The Directorate Reinforcement Squadrons

Deep in the Outer Reach, beyond the territory of the Dindrenzi state, lies the most advanced � and certainly the most sinister � human stellar dominion. This is the Directorate. The Directorate was created at the end of the first Outer Reach secession war by a consortium of immensely powerful corporations. They bought their political freedom from Terra in return for promising technological and economic support for the Terran government. But the treacherous corporate overlords quickly betrayed the Terrans when the second secession war broke out, backing the Dindrenzi separatists. The Directorate has enjoyed a highly profitable relationship with the Dindrenzi Federation ever since. For the Directorate however, this is just another alliance of convenience. The corporations have worked hard behind the scenes to create and inflame the new Dindrenzi war against the Terrans. The Directorate helped found the Zenian League, and even organised covert attacks on their own �allies� to push them into the conflict. Their motives for all this are simple � war is good business, and to the victor go the spoils. As the war in the Storm Zone rages on, new and more deadly ways of destroying the enemy fuels enhanced ship designs.

Inside this Reinforcement Set players will find 3x new Medium Cruisers, all of which are capable of being upgraded using modular components to a more powerful designation. Accompanying the new Mediums are 6x Light Frigates. The new Directorate Mediums start as standard Cruisers but can be upgraded to the role of Cruiser-Carrier. 9x Flight stands and Fighter/Bomber tokens are also included.
