Corsair Court

[Tailsdoll]

Name: Jonathan Hamilton Cook
Offenders: ThisIsSparta! / ECG|ADM***Evolution
Laws Broken: Rule 12) Transport of useful materials to Corsair bases is to be encouraged. Piracy or taxation of these goods should be reasonable and non-prohibitive if these materials are being carried to Corsair bases.
"Useful materials" includes raw metals, fuel, ship components, weapons or weapon components etc. (kos/hostiles should be destroyed)
Context: Greetings, esteemed Elders of the Corsair Council.

Our group have recently contacted with your Empire in regards to shipping arrangements, and things began with a bang. Literally. Obviously, I felt the need to seek better judgement.

While I understand that The Outer Project was not under direct contract with any Corsair organization (which we are currently) at the time of this incident, I must protest against the actions taken against us by two of your pilots. As can be seen in the evidence provided below, not one, but TWO transports filled with supplies destined to the Empire (namely Platinum, an incredibly useful building material) were destroyed without so much as a warning, attempt at actual communication or at the very damn least an attempt at piracy. I point towards the information provided above as to why exactly that is a punishable offense. As a final point, I'd like to point out that my comrade's ship was destroyed by a battleship, apparently flown by an admiral, without so much as a single word. Quite beffiting behaviour. Might I also add that these events took place BEFORE the ultimatum launched by your Council of Elders regarding the Omicron Theta and Omega-41 systems. As a footnote.

Below are several guncam recordings managed to be retrieved by one of our other transports as it passed by with a shipment of Food Rations:
