Abuse of Intranet functionality commands community service punishments as listed in regulation five three seven gamma six. security is assumed. Any deliberate or otherwise location triangulation method successfully employed against anonymous transmissions will receive either a one billion credit reward or immediate incarceration dependent upon disclosure and motive. The revanchist council requests that Arbeiters do not squander valuable neuralnet bandwith on the consumption of CNS articles, adult content, or gambling, and advise that the relevant arbeiters employ public terminals for such use, rather than the secure line. Communal enforcement may differ between Reichsarbeitergesellschaft der Alsterian and Landwirtrechbewegung cells. Consult your admin for technical support or contact your resident Neural Technology Help Specialist at www.totallypacifica@notAHacker.net. The Union reminds Arbeiters that "trolling" is not an acceptable standard of political debate, unless aimed at capitalists, fascists, militarists, etc, who lack the neurological prerequisites to engage in such discourse. Southern Unioners are encouraged to remember that the average Unioner's literary age is roughly analogous to a twelve year old on PCP, and are encouraged to avoid engaging in difficult subjects, and are suggested to stick to familiar subjects, such as the market value of cardamine, bundschuh-based footwear puns, and the general terrible quality of life aboard wedel mining station.

Have a glorious day, Comrade user. - Unity, your resident Neuralnet VI.

"Proximus Ardet Ucagelon. One would hope we can remember that in these troubled times." He grimaced..


"I will be short. The Lane Hackers have, without any prior warning and in violation of the previous testimony of professor Nicole Hunter, laid claim to the Sirene. They proceeded to Vierlande with a large fighter wing, designed to be overwhelming. Nicole Hunter herself has abruptly gone missing, and was not available for comment when her own testimony did not match with that of the current Lane Hacker administration. Make of that what you will, as the logs speak for themselves."

Schultsky's expression of disgust appeared to be cast into his strained face.


"A ship is a ship, and men are men. I believe that the Lane Hackers have attempted to use the pretext of the Unioners ownership of the Sirene, and the lack of known records as to the vessel's exact history, to state the case that the vessel is the ageling electronic warfare warship of the Lane Hackers - the Fu Manchu. This claim would be worthy of investigation under the terms of our alliance, and repossession possible. However, no proof was offered, simply a re-iteration of the demand followed by an escallation of Lane Hacker numbers in the astrospace surrounding Vierlande. Aberrant. "

"I was within thirty seconds of issuing a live fire order on the Lane Hackers."

Greed. It lined the souls of so many men that years in the Syndicates had sapped Arno's patience for self-interest. It was, to him, a neurosis, opposed to order. It was not a monetary greed, or a need for self-advancement, but a monolithic desire for control. The Siren was a very large, well armed vessel that had bested the machinations of the Auxesians and the LSF - of course, it was a desirable object. Inexonerable that thieves who would name themselves heroes would quest after its possession.


Schultsky compassed the situational reality. It was an inevitability of warfare that comrades would grow competetive within a limited pool of resources. Allies of dissimilar interests would guard against one another. This was not the first time that the Lane Hackers had grappled with the Unioners over the fine print of their relationship. Nature had not intended a pecking order amidst siblings. The Romans lay dead for a reason.

"I believe that the Lane Hackers will comply with my terms of vessel access. As the elected representative of the Sirene's cellgroup, I have offered the Lane Hackers deeper access to the Sirene's systems than offered to any previous organisation during the Union's ownership, and retrofit, of our vessel. If they a claim to the ship, then they will gain access through a direct survey by a shipboard team of engineers. We will have to ceed technical information on the Siren's Bifrost device to the Lane Hackers. I believe that the cost is acceptable given the consequences of overpressuring the hackers in the wrong direction."

"Until then, I propose that the Unioners prioritise recovering Miss Hunter, and fortifying our relations with the Liberty Rogues. We are aware of wider Lane Hacker ties to the Xenos, as reported by the Lane Hackers themselves. Despite Lane Hacker overtures to a ceasefire between the Unioners and the Xenos, the Xenos have not engaged in an armistice. I will not presume the intentions of others. This could be a component of a wider attempt to align the Lane Hackers with the Xenos, over the Unioners. This theory is to be disregarded unless the Lane Hackers abandon our proposal to analyse the Sirene within a Unioner shipyard, at which point I will file the proposition to the GEIST subdirektorate for active investigation by our field Arbeiters. "

"Our alliance with the Lane Hackers as served both sides well. The Inner Circle realises the value of the trusting relationship between the Unioners and the Lane Hackers, and would not abandon a three year developed critical asset to their organisation without a significant change in the balance of power in Liberty."

"Those men who defend their kin, defend themselves. The men and women of Green squadron and the Wedel Volenteers are to be commended for providing strategic cover during the Vierlande negotiations. Schultzky, out."

It was always the responsibility of leaders of men, Schultzky reflected, to end on an optimistic note.
