Host ACTD John Sea says:
Resume USS Andromeda "The Rigel Agenda" Part VI 10411.07

CEO Lieutenant JG Conor says:
::on the bridge::

CNS Lieutenant Commander Jordaïn says:
@::on the BOP in cargobay taking a sample of the virus::

Host ACTD John Sea says:
Scene: The Imperial Klingon Battle Cruiser Blood Wing remains off the starboard bow of the Andromeda, bristling with weapons, an ever present reminder of Klingon culture

XO Commander Z’heta says:
@*CNS* Tal, report, have you beamed back to Andromeda yet?

FCO Lieutenant Andrews says:
@::prepares to undock the shuttle from the BoP:: XO: He's not here?!

CTO Commander Senek says:
@::Sits down in the shuttle::

Host ACTD John Sea says:
Action: The CNS beams back to the Andromeda with the virus sample

XO Commander Z’heta says:
@::enters the shuttle:: CTO: are you ready to go?

CTO Commander Senek says:
@XO: Yes.

CNS Lieutenant Commander Jordaïn says:
@*XO* I just beamed on board Sir, with the virus sample

FCO Lieutenant Andrews says:
@XO/CTO: Sounds like that's everybody. ::undocks the shuttle and engages the impulse engine::

CTO Commander Senek says:
@XO: I'm not entirely convinced it's necessary for us to go back yet, though. Did the captain give you a reason?

XO Commander Z’heta says:
@CTO: Great! FCO: Lt. Andrews, inform Andromeda and get us out of here, whenever possible.  ::presses button to close the air lock::

FCO Lieutenant Andrews says:
@::activates the comm system to signal Andromeda:: XO: Already on the way. ::concentrates on the instrument readings::

Host ACTD John Sea says:
Action: The CNS is beamed into the isolation quarantine field, his EVA suit is destroyed in the transporter buffer as a biohazard

XO Commander Z’heta says:
@CNS: Ok, I was going to ask if you wanted to return with us, but it's better this way, the shuttle is quite crowded.

Host ACTD John Sea says:
Scene: Main warp core is heating up, 30 minutes to start

CNS Lieutenant Commander Jordaïn says:
*XO* Indeed, this way it is safer for all of us *CO* Captain, I'm onboard of the Andromeda now ready to begin research within 20 minutes

Host CO Captain Sketek says:
*CNS* Understood.

CEO Lieutenant JG Conor says:
*CO*: Sir, should I head down to the shuttle bay to set up portable isolation fields?

XO Commander Z’heta says:
@CTO: we must take caution, our EVA suits may spread the virus on to our vessel.

FCO Lieutenant Andrews says:
@*PO_Farin*: Jennara, I need clearance to land the shuttle under biohazard conditions. Evacuate the deck; I'll take over control.

Host CO Captain Sketek says:
*CEO* That may be a good idea.

CEO Lieutenant JG Conor says:
::Steps into the TL:: TL: Shuttle bay one

CNS Lieutenant Commander Jordaïn says:
::walks to the research area of the science lab and secures the container with the virus in it's holding position::

Host ACTD John Sea says:
<Bloodwing> COMM: USS Andromeda: Your People are off the Bird of Prey and moving to your ship we will now take possession of the Bird of Prey

Host CO Captain Sketek says:
*XO* I am reading that the entire shuttle and its insides are a biohazard. Explain.

Host CO Captain Sketek says:
*XO* Is it the air? Systems? Prisoners? Crew?

CTO Commander Senek says:
@XO: Of course. I'm hoping that we haven't already spread the virus to these pirates.

FCO Lieutenant Andrews says:
<PO_Farin> *FCO*: Aye sir. Opening the bay doors. I'll lock the doors on the way out.

CEO Lieutenant JG Conor says:
::Runs into the Shuttle Bay control room::

XO Commander Z’heta says:
@*CO*: Captain, we were on  the BOP's atmosphere that contained the air born virus.  The FCO is providing for us to land into SB under a controlled environment.

CEO Lieutenant JG Conor says:
*FCO*: Hold on one second!

FCO Lieutenant Andrews says:
<PO_Farin> ::bumps into the CEO:: CEO: Sir, you can't be here, the shuttle's coming in under biohazard; the deck is to be evacuated.

CEO Lieutenant JG Conor says:
PO_Farin: ::points to portable isolation field generator:: I've got myself covered

Host CO Captain Sketek says:
*XO* Fine. Make sure that will actually happen and that no contamination whatsoever can spread throughout the Andromeda.

XO Commander Z’heta says:
@*CO*: Aye aye, Sir.  Away team out.

CNS Lieutenant Commander Jordaïn says:
::starts making preparations for testing::

CEO Lieutenant JG Conor says:
::Setups inside the control room and activates the isolation field::

FCO Lieutenant Andrews says:
<PO_Farin> CEO: Sir, I would recommend using an EVA suit; we have several in the lockers on the flight deck.

Host CO Captain Sketek says:
*XO* Frankly, I would be willing to make you manoeuvre near our ship and then have you individually beamed back one by one. The transporters would provide strong protection against alien infections.

Host ACTD John Sea says:
Action: The IKS Bloodwing extends a tractor beam around the Bird of Prey and begins to tow it out of the shipping lanes

XO Commander Z’heta says:
@CTO: Your concern is quite justified, but the virus is essentially airborne and I hope that the pirates didn't get too much from us.

Host CO Captain Sketek says:
*XO* That would mean a loss of a shuttle. Are you certain that you really can return safely with the shuttle?

FCO Lieutenant Andrews says:
::holds the shuttle in position outside the flight bay::

CEO Lieutenant JG Conor says:
PO_Farin: I'll put one on.

Host ACTD John Sea says:
<Bloodwing> Comm: USS Andromeda: Due to the Biohazard we cede custody of the prisoners to you please inform us of anything you learn we are moving off now

CEO Lieutenant JG Conor says:
::Takes EVA suit from locker and puts it on::

CEO Lieutenant JG Conor says:
PO_Farin: Now its time to get out of here!

CTO Commander Senek says:
@XO: At least they still look fine.

FCO Lieutenant Andrews says:
<PO_Farin> CEO: Aye sir. All: Everybody, get out of here! Now!

Host CO Captain Sketek says:
COMM: Bloodwing: Acknowledged. We will report if we learn anything new. Andromeda out.

XO Commander Z’heta says:
@*CO* Understood, Sir.  FCO: You heard the Captain: place us on transporter range and have us beamed 1 by 1.  The Andromeda’s tractor beam will do the rest.

FCO Lieutenant Andrews says:
@::sees the small figure of the CEO putting on an EVA suit:: Self: What the...

CNS Lieutenant Commander Jordaïn says:
*XO* Rie, what is your status?

FCO Lieutenant Andrews says:
@XO: We're already here, sir.

CEO Lieutenant JG Conor says:
::Looks at the FCO in the shuttle:: *FCO* Well someone has to clean down that shuttle and this bay.

XO Commander Z’heta says:
@*CO* Can you tractor the shuttle after we all beamed?

FCO Lieutenant Andrews says:
@*CEO*: I have enlisted to do that.

Host CO Captain Sketek says:
*XO* We can, at least temporarily. I am not sure if we can do that all the way to Starbase.

CEO Lieutenant JG Conor says:
::Brings up quarantine field around the shuttle bay::

CTO Commander Senek says:
@::Checks the pirates, just to be sure::

Host CO Captain Sketek says:
::Checks the tractor beam controls::

FCO Lieutenant Andrews says:
@*CEO*: But you will need to be in Flight Ops to tractor this bird in.

CNS Lieutenant Commander Jordaïn says:
::starts testing the sample to see if it appears in Starfleet database::

CEO Lieutenant JG Conor says:
*FCO* I was thinking that, does this console have command transfer ability?

CTO Commander Senek says:
@XO: I take that back. The pirates appear to be infected. We should hurry.

Host ACTD John Sea says:
Action: The Klingon Battle Cruiser tows the Bird of Prey out of the shipping lanes, comes about and cuts loose with all forward disruptors, incinerating the Plague Ship in a local starburst as the core detonates, the Bloodwing moves off and cloaks, fading into the night

FCO Lieutenant Andrews says:
@*CEO*: I'll set it up. ::taps at his console, giving the CEO authorisation to use Flight Ops:: *CEO*: Done.

CNS Lieutenant Commander Jordaïn says:
*XO* Sir? do you hear me?  what is your status and that of the pirates?

XO Commander Z’heta says:
@CTO: Understood, thank you.
   *CO* Sir, Commander Senek reported that the Pirates are indeed contaminated.  I believe that it's safe to land the shuttle, if precautions are taken.  I'd hate to loose a shuttle.

CEO Lieutenant JG Conor says:
*FCO* I now have access, thank you.

Host CO Captain Sketek says:
::Sees from the screen that the former pirate ship was blasted out of existence::

XO Commander Z’heta says:
@*CNS* Tal, I'm sorry, things are complicated.  The pirates are contaminated, they'll be put to stasis until you can figure out a cure.

Host CO Captain Sketek says:
*XO* Understood. Make sure that it will be safe.

FCO Lieutenant Andrews says:
@XO: Lieutenant Power is going to tractor the shuttle in once we've all been beamed in, to clean the shuttle.

CNS Lieutenant Commander Jordaïn says:
self: strange it is not in the database and it looks to perfect for nature. This one has been created by man...

CNS Lieutenant Commander Jordaïn says:
self: This is a necro-class, flesh dissolving. Bad , very bad.

CNS Lieutenant Commander Jordaïn says:
*CO* Sir, I have information about the virus.

Host CO Captain Sketek says:
*CNS* What have you discovered?

CNS Lieutenant Commander Jordaïn says:
*CO* Well sir, it is hand made and it is a Necro-class virus, witch means flesh dissolving. I will be able to also program the transporter buffer to screen it out

XO Commander Z’heta says:
@FCO: Change of plans.  We'd like to keep this shuttle, so let's land it.

Host CO Captain Sketek says:
*CNS* Hand-made?

CNS Lieutenant Commander Jordaïn says:
*CO* It is going to be a hell of a job to find a cure for this one, but I will find it. Yes sir, it is genetically engineered

CEO Lieutenant JG Conor says:
::Programs a timed force field system to prevent contamination of the SB::

Host CO Captain Sketek says:
*CNS* Keep working on the cure.

XO Commander Z’heta says:
@FCO/CTO: After landing, I think we can just site-to-site transport ourselves to screen the virus away from our EVA suits.

FCO Lieutenant Andrews says:
@XO: Sir, with all due respect, we don't need to be here for the shuttle to land; I've given Lieutenant Power control of Flight Ops so he can tractor the shuttle right in.

CTO Commander Senek says:
@::Nods at the XO::

CNS Lieutenant Commander Jordaïn says:
*CO* Aye sir

CEO Lieutenant JG Conor says:
*CO*: I have a way to clean the shuttle of the virus but it involves sealing off the Shuttle Bay for 3 days as baryon radiation has a half life of 3 days.

XO Commander Z’heta says:
@FCO: Even better. The sooner we put the pirates on stasis the better.  Good work.  Make it so.

Host CO Captain Sketek says:
*CEO* Work on that solution. Sealing off the Shuttle Bay is acceptable.

FCO Lieutenant Andrews says:
@XO: Just a matter of time until all the appropriate areas can be set up with quarantine fields.

CNS Lieutenant Commander Jordaïn says:
::starts working on the program for the transporter buffer to screen out the virus and lets another program run to give a very detailed information sheet of the virus::

XO Commander Z’heta says:
@*CO* Captain, we're about to land.  The CEO is handling the procedures to clear the virus from the Shuttle once she lands.  The crew will beam in and the pirates will beam to sick bay, if you agree.

CEO Lieutenant JG Conor says:
::Transfers all shuttles and supplies to other shuttle bays and storage areas from SB1::

Host ACTD John Sea says:
<Intelligence_Flash_Transmission><CO_Console> To...USS Andromeda...Intelligence Briefing....USS Dauntless...overdue....from Starbase 50..End

Host CO Captain Sketek says:
::Looks at the console::

Host CO Captain Sketek says:
*XO* I agree.

XO Commander Z’heta says:
@*CO* Aye aye, Captain.
   *CNS* Tal, the pirates will beam directly to sickbay.  Have a quarantine fare ready for them.

CNS Lieutenant Commander Jordaïn says:
*XO* Aye sir, ready in 2 minutes, I'll contact you

Host ACTD John Sea says:
<Computer> *CNS* Buffer program complete *Beep*

CNS Lieutenant Commander Jordaïn says:
::starts preparing quarantine zone for the pirates and hears the beep from the console telling him that the transporter program is completed::

XO Commander Z’heta says:
@*CNS* Thank you. FCO/CTO: I'd like to stay on board 'till the CNS confirms that the pirates are safe in SickBay.  If you want to beam away before, just go ahead!

CTO Commander Senek says:
@XO: I'd like to get updated on the situation as soon as possible, so I'll beam out right now.

FCO Lieutenant Andrews says:
@::looks over at the XO:: XO: I suppose I don't have much choice in the matter.. just don't scratch the paint, all right? ::grins::

CNS Lieutenant Commander Jordaïn says:
*XO* Rie, when the pirates are on board I would also like to see you in sickbay if possible. You can start beaming the pirates to this location ::sends info to the shuttle::

Host ACTD John Sea says:
Action: The Quarantine Stasis tubes are prepared

XO Commander Z’heta says:
@::smiles back at the FCO::

CTO Commander Senek says:
@::Contacts the Andromeda's transporter chief and asks to be transported directly to the bridge::

FCO Lieutenant Andrews says:
@::starts chuckling::

XO Commander Z’heta says:
@*CNS* Ok.  The FCO and the CTO are beaming away.  Once they're done, the pirates and myself will go to Sick bay.

Host ACTD John Sea says:
Action: The CTO is beamed to the bridge, the CNS' program successfully filters out the virus and destroys the EVA suit

CTO Commander Senek says:
::Materializes on the bridge, walks to the tactical console::

CNS Lieutenant Commander Jordaïn says:
self: the results are good on the transporter program, well don computer ::hears a beep::

FCO Lieutenant Andrews says:
@::sets the shuttle to hold position relative to the Andromeda, then stands::
 *Andromeda*: Ready to beam out.

CTO Commander Senek says:
::Notices that the Bird of Prey has been destroyed by the Klingons, who are also gone now::

CTO Commander Senek says:
CO: What has happened here?

Host CO Captain Sketek says:
CTO: Welcome back.

Host ACTD John Sea says:
Action: The FCO beams to the bridge

Host CO Captain Sketek says:
CTO: A Klingon battle cruiser entered the area. They destroyed the ship after you left. Then they went away.

XO Commander Z’heta says:
@*CNS* Stand by...
   *Transporter_chief* Lock on to the pirates co-ordinates and have them beam to the quarantine section of Sick Bay.  After that, just put me next to the CNS, please.

CNS Lieutenant Commander Jordaïn says:
*XO* Ready Rie

Host ACTD John Sea says:
Action: The pirates materialise in stasis and the XO materialises next to the CNS

XO Commander Z’heta says:
*CO* Captain, I'm on Andromeda.  The pirates are under the quarantine section:: 
 CNS: Good to see you, Tal!

FCO Lieutenant Andrews says:
::finds himself on the bridge, suddenly without that bulky EVA suit, then takes his position at the helm::

CNS Lieutenant Commander Jordaïn says:
XO: Nice of you to visit, Rie. Take a look at this ::shows him the info from the first scan::

CTO Commander Senek says:
CO: I can tell that much from the sensor logs. But did the Klingons give any kind of an explanation for this?

CEO Lieutenant JG Conor says:
*XO* I am ready to tractor the shuttle in when you give the word

CNS Lieutenant Commander Jordaïn says:
XO: This virus is made by man and it is a Necro-class, flesh dissolving

XO Commander Z’heta says:
CNS: Interesting...  *CEO* Go ahead and inform the FCO of your actions.

FCO Lieutenant Andrews says:
::pulls up a visual display of the proceedings in the flight bay::

CNS Lieutenant Commander Jordaïn says:
XO: I'm now running a very detailed scan to find out more

Host CO Captain Sketek says:
CTO: It was their ship, stolen from them. Since they realised it was so contaminated, they decided to destroy it. They didn't exactly spell out this line of reasoning but I find it rather obvious.

CEO Lieutenant JG Conor says:
*FCO* I am ready to bring the shuttle in.

XO Commander Z’heta says:
CNS: engineered virus? For war purposes no doubt...  Is the Captain aware of this?

Host ACTD John Sea says:
<Flash_Transmission><Data_Only>.... Distress call from Merchant vessel SS Traveler....

FCO Lieutenant Andrews says:
*CEO*: Understood. Proceed, Mr. Power. Use anyone you need from the flight crew to clean it.

CNS Lieutenant Commander Jordaïn says:
::hears a beep from the scanner console:: XO: Hold the phone, it seems that the computer has found something. Yes the Captain knows ::walks to the other console::

CEO Lieutenant JG Conor says:
::Activates the shield program and begins tractoring the shuttle in::

CNS Lieutenant Commander Jordaïn says:
::sees the info:: Self: this can not be true....

XO Commander Z’heta says:
::nods at the CNS::

Host ACTD John Sea says:
Action: The shuttle tractors into the bay and lands softly

CTO Commander Senek says:
CO: I find their actions highly suspicious. It's almost as if they didn't want us to examine and study the virus.

CEO Lieutenant JG Conor says:
::Activates a shield around the shuttle to prevent contamination of all air in the cargo bay::

CNS Lieutenant Commander Jordaïn says:
Self: This i have never seen ::hits the console with his fist and curses::

XO Commander Z’heta says:
CNS: What’s wrong?

Host CO Captain Sketek says:
CTO: We have a sample anyway. Whatever their reasons were, they are still our allies and can't be considered a threat.

CTO Commander Senek says:
::Receives the Traveller’s distress call::

CTO Commander Senek says:
CO: I'm not saying they are a threat. I'm saying they are deliberately hiding something from us.

FCO Lieutenant Andrews says:
::sees that the shuttle's down, then hopes the CEO understands Flight Ops protocols and will shut the bay door::

CTO Commander Senek says:
CO: I'm receiving a distress call from SS Traveller.

CNS Lieutenant Commander Jordaïn says:
XO: The virus is what’s wrong. It seems that this Virus is actually a combination. A mix of genetically altered viral cells and nanobots. This makes it more difficult to destroy. I'm going to be needing help here.

CEO Lieutenant JG Conor says:
::Closes shuttle bay door and seals them with level-8 quarantine field::

Host CO Captain Sketek says:
CTO: Put it on speakers. Find their location, status and cargo.

XO Commander Z’heta says:
CNS: Intriguing...  Can you see if it's klingon technology?  Or if were the pirates responsible for the virus creation?

CTO Commander Senek says:
CO: There's no audio, only a brief data transmission which is being jammed at the source.

CTO Commander Senek says:
CO: I would speculate they're under attack.

CEO Lieutenant JG Conor says:
::Changes the environmental settings and vents all the air out of the SB::

CNS Lieutenant Commander Jordaïn says:
XO: I’ll try to find out how it was made and by who. But I can't say for sure that I will find out.

Host CO Captain Sketek says:
*Shipwide* All senior crew, except for those working on the virus, should return to bridge.

XO Commander Z’heta says:
CNS: Very well.  As a former CSO I'll aid you in what I can.

Host CO Captain Sketek says:
CTO: How far away are they?

CTO Commander Senek says:
CO: The Traveller is currently close to the Rigel border, about three days away from Rigel IV.

CNS Lieutenant Commander Jordaïn says:
XO: Thanks Rie, please inform the Captain on all my findings until now.

Host CO Captain Sketek says:
CTO: How far from us?

XO Commander Z’heta says:
*CO* Captain, I'm helping Mr. Jordaïn with the virus, so unless you want me on the bridge I'll stay on Sick Bay.

CEO Lieutenant JG Conor says:
::Replicates baryon generators in the SB and begins scrubbing down the shuttle::

Host CO Captain Sketek says:
*XO* You may remain there.

CTO Commander Senek says:
CO: It'll take us only fifteen minutes at warp 7 to reach them.

XO Commander Z’heta says:
*CO* Thank you Sir. BTW, the counsellor found that the virus is part organic-part robot.  I'm attempting to see if it's klingon tech.

CNS Lieutenant Commander Jordaïn says:
::checks on the pirates when a scan is being performed on the nanobots::

FCO Lieutenant Andrews says:
CO/CTO: Plotting a course.

Host CO Captain Sketek says:
FCO: We should intercept them in full warp.

FCO Lieutenant Andrews says:
CO: Aye sir, warp 9. ::adjusts the course settings::

CTO Commander Senek says:
CO: I recommend we prepare for a fight.

Host ACTD John Sea says:
Action: The Andromeda jumps to full warp, at warp 9 she will be on top of the freighter in 5 minutes

XO Commander Z’heta says:
::presses buttons on the console, begins a DNA analysis of the organic part of the virus::

Host CO Captain Sketek says:
CTO: Yes, yellow alert.

FCO Lieutenant Andrews says:
CO/CTO: Five minutes until we arrive.

Host CO Captain Sketek says:
CTO: Try to get a contact to the vessel that initiated the distress call.

Host CO Captain Sketek says:
CTO: Also check scanners for any hostile ships or other hostile activity.

CTO Commander Senek says:
::Sounds yellow alert::

CNS Lieutenant Commander Jordaïn says:
::hears a beep and walks back to the console:: XO: They must be joking, now this is a masterpiece. Based on the level of work I see here. These nanobots seem to be an interplanetary corporation job.

Host ACTD John Sea says:
Action: As yellow alert sounds, all blast doors are closed, weapons are loaded, structural integrity shields come on, phasers charge

CTO Commander Senek says:
CO: There's a refitted Excelsior class ship, USS Dauntless, and the merchant freighter Traveller on our sensors.

XO Commander Z’heta says:
::approaches the CNS and looks at the file:: CNS: Very intriguing...  Is there a way to disrupt these nanobots?  Like with a small electrical discharge?

Host CO Captain Sketek says:
CTO: Could they be fighting together?

CTO Commander Senek says:
CO: The freighter has been scarred by phasers and the Dauntless by Klingon disrupters.

Host CO Captain Sketek says:
CTO: Sounds highly unlikely then.

CTO Commander Senek says:
CO: The phaser hits on the Traveller seem a bit out of place, though.

FCO Lieutenant Andrews says:
CTO: It couldn't have been the pirates; we'd have heard by now.

Host CO Captain Sketek says:
CTO: Out of place?

CNS Lieutenant Commander Jordaïn says:
XO: That is always a possibility, we can try. ::sends a small electrical discharge through the nanobots and sees what happens::

FCO Lieutenant Andrews says:
CO: Approaching the ships, sir. ::drops out of warp::

Host CO Captain Sketek says:
CTO: Regardless of that, raise red alert and load torpedoes.

CEO Lieutenant JG Conor says:
::Sets up portable shield generator around baryon generators and shuttle::

CTO Commander Senek says:
::Raises red alert and powers up weapons fully::

Host ACTD John Sea says:
Action: Andromeda comes to full battle readiness, torpedo tubes are loaded

Host CO Captain Sketek says:
::Tries to open a communication channel to Dauntless and the freighter::

Host ACTD John Sea says:
Action: The Andromeda drops out of warp

CTO Commander Senek says:
CO: The Traveller is unable to communicate due to phaser damage.

XO Commander Z’heta says:
CNS: Meanwhile I'll check what can we do with the bio part of the virus.  If we disable both components, I guess we've found a cure.  ::checks the Computer for the DNA analysis::

Host CO Captain Sketek says:
CTO: Maintain full shields.

CTO Commander Senek says:
::Does tachyon and neutrino scans to look for cloaked vessels::

CTO Commander Senek says:
CO: Aye, we're in full battle readiness.

XO Commander Z’heta says:
::notices the Read Alert::  CNS: This alert is not a good sign.  The sooner we get this over, the better.

Host USS_Dauntless says:
COMM: Andromeda: We are in the midst of rescue operations do you wish to assist?

Host CO Captain Sketek says:
COMM: Dauntless: We see that there has been fire fight here. Who is responsible?

CNS Lieutenant Commander Jordaïn says:
XO: I agree with that. but I feel we are going to have a bumpy ride.

CTO Commander Senek says:
::Scans the phaser burns on the Traveller and sees that they were made by the Dauntless::

Host CO Captain Sketek says:
CTO: If something fires at us, you may fire back immediately.

CTO Commander Senek says:
CO: Aye.

Host USS_Dauntless says:
COMM: USS Andromeda: We have driven off some pirates and unfortunately missed and hit the freighter a few times

XO Commander Z’heta says:
::Checks the proteins found on the DNA's encoding on the Computer's medical library::

Host CO Captain Sketek says:
CTO: Do they speak the truth?

FCO Lieutenant Andrews says:
::thinks to himself, "That can't be possible.. what are they hiding?"::

CTO Commander Senek says:
CO: The phaser burns on the Traveller were made by them. It's possible, but missing and hitting the wrong target that many times sounds way too improbable.

CTO Commander Senek says:
CO: I wouldn't believe them.

Host USS_Dauntless says:
