Patrol Commander VANGUARD. I will cut to the chase. The situation is DIRE . The spread of focus on Vespucci, Omicron Nu, and helping Crayter has led to a complete breakdown of anti-smuggler operations in Liberty's core worlds.
Liberty's patrolling net is simply broken. It has gotten so bad that even our own corporations simply accept contracts from shady individuals and engage in mass smuggling - we caught three universal vessels blatantly using trade lanes near west point with 15,000 units of artifacts (!!!!). Your job is absolutely essential for the safety of our house.
Teach our people how to patrol, lockdown systems. New York and California have been especially poisoned by unhinged smuggling. If someone refuses on-site law enforcement demands and flees then contact them and issue a bounty to mercenaries we will pay out for you.
This is crisis mode, you are given great autonomy and a nearly unlimited budget to curb this issue and get frequent patrols and anti-smuggler net going again. We are counting on you.
