High Earth Orbit

A new streak of Syndicate Bulk Freighters, as well as their respective escorts, warped in near the wrecks of the Protoss ships. The last expedition to the massive ring of destroyed ships brought plenty of reactors, as well as weaponry towards the Syndicate. This expedition was more or less the same - only that some of the bulk freighters had open cargo bay doors, hoping to literally "scoop" entire Protoss corvettes. The escorts stand by, with their 2040mm lasers aiming towards any occasional dormant Protoss ship.

In the end, nearly 20 Bulk Freighters have filled their cargo bays, and they set out to Frisson. Substituting for them, however, were multitudes of Star Barges, hoping to earn money by harvesting valuable Protoss outfits like computer systems, power distribution units, and thrusters. At some areas, entire sections of destroyed Protoss ships were threadbare - with only their husks remaining - left to deorbit back to Earth.

However, the star-barges suffered casualties. Dormant Protoss corvettes - activated through the sudden activation of their AI cores - soon set out to hunt the most unfortunate barges, cutting many of them down before they were destroyed by the sheer number of laser fire. Notified by this, the Syndicate allocated several Corvettes to oversee the Haulers, and to make sure that they will not be destroyed.
