Simon Templar;

I'm entirely happy with the Mandalorian Mercenaries using Liberty Military equipment, and ships of Gunboat class and below, at their own discretion. This formal notice is well overdue, but I believe you asked and were given confirmation of this stance privately.

John Stone;

While your reasons would be satisfactory for some weapons or perhaps a fighter, I do not see the reason that it would satisfy the need for a Gunboat. You will need to back up your claims that we fight the same fight by presenting hard evidence of you doing so, either directly or through our bounty board. For the latter, you would have to register with them first.

Nathaniel Carter;

Aside from the small error in your formal application, that being the callsign of the ship in question - you should have just put the name it would appear as, rather than the name it would have been before it becomes a gunboat - I see no problem with your request. You've clearly presented your reasoning and obviously put some thought into your application.

I would however like to say that, for reasons unknown to me, the Liberty Gunboat's turret arcs have been restricted from their previous generous coverage since the time of your application. If you are still interested, then please confirm that.

Since the new Sirius laws only allow scope for us to control our equipment by direct enforcement on the part of our armed forces, our control has been lessened. However, my department is fortunately not being liquidated, as we have come to a solution in this regard.

The request of two gunboats, one now and one later, is a little much for the Republic of Liberty to commit to. Because of this, we will only grant one with the forward gun for now, but once you have proven its usefulness, both to yourself and to us, we will consider releasing a second one into your care.

The cost of this to you will be 20 million credits, payable to the account Ferris.Dufresne .

Please let me know whether this is acceptable to you.

- Andrew Brown, Head of the Liberty Surplus Requisitioning Center.
