I've been strolling peacefully around Hudson today and found something rather infuriating. A bunch of Zoners made a base without letting us know beforehand. That wouldn't be that infuriating in and of itself, cause this hunk of junk could be easily dismantled, even in my Barghest. But they keep a lot of big ships there.
They're evidently breaking code of conduct here and I think it's time to show them who's the boss around here.
The base is called Hudson Trading Company, is owned by some blokes using [Star] transponder and is located just outside the inactive Hamburg gate in Hudson, right outside Dawson.
Let's bring some Scyllas and take this sucker down.
I hope even though many of the Colours are enjoying their retirement, we can still rely on you, and vice versa.

SHIP ID: LR-What.Da.Hel?! LOCATION: Buffalo, York FROM: Amber Lane RANK: "Rogue Warlady" SUBJECT: ~Neutral lolipops~
Very well, Zoners using their neutrality. How sweet.
But NEUTRALITY doesn't mean you are in safe and you can do everything without facing the consequences.
I will dispatch scouts as well.
~ Long live the Rogues!!!~

The base was dismantled with the cooperation of some Rheinland battleships. I had the pleasure watching it blow up from the bridge of Massachusetts Midnight, and right after that I saw the uninvited Outcast Dreadnought getting destroyed by the Rheinlanders as well. Midnight managed to successfully retreat to Dawson before they tried anything stupid.
However later I saw that the base was indeed bountied and proceeded to claim it, as a rightful member of the Rogues who own that space.
To my resentment the Outcast Ranseur, I'll repeat, uninvited independent Maltese warship trespassing our turf, who merely fired a few warning shots at the station wanted to take all the cake. The cake that rightfully belongs to the Rogues.
That Outcast's name is Dawn-Under-Heaven. I hope we can teach him a lesson.
