From: Weiss Shipping To: '\S/' Starfliers On: Nav Charts Procurement - Weiss Shipping - 01-10-2025

Guten Tag meine Damen und Herren,
My name is Franz Zimmer, and I represent the Imperial Shipping company Weiss Shipping as its current CEO.
Our company is facing increasing difficulties as we expand outside House space on the regular, due to outdated navigational data. Our Gefahrgut division has endeavored to consolidate system scan data or procure it locally, especially but not limited to the Deep Omicrons, however it's at the cost of delivery speed and under high risk.
We've decided to outsource, and you would be our preferred choice. Would Starfliers agree to such an arrangement?
Mit verbindlichen Grüßen,
Franz Zimmer

To: Franz Zimmer, Weiss Shipping Subject: Omicron Job Hmm? A job! A fucking job!
You got me on a good day, though I'm a bit less than thrilled that my work in one particular Omicron System may already be outdated. Don't like repeating my efforts. Since it is a good day, I may take the scenic route out there. Maybe annoy the locals. Which systems did you need? Yeah yeah, Godspeed

Guten morgen Herr Kennedy,
Thank you for the motivated response. In earnest, we need quite a lot of scanner data, and are equally motivated to provide both risk pay and small scale escort.
Primarily we need Omicron Theta and Delta remapped, and have only partial scans on Kappa and Zeta. We are wondering if you can provide detailed scans of Omicron Minor, which we want to stress is especially difficult to navigate. We consider this a high risk region, and would provide risk pay within reason. Alongside the escort offer, we have friendly actors in the region, whom we can contact to help with your protection.
We also want maps on the entirety of the Omega systems, of which we only have data on Omega-11, and would like to explore them with supplying Omicron clients in mind. Whilst mapping possible transport routes for armored frigate transports is imperative, we also have an interest in studying raw material composition in all and any of them, as a courtesy to our Daumann business partners. We would like to negotiate a bonus fee for supplying the data.
Finally it was implied by a trade partner of ours that you have significant information on the Tau systems, as well as Cortez and its neighbors. Alas, we don't fly there regularly, and neither does any Rheinland organisation we can confirm or deny has been there, and on rare occasion, the Rheinland Police. Neither has provided map information of any use to Rheinland as a whole, as such we would rather not fly blind there. In this specific instance, we would prefer to purchase your existing relevant data, and not get involved otherwise.
Mit verbindlichen Grüßen,
Franz Zimmer

To: Franz Zimmer, Weiss Shipping Subject: Nuh-ah-ah! Good lord, man.
Not only did you give me a whole lotta work to do, it seems like you guys didn't even bother to research how we do these things. Lucky the process was put together nicely, otherwise I'd find myself declining jobs, or burning out. Likely the burning out. Read over the little package I sent you. Then we can go from there. The guys upstairs want me to follow this document, I guess this means you should too. Signing Off

Guten tag Herr Kennedy,
Apologies for blunder. An ongoing concentrated supply effort Rheinland-wide has us preoccupied, hence why the sudden request and phrasing. Thanks to these circumstances, the Omicron chart updates are already needed on short notice.
According to the summary, you are capable of exploring and charting Omicron Theta. This would make our current operations much smoother, and we're very eager to begin business.
As such, let us provide details on an initial commission as required. We're expected to plot a course for Theta. To that effect we have finished mapping the Orinoco Cloud, have primarily long range incomplete information on the floating debris clusters between that and Amarus Cloud, of which we have absolutely no information, beside the fact possible threats to convoys originate from its innards and the name. From there we have finished mapping Sectors G/H-5/6, thus feel it can be omitted.
On the other side of the solar system, we are aware of a field of dense matter in B2/3 which has proven difficult to analyze. We are concerned about that specific item the most.
We have long range scanner data on Planet Pygar, and wouldn't need more than a basic update on its current location and objects in its vicinity.
Finally on urgent, but lower, priority are the nebulae observed to the immediate galactic south of the system, and the dense matter field, which seems to be the Sabana Field as per previous charts. Since we received a rather disreputable offer for maps of the nebula in question, we have a suspicion it might hold a objects of significance to pirates or similar bad actors.
In total, this should be a cartography report on Omicron Theta, and an additional detailed report on six individual items within the system? Namely the zone at B2/3, the Amarus Cloud, Napo Cloud, The Sabana Field (?), Planet Pygar, and the debris between the first two, listed by order of priority.
On top of your stated fee, we offer a 40% bonus on that sum for any data you may be able to provide on a short notice (within the day). Already available scanner information will be purchased at your rate, or this one at your convenience. For charts and data of Omicron Theta acquired as of today onwards, we offer additional risk pay of 81% of the total, or we can agree on funding and/or providing escorts on our Weissbank's expense as an our preferred alternative.
Are these terms and the urgent time frame satisfying?
Grüß,
Franz Zimmer

To: Franz Zimmer, Weiss Shipping Subject: Theta That's a lot of words to say you want Omicron Theta done. I can't quite remember how I got there when I was last in no mans land. I'm thinking I'll stop by Tau-37 and slam some creds on the bartender's table at the Freeport, get a reminder. Maybe get a drink.
But first, did you hear about this little tid bit? I'm wanting to win some money first flying fast around a track. And kick the shit out of Orbital while I do it. So if it takes me a while to get out there to Theta, you know why. Once I know what's out there, then our bigger boys and girls who fly the fancy Corvos we have can point there antenna bits at the stuff you want analyzed. I'm only responsible for the mapping part. Let's discuss payment at the end of this. Gotta find out what's out in Theta first. Signing Off

To: Franz Zimmer, Weiss Shipping Subject: Theta is done, pay up Alright, Franz.
Theta is done. If you want a list of bad actors, all I can really point out is to stay clear from the north-west end of the system. Some very unhappy people surrounding a jump hole there. Otherwise, you'll be safe. Oh, and for this, I'd recommend paying after every piece of this overall job. That way there's no problems. For this one, direct the credits to my personal account: '\S/'CEV-Pulsar. The amount is in that little document I gave you earlier. Once you pay up, the charting report is yours. I'll let Albert know that one of our big-boy ships need to go to Theta for the other stuff you want. Now, I will return to my - ah fucking hell. The time is up! Now I can't get a better time at the racetrack! I blame you. Signing Off

Guten abend Herr Kennedy,
Please confirm receiving payment. Thankfully, our accounting department is faster than space-faring vessels, and have informed me the payment was sent as follows:
![[Image: m4ePV3g.png]](https://i.imgur.com/m4ePV3g.png)
We're looking forward to seeing your work, and thank you for your dedication. We will race to review it before requesting anything further.
Speaking of racing, Weiss Shipping has acquired a stock of exotic (to Rheinland) light fighter engines and soon found a client for them specializing in research and development. The mention of Starfliers sparked interest in the client, and she asked me to relay an inquiry to yourself and your organisation.
She's quite curious about your preferred series of models and any tuning practices those undergo under your care. If interests match, I propose an introduction to save all involved much needed time and money.
Mit verbindlichen Grüßen,
Franz Zimmer

To: Franz Zimmer, Weiss Shipping Subject: Payday One million credits... Payday. Now I can kick back and get plenty of drinks from the Freeport! Or, check in with the guys at Orbital, get my feet rubbed or something. Here's the report and the invoice, the second of which I should have issued to you first, but whatever. At least it got done. Enjoy.
Racing... well got you got my ears. To be honest, making me work for the one million was well and truly enough, but the whole racing deal has been a thing for me recently. So I'm willing to use up part of my immediate vacation to see what comes out of this. I can speak for the Starfliers when it comes to racing. Not like my lovely colleagues know how to run a track anyways. Introduce whoever, and we'll get started. Be quick about it, otherwise I will go on my vacation to get my feet rubbed. Seriously.

Hallo again Herr Kennedy,
It brings me joy that you enjoyed the transaction. There will be more once you're back on your feet.
With that in mind, let's dispense with business until you are back, and send you the contact.
The lady in question is named Dr. Luna Kott, a Cambridge hereditary scientist who happens to be in your area currently. We plan to move her from her current residence in Livadia Shipyard to a facility closer to Rheinland where two additional researchers will join her. For the time being, I suggest you contact her to arrange meeting. Just don't use the Freeport for it.
Perhaps Theta Resort would be more to your liking? I hear their expert medicinal procedures include quite the additional service, and we don't want your feet or the locals rubbed the wrong way do we?
Mit verbindlichen Grüßen,
Franz Zimmer
