We are in orbit around the human colony of Tanner IV, which is reporting a peculiar problem. Apparently there is some microbe or organism that is passing from person to person and inventing memories. We're not sure if it is to an intelligent purpose, or if it is simply drawing from a jumble of existing memories to make new ones.
We probably have been in contact with them for too short a time for Starfleet Intelligence to be in the position to learn much, but on the other hand maybe this is important enough that even a few scraps of info are worth it.

Actually I went back to the snakepit to try and see what their exact name was and noticed some added options, namely establishing a horizon desk for 1 horizons report, same option for ISC and also the option for 3 new border zones including one for the horizon
I think both keeping up with what our nomadic friends are currently doing and getting an impression of what our soon to be major power is thinking about their overlord are worthwhile reports.
CBZ Shipbuilding is the report we haven't had in the longest, so it makes sense.
Agree with @Nix on Romulan ship report. And maybe @OneirosTheWriter will also update the apparently OP stats for the old BoP?
Now for the General Reports... hold my beer.
Klingon Rimward activity is something we've been wondering about for a long while now. Are the Gorn out there? Are the Klingons looking to expand in that direction? Where the border going to be as both we and the Klingons spread rimward.
No need to justify major power reports. It's always good to get an update on major powers, especially when we haven't before.
Have dropped a ISC diplomatic posture report since they never talk to anyone other than us in favor of a Klingon ship report.
Starfleet Intelligence Signals Intercept Addendum
Fleet traffic believed to be using protocols we affiliate with the Konen fleet has been picked up within the Gabriel Expanse.
Hey, remember that we picked up Konen signals entering the GBZ? Sure would be good to know what they're up to.
Are Yrillians building ships for anyone? We should ask about Yrillian shipyard activity once in a while, because builds for other powers could be "hidden" by being farmed out to the Yrillians.
This seems seriously pointless. They have one ship capable of brief warp, and they're probably thinking about building one that can actually go somewhere. Answered!

After their defeat at 24 Enio, the Cardassian fleet has pulled back. However, their science ships are running intense sensor sweeps of the area, and we are picking up faint subspace tracks in different areas. I suspect that what the Cardassians have been unable to achieve through their fleet, they will attempt to achieve through the Obsidian Order. I have requested of Starfleet Intelligence that the SS Appleseed move to shield our forces from hostile infiltration, including the colony worlds.
Operating at the end of a logistical line means I am loathe to issue orders to unnecessarily increase shield use, but it may be required until we gauge the threat posed by Cardassian assets.
We can also confirm that there is at least one Konen capital operating within the Gabriel Expanse now.

Sector Details
Roughly encompasses area from 4h to 1e, with outcroppings, with space above and below this plane
~15 Squares worth, each of which contains a few dozen stars, of which a quarter will have planets and other items of interest
Each power is accessing the sector from a different direction. Your staff will be attempting to surge out, claim, then retain space. Keeping a safe route for logistics for stations and nascent colonies will be important.
To start with, your commanders will have Starfleet assets and Starfleet auxiliaries. They will begin to ask for other resources, and you will be empowered by Acts of Council to pick and choose who you use to contribute.

I was going to post something about our recent captains logs for the last year and a half when I realized that if i did post it I would invoke Murphy by accident. Luckily I stopped in time. Genre savvyness saved me today.
Does anone have an opinion on a general Konen strength report versus a report about their capital? They were a near peer to the Cardassians and dont seem nice in general, so a Battleship built by them could be bad news, while all the other fleet filler should be interchangeable with what we are already facing.
Would be a nasty surprise if we learned mid battle that their hat was building ridiculously murdery capitals.
