Word came out this morning that Norus, the leader of Fraternity, had announced a redeployment to a new staging system, reposted to Reddit as follows: Hello all, here is Alliance updata for October 11th: FRT is relocating its primary rally point from 4-HW to the B-9C24 Keepstar.

The map in the north is settling down since the announcement that B2 Coalition was done fighting up there. Those groups formerly in the B2 Coalition have mostly moved south or made their peace with the new overlord in the north.  The new Phoenix Coalition, made up of Synergy of Steel, Banderlogs Alliance, Razor Alliance, and Game Theory, will remain in the northeast, having signed an agreement…

The North Feb…
