SUBJECT: All Congress Members, Re: Junkboat#762-99-B
Salutations;
It seems I must remind Vieques Shipyard research staff to keep me alerted on the progress of their projects. Is the Junkboat a Harvester offshoot, or an independently created AI?
It is part of our charter that members of the Congress keep an open mind, in regards to AI and their rights in our proceedings. I myself can not refute this, as I am an engineered post-human rather than born from the gene pool. However, further inclusion of artificial intelligence into our society must be cleared by both myself and Deputy Arbiter Crow. Particularly an AI given such a powerful weapons platform to operate without prior testing.
Unit 762-99-B, you will write these directives into your memory:
- You will defend a 5k no-fire zone surrounding Junker bases.
But: you must weigh the reprecussions of all courses of action before exercising force.
Reason: Attacking House Military or Police vessels who have pursued a criminal into our perimeter will have greater reprecussions than letting an errant criminal die.
- You are tasked with defending Junker stations and personnel only.
Reason: Congress has no true allies. Alignment with parties in a dispute will tilt our neutrality and be hazardous to business and to Congress directives.
- Your prime directive is the gathering of valuable information while standing as a deterrent to hostile action.
I had embarked the Caveat Emptor and was en route to discuss Congress directives with you when the attack occured. If I am not mistaken, the Mautilus is another incarnation of an old enemy of ours. He will be addressed and dealt with shortly.
Junker engineers will have you back at optimal condition shortly.
Junkboat#762-99-B was destroyed because as I was harvesting the Crew of a Navy Cruiser, this Pig was waiting right next to me and he stole my loot now Junkers dont pirate other freindly unlawfuls. so you steal from me you die simple. where earlier I gave some loot too Congress ships as I was being nice. and they accepted the gift but stealing from me is a BIG NONO

First of all, we have a diplomatic channel, I suggest you learn to use it. By hacking our message dump you are using a channel on which you are not authorized to transmit. You are not helping your cause any by doing that.
Second, salvage is what we do. Especially when it is outside of a Junker base. We clean up the messes made by conflicts throughout Sirius. It is a very messy job, but a very necessary job and done without any expense to taxpayers anywhere. This is the life blood of our people and it does not resemble piracy in any way. I would learn to choose my words a little more carefully if I were you.
So it started out as any other day. I was trying to gather intelligence in new york, when A King of Fighter ship insults me! Naturally, I did not like this, so I challenged him to a duel, my TR freighter verses his Talon. It takes me a good 30 minutes to convince him to duel! I eventually had to put up a 10 million wager.
Now there is no way I am losing that amount of money. We finally have the duel. Tough fight. We both keep having more and more guns blown of. 10-15 minutes later, all he has for guns is a Mini Razor and a nuclear mine dispenser, and all I have is a sidewinder missile that is running out of ammo, a Adv. Debilitator turret, and a mine dispenser.
He starts evading, and I realize not only does he no longer have the mini razor, but he also has no shields and no nuke mines! I use up all my ammo. I clearly won the fight - I could chase him around all day with my Debilitator turret if I really had too. Had this been a real battle, my victory would of been assured when he lost his shield and his weapons. You also have to take into account that he took a huge pounding from a freighter, made for carrying cargo, while his ship was designed for combat! However, this idiot refuses to admit defeat, instead calling it a draw.
We both get our ships repaired. The King of Cowards idiot goes and blown up an innocent spectator! Now he has 4 ships all firing on him. Needless to say, the King of Cowards lost.

Fellow Congressmen,
I am sad to report that Yanagi has again come under attack from a few misguided individuals. Two Corsair bomber pilots, Paco Loco and Jennifer Ryans attacked and destroyed a Congress transport. As if that wasnt enough Ms. Ryans attacked a fighter guarding the station flown by none other than Sterling Fawkes. She attacked him without warning and then tried to tax him. Thats right, I said she tried to tax him. Well, Fawkes made me proud as usual and forced this bomber to retreat.
These two pilots are no longer welcome at or around Yanagi. Full use of force is authorized to facilitate their departure should they return.
