-Recent military intelligence and combat encounters have identified a new and potentially worrying evolution in Thargoid technology It appears that the recent appearance of space-borne "wasp-like" creatures within Galcop space (see the report by K. Wolf et al - Galcop Science Network #359-1701) has not gone unnoticed by our alien adversaries, who have also seemingly encountered them and their hive "stations".
+Recent military intelligence and combat encounters have identified a new and potentially worrying evolution in Thargoid technology It appears that the recent appearance of space-borne "wasp-like" creatures within Galcop space (see the report by K. Wolf ''et al'' - Galcop Science Network #359-1701) has not gone unnoticed by our alien adversaries, who have also seemingly encountered them and their hive "stations".
 As a result of this, a new type of Thargoid combat craft has now been sighted which has been nicknamed the Swarmer. Similar in design to their familiar octagonal motherships, these new vessels are distinguished byexternal protrusions used to carry small drone craft. These secondary vehicles seem to have replaced the conventional "Thargon" robot fighters, but if anything are more of a threat. Whilst they appear slightly weaker in individual weapon power, they are far more numerous with reports of up to 16 being released by a single mother vessel. But the most worrying aspect is that the craft appear to have taken the wasp swarming mentality, with co-ordinated attacks on individual vessels within a target fleet being reported.

-Also recently an amateur video has surfaced on ooTube which appears to show one of these fearsome craft making a sneak attack on an unidentified Coriolis station. This would appear to justify the Galcop warning, but don't take our word for it - check it out [http://youtu.be/AopP336l09I '''here'''].

-==Authors note==
+== Authors note ==
 Currently there is a minor glitch in trunk v1.76 (and earlier) which stops thargons triggering a ship script event when it is fired. To avoid this the swarming Thargons are currently scanClass CLASS_MISSILE. This gives a false alert to certain OXPs which automatically try and deal with missiles (and may spam the screen when the ships launch their drones).
