Intruder Alert

There are several types of warnings and conditions on Union Navy ships and installations. One of the ones used less often in non drill situations is Intruder Alert.

It's sounded when unauthorized external forces or beings gain or have gained access to the interior of the ship or installation. It also can be sounded when classified areas are penetrated by non authorized personnel.

In the last major incident between Union and Nul forces in 5019, the hull of USS Avalon was breached and a single midshipman managed to hold an access hall preventing the Nul from reaching engineering at the cost of an arm and a leg. As a result of this incident, the USS Avalon Midshipman groups were the most decorated ones in the Union Navy that year (by total medal count as Midshipmen.)
