I am contacting you regarding some mis-understanding that the ZA have had with the Corsair Empire and hope you could help us calm the situation down and reach a peaceful conclusion.

The ZA are a group of Zoners based in O-74 who have brought their families and kin to settle down. Though we reside still in our ships we do however have stations which we use for re-supply and repairs.

We try and live in peace but as you know the Omicrons are less than peacful at times.

Would it be possible to discuss the events that lead to this un-fortunate colapse in communications.

The time line of the events i need help with are as follows
-------

Unknown Zoner caused friction in Omicron-Theta-(i have tried on comms to reach him to find out what exactly happened but no luck yet)

Zoner transport, was attacked in Sigma-13 (by unknown pilots who later were acknowledged as Corsairs after scans) and told to hand over 3 million in Sirius Credits and also its cargo, under penalty of death.

ZA Cruiser, attacked in Omicron-Theta by the Sigma-17 Jump Hole

ZA ships mobilised in Sigma-17 and O-74

Unknown cruisers flee to Sigma-17 and are pursued to Sigma-19 Jump Gate and to Sigma-13

ZA Ships enter Sigma-13 and warn shipping of threat, also Rheinland Navy Cruiser that was in the system.

ZA ships are informed that Unknown Ships have entered Rheinland Space.

Pursuit Ends as we have no right to enter house space, or chase down hostile ships in Sigma-13 as its a GMG system. (But a we felt a warning should be given)

ZA scans reveal that those we have pursued have jumped from Frankfurt back to O-Gamma.

ZA ships then make their way to Free-port 9, while entering O-Theta scans reveal a Outcast Capital Ship sat at the Jumphole. He acknowledges us and we him but we continue to free-port 9 without discussing anything with him. Even though he tries to open group comms to us all, we ignore him.(were suspicious the fact that he was there with so many Corsairs around)

One pilot loses his cool after much goading and chases a hostile to the Gamma Jump hole. Other fleet members then follow after he is fired upon.

The hostiles then flee to Gamma, pilots follow then withdraw several minutes later realising their mistake.

Hostiles then in number pursue and start firing once again.

ECG member asks them to cease fire, he is ignored so Ships return fire after one of the ZA ships shields are crippled.

ZA ships move away to calm the situation, hostiles ships pursue and destroy a Neph. The pilot and crew survive by pure luck.

Then it continues for 1 hour more of hit and runs then ceases.

ZA ships hold position near to Free-port 9 to avoid further losses.

If you could please help i would be grateful.

Your humble servant
