Razanal: "Did they really just send a Countdown II on a suicide run just to steal an EW cruiser?"

Crowe: "I guess so. Not even going to question the logic of why they thought that was a good trade. Can you track the ship's beacon?"

Razanal: "No, they hit it with an EMP burst before capturing it. The self-destruct is inoperable too, unfortunately."

Crowe: "Well, on the flip side that also means it won't be much use to them. If they EMPed it all of the ship's systems and electronic warfare equipment is going to be thoroughly fried. Still, I wish I knew why exactly HYDRAXIS wanted it so badly."

Razanal: "I imagine we'll find out soon enough. Though you're right, the majority of the advanced systems will have been destroyed by the EMP. Ah, no matter. Engineers, retask manufacturing bays four and seven to replace the ships we lost today."
