Hmm, wonder where they get all this tech from?

An interesting mission. Yes I would have liked the mission to have handed out a blueprint too, that part of criticals is really underused. And if the next sub-chapter involves the intruders ships then we've missed a chance to see them in a cinematic. Also an interesting observation in that the appearance of the intruders matches their personal preference of ship. Heavy weight Halborn with the big armoured ship and light weight Carlyne with the small speedy ship.

There was a certain line in the mission that I didn't understand:
Zion Martial Arts Initiate: "We've had to take Carlyne's word for a lot of things. He could tell us he and Halborn actually live on the Moon, and how could we be sure if it was true or not?"
Zion Martial Arts Initiate: "...
Personally, I think Io is more likely."
When I first saw "Io," I thought it was a typo, but I couldn't think of anything close to that which would make sense. I talked to shearman about it, and he didn't know either. He googled "Lo" (because that's what it looks like ingame), and he discovered that "Lo" stands for "Low Observable," which is another name for ships using stealth technology, and this kind of makes sense in the context of the mission. I didn't realize that it was actually "Io" until I copied and pasted it here, so now my best guess is that it is a typo, and it's supposed to say "Lo." Does anyone have any thoughts on this?

H'mm, I need a transcript of this mission. If it's going on about high-tech ships, this is relevant to my interests.

While that is very coincidental I wouldn't read to much into it as "Io" is a name for one of Jupiter's moons.
