Guten Abend Officers,
Revenant informed me about a Crayter Republic cruiser inbound for the Hamburg System, while i was in a conversation with Freelancer Caliban. As he had been working alongside the Rheinwehr two months earlier and proved himself to be a capable wingman (Rheinwehr Report #2532), i asked for his help once more.
Not long after and said cruiser appeared, was intercepted before reaching Planet Hamburg's orbit properly and questioned by me. During this time Revenant returned from Bering as well. According to the captain they were heading to Planet Neu Berlin with passengers. Scans did show over 200 explorers aboard next to the usual crew. Reasons for coming here were dubious at best, but they complied, paid the fine and were escorted out of Rheinland the way they entered it.
[18.11.2022 21:54:59] A/)-Revenant: Heads up.
[18.11.2022 21:55:06] A/)-Revenant: Olaf_Schaf is a Crayter Cruiser inbound to Hamburg.
[18.11.2022 21:55:08] A/)-Revenant: From Bering.
[18.11.2022 21:55:14] A/)-Revenant: On the lanes, has a load of passengers.
[18.11.2022 21:55:26] [RM]Obl-Trau.Habermeyer: ... what in the... thank you, Revenant.
[18.11.2022 21:55:32] Caliban: I've been hunting Nomads for months. Their thralls are no joke either.
[18.11.2022 21:55:46] [RM]Obl-Trau.Habermeyer: Seems work is inbound... Crayter Cruiser with ... a lot of passengers inbound to Hamburg.
[18.11.2022 21:55:56] Caliban: A- what?
[18.11.2022 21:56:00] [RM]Obl-Trau.Habermeyer: Ja... my reaction.
[18.11.2022 21:56:27] Caliban: Where'd you get that one from?
[18.11.2022 21:56:29] [RM]Obl-Trau.Habermeyer: I'd like your help should he try something and refuses to comply. Your choice in the end.
[18.11.2022 21:56:32] [RM]Obl-Trau.Habermeyer: Revenant.
[18.11.2022 21:56:49] Caliban: Great...she's talkative alright.
[18.11.2022 21:56:59] [RM]Obl-Trau.Habermeyer: A trait i welcome.
[18.11.2022 21:57:02] Caliban: Well, let's see the Cruiser, I suppose.
[18.11.2022 21:57:34] Caliban: I will need a downpayment of Three Million Credits, though. Repairs are expensive.
[18.11.2022 21:57:40] Caliban: If it comes down to that.
[18.11.2022 21:57:41] [RM]Obl-Trau.Habermeyer: Will be the second Crayter vessel in here...
[18.11.2022 21:57:44] [RM]Obl-Trau.Habermeyer: Certainly.
[18.11.2022 21:57:51] [RM]Obl-Trau.Habermeyer: Halt - Crayter Vessel.
[18.11.2022 21:58:00] Caliban: Great.
[18.11.2022 21:58:08] Olaf_Schaf: greetings Sirs
[18.11.2022 21:58:32] [RM]Obl-Trau.Habermeyer: Ja - greetings. May i inquire what in all that is holy has brought you here to Rheinland, Crayter vessel?
[18.11.2022 21:59:04] Olaf_Schaf: well, a special order.. to bring these people to Berlin
[18.11.2022 21:59:18] Caliban: Oh boy...
[18.11.2022 21:59:28] [RM]Obl-Trau.Habermeyer: And who ordered that...? I am not aware of any orders from the Oberkommando to permit a Crayter Cruiser into our space.
[18.11.2022 22:00:43] Olaf_Schaf: so it is a problem? i wasnt here for a long time and it seems to me that anarchie has won herew
[18.11.2022 22:01:03] [RM]Obl-Trau.Habermeyer: ... ... 'anarchy'...?
[18.11.2022 22:01:20] Olaf_Schaf: in my opinion.. yes
[18.11.2022 22:01:34] Caliban: I do think this is a bit wrong. You see. That is a Foreign Ship you're flying. Not the best one to bring here.
[18.11.2022 22:02:01] Olaf_Schaf: i understand, but are we enemies?
[18.11.2022 22:02:08] [RM]Obl-Trau.Habermeyer: Consider your opinion ... noted, Crayter vessel. Rheinland Law clearly states Crayter military assets are not allowed within
[18.11.2022 22:02:11] [RM]Obl-Trau.Habermeyer: our borders.
[18.11.2022 22:02:32] [RM]Obl-Trau.Habermeyer: Same as Rheinland does not send their military vessels into your territory without prior form of communication. It sends ...
[18.11.2022 22:02:34] [RM]Obl-Trau.Habermeyer: wrong signals.
[18.11.2022 22:03:14] Caliban: Signals like...hm. Well, "Threat" is one of them.
[18.11.2022 22:04:17] Olaf_Schaf: ok, well, i accept this.. of course...i guess i got a wrong impression of this secors i didnt visit a long time.
[18.11.2022 22:04:35] [RM]Obl-Trau.Habermeyer: With that said - article four, section four clause one has been breached. A fine of 10.000.000 Sirian Credits is required to be
[18.11.2022 22:04:48] Olaf_Schaf: Sir, what do you except now?
[18.11.2022 22:04:59] [RM]Obl-Trau.Habermeyer: paid - in this case to me. Furthermore i have to escort you out of Rheinland space the fastest route again.
[18.11.2022 22:05:10] [RM]Obl-Trau.Habermeyer: Which is ... Bering. [18.11.2022 22:05:44] A/)-Revenant: Be wary of it's missiles, if it attacks.
[18.11.2022 22:05:54] Caliban: That's your best option, Crayter. Think of the people you're transporting. They wouldn't want to see this unfold the wrong way.
[18.11.2022 22:06:04] A/)-Revenant: Quite the odd liner.
[18.11.2022 22:06:37] [RM]Obl-Trau.Habermeyer: Nor would a diplomatic incident be welcomed by any party...
[18.11.2022 22:07:28] Caliban: Well, shooting at Rheinland official usually doesn't help with your people delivery thing. I don't think it would help you land
[18.11.2022 22:07:33] Caliban: -on New Berlin anytime soon.
[18.11.2022 22:07:59] Caliban: In case you've considered it.
[18.11.2022 22:09:12] Olaf_Schaf: Dear Caliban, i dont know why to talk to you. i think the Rm has the authority here, right? So Mr. Habermeyer, i am worried a
[18.11.2022 22:09:17] A/)-Revenant: Oh.
[18.11.2022 22:09:22] A/)-Revenant: Thank you for the missile.
[18.11.2022 22:09:34] Caliban: You'd love to think that.
[18.11.2022 22:09:47] Olaf_Schaf: bit now
[18.11.2022 22:09:50] Caliban: Me? I'm just here to offer you advice.
[18.11.2022 22:09:52] A/)-Revenant: I saw the blip.
[18.11.2022 22:10:09] [RM]Obl-Trau.Habermeyer: It's Miss Habermeyer - anyway. I just told what is to be done, Crayter vessel.
[18.11.2022 22:10:23] A/)-Revenant: If you wish to trade in other Houses, you may want to invest into a Liner.
[18.11.2022 22:10:30] A/)-Revenant: Not a Cruiser - these are considered foreign war ships.
[18.11.2022 22:10:52] [RM]Obl-Trau.Habermeyer: A fine of 10.000.000 Sirian Credits to be paid for breaking Rheinland Law and entering with a cruiser. When that is done i will
[18.11.2022 22:11:02] [RM]Obl-Trau.Habermeyer: escort you out of Rheinland the fastest way - which happens to be Bering.
[18.11.2022 22:12:33] [RM]Obl-Trau.Habermeyer: ... excellent - fine paid. Appreciated. With this - set a course for the Bering jump gate.
[18.11.2022 22:12:45] [RM]Obl-Trau.Habermeyer: We will not use the lanes.
[18.11.2022 22:13:23] Caliban: Come on, big guy. Let's go back the way you came.
[18.11.2022 22:14:16] [RM]Obl-Trau.Habermeyer: I said we do not use the lanes. Lane acces will be kept free of foreign military assets. Cruise engine has to suffice.
[18.11.2022 22:14:37] [RM]Obl-Trau.Habermeyer: Good.
[18.11.2022 22:15:07] Olaf_Schaf: i have to say i am sorry
[18.11.2022 22:15:12] [RM]Obl-Trau.Habermeyer: Clear the usual lane - fly next to it.
[18.11.2022 22:15:32] [RM]Obl-Trau.Habermeyer: ... your apology is appreciated, Crayter vessel. For what little it may change - it means something to me.
[18.11.2022 22:15:35] Olaf_Schaf: i really thought somethings wrong in these systems
[18.11.2022 22:15:46] [RM]Obl-Trau.Habermeyer: And ... why is that?
[18.11.2022 22:15:54] [RM]Obl-Trau.Habermeyer: Some propaganda outside Rheinland?
[18.11.2022 22:16:11] Olaf_Schaf: i didnt met any friens today or a CR
[18.11.2022 22:16:27] A/)-Revenant: Crayter is usually around Coronado.
[18.11.2022 22:16:36] A/)-Revenant: Or the Taus.
[18.11.2022 22:16:38] [RM]Obl-Trau.Habermeyer: Well ... a fellow Crayter vessel wouldn't be found here in Rheinland anyway.
[18.11.2022 22:16:43] Olaf_Schaf: i was there, but all alone
[18.11.2022 22:17:09] [RM]Obl-Trau.Habermeyer: Sometimes this is how things are - bleak and alone. Times may change.
[18.11.2022 22:17:50] Olaf_Schaf: i see, at last i have to thank you...
[18.11.2022 22:18:12] Olaf_Schaf: ehhm, what about my passengers?
[18.11.2022 22:18:12] [RM]Obl-Trau.Habermeyer: Only doing my duty. Once more - your cooperation in this matter has been noted, Crayter vessel. Proceed to Bering, bitte.
[18.11.2022 22:18:19] [RM]Obl-Trau.Habermeyer: Ah....
[18.11.2022 22:18:23] [RM]Obl-Trau.Habermeyer: Well, where have you gotten them from?
[18.11.2022 22:18:41] Olaf_Schaf: from coronado
[18.11.2022 22:18:41] [RM]Obl-Trau.Habermeyer: Whoever told them to board a military cruiser to fly to Neu Berlin clearly has some catching up to do.
[18.11.2022 22:18:53] Caliban: For god's sake- pardon that mine.
[18.11.2022 22:19:15] [RM]Obl-Trau.Habermeyer: I suggest they seek to find a civilian transport to move to their destination.
[18.11.2022 22:19:25] [RM]Obl-Trau.Habermeyer: Or ask Orbital Spa & Cruise for assistance.
[18.11.2022 22:20:37] [RM]Obl-Trau.Habermeyer: ... right, with that - please proceed to Bering.
[18.11.2022 22:21:17] Olaf_Schaf: ill head now for Coronoado. have a nice day.
[18.11.2022 22:21:26] Caliban: You too.
[18.11.2022 22:21:27] Olaf_Schaf: Greetings
[18.11.2022 22:21:56] [RM]Obl-Trau.Habermeyer: ... and they tell me Hamburg is dead...
[18.11.2022 22:22:12] A/)-Revenant: I thought we were going to put things behind us, Caliban.
[18.11.2022 22:22:18] [RM]Obl-Trau.Habermeyer: One second, i have to relay this...*Comms cut out*
