Break of com silence and direct interaction during the second mission:

As I flew by every vessel to scan it, I cought the curiosity of Harvester_28 about my activities. As he stayed in short scanner range long enough, I saw 6 Hessian Pilots in his Cargo Hold. I stoped and demanded to drop the hessian pilots. Now as I know these all consuming beasts, I offered him Bountyhunter, Wild and Rheinland Pilots which I had in my own hold for ... private reasons. It took the harvester some time to process my demand and to establish connection to some "FTWG"-device or something. In the end, he handed over the six Hessian Pilots in exchange for 3 Wild Pilots.

This exchange of Pilots is nothing unusual, as it happened some time ago where I was under the command of Major Moritz. The odd thing was one of the 522nd battle group trying to convince me that this toaster unit would definitely be cooperative and that I really don't need to take further action, while the harvester was establishing connection to his toaster-network. It seemed that those libertorians wanted to keep the harvester unit out of trouble. (One may note: I was flying an Odin but still demanding Pilots from a Talamanca Cruiser).

Further more: during both missions, No elite corsair pilots were encountered. The Bounty Hunter, Harvester and Libertorian Fleet activity was tightly concentrated around the Bornholm Depot.

Recommendations:

Even though the 522nd and the Harvesters aren't hostile to the Hessians for now but to be treated as potential threats as ordered, the Bounty Hunters sure as hell are.
All these (potential) enemies are welcome guests to the Junkers.

• Recommending to keep the Relations to the Junkers on an average economic level as usual.
  
• Recommending a cleansing strike on all hostile or lawful actives in Omega 15 and around Bornholm Depot in specific.
  
• Recommending to check the waters at the 522nd. Personally though, I would feel better to bury them sooner than later.
  

Mit Kameradschaftlichen Gruessen,
Hautpman von Seelenburg.
