Building and operating these Shipcasters will require mastery of two new Triglavian-derived technologies: novel '''Transport Relay technology''' discovered in Triglavian facilities on the storm planet Athounon V, and advanced '''Stellar Transmuter technology''' that was reverse-engineered from Triglavian Dazh Porevitium Transmuters and recently tested in Vard, Egmar, and Turnur, with devastating consequences in the latter case.

Each empire has requested capsuleer support to obtain the research data required to complete their understanding of both technologies and then to assemble Shipcaster structures powered by nearby Stellar Transmuters within their territory so that they can use them to provide their militas with a significant mobility advantage in factional warfare.

Each empire is calling on loyal capsuleers to steal and reconstruct classified datacores taken from facilities belonging to the empires that currently possess the technologies that they require.

For example: if your chosen empire currently possesses the Transport Relay technology but does not yet possess the Stellar Transmuter technology, you can assist them by attacking the empire(s) that do have the Stellar Transmuter technology and collecting the datacore components from that empire's facilities.
