial bonus
* Due to Hyperluminal radiation, Time Manipulators cost 35 energy to use.

Mission Dialogue

We believe we may have discovered a catalyst for the malfunctions the Q-Pedd's have been experiencing... hyperluminal radiation. Our expert on this planetary phenomenon, Dr. Grahr, will brief you.

Dr. Grahr: Thank you for coming.

Are you responsible for the stellar activity we have been detecting recently ?

It is possible.

Your movements are releasing intense amounts of cosmic radiation into our systems!

...

And as a result, our colonies are reporting significant casualties.

...

There must be a way that you can proceed without affecting us in this way.

This migration is part of our growth... We cannot alter it.

I'm not sure if you understand.  We can't allow any further activity if it continues to kill our citizens.

You cannot interfere.

We will, but we can work together on a solution if you're willing to try.

The migration will continue... {CHANNEL CLOSED}

Well, that didn't get us anywhere.

Then we have no choice. We'll have to stop their egress by force..

What do you have in mind ?

Track their movements and find out where they are headed. We'll have ships start intercepting immediately.

It may take some time.  They have several groups of ships heading in what seems to be random directions.

This is your top priority. Countless lives are at stake.

End Transmission.
