Zoners Ignoring Authority
It's good to be back in Rheinland.
If I ever loose the Libertonian accent after my 2 year infiltration however, is another matter. I've gotten to stretch my wings in a Wraith again. Today was a quit day, the trade lanes were almost empty.
Then I spotted a Zoner.
This might be personal but, I've quite trusted them. Anyone that feels the need to avoid house space is hiding something, so I asked the Zoner to halt for a routine inspection. He refused, I explained to him the Gravitas of ignoring an Order from an Officer of Rheinland.
In shorthand, his response will be summarized as: Too Bad
He then entered the Omega-11 System, even more questionable, whereupon I was able to apprehend him, with superior cruise speed. Scanning his cargo I found trade lane parts, my suspicious is he was shipping them to a Hessian base in the system.
I diverted him back to New Berlin, and had him dock on Bonn Station, where he'll be more thoroughly questioned. These Zoners need to learn to respect the law.
Additionally i briefly encountered a Corsair, though they fled from my scanners before I could intercept.

[29.05.2017 12:47:27] BDM|Kms-Alexander.Krupp: Zoner, I'd like to ask you to halt.
[29.05.2017 12:47:48] Peter_Wyatt: Why so, friend?
[29.05.2017 12:48:21] BDM|Kms-Alexander.Krupp: Because you're hereby ordered to, refuse to comply at your own risk
[29.05.2017 12:48:57] Peter_Wyatt: Then let it be so
Omega 11
[29.05.2017 12:51:11] BDM|Kms-Alexander.Krupp: This is your last chance to halt
[29.05.2017 12:51:15] Peter_Wyatt: I've got these delicious tradelane parts I've... acquired, that would surely help the Rheinland military in further endeavours
[29.05.2017 12:51:23] Peter_Wyatt: You sure you don't want me to deliver them
[29.05.2017 12:51:53] BDM|Kms-Alexander.Krupp: Trade of Trade Lane and Jump Gate parts is unrestricted in Rheinland. Travel through the Omega-11 System is
[29.05.2017 12:52:03] BDM|Kms-Alexander.Krupp: Divert course to the Jump Gate immediately, or suffer the consequences
[29.05.2017 12:52:21] Peter_Wyatt: Well, I've had... a tip that the Solaris station needs these parts
[29.05.2017 12:52:28] Peter_Wyatt: You can see their demand for yourself
[29.05.2017 12:52:31] BDM|Kms-Alexander.Krupp: You're out of bounds
[29.05.2017 12:52:46] BDM|Kms-Alexander.Krupp: Travel in this system is restricted to official Rheinland corporations
[29.05.2017 12:53:18] Peter_Wyatt: Fine, I'll deliver them to New Berlin then, but you're needlessly complicating this. I would just drop them off and go back -
[29.05.2017 12:53:27] Peter_Wyatt: you could even accompany me to ensure no... diversions
[29.05.2017 12:53:32] BDM|Kms-Alexander.Krupp: Affirmative, divert to New Berlin now.
