Greetings All,

Made a one-way to Rheinland last evening. Took bery from Cardiff to Altona, then doubled back to Stuttgart to spend the night. Trip was uneventful, thankfully.

I should be returning some time today with lux food for New London. Hopefully, the scoundrels will keep off.

Yours,

Alisdair

Good Day!

I returned safely today to New London. The trip was fairly uneventful. Ran across a Hessian light fighter outside Freistadt, but he kept his distance, and wisely so. Came across a couple of Liberty-made vessels around Freeport 1; nothing I can think of explains that anomaly. Nevertheless, lux food delivered at New London for a tidy profit.

Stay save out there.

Always at your service,

Alisdair

RE: Trade Report

Hallo everyone,

After launching from New London this evening, I flew to Douglas to make my favorite run. Needless to say, my running of Polymers to Holstein, Fertilizers to Stuttgart, and Luxury Foods back to New London was completely uneventful. Fertilizers from Canterbury to Planet Cambridge was also very uneventful. Of course, this is discounting the Corsairs, Hessians, and Alisdair.

I must say that I first entered Omega-3 with great apprehension. I was alone and was warned of both Corsairs and Hessians waiting on the lanes. However, the path from the Cambridge Jump Gate to Douglas Station was clear, and the same can be said for the path to Omega-7. From there, it was clear sailing until Planet Stuttgart.

At Stuttgart, though, I noticed a familiar ship signing into the comm system. The Trafalgar and our prestigious founder, Alisdair Buchanan, were in New York. I greeted him heartily. It was a great stroke of luck to see him. He seemed worried at the amount of pirates in Liberty, though. Thankfully they were occupied in skirmishes with the local authorities, and so he made it safely to Bretonia.

Thankfully for me, the Corsairs in Omega-3 were also occupied. I don't know with what, but, they didn't disrupt the lane when I moved through. Quite auspicious. We met in orbit of Planet Cambridge and chatted for a wee bit, but, as my shift had already been going, I decided to retire and we were unable to convoy.

A good day for Gateway,
~Gunther Koch

RE: Trade Report

Good Day Everyone!

Took a nice jaunt in the Trafalgar to Rheinland today - bery to Altona and lux food back. However, this time I took the lux food past NL to Curacao, where it sells for 600/unit more. Two extra systems for 2.4mil+ extra...I felt it was worth it. I then hopped over to Toronto Station for some platinum to take back to Thames. A nice 16.2mil run.

I also have been in communication with the Sirius Relief Foundation, and their current flagship, the Helping Hand. I may be entering into a more serious relationship with them in the near future, but I wanted you to be aware of our relations so that you, too, might be able to lend SRF a helping hand, or at least a kind word and an extra eye now and then. Despite their altruistic mission, they are often targeted by pirates.

In any event, a good working day again!

Yours in friendship,

Alisdair

RE: Attack in NY / Gunther Koch Retirement

Good Day Friends,

I have two items today:

1. I will be filing a formal complaint with the Liberty Navy today after gross negligence on their part last evening in New York. Despite having not one, but FOUR LN fighters on ONE pirate just inside California form NY, two Xenos were just inside New York causing all sorts of havoc. As soon as I entered New York, the Xenos attempted to stop me. I immediately radioed for help to the LN, but none responded. Thankfully, there was an independent navy cruiser, SLICE, who intervened, along with several other generous and brave passers-by. We all fought intensely all the way from the NY-CA JG until I could dock at West Point. At his point, I unleashed a torrent of complaint at LN, telling them to get in NY to assist in the battle still going on outside the station. "Make me," was the LN pilot's reply.

Needless to say, I am thoroughly disgusted, and will be notifying both our governments today.


2. It is with a heavy heart that I announce the retirement of our good friend, Gunther Koch, from Gateway service today. Gunther has been there just about since the beginning, was our first Trade Director, and helped get the company on its feet after our reorganization. He proved both wise and competent in all of his work. More than that, however, is that he was and is a good friend. I will miss him greatly.


Yours,

Alisdair

RE: Omega 7

hello everyone, i hope i find you all well,

During several trade runs to rhineland i have come across severel Colonial Remnant ships in the Omega 7 system. Acording to my database they are allies of the Corsair's and i have been quite nervous around them. However, i did send a message to the Foriegn Office on New london and they have assured me that they should not pose a threat to Gateway ships and that they are in discussions regarding a cease fire from prior incidents with them in the Tau's.
If you do recieve threats or actual attacks from them please send a message to either me or the Foriegn Office direct and to the IMG who they seem to be helping out.

yours aye

RE: New ship and Captain

Hello everyone, hope i find you all well,

Firstly, a very warm welcome to the Gateway family to Captain Tyler Corgan of the Gateway)Mayfair.
He is all set up in a shiney new Percheron and already plying the trade lanes. If you see him make sure to stop and say hello.Even better, join up in convoy, its been way too long for those.

Secondly, the Gateway)G.I.C.C. ( Gateway Interstellar Conference Centre ) has launched from Planet New London and is on her shakedown flight. She is a Bretonian Royal Liner kitted out to visit systems in Sirius to bolster relations with our friends and allies. Also to advertise Gateway's presence as the premier transport company of Bretonia. It will be my honour to fly this remarkable ship to promote Gateway's expertise.

Yours aye

Topic: Trade Report

Thanks for the introduction Mr McDonald, it was a pleasure to have flown with you and as you know I am extremely grateful for your assistance in setting up the Percheron (not a bad ship I must say!).

I've been frequenting the Bretonian and Rhineland systems carrying mainly Gold from the Battleship Hood to Ingoldstat station in Munich in what has been an abundance of very hassle-free trips, just the way we like it with minimal pirate activities.

I am pleased to report a pleasing increase in my profits; trade is good and I look forward to re-imbursing my benefactor.

Look forward to seeing you all in the trade lanes soon and I hope you are all sharing in the same prosperity as me.

Captain T Corgan.
