💪 GORUCK Events Cancelled in Prague, Sydney, and Jersey City

GORUCK has pulled the plug on Prague, Sydney, and Jersey City, with all 🤝Stealth,🤝Urban, and 💪Operation Clear Field events cancelled due to low sign-up numbers.

📩 Registered participants received an email confirming that full refunds will be issued to their original payment method, with transactions expected to appear within the next few business days.

Per anomaly rules, cancelled events do not award any Season Points.

💙 The anomaly itself, however, is still very much on, with plenty of action and on-the-ground fun still ahead for agents! 🥳

One affected Resistance agent, who was signed up for all three events in Prague, shared:

Sad to hear that multiple events got canceled by GORUCK due to low participants.

Spoken to a couple Ruckers within the community and they are sad about it. For some of them, Rucking is part of their lifestyle and for others a way to stay fit.

The status of GORUCK events at the remaining Orion anomaly sites, Kure City, Geneva and Lima, is still unknown.

‼️If you want to see those events go ahead, the best way to support them is simple: Sign up!

🇫🇷 Paris Episode 5: The Curie Frequency

Paris, 1897 :

🐁 Gustave’s trusty mice were working themselves into a frenzy, scurrying about the Catacombs. The signals emanating from the depths continued to grow stronger… but then something changed.

🛜 Marie had managed to isolate part of the signal!

Marie Curie’s research was officially focused on radioactivity.
But certain fragments of her notebooks hinted at something else… She spoke of an invisible, diffuse energy, present in the air, in stone… and even in the human body. An energy capable of interacting with matter… but also with the mind 🧠 A disturbing description that was known at the time as ‘the Curie frequency’ and which we now call XM.

🌎 Location of the experiments mentioned in these notes?19-1-3-18-5 3-15-5-21-18

🔑 Worldwide, December 2013 :

Ingress is officially launched. A glimmer of hope for the NIA that XM will be controlled, thanks to people from all over the world.

Hank looked at the screen :
“The more XM there is, the more Machina will be contained.”
“Are you sure, Hank ?”
“We have no choice, ADA. Welcome every new player, but don’t tell them anything : for now, they must think it’s just a game.”

To be continued…

😳Sydney Orion Swag Shop's running low (on certain items) and the Online Store needs to close! 😳

Syd and a few agents did a stocktake down at the warehouse and noticed that the navy t-shirts and pins are running low. We would love them and other items to sell out before the big anomaly. They also mucked about with the forklifts...but that's not relevant right now.

So, consider this your last reminder to give in to your urges to BUY! BUY! BUY!
‼️Because at 13 May at 11:59PM AEST (UTC +10), Sydney Orion Swag Shop will close down. ‼️ This so Syd and his agent warehouse friends can pack all existing orders ready to hand out.

🇦🇺So, click here for the Sydney Orion Swag Shop! 🇦🇺

After that any other purchases for leftover swag items can be done only at the pre/after or mission day parties at our extra special swag table! This is only until everything is sold out!

Also, we are not letting you forget that sign up is still open for the anomaly on May 16! If you still haven't made up your mind on attending - consider this 'a push off the fence'. The more boots on the ground, the better the battle, the more likely that the Enlightened will...yeah, you know, 'get enlightened' on the situation...and run away!

🇺🇸 Jersey City swag store CLOTHING DEADLINE SOON!!

🚂 With just A FEW DAYS LEFT to order your apparel, it’s time to highlight some of the clothing items on the Jersey City swag store!!

😮 Show you Resist with our unisex t-shirt featuring the Jersey City Orion logo. Added bonus: get it personalized with your agent name!

Our designer told us…

The train in our logo is one of the most iconic locomotives from the New Jersey Central railroad: the Baldwin DR-4-4-1500hp. This model, the 2001 (also known as a “Babyface”) was uniqe in that it was a “double-ender”, and had a cab on both ends of the locomotive so it never had to turn around. All of the engines from this era were destroyed for scrap. Not a single one remains in a museum, but you can take one home on your T-Shirt!

👕 To look great at this anomaly, please order clothing by 10th May!!

🛍 Visit jc.ingres.blue TODAY and secure your swag - stocks are limited!!

✨BLUE CITIES XI - North America

🥳 On May 3rd, 2026 North American Resistance agents participated in Blue Cities XI and contributed just shy of 3 Billion MU (with rethrows) to the global score, proving once again that the indomitable Resistance spirit should not be underestimated and will not be suppressed! 💪

💕  It was so exciting to see big Blue fields go up across North America as Resistance agents worked together to cover and control their territories in a display of solidarity and grit.

💙 We are very proud of all the agents who participated to make Blue Cities XI another success.

🇫🇷 Paris Episode 6: The Message

Paris, 1906

✍️ Finally, the research could be shared with the whole world. Marie knew just the right agent for the job!

🐭 With pride, one of the mice in the group offered her its ear, to which she attached a message.
The little four-legged soldier hurried off to the place indicated by the scientist : ‘Le Chat Noir’.

Once there, the mouse slipped inside through a hole, scanning every face. It found the man it was looking for! Alphonse Mucha recognised the badge on the mouse. Mucha removed the message from her ear and read it.

😀Hastily, he «glyphed» three symbols on a blank sheet of paper. Frowning, he thought for a moment, interlaced the symbols, and that was when he understood. He stood up and left immediately.

⛴️ He took only the bare essentials and set off for the United States to deliver the message, arriving in 1910.

🇨🇿 Then, he returned to his native country, Prague, where he found unprecedented support for his mission!

🏢 In the Niantic offices, 2014

The anomaly schedule is being drawn up. Hank looks at it and his eyes fall on a date: 23 August 2014, Prague. He smiles because he knows this city is capable of great things.

Hank calls out to ADA :
“ADA, are there any other dates scheduled for Prague in the future?”
“No, Hank, not yet.”
“Right, according to the data, an anomaly will be scheduled for 16 May 2026. I want Prague and Sydney to host anomalies on that date. Both cities have enormous potential, so if they’re activated together, we should witness quite the miracle!”

To be continued…

🇫🇷 On August 22nd, Paris will host one of the most exciting Anomalies of the year!! Don’t wait any longer: register here right now!!

🗞 HANK IS BACK!!

After a brief appearance at Paris FS last year, HANK JOHNSON IS BACK!! And he’s brought you a campaign! 🎁

🐒 In a news update released today by Ingress, we learn that Hank is busy investigating “nemesis operatives breaching reality” 😱

😨 Who are nemesis operatives you ask, and who can recall what Umbra was? Why does “Myriad” sound familiar? BTW did we actually stop the Aberration or just collectively forget about it? It’s been a while…We may need to dig up some old Essex chats to explain this plot line!

Nonetheless RGNN takes the view that it’s nice to see Ingress returning some depth, intrigue and “what on earth is going on?” vibes to the game.

🧳 What you need to do about all this though, that’s much more clear. From May 22nd at 18:00 UTC to June 2nd 18:00 UTC, jump into the dispatch tab (you knew it would involve the dispatch tab) and start the new campaign.

Complete this up to three times whilst unlocking Intel. You’ll also benefit from up to 3000 Orion tokens towards your series medal. 🥉🥈🥇🏅

⬛️ The tasks include glyph hacking, kinetic capsules, deploying and destroying mods, and recharging - nothing too revolutionary or complex, and certainly within the grasp of all agents.

📈 That said, the the numbers do ramp up, with the final round requiring the following substantial totals.

🔵Earn 5,100 Glyph Hack Points
🔵Claim 10 Kinetic Programs
🔵Deploy 580 Portal Mods
🔵Destroy 1,500 Portal Mods
🔵Recharge 10,000,000 XM
