RESETTLEMENT UPDATE
It has been one full year since the Frontier re-opened after the impact of War Titan Typhon. On the very anniversary of the impact, the Robots started a new offensive against humans after staying away for years. There have been a lot of speculations of the reasons why; the most popular theory speaks of a field test of a new kind of Robot technology, derived from the notorious Scylla kept locked away under a bunker at Zychion.
The new Scylla-type technology apparently allows robots to evolve, and has so far manifested itself as the Hydra – several times. Brave colonists have so far repelled the hydra seven times, thanks to a superhuman effort by alert intelligence gatherers and brilliant code crackers.
Key intelligence about the Hydra and its Scylla-type technology was handed over from the RX units. It is still not known why the alleged hybrid-robot enemies decided to help humans. Their motives remain a mystery, and CDF would like to remind everyone that any kind of collaboration with the enemy is considered treason.
NEW FEATURES
Let there be light
There are three new lamps to be found.
Old and New Missions
The name tags of all the Iron Challenge Mission Brokers have been updated to contain the name of the contact. On top of that, there are 18 new missions available.

The earth is vibrating near Nymphtown. The experienced local miner Arthur McGrangus has been studying the ground movement ever since the Typhoon hit. He expresses his worry, "I don't know what it is, I don't know what is coming.. But it's big.".
Local authorities have been contacted and an investigation is pending. The Calypso Defense Forces were unavailable for comment.

CALYPSO GATEWAY
The entrance to a world of opportunity and adventure
Introducing Calypso Gateway, the new content release from First Planet Company features a new entry point to the Entropia experience. For many years, Calypso colonist newcomers have started their new life on the busy streets of Port Atlantis, left with nothing but their bare hands and an orange jumpsuit. They have had a world of possibility to explore, but often the experience has proven daunting or overpowering. We expect this addition to Calypso to change that.
Heads up! First Planet Company's Content Release 2010.3 including the Calypso Gateway newcomer area will be released during the afternoon (UTC) today. In-game messages will also be issued before the servers go down.
FPC will release a new set of armor this week - the Community Recognition Award Armor. It will be awarded to members of the Calypso community that have worked with FPC and contributed to the development and maintenance of Planet Calypso.
To celebrate the arrival of vehicles to Planet Calypso and the Entropia Platform, FPC Official Avatars will travel around Calypso directly after MindArk's 11.2 release, giving out free vehicles to colonists they meet along the way. MindArk's 11.2 release is tentatively expected on June 21.
Only 1 vehicle per avatar will be allowed, and the offer will be available only while stocks last. Rumor has it though, that stocks will be plentiful :-)

KNOWN ISSUE
The mission terminal in Fort Troy will always show all three "Gather Part from X Robot" missions until all of them are completed. If a completed "Gather part from robot" mission is selected, the menu exits and no mission is selected. The terminal can then be activated again.
If any of the Genesis Star missions are active at the same time as "For Discreet Applicants Only" is also active, the objectives for "For Discreet Applicants Only" are set complete but the dialogue is not shown. Complete the other Genesis Star missions, and then talk to Mr Book again to progress in this branch of the mission chain, or talk to Mr Lyndon to continue in the other branch.
