Let the moaning begin...... 7/17 raid info and 7/8 update

Last updated:  9 July 2014 12:30 PM MST

Info below was fed to me by my guest poster again, thanks as always!  Formatting and some comments are mine, but majority of the info was passed on to me due to time constraints!

(Assumption is raid is 7/17, have not verified that yet.)

Raid Description/Teasers

• The culmination of this conflict draws near. With Vassago and Grimshine in your crosshairs, now's the time to attack. The Reckoning is upon us! RSVP
• With the Reavers and Draconians locked in all out war, it's time to strike! Prepare your fleets to destroy both enemies and rid our territories of Warzones.  Win out and the lethal Nighthawk could be yours. Can we count on you, Captain? RSVP             
• Destroy all Warzones on the seas and claim the Phantom Nighthawk as your own. This deadly flagship sub glides across the World Map undetected, without alerting enemies until it's too late. Ready your forces - the Reckoning begins in less than 24 hours! RSVP 
• Click a prize on the left for more details. Use the tabs to view different prize tiers. You may redeem a limited number of prizes per tier. Destroy enough Warzones to purchase the Nighthawk Submarine and Siege Torpedo D65-Z! Go above and beyond to earn powerful limited blueprints, the flagship Phantom Nighthawk and the all-seeing Viper Interdictor.

Raid Prizes

• Siege Torpedoes D65-Z
• Viper Interdictor
• Nighthawk (new sub finally for those that wanted one)
• Phantom Nighthawk - "Cloaks sub fleets on world map" - Flagship hull

Misc other stuff

• Some hints that locator will be getting changed (New tabs for elite salvage and salvage) by type in the future.
• New error message "A problem has occurred. Please check your network connection and refresh your browser."
• New global chat notices will be prefixed with "KIXEYE:"

Tweaks to Blueprints seem to indicate that Atlas Carrier will be getting a refit (I don't pay attention, may already have one)
