Hello Rogues of Alcatraz and Montezuma,

I am Colonel Eliza Valdez and I represent the Maltese Legion which hopefully you're already familiar with from our recent operations into Liberty. I contact you regarding a proposition. Soon there will be a big military operation against the Crayterian forces in Coronado. To be more precise we aim to bring the united Maltese fleet into their home and destroy their stations in the system and thus cull their influence over the region which has grown while we had been idle. Their attempts to patrol and police the Barrier corridor from Cortez to the Taus has hampered our mutual smuggling operations for far too long and we fear that if we let them enjoy their comfort there any longer we risk things only getting worse.

There have already been large scale preparations on our side for this to happen and we will strike from the Barrier Rim when the time comes. What we need from you is to provide an ambush near the Cortez jumphole from where we expect to see reinforcements coming to the Crayterian side. Should you decide to participate you will be entitled to the spoils of war - be they glory, captives or valuable cargo and technology we can plunder from the smoldering remains of their stations.

I am certain you see both the short and long term benefits of this operation succeeding and am eager to hear what you have to say about our offer for cooperation.

In service of Malta,
Eliza Valdez
