We're going to have to get some of our critical data out of the Matrix before the Machines can get their hands on it. They're just moving too fast right now for us to be able to protect everything.

Nice work, Soldiers! We're back up and running now. Well... for the moment, anyways.
Good job, everybody, especially with that little hicup in the works. All we have to do now is defend it from Machine attacks...
Easier said than done, I guess. But we've got to do whatever we can to protect our interests while the Machines try to destroy them... and us.
Good to hear it, hopefully the Machines dont discover that little secret.
love the bit at the end about the hardlines
looks like Zon at least decided to do something about getting owned

Niobe ran as fast as she could to the hard line after she saw me and my Machinist compatriots. I guess she learned a little lesson after the last beating we gave her... the one that cost her that sham of a Truce.
Zion's hour of judgement draws nearer, this can only delay the inevitable for so long...
((The server crashed half-way through that LE lol))
Hehe, Zion thinks this temporary victory will win them the war? They are playing in the machine's world, a world where they hold all the cards.
Still intent on trespassing I see. I wonder how Zion would react if we sent in a few Sentinels to retrieve some data the Machines happened to leave there last time they were shutting the place down.
((Some excellent screenies there btw, looked like a great event))

That tends to happen when its 30 on 1. I'm not Neo....
Or am I?
An uplink like this takes planning, almost as much planning as the city itself, it is not an 'off the cuff' thing. This is one of the reasons why the Machines called of the truce, your claims as to requiring more space seem to be only half true.
An uplink to the Matrix means that an assault on the Machines whilst in the relative protection of New Zion is entirely possible.
So do any of you really have doubts left as to why the Machines called off the truce?

Yep.
Well done Zionites!

Was fun enjoyed the event Good work to Ventio
With Zion on the brink of obliteration they need something to take their mind off things so they follow the machines example in these situations by persecuting a few exiles for fun. I suspect the two sides of this farce will stop short of total obliteration.... but no doubt whatever is left will be fully deserving of and primed for extermination..... I can't wait 
Ebola are you so uncreative that you have to take other people's lines?

Communication? It's a bit more than that, they sent an object through it, removing data from the Matrix.
It's safe to assume it can be two-way and, if not already, soon they'll be able to gain access to the Matrix for personnel, being able to damage it from the safety of New Zion.

You don't need the safety of New Zion to throw a nuke inside the Matrix. We both know that. If you wanted to eradicate a nice part of MegaCity, anybody can do that anytime. And "get away" with is, that is.

Great job by our fellow Zion's here (allso reall good pictures Rarebit)
I wonder how long the Machines will go, before they will take more drastic method in use to get what they want.
Peace!

If a major incident in the Matrix would occur due to that uplink, I'd rather belief a story about a Cypherite spy who's trying to frame Zion.
