Hah! You thought Operation: A.R.T.I.C. was real didn't you! Suckers! This one, however is really real, because I have pictures.

So peaceful and serene

One day, at a nice little place called Starport 73 on the planet, space pirate gunboat Ticklebucket landed to refuel. but the Ticklebucket carried something special. Something very special.

The map to spacebeards treasure.

Image
many a life was lost trying to find what is contained in this ship.

Somehow, word of this map got out, and four faction immediately dispatched squads out to recover it.

Here comes trouble...

The Cydonians, the Hothori, the Empire of the Rising Sun, and the United Planets and a few others have all sent in troops to sieze the map and do other such things. Here are the srarting factions.

Aw man, I was really looking forward to using my army of suicide scouts. Oh well, maybe next time...

The Cydonians should be able to reap enough destruction to make up for it.

I am skeptikal of this battle, as the last two have all been fakes, and this one having pictures makes it no better than [urlhttp://www.brikwars.com/forums/viewtopic.php?t=3233]Treasure Hunt,[/url] which failed to materialize. However, I continue to be suckered in on the basis that tricking people on the internet is not difficult and only brings the tricker closer to J+B-dom.


tl;dr: I'll take the first secret faction.

Yes, sorry if I didn't make it clear, I was going for a witty response over the usual "I'll have team X".
