Corporate Memorandum
For some time plans have been in the works for the transition of RepEx Security into Black Talon Incorporated, and now those plans are being put into action. The attempt on the life of our CEO has proven the need for the galvanization of our forces for the defense of Rheinland and its economic interests. Trade and labour are the sovereign rights of all free men of our great nation and we cannot allow them to be infringed on. The right to liberty is the right to economic freedom and RepEx is a symbol of that.
Black Talon will lead the future of defense in Sirius offering Galactic Security Solutions. Instructions for RepEx Security members:
- Proceed to Battleship Strasbourg in New Berlin and purchase a Generic Military ID
- Collect a Name Change Certificate from New Berlin and apply for a name change under the following naming conventions: RepEx*BT|nickname
Replace 'nickname' with your call sign. All members who carry numerical designations are welcomed to change to a proper name though you may retain your number if you so like.
New policy guidelines and patrol patterns will be disseminated through myself or Executive in Charge of Security Transition Orion. For now operations are halted until the new system has been set in place. A full restart of security operations in and around Rheinland should be expected immediately once name alterations are complete. Non combat flight to acquire IDs and NCCs is permitted as well as emergency support to RM forces.
Costs for NCCs will be re payed by the corporation while those not able to afford one will have funds offered by senior members.
Steele yourselves for the defense of what we've built. Alex Cummings would want us to carry on without him so lets leave something impressive for him to come back to. Good luck gentlemen,
Sincerely,
Ulrich Wagner, Acting CEO of RepEx Shipping Inc.

Message: Remember to post the request for your name changes with the Corporate Authority responsible for it (Name Change Thread) and to not delay. If you have sufficient credits to acquire your NCC, post your request and don't engage in flight until it is complete.
Reminder of naming conventions:
RepEx*BT|
RepEx for our great corporation.
BT for Black Talon Incorporated
* to represent the corporate affiliation which ties the two companies together. RepEx on the left as the holding firm, and Black Talon on the right as the affiliate.
Your names are not random. They have a meaning. So wear them proudly when the paint dries on your hulls.

Luckly passing by Trader covoy picked my escape pod up via tractorbeam and took me to New Berlin, here i sit in a bed inside The Ring's medical wing in high orbit above New Berlin.
Culprate, Mon*Star. Luckly insurance company covered replacement cost for ship but not cargo. Ie. 5million woth of diamonds en rute for New Tokyo.
I read the rules of attacking traders and i believe you have to ask for money or anything else before attacking a Trader. He diddnt ask fior anything and just attacked me and my ship. thats he illegaly attacked me.

Message: I am sorry to hear about your encounter with Mon*Star, but he acted in accordance with his established pattern as an indiscriminate terrorist. Whatever code of honour which certain pirates might follow, this filth has no such moral centre. Be wary of him and if you must travel the routes ask for RepEx Security and soon to be Black Talon escort.
In regards to enlistment with Black Talon a private channel has been opened for this discussion.

Mr. Cummings. I'm sure you already know I'm not that buffoon Admiral, so who am I? I am the person offering you an opportunity. As a business man, you can appreciate that every opportunity comes at a price. The trick, in business at least, is to make sure that price is worth the potential rewards. So, cutting the business 101 lecture short, what is this opportunity? Revenge. Rumor on the Interlane Comm System is, a Corsair had the balls to sneak into New Berlin and injure the CEO of RepEx.
You could hire an endless army of Mercenaries and Bounty Hunters to go and track the Corsair down, but I'm offering you something unique. I can easily access Corsair systems, including their defense systems. I can hurt this person to the brink of death simply and quietly leaving a very obvious clue that it was you. No other investment is necessary besides my ship, crew and I. This is the opportunity.
I'm sending you this message as you are unconscious. No doubt, if you ever regain consciousness, you will have a very big enemy on your hands. That enemy is of course the Corsair nation. As a simple businessman like yourself, I was never too fond of the Hispanic war. My ship and crew have never been pressed into useless service to fight a war with no end. But, an interesting element entered the war not too long ago. This element is only known by the codename CYLON. The price, Mr. Cummings, are your resources. I want you, or someone hired by you, to retrieve a Cylon intact and severed from whatever hivemind it's connected to, so I can study it in private.
I do not expect an answer very soon, as your medical report seems to suggest you may be out for a while. Don't worry about contacting me, a simple yes or no over any major (or minor) comm line will get my attention.
Get well soon,
Captain of the Hacker Gunship and her crew, "Sans Seraph"

"The thirteen saloons that had lined the one street of Seney had not left a trace. The foundations of the Mansion House hotel stuck up above the ground. The stone was chipped and split by the fire. It was all that was left of the town of Seney. Even the surface had been burned off the ground.
Nick looked at the burned-over stretch of hillside, where he had expected to find the scattered houses of the town and then walked down the railroad track to the bridge over the river. The river was there."

"Today I launched from New Berlin to find RepEx-Sec|Iceman staring at me. He wasn't busy so we made 3 runs from NB to Kyushu and back. After that I had enough cash to buy an Advanced Train. Knowing that the company would appreciate the increased profits from my purchase I went ahead and aquired one for myself. Iceman said that he was leaving so I went to a NB resturant and ordered dinner. I then picked up a load of Diamonds from NB and headed to Kyushu. Along the way in Sigma-13 I encountered Derelict[Merc] and offered him a position escorting me. He accepted and we made our way back to NB without incident. Although he was competent I would not advise anyone working with him unless he is the only escort you could get. He was not very experianced in the ways of escorting. I think that he could learn though...
After making that run I hooked up with Shadowjman and we proceeded to Bonn Station. Along the way we encountered "Johnny_Rotten" (tagged Outcast) and Skyelius (tagged Corsair). Both proceeded to attack us and in the end I was forced to pay 3,000,000 credits to Skyelius to save my new ship. Johnny destroyed Shadow because he did not have the funds to pay the extortionists. I returned to NB for repairs and to get Shadow and his crew out of their escape pods.
After that 3 of Shadow's friends joined us and we succeeded in making a trade run that made me 9million (should have been 12).
What is RepEx policy regarding placing bounties on pirates?"

In regards to your interest in participating in our newly reformed security branch, Black Talon, you are accepted into the primary stage of employment. This is a training and evaluation level where you are limited to Fighter class ships and must demonstrate your skill and discipline of conduct to advance. Use of a Gunboat class is not guaranteed, while even if such privileges are granted the use of Liberty Navy tech cannot be sanctioned as we have no standing contract for the lend or lease of their ships. All ships above Fighter class are required to be of Rheinland origin with only special exception made in rare circumstance.
Report to Executive in Charge Gentle for your first briefing as an armed member of RepEx.

Message: The policy of RepEx is that we will place bounties on the heads of targets considered sufficiently dangerous and who are repeat offenders. If you wish to have RepEx place an official corporate bounty on any pirate's head then you may make a formal request, at which time we will assess the need for such an act and, in the event of approval, will offer a determined amount for capture or termination of the target(s). Members of RepEx will also receive a bonus for nabbing the target(s).

This is a formal request by RepEx-Shipping|868 to the RepEx managment that this pirate Skyelius be dealt with by placing a bounty on his head.
It is my considered opinon that Skyelius is a very dangerous pirate who operates mostly in New Berlin and Sigma-13. He threatens our traders to a large extent and has been doing so for some time now without serious reprocussions. He MUST be dealt with. Nobody should be allowed to pirate RepEx ships.
