**Transmitting message to Congress members**
Jack?! Been a while since I've heard your voice on my comms! Thankfully I'm back in action, a linked to the proper channels again.
I've went over this transmission, and I do agree, it is a long shot taking that travel in such a.......'fine' ship. After going over the scans that were forwarded to us, I raise speculation as to how outfitted this ship was. It could very well of had top of the line armor upgrades installed. And not to raise mistrust in our dear lawfuls, but did the cardimine really make it all the way to Rochester, without the pilot ejecting it first? Yes, a stupid question, and one that shouldn't even be thought of. All that money going to waste is unlikely.
I do wonder who the onlooker was at Rochester. I will be moving my assets around, and be taking a trip around to see what I can come up with. Perhaps I can find the supplier....
As for now, do you have any requests on what I should do when I 'bump' into the Rhino?

Congressmen,
It is time to gather at Invergordon for another council meeting. Those of you whose attendance is required know who you are. The rest of you are invited to be present as well as this one will be of great importance.
Today, we made a delivery of a load of boron to Stokes. We heard they needed it to make new hull panels and the like. As my brother and his wife are patriotic Bretonians and all, we were worried about Stokes ability to produce.
When we arrived at the planet, we spoke with a member of the Armed Forces who related some other chaos about the situation. Why such a ship is trying to destroy Stokes and/or executive civilians, I'm not sure.

Thank you for the report Roger, we've been getting rumors but this is the first confirmed report. I know I'm not exactly Kogen's favorite person, but this is a little extreme even for one of his tantrums. I see also that you've already reported the incident to the Bretonian authorities although I find the response a little strange. You know some of our members actually have seats on Parliament? Maybe it's time for them to start earning their pay. I'm on my way to Bretonia now and I'll be on board the Aristotle within twenty four hours. I'll check back in with you when I get there. I'm going to be doing a quick inspection at Trafalgar and then heading to Invergordon for a conference. You should head there too and hand over any evidence you have. Talk to you soon.
**Transmitting message to Congress members** Oh my gosh this was a bit horrifying! Was visiting family in Newcastle, and decided to take the "short way" home through Tau-31 and when I thought I was safe at home, I was being blasted by a darned battleship!!! Where the heck did it come from?! I had gotten the previous transmissions, and how can this be happening?! Why isnt the Armed Forces taking that hunk of rice down??? I'm going to contact all my associates to have as many supplies sent into Bretonia so hopefully they can push the Kusarian back into the Tau's.

That's another confirmed report. I guess we're going to have to address the Bretonians about this. I do want to make one thing clear though. I know some of you are Bretonian citizens, but most of us are guests in house Bretonia just as much as the Exiles are. That means we should show a little respect to our hosts. Please do not start any trouble with these guys. Defend yourselves if you have to, but remember, there is a greater threat out there.
The reports coming in are true, a Kusari battleship is stationed right outside Stokes Mining Station and as I got closer, to try and dock on Stokes to do business, it started to fire.
Even though I had not fired a shot, or been given any warning and even pleaded for them to halt their firing, the firing continued and the Battleship even launched fighters to target my ship and crew.
It was at this point that I decided that it was no longer viable or fair to place my crew in danger any longer and fled, through the trade lane, back to Leeds. I expect more reports to be coming in future as this is certainly not what I expected to see right outside a mining station.
Greetings Indio Base is now up and running soon with some luck and help I will get a factory online for the good of our group and for our mutual friends. I just need a few things; if anyone ever gets some nomad parts, and a nomad brain I will pay good money for them. 1 million per nomad brain minor 2 million for major and 200k for each fighter. Anyone interested in helping me build this factory will get full shares in profits. Contact me if you are interested.
