New accusations
I was lucky enough to meet a Zoner and two Auxesians in Delta today who both agreed on one accusation: The Core was at fault for activating an NEMP bomb.
Now, Auxesia is about to send us evidence for that, we need to compare it with the evidence of the Core and decide which side we believe, if it's true that the Core itself is responsible for the skirmish, we should talk with Herr Daniels once more, the case is below.
[13.01.2017 19:04:39] (SolarR[R]Spirit.Walker: Guardian Omicron 1: Confirming vector lock on, target Nauru confirmed.
[13.01.2017 19:04:50] BDM|U-99: Hofmann: Zoner, do you have a moment?
[13.01.2017 19:05:15] (SolarR[R]Spirit.Walker: Ash: Hmm? What is it officer? *she motioned to her marines off camera who seemed to be preparing for something*
[13.01.2017 19:05:30] BDM|U-99: Hofmann: My name is Hofmann, Flotillenadmiral of the BDM.
[13.01.2017 19:06:03] (SolarR[R]Spirit.Walker: Ash: Nice to meet you sir, Ashley Harper, Homestar Runner of the Solar Runners.
[13.01.2017 19:06:19] BDM|U-99: Hofmann: I am here to find out about the freeport incident.
[13.01.2017 19:06:36] BDM|U-99: Hofmann: You seem to be the right person to adress for that.
[13.01.2017 19:07:02] (SolarR[R]Spirit.Walker: Ash: *Ashley rubs her temples* You would be correct, now before I start blaming the Core, they are only part of the problem...
[13.01.2017 19:07:23] BDM|U-99: Hofmann: And what is it then?
[13.01.2017 19:07:28] (SolarR[R]Spirit.Walker: Ash: And when I say that, it seems one of their 'commanders' decided to get...external help to attack the freeport..
[13.01.2017 19:07:53] BDM|U-99: Hofmann: Guten Tag, Bin.
[13.01.2017 19:08:04] (SolarR[R]Spirit.Walker: Ash: Dan, their guildmaster is not to blame, but rather one of his underlings who got the nomads help to attack us..and how
[13.01.2017 19:08:06] Core|Binary.101: Bin: Greetings.
[13.01.2017 19:08:19] (SolarR[R]Spirit.Walker: would we know this? Jess decided to outright tell us
[13.01.2017 19:08:27] BDM|U-99: Hofmann: What the...an Osiris?
[13.01.2017 19:08:38] A/)-ACV-Andraste: ?: Mhm.
[13.01.2017 19:08:49] (SolarR[R]Spirit.Walker: Ash: *She glances back and nods quietly* Not an Order one, so not really a problem..
[13.01.2017 19:09:26] BDM|U-99: Hofmann: *He looks at the Osiris with a suspicious glance*
[13.01.2017 19:09:46] (SolarR[R]Spirit.Walker: Ash: To put it bluntly as I can sir, Core captain jess had the help of the nomads to attack the freeport, to even go out of her
[13.01.2017 19:09:57] (SolarR[R]Spirit.Walker: way to call them friends during the attack and taunt us later about it in a comm..
[13.01.2017 19:10:05] A/)-ACV-Andraste: L: Oh. We're talking about Fillian again?
[13.01.2017 19:10:12] (SolarR[R]Spirit.Walker: Ash: Correct captain
[13.01.2017 19:10:15] BDM|U-99: Hofmann: *He types domething down on one of his screens*
[13.01.2017 19:10:40] A/)-ACV-Andraste: L: Well the Zoner isn't lying. Missing Kusari war vessels don't just reappear .
[13.01.2017 19:10:57] BDM|U-99: Hofmann: So, by your words, the Core and the Nomads both attacked the freeport together?
[13.01.2017 19:11:06] A/)-ACV-Andraste: L: Yeah.
[13.01.2017 19:11:12] (SolarR[R]Spirit.Walker: Ash: Thats the sum of it, yes.
[13.01.2017 19:11:29] BDM|U-99: Hofmann: Noted...
[13.01.2017 19:11:51] A/)-ACV-Andraste: L: I tried to warn your superiors about The Core the first time.
[13.01.2017 19:12:25] (SolarR[R]Spirit.Walker: Ash: Yet to see them use the help of the nomads and taunt the dead was just...
[13.01.2017 19:12:44] BDM|U-99: Hofmann: Hold on, there is no proof of your statement so judging our relation with the Core is something you can't do.
[13.01.2017 19:13:01] BDM|U-99: Hofmann: I might as well warn you about the Order, since you must be close tied.
[13.01.2017 19:13:04] A/)-ACV-Andraste: L: On the contrary. We recorded the entire thing.
[13.01.2017 19:13:07] A/)-ACV-Andraste: L: PFffffft.
[13.01.2017 19:13:30] BDM|U-99: Hofmann: Then you should use that to prove your accusation.
[13.01.2017 19:13:44] (SolarR[R]Spirit.Walker: Ash: Mister Hofmann was it?
[13.01.2017 19:13:50] BDM|U-99: Hofmann: Ja. *He nods*
[13.01.2017 19:13:52] A/)-ACV-Andraste: L: No thanks. I'd rather not be close to the second iteration of a wannabe Omicron Empire like The Order.
[13.01.2017 19:14:06] (SolarR[R]Spirit.Walker: Ash: The Auxiesan here would know more about the attack on the Freeport then I would to be honest, as far as we Zoners
[13.01.2017 19:14:21] (SolarR[R]Spirit.Walker: saw and heard, it was the Core that called upon the nomads to intilize it
[13.01.2017 19:14:33] BDM|U-99: Hofmann: Well then, Auxesian, you're of my interest then.
[13.01.2017 19:15:08] A/)-ACV-Andraste: L: We were in the process of withdrawing our peacekeeping support out here due to The Zoners starting to aggrovate-
[13.01.2017 19:15:12] A/)-ACV-Andraste: Further violence from The Core.
[13.01.2017 19:15:21] BDM|U-99: Hofmann: And then?
[13.01.2017 19:15:36] A/)-ACV-Andraste: L: Our flagship recorded a group of Core Vessels accompanied by what turned out to be some Kusarian warships-
[13.01.2017 19:15:50] A/)-ACV-Andraste: Approaching the freeport with the intent of attacking. The NEMP device was then detonated.
[13.01.2017 19:16:05] A/)-ACV-Andraste: L: Following that it was a combination of Nomad and missing craft hitting everything that moved.
[13.01.2017 19:16:28] (SolarR[R]Spirit.Walker: Ash: The entire Freeport defense force was crushed by appearing nomadic forces.
[13.01.2017 19:16:30] A/)-ACV-Andraste: L: We ended up fighting a few of them just the other day alongside a Core fighter wing.
[13.01.2017 19:17:03] BDM|U-99: Hofmann: As for what Herr Daniels told me, he did not know what exactly they were affiliated with either.
[13.01.2017 19:17:31] A/)-ACV-Andraste: L: So we've learned in our investigation. We sat by and watched Guildmaster Daniels and Fillian beat each other to near death.
[13.01.2017 19:17:39] A/)-ACV-Andraste: L: Or - Rather, listened to it.
[13.01.2017 19:18:01] A/)-ACV-Andraste: L: We assumed it was an internal power struggle about the matter.
[13.01.2017 19:18:10] A/)-ACV-Andraste: L: They published an article to point the fingers elsewhere.
[13.01.2017 19:18:25] BDM|U-99: Hofmann: So by your words, the Core started the attack.
[13.01.2017 19:18:52] (SolarR[R]Spirit.Walker: Ash: The Zoners didn't engage until the bomb went off, at which point civil control on the defense fleet broke down
[13.01.2017 19:19:23] BDM|U-99: Hofmann: So the NEMP bomb was the reason this whole thing started, I thought it was activated later.
[13.01.2017 19:19:28] A/)-ACV-Andraste: L: Initially, the conflict started when two Zoner vessels got involved with a skirmish on the Order side.
[13.01.2017 19:19:45] A/)-ACV-Andraste: L: When the Core pressured for their exemption from Zoner law, the Confederation began to discuss it.
[13.01.2017 19:19:57] (SolarR[R]Spirit.Walker: Ash: If I may.
[13.01.2017 19:20:00] A/)-ACV-Andraste: L: Unfortunately during that time, The Core took it upon themselves to begin attacking non-involved parties.
[13.01.2017 19:20:09] (SolarR[R]Spirit.Walker: Ash: We actually agreed to turn the captains over, which is why the IRG was there...
[13.01.2017 19:20:10] A/)-ACV-Andraste: L: One carrier dubbed the Fianna came under fire because of it.
[13.01.2017 19:21:33] (SolarR[R]Spirit.Walker: Ash: But yes, when the bomb went off, the tention between us and the Core finally broke and the defense fleet engaged the Core
[13.01.2017 19:21:44] (SolarR[R]Spirit.Walker: as we were at first warned it was a Core bomb, till Jess spoke out
[13.01.2017 19:21:50] BDM|U-99: Hofmann: Hmm...Herr Daniels said something about Zoners breaking their laws.
[13.01.2017 19:22:14] (SolarR[R]Spirit.Walker: Ash: We were moving goods to repair the station which they class as illegal, yes.
[13.01.2017 19:22:31] BDM|U-99: Hofmann: So the Core had a reason to shoot.
[13.01.2017 19:22:40] BDM|U-99: Hofmann: The bomb was apparently not by the Core.
[13.01.2017 19:22:41] A/)-ACV-Andraste: L: The Core began to attack relief effort convoys, consisting of medical transports and supply efforts.
[13.01.2017 19:23:40] BDM|U-99: Hofmann: Whoever activated the bomb is responsible for the current skirmish.
[13.01.2017 19:23:58] (SolarR[R]Spirit.Walker: Ash: Correct. However, the first person to take the call, was a Core captain...
[13.01.2017 19:24:19] BDM|U-99: Hofmann: The whole situation is basically a "who reacted faster".
[13.01.2017 19:24:21] (SolarR[R]Spirit.Walker: Ash: Apparently she called in friends to do her dirty work..whatever that means
[13.01.2017 19:25:31] BDM|U-99: Hofmann: This skirmish will continue for now then...since nobody can prove the other side is primarily responsible.
[13.01.2017 19:25:37] (SolarR[R]Spirit.Walker: Ash: As I said, the Auxiesan would perhaps know the captain and details as to why they did it...
[13.01.2017 19:25:45] A/)-ACV-Andraste: L: There's at least one thing we can all agree on.
[13.01.2017 19:26:01] A/)-ACV-Andraste: L: Had Arcadia and the Iona not gotten involved with The Order, this likely wouldn't have happened.
[13.01.2017 19:26:14] BDM|U-99: Hofmann: *he chuckles* I know those....
[13.01.2017 19:26:29] (SolarR[R]Spirit.Walker: Ash: This is true, but for the Core to go as far as to ask the nomads to bomb a Freeport is just..sick
[13.01.2017 19:26:34] A/)-ACV-Andraste: L: So do we. Arcadia is wanted for assaulting Admiral McIntire of the Bretonian armed Forces.
[13.01.2017 19:26:40] A/)-ACV-Andraste: L: It wouldn't be the first time, Zoner.
[13.01.2017 19:26:41] BDM|U-99: Hofmann: I doubt they asked the nomads to do that.
[13.01.2017 19:26:57] (SolarR[R]Spirit.Walker: Ash: *When Hofmann said that, Ashley held up a finger*
[13.01.2017 19:27:28] A/)-ACV-Andraste: L: The Core don't practice the rules of war as we'd know them. They target civilians, make undersided deals...
[13.01.2017 19:27:32] (SolarR[R]Spirit.Walker: Ash: Jessiable in a comm to the Zoners said she had friends attack our freeport, and later one when confronted said it was her
[13.01.2017 19:27:34] (SolarR[R]Spirit.Walker: job.
[13.01.2017 19:28:01] BDM|U-99: Hofmann: Do you have reliable evidence of the Core being assisted by nomad forces?
[13.01.2017 19:28:16] BDM|U-99: Hofmann: The Core might have ways that seem unnatural.
[13.01.2017 19:28:31] BDM|U-99: Hofmann: But Nomads are not known for their alliance with humans.
[13.01.2017 19:28:54] (SolarR[R]Spirit.Walker: Ash: This is true but we, the Zoners at least, can't fully confirm if Jessibell is telling the truth or not.
[13.01.2017 19:29:01] A/)-ACV-Andraste: L: I do.
[13.01.2017 19:29:04] (SolarR[R]Spirit.Walker: Ash: Oh?
[13.01.2017 19:29:20] A/)-ACV-Andraste: L: Just the other day, two known indoctrinated Kusarian vessels aided them against our fighters.
[13.01.2017 19:29:21] BDM|U-99: Hofmann: Is that so?
[13.01.2017 19:29:38] (SolarR[R]Spirit.Walker: Ash: Three infected ones, I recall yes...
[13.01.2017 19:29:40] A/)-ACV-Andraste: L: One of which is believed to have been the one who had sent the initial transmission.
[13.01.2017 19:30:02] BDM|U-99: Hofmann: I need that evidence over the neural net.
[13.01.2017 19:30:31] A/)-ACV-Andraste: L: I could forward it directly to Koch, or Enfield.
[13.01.2017 19:30:31] BDM|U-99: Hofmann: So far, I have the testimony of 3 groups.
[13.01.2017 19:30:50] (SolarR[R]Spirit.Walker: Ash: If you wish Auxiesan, you'd be better off doing it as you got more intel then we Zoners do
[13.01.2017 19:30:56] BDM|U-99: Hofmann: They are busy right now, send it to me.
[13.01.2017 19:31:20] A/)-ACV-Andraste: L: Very well. I'll compile the necessary data and have it delivered as soon as we're freed up.
[13.01.2017 19:31:48] BDM|U-99: Hofmann: Gut, a lot of paperwork...I hope this comes to an end, the BDM has a bad position in all this.
[13.01.2017 19:32:15] (SolarR[R]Spirit.Walker: Ash: As for us Zoner's...the Core might of attacked the freeport..but there's another objective in mind...
[13.01.2017 19:32:26] A/)-ACV-Andraste: L: The same objective they've always had.
[13.01.2017 19:32:28] A/)-ACV-Andraste: L: Control.
[13.01.2017 19:32:47] (SolarR[R]Spirit.Walker: Ash: No, I mean Finn...
[13.01.2017 19:33:11] BDM|U-99: Hofmann: Well...we can't involve ourselves too deep, this was meant to be simply for clearing the situation but...
[13.01.2017 19:33:24] BDM|U-99: Hofmann: So many different terstimonys.
[13.01.2017 19:33:26] A/)-ACV-Andraste: L: You're not the first intelligence agent to come investigating.
[13.01.2017 19:33:33] (SolarR[R]Spirit.Walker: Ash: Ya..this is true..
[13.01.2017 19:33:35] BDM|U-99: Hofmann: Who was here before?
[13.01.2017 19:33:39] A/)-ACV-Andraste: L: The Kusarians.
[13.01.2017 19:33:42] (SolarR[R]Spirit.Walker: Ash: That, yes.
[13.01.2017 19:33:47] BDM|U-99: Hofmann: The Kempeitai?
[13.01.2017 19:33:57] (SolarR[R]Spirit.Walker: Ash: As well as the Liberty fifth fleet at one point as well during the start of it
[13.01.2017 19:33:58] A/)-ACV-Andraste: L: Naval Intelligence.
[13.01.2017 19:34:39] BDM|U-99: Hofmann: Hmm...as soon as we have evidence for the Core's fault this might look different again and we have to reconsider thing
[13.01.2017 19:34:41] BDM|U-99: s
[13.01.2017 19:34:46] A/)-ACV-Andraste: L: They read the news reports about Kusarian vessels being involved of the attack.
[13.01.2017 19:35:03] A/)-ACV-Andraste: L: Welcome to the show, Arktos.
[13.01.2017 19:35:12] (SolarR[R]Spirit.Walker: *Ashley salutes to the new ship*
[13.01.2017 19:35:20] BDM|U-99: Hofmann: Guten Tag...
[13.01.2017 19:35:29] A/)-ACV-Arktos: A: Show? I'm literally just here while the captain does..whatever it is they're doing.
[13.01.2017 19:35:45] A/)-ACV-Andraste: L: Sit on the other Battleship to your left, you mean.
[13.01.2017 19:35:57] A/)-ACV-Arktos: A: Lazy sod.
[13.01.2017 19:36:26] A/)-ACV-Andraste: L: Anyway, another party involved in this is the Maltese.
[13.01.2017 19:36:39] A/)-ACV-Andraste: L: Some have been attempting to disrupt the traffic, rob convoys and hit defending forces.
[13.01.2017 19:36:53] A/)-ACV-Andraste: L: The Commune in particular, but they end up dealt with like the rest.
[13.01.2017 19:37:26] BDM|U-99: Hofmann: So, Core blames Zoners, Zoners and Auxesians blame Core...
[13.01.2017 19:38:25] BDM|U-99: Hofmann: It all comes down on the evidence, a certain Frau Scarlet showed me evidence of the Arcadia and the other ship
[13.01.2017 19:38:31] BDM|U-99: attacking the Core
[13.01.2017 19:38:41] BDM|U-99: As well as the Zoners supporting the Order.
[13.01.2017 19:38:44] (SolarR[R]Spirit.Walker: Ash: Well, seeing as Core kidnapped our CoF president, there has been more problems rising after that.
[13.01.2017 19:38:54] A/)-ACV-Andraste: L: They're the ones who got involved with The Order. The Confederation tried to expell them from Zoner protection.
[13.01.2017 19:39:02] A/)-ACV-Andraste: L: The Zoners don't even like them.
[13.01.2017 19:39:10] BDM|U-99: Hofmann: Provide evidence for accusations then.
[13.01.2017 19:39:21] A/)-ACV-Andraste: L: I can provide better.
[13.01.2017 19:39:34] A/)-ACV-Andraste: L: Visual evidence of the Arcadia's actions against others, such as The Bretonians.
[13.01.2017 19:39:39] BDM|U-99: Hofmann: I am open for any kind of evidence, I just want to know who's at fault.
[13.01.2017 19:39:51] A/)-ACV-Andraste: L: Right now it's everyone. There are no innocent parties here.
[13.01.2017 19:40:03] (SolarR[R]Spirit.Walker: Ash: Sad but..true
[13.01.2017 19:40:13] BDM|U-99: Hofmann: Then a clearer part of the situation, what really happened.
[13.01.2017 19:40:19] BDM|U-99: Hofmann: I know two versions.
[13.01.2017 19:40:24] A/)-ACV-Andraste: L: The Core for shooting the Zoners, Arcadia and Iona for helping the Order, the Zoners for fighting back.
[13.01.2017 19:40:33] BDM|U-99: Hofmann: Let's see who can provide better evdience.
[13.01.2017 19:40:50] BDM|U-99: Hofmann: Thanks for the help Auxesians and Captain Ashley.
[13.01.2017 19:40:57] (SolarR[R]Spirit.Walker: Ash: No worries sir.
[13.01.2017 19:41:05] A/)-ACV-Andraste: L: Don't mention it.
[13.01.2017 19:41:08] BDM|U-99: Hofmann: I expect to see evidence soon, auf Wiedersehen, Admiral Hofmann out.
