GMG Second Invasion
Today I took U-201 gunboat ,and went for my first patrol after promotion.Simga-13 jumpgate was assaulted again by the Gas Miners Guild hostile vehicles ,since I am able to operate in a gunboat now ,repeling their two weaves was what I could do.Then I tried to reach Sigma-13 by the jumphole in order to find some reinforcements,and I have encountered a Kusari Naval Force operative under the name [KNF]'Kiyohime'.We have grooped and returned to red zone to repel the GMG.There we found freelancer pilot fightin already in his gunboat ,gladly everything well.But before we reached the red zone area at Sigma-13 jumpgate ,I had some interesting chat with this operative named above.I think this what you may find interesting is in evidence ,our little conversation.And of course evidence from the field ,Gas Miner Guild has hit Sigma-13 jumpgate area once more ,with same routine.I honestly hope you will not forget to check out our little chat.

[17.10.2017 00:49:53] [KNF]'Kiyohime': I'm afraid that is rather hard to pronounce, my apologies.
[17.10.2017 00:50:10] BDM|U-201: No appologies needed!
[17.10.2017 00:50:13] [KNF]'Kiyohime': I am Kiyohime, Tokkeitai.
[17.10.2017 00:50:46] [KNF]'Kiyohime': You are patrolling the area?
[17.10.2017 00:50:46] BDM|U-201: Lichthammer: And your current rank is?
[17.10.2017 00:51:16] BDM|U-201: No actually I am heading out to find one of yours since KNF told me they will be guarding Simga-13
[17.10.2017 00:51:27] [KNF]'Kiyohime': Did they?
[17.10.2017 00:51:31] BDM|U-201: I wanted to inform you that our jumpgate is under siege once again by the minders.
[17.10.2017 00:51:44] BDM|U-201: //miners*
[17.10.2017 00:51:50] [KNF]'Kiyohime': Is it? Would you mind if I took a look?
[17.10.2017 00:52:24] [KNF]'Kiyohime': That is near the green field, correct?
[17.10.2017 00:52:33] BDM|U-201: Ja!

[17.10.2017 00:53:11] BDM|U-201: Yes.
[17.10.2017 00:53:34] [KNF]'Kiyohime': I wasn't aware they possessed such technology. Are you sure they do indeed belong to Gas Miner Guild?
[17.10.2017 00:53:51] BDM|U-201: You were present today when nomad incident appeared?
[17.10.2017 00:53:56] [KNF]'Kiyohime': Negative.
[17.10.2017 00:54:00] BDM|U-201: If not consult to your collegues they were present.
[17.10.2017 00:54:13] [KNF]'Kiyohime': The Shirayuki heavy unit, that is?
[17.10.2017 00:54:16] BDM|U-201: We believe that GMG may not be the cause of Nebula
[17.10.2017 00:54:21] [KNF]'Kiyohime': And Kusari Naval Intelligence?
[17.10.2017 00:54:23] BDM|U-201: Yes indeed
[17.10.2017 00:54:38] [KNF]'Kiyohime': That looks indeed dirty.
[17.10.2017 00:54:50] [KNF]'Kiyohime': Could you engineer assess the damage done to the gate?
[17.10.2017 00:54:56] [KNF]'Kiyohime': Engineers, rather.
[17.10.2017 00:54:58] BDM|U-201: I was actually looking up to that unit when I said I am headed to Sigma-13
[17.10.2017 00:55:15] BDM|U-201: Well let me make you clear
[17.10.2017 00:55:19] [KNF]'Kiyohime': Shirayuki retreated to Sigma 13.
[17.10.2017 00:55:32] BDM|U-201: Today trough Honshu ,or so I was told ,Nomad entity appeared.
[17.10.2017 00:55:47] BDM|U-201: It passed all way to Frankfurt ,at Sigma-13 jumphole
[17.10.2017 00:55:52] [KNF]'Kiyohime': Hostile spotted on scope.
[17.10.2017 00:55:54] [KNF]'Kiyohime': Hm.
[17.10.2017 00:55:56] BDM|U-201: Roger
[17.10.2017 00:55:58] [KNF]'Kiyohime': GMG design indeed.
[17.10.2017 00:56:04] BDM|U-201: Men all guns!
[17.10.2017 00:56:11] BDM|U-201: {charging firepower}
[17.10.2017 00:57:25] /time
[17.10.2017 00:57:25] 2017-10-17 00:57:26 SMT
[17.10.2017 00:57:50] /time
[17.10.2017 00:57:50] 2017-10-17 00:57:51 SMT
[17.10.2017 00:59:22] [KNF]'Kiyohime': Quite tough indeed.
[17.10.2017 00:59:28] BDM|U-201: That went fine!
[17.10.2017 00:59:44] BDM|U-201: I was hoping to talk to one of your people about a certain matter
[17.10.2017 00:59:51] BDM|U-201: Ah yes first nomad incident report
[17.10.2017 00:59:56] [KNF]'Kiyohime': Hai?
[17.10.2017 01:00:02] BDM|U-201: Ship you mentioned will tell you all about it
[17.10.2017 01:00:06] BDM|U-201: Your collegue
[17.10.2017 01:00:23] BDM|U-201: It was quite an invasion ,nomad sized as battleship only stronger
[17.10.2017 01:00:32] BDM|U-201: I wasnt present ,but your collegues gave me such report.
[17.10.2017 01:00:37] BDM|U-201: So did Military
[17.10.2017 01:00:51] [KNF]'Kiyohime': Those ones... They showed up quite often lately.
[17.10.2017 01:00:55] Tip: The world of Freelancer is full of ambiguity just like real life is. Not all characters showing up as hostile are your enemies. Likewise - not all characters showing up as neutral are your friends.
[17.10.2017 01:02:28] [KNF]'Kiyohime': What was the matter you wanted to discuss, regardless?
[17.10.2017 01:02:37] BDM|U-201: Follow me
[17.10.2017 01:02:45] BDM|U-201: Lets not die here
[17.10.2017 01:03:03] BDM|U-201: Hes tracking us!
[17.10.2017 01:03:17] [KNF]'Kiyohime': I will dispatch it.
[17.10.2017 01:03:56] BDM|U-201: Do excuse me for not knowing much about Kusaris inner relations but I must admit i was confused.
[17.10.2017 01:04:06] [KNF]'Kiyohime': How come?
[17.10.2017 01:05:00] BDM|U-201: Well I have recently got this promotion in Marinnenkomando
[17.10.2017 01:05:30] BDM|U-201: Since Buro seems to be more interested in my other tallents then ,xenobiology ,so I am not a politician nor historian
[17.10.2017 01:05:44] BDM|U-201: I know mostly what I need to know
[17.10.2017 01:06:09] BDM|U-201: So may I ask how did hostility appear between Gas Miners Guild and Republick of Kusari?
[17.10.2017 01:06:41] BDM|U-201: Since last time I interacted with GMG and their hostility was because they declare us as Imperialist nation
[17.10.2017 01:07:08] BDM|U-201: I wasnt expecting GMG to improvise terror on Kusari.
[17.10.2017 01:07:22] [KNF]'Kiyohime': House Kusari relations with GMG have been uneasy since Kurile crysis. This event prompted a short lived conflict right before
[17.10.2017 01:07:28] [KNF]'Kiyohime': the Republic was founded.
[17.10.2017 01:07:51] [KNF]'Kiyohime': Since then, our treaties with GMG have been declared as void.
[17.10.2017 01:07:54] BDM|U-201: //my inrp biography explains why i dont know this :/
[17.10.2017 01:08:30] [KNF]'Kiyohime': GMG claims the Sigmas as their own and generally refuse any external ingerence.
[17.10.2017 01:08:47] [KNF]'Kiyohime': As for contention points with the Guild, planet Kurile is the main one.
[17.10.2017 01:08:49] BDM|U-201: Ah indeed! That explains a lot of happenings I had in past
[17.10.2017 01:09:12] [KNF]'Kiyohime': Planet Kurile is claimed by Samura Keiretsu, as you certainly know.
[17.10.2017 01:09:36] BDM|U-201: Samura ,they support Imperialists?
[17.10.2017 01:09:43] [KNF]'Kiyohime': They do.
[17.10.2017 01:09:59] [KNF]'Kiyohime': Some among the Keiretsu, at least.
[17.10.2017 01:10:10] BDM|U-201: And yes you are in problems but I was thinking if you are up to hear an open minded and hearted idea.
[17.10.2017 01:10:17] [KNF]'Kiyohime': The situation is more complex than just stating Kishiro supports the Republic and Samura the Empire.
[17.10.2017 01:10:49] [KNF]'Kiyohime': Feel free to speak.
[17.10.2017 01:10:50] BDM|U-201: So you do support each other ,regardless of your war ? For the sake of Kusari you are ready to cooperate together?
[17.10.2017 01:11:30] BDM|U-201: I have had some reports from Kyushu
[17.10.2017 01:11:37] BDM|U-201: Kruger transport ,standard routine.
[17.10.2017 01:11:55] BDM|U-201: I hear there are people who equally hate GMG as much as they hate us
[17.10.2017 01:12:12] BDM|U-201: Only problem is Republic is not fine with it.
[17.10.2017 01:12:41] [KNF]'Kiyohime': There is elements within the Republic which are very biased towards the Guild.
[17.10.2017 01:12:58] [KNF]'Kiyohime': Simply because Kishiro keiretsu has strong economic interests with GMG.
[17.10.2017 01:12:59] BDM|U-201: What do you mean?
[17.10.2017 01:13:16] BDM|U-201: So you are saying you have problems with supplying
[17.10.2017 01:13:35] BDM|U-201: We can offer something ,I can talk to high command.
[17.10.2017 01:13:46] BDM|U-201: But what I was trying to point out.
[17.10.2017 01:13:51] [KNF]'Kiyohime': No. I'm saying Kishiro is very influential right now, and is friendly towards the Guild.
[17.10.2017 01:14:23] BDM|U-201: And how does your agency deal with Kishiro?
[17.10.2017 01:14:55] BDM|U-201: Krugar assistant has traveled Kusari spaces not so long ago ..
[17.10.2017 01:14:59] [KNF]'Kiyohime': It is a Keiretsu. An economic power of great magnitude. So is Samura.
[17.10.2017 01:15:10] BDM|U-201: Reports from Kyushu and Tottori are not good for your kind.
[17.10.2017 01:15:19] BDM|U-201: Imperial fleet has taken over the system as we hear
[17.10.2017 01:15:37] [KNF]'Kiyohime': Indeed. Kusari is suffering a civil war.
[17.10.2017 01:16:03] BDM|U-201: Do Imperialists know about GMG and its actions?
[17.10.2017 01:16:10] BDM|U-201: Since I dont they are in good relations
[17.10.2017 01:16:43] [KNF]'Kiyohime': They probably do, but the Sigmas is not their priority right now.
[17.10.2017 01:16:45] BDM|U-201: I dont mean to be rude ,I was thinking is there any way we could use them?
[17.10.2017 01:16:49] BDM|U-201: As we use Unioners
[17.10.2017 01:17:31] [KNF]'Kiyohime': Imperials are on the other side of Kusari. Using them as you say would force us to allow them to gain ground in Kusari.
[17.10.2017 01:17:32] BDM|U-201: If we could have someone spreading terror in sigmas without our men dying..
[17.10.2017 01:17:57] BDM|U-201: Oh and that would mean your goverment stability would be ruined.
[17.10.2017 01:18:04] BDM|U-201: I understand
[17.10.2017 01:18:15] [KNF]'Kiyohime': As it stands, House Kusari is yet to take a stance on the matter. Perhaps it will side with House Rheinland agaisnt GMG.
[17.10.2017 01:18:18] [KNF]'Kiyohime': Perhaps not.
[17.10.2017 01:18:44] BDM|U-201: I have evidence of your hostility towards the Guild.
[17.10.2017 01:18:49] [KNF]'Kiyohime': Our investigation here is vital to take a proper decision.
[17.10.2017 01:18:54] [KNF]'Kiyohime': Do you?
[17.10.2017 01:19:04] BDM|U-201: {says to gb commander silenty whispers} Charge all weapons
[17.10.2017 01:19:29] BDM|U-201: You have their blood on your hands.
[17.10.2017 01:19:44] [KNF]'Kiyohime': Are you intending to fire on my vessel?
[17.10.2017 01:19:48] BDM|U-201: How do you expect to negotiate with someone you brutally murdered alongside Rheinland.
[17.10.2017 01:20:07] BDM|U-201: Oh please dont be funny ,why would u come to that conclusion?
[17.10.2017 01:20:21] BDM|U-201: I did not think like that facing your assault cruiser
[17.10.2017 01:20:27] BDM|U-201: I dont think you have need to fear me.
[17.10.2017 01:20:32] [KNF]'Kiyohime': Good.
[17.10.2017 01:20:42] [KNF]'Kiyohime': As for your question, I merely defended myself.
[17.10.2017 01:20:57] BDM|U-201: You got me pritty worried
[17.10.2017 01:21:02] [KNF]'Kiyohime': I do not even know if those vessels did indeed belong to GMG.
[17.10.2017 01:21:12] BDM|U-201: About your "decision" about the miners
[17.10.2017 01:21:24] BDM|U-201: {suspicious}
[17.10.2017 01:21:30] BDM|U-201: I see ,no wonder.
[17.10.2017 01:21:44] [KNF]'Kiyohime': That decision is not mine, certainly. It will decided upon by our political body.
[17.10.2017 01:21:44] BDM|U-201: Kishiro will bring it all at its place right {dirty smile}
[17.10.2017 01:21:45] [KNF]'Kiyohime': The Diet.
[17.10.2017 01:21:53] [KNF]'Kiyohime': No.
[17.10.2017 01:22:01] [KNF]'Kiyohime': As I said, Kishiro is influential.
[17.10.2017 01:22:18] [KNF]'Kiyohime': But it is not the only influential power within Kusari.
[17.10.2017 01:22:42] BDM|U-201: It is .
[17.10.2017 01:22:48] BDM|U-201: YOu have just opened my eyes.
[17.10.2017 01:23:05] BDM|U-201: We will ,deal with the Guild ,if they resume in their terrorist activicies.
[17.10.2017 01:23:17] BDM|U-201: I hope you help us for the sake of our countries ..
[17.10.2017 01:23:21] [KNF]'Kiyohime': Certainly. Such acts cannot be allowed.
[17.10.2017 01:23:46] BDM|U-201: But why did you tell me you may end up supporting the Guild?
[17.10.2017 01:23:47] [KNF]'Kiyohime': House Kusari has no interest in letting that region gain in unstability.
[17.10.2017 01:24:03] [KNF]'Kiyohime': It is a possibility.
[17.10.2017 01:24:17] [KNF]'Kiyohime': I am just a member of the Naval Forces.
[17.10.2017 01:24:25] BDM|U-201: Who has decided to say that?
[17.10.2017 01:24:26] [KNF]'Kiyohime': I am not the prime minister, or a member of the Diet.
[17.10.2017 01:24:35] BDM|U-201: Are you awared of your actions towards Kusari Republic
[17.10.2017 01:24:48] BDM|U-201: If that is possibility
[17.10.2017 01:24:52] BDM|U-201: Saying that publickly
[17.10.2017 01:24:58] BDM|U-201: May influence our diplomacy.
[17.10.2017 01:24:58] [KNF]'Kiyohime': I'm simply honest with you.
[17.10.2017 01:25:09] BDM|U-201: I aprechiate ,but would your supperiors?
[17.10.2017 01:25:24] BDM|U-201: I do not intent to blackmail you ,I just wonder why would you come here and say it to me.
[17.10.2017 01:25:50] BDM|U-201: Your practickly getting us prepared if House Kusari decides to turn to GMG.
[17.10.2017 01:25:52] [KNF]'Kiyohime': I was merely trying to explain you how complex the political situation can be in Kusari.
[17.10.2017 01:26:06] BDM|U-201: We cannot allow war.
[17.10.2017 01:26:13] [KNF]'Kiyohime': Nor can we.
[17.10.2017 01:26:16] BDM|U-201: I hope your superiors make their choise
[17.10.2017 01:26:40] [KNF]'Kiyohime': They certainly will do. I very much doubt they would decide to war House Rheinland, however.
[17.10.2017 01:26:51] [KNF]'Kiyohime': That is not a conflict House Kusari willing to start.
