NAME: ROBERT JONES
LOCATION: MAGELLAN
SUBJECT: SHIP REQUEST

My name, as seen at the start of this transmission, is Robert Jones. I am a station manager for DSE.
Our station handles exploration and research. On one dinning event, I was detailing the hardships we are encountering, in House space and outside, and someone suggested that your company is building a sturdy, well armed ship, excellent for such endeavours.
I do say that this prospect is quite interesting, since we require something with a bit more bite than the regular Longhorns we use, domestic and in the wild.
May I have some schematics and a price range?

With Great Interest and Enthusiasm,

Robert Jones.

Good afternoon Mr. Jones,

My name is August Molitor, Director for Akutan Production Facility’s Financial Department here in Bering, and I will be handling this communication.

It is nice to hear that news of our vessel has reached even DSE’s meetings. We take pride in what our partnership alongside Kress has produced, and the accomplishments the vessels themselves have achieved both in the Houses and in independent space. I doubt one could find a more capable vessel, given the right crew.

However, I fear your placement in Magellan has led to a few pieces of information lacking. I am informed by Arcetri Station’s Security Officer that Deep Space Engineering’s conduct in the Galileo system has been considered unsatisfactory of late. In addition, due to concerns on proprietary technology aboard the craft, advisors here hold additional problems with such a sale.

As a direct result, Bristol Constructions & Manufacturing will be making no sale of the Bulwark-class Heavy Explorer to Deep Space Engineering at this time.

V/R
MOLITOR, AUGUST
DIRECTOR, AKUTAN FINANCIAL DEPT
