Some idiot named JimmyHoffa was flying a Lane Hacker Gunship around Omicron Alpha earlier, carried Outcast ID but had a Hacker IFF. That's not the "idiot" part. He claimed to be hunting "squid", which I learned on Freeport 10 was a derogatory slang term for the spirits. I'd have terminated him on the spot if I had the firepower, but the Scimitar can't do everything.
On a more helpful note, I direct your attention to channel OCC20046, where I am creating a listing of all "independent" Outcasts. I bring this to your attention for two reasons: first, so you can rally reinforcements more easily, and second, so you can direct Outcasts to that registry.
I took a trip to Bretonia earlier to deliver a gift of Kusari pilots, but no BAF personnel were available. They're sitting in the holding cells now, Tiana seems to be having fun with them. I hear she got a new knife yesterday.
I picked up two mostly-intact Kusari neutron blasters, called "Disinfectors". Unfortunately, all of the damage was to vital components, leaving me with little more than a shell and the wiring structure. I intend to hit a few more Kusari patrols to try and get a few more Disinfectors for my research, so I'll be spending some time in the Taus.
