Message start:

Good day Weiss Shipping,

My name is Jeff Simpson, a Freelancer working with the Interstellar Transit organization these days.

I was recently made aware that our founder, Jake Donovan, made contact with your faction in New Berlin recently while each was running their routes. Unfortunately, as much as he enjoys making introductions to new groups that we would like to begin trading with, he's occupied in Gallia with some technical inspections to his vessel that were scheduled.

However, as the administrator of the Emerson Supply station in Hudson that was mentioned during his conversation with your ship captain (attached below), it is a pleasure to meet you - and I hope we can work out some contracts today to get business between us flowing!

Now that Emerson Supply is setup and actively trading, we are experiencing some shortfalls in a few more distant commodities that aren't available in adjacent House Space.

It was my hope that we can entice your captains in Imperial Shipping to deliver 20,000 units of Super Alloys to our station - at a timeline of your choosing. We need them, but traders will find other sources until we have them, so this definitely is not a rush order.

Currently the price on station is 120 cr/unit - please let us know if this is reasonable and acceptable under this contract.

As well, we've taken note on our routes of your recently deployed station in New Berlin - please let us know if there are any regular materials that we can provide to assist supply of your bases needs.

I look forward to your response and hope this will be the first of many successful contracts with your faction!

Sincerely,

Jeff Simpson

[07.03.2025 13:38:07] =IT=Mercury: So how does it handle?
[07.03.2025 13:38:28] Weiss]GG-Abendrot: It's like a hegemon basically. Always be weary of the drag.

[07.03.2025 13:39:22] Weiss]GG-Abendrot: A good mention is that it supports bigger additions.
[07.03.2025 13:39:27] =IT=Mercury: I know your fleet is likely pretty busy these days, but are you taking contracts?
[07.03.2025 13:39:59] Weiss]GG-Abendrot: Depends. If you want to reach out to us you should do so via sending a transmission.
[07.03.2025 13:40:36] Weiss]GG-Abendrot: We usually handle things that aren't needed in huge bulks.
[07.03.2025 13:40:36] =IT=Mercury: Alright, I shall! We have a new installation operating out of nearby Hudson that may need some Rheinland goods from time to tim
[07.03.2025 13:40:38] =IT=Mercury: time
[07.03.2025 13:40:56] Weiss]GG-Abendrot: Hudson? Well I hope the Guild is fine with that.
[07.03.2025 13:41:07] =IT=Mercury: Oh, I understand - our organization only handles the smaller contracts ourselves where possible.
[07.03.2025 13:41:35] =IT=Mercury: So far we've had no negative feedback about our neutral presence.
[07.03.2025 13:41:56] Weiss]GG-Abendrot: Well, smaller contracts usually yield better. - That is good to hear. Sirius needs more Traders and less Pirates these days.
[07.03.2025 13:42:46] Weiss]GG-Abendrot: I see that you are trading in engines?
[07.03.2025 13:43:39] =IT=Mercury: Oh, that. *laugh* That's merely a project I'm working on with a contact elsewhere. I like to tinker with them lately.
[07.03.2025 13:44:15] Weiss]GG-Abendrot: I get that. My workshop looks similar. Everyone just talks armaments usually but engines are the real driving force.
[07.03.2025 13:44:45] =IT=Mercury: Yes! Like minds, here!
[07.03.2025 13:45:35] =IT=Mercury: I'm well versed on the Sirian standard models, but need training from others on the different varities out there. I have the

[07.03.2025 13:47:06] =IT=Mercury: Nice, good to know. I'll check that out!
[07.03.2025 13:47:24] =IT=Mercury: Well, I should let you get back to your routes. Expect a com from our group!
[07.03.2025 13:47:37] Weiss]GG-Abendrot: Or if you feel daring a tripp to Roussilion, Sournia has their own type as well. - Safe travels to you as well.
