For you consideration,

Earlier this cycle, myself and Quiron Lacroix were returning from a training mission deep in our home sector of Omicron Zeta when we encountered two Warhound Brigade fighters stationed right outside of PSP. When asked what their purpose was as to being there, their 'Brigade Master' (if I have that rank correct) Aliester Cooke responded he was on a diplomatic mission to seek us out, which immediately raised my suspicions, as Bounty Hunters rarely seek these kind of relationships.

They asked if we would consider opening up our base and facilities and allow an entire wing of Warhound fighters to post at our star-port. When I asked what the intended benefit would be to Phoenix, he responded that the extra fighter would be able to protect us from future K'hara and Nomad attacks. I pointed out that PSP has been there for quite some time and had repelled some of the most vicious Nomad attacks ever seen. However I will keep my honor of passing along the request, however 'unlikely' it is to be approved. Quiron reminded him not to get his hopes up on the subject as PSP has never been open to anyone but Phoenix Zoners.

He also asked for any research we might have on the Nomad creatures or the Humans they Infect. Quiron pointed out that opportunities to truly study this mysterious race of beings are rare, and I added that the lack of real data concerning Nomad organism's is largely due to the Bounty Hunters (and other groups) restrictions on the movement and possession of collected remains to facilities capable of dissecting them. He denied any knowledge of this...

One more interesting thing we found out in the exchange is that the Warhounds have been using Freeport 11 as a stageing ground for their patrols, not Dabadoru as previously assumed. The Warhounds stated reasoning for this is to be associated with the rest of the Bounty Hunters as little as possible, and to be more approachable to the average civilian seeking assistance.

So I'll leave my observations concerning this request with you, Phoenix Command. But for what its worth, my vote's no....
