Right, this is important everyone, so listen up. It appears that some 'Zoners' seem to think that they are the guardians of House Liberty these days, using cruiser-class vessels to engage us in spite of being warned otherwise.
Now, I am giving a standing order regarding such ships. If you spot any so-called Zoner vessel larger than a gunboat in hostile space, treat it as hostile and engage on sight if you command the capability to do so. They shouldn't be there in capital ships to begin with, so assume they are there to cause harm to our Revolution.
Anything gunboat-sized or smaller may be there for civilian purposes but look upon them with suspicion.
Outside of hostile-controlled space, treat the Zoners as we normally would. Inside hostile, House-controlled, space they are potentially disguised hostiles under a false banner of neutrality and should be treated as such. Anything larger than a gunboat will be terminated.
