(Oct 22 - 29) Update - Ion Storms, Hijack Shuttle Objective, Bola Nerfs
Ion storms have arrived to fry borgs laws and even give them new ones. Some syndicate agents may be tasked with hijacking the emergency shuttle, ensuring no Nanotrasen employees return to CentComm. Bolas have been nerfed to not be nearly as effective for stuns, but they are still great for slowing someone down.
