The Interstellar Starbase Syndicate has launched the first of its Caravan fleets on March 25, marking a new chapter in their history of innovation and zero-sec pioneering. The Carrier-led fleets will journey out to the recently uncovered regions, where they will conduct personal trades, as well as seed the markets with goods. Since the loss of their outposts, the future of the ISS had been somewhat uncertain, beyond general statements that they would continue to push for innovative approaches to zero-sec marketing and economisation. With their plans to use carriers en masse as part of a new frontier marketing tool, they continue to use unique approaches that exemplify the alliance’s signature ability, a willingness to explore new methods.
“The goal of the Caravan Fleet is to help seed deep space with the tools of civilisation, to teach the frontier a lesson in trade and commerce,” stated the leader of the ISS, Count TaSessine. “Before, we were bound to the outposts. Today, we’re the same, our goals and visions remain, but we have escaped the sedentary and isolated existence of the caretaker.”
Continuing his explanation of the modus operandi of the caravan fleet, Count TaSessine stated: “We will head into deep space and start trading with people there. We will seed markets with goods, and trade directly from our carriers in space…all we need we carry with us…people approach the caravan fleet, we trade directly in space…the entire alliance will remain mobile and on the move for 1-2 weeks.” ISS will have no home system, no stations to claim as their own as they roam the stars.

Across New Eden envious eyes narrowed as they read the reports about the new expansion. Orders were sent out and rival merchant fleets were hastily dispatched to the outer regions. Whoever controls these new markets will gain incredible wealth and power. They will be a new breed of merchant prince.
