We were doing training runs with the new gunboat at Arcetri which is performing to standard. Ceres did good work but I'm not sure if it will be entirely enough for the potential confrontations here. Especially since Arcetri security seems intent on open displays of independence.
There was plenty of Interspace transports backing up a DSE platinum operation. Which I don't appreciate and was convinced by the overwhelming support to convince one of the ships to turn around and keep the platinum ore in system. DSE responded immediately, sending out a gunboat of their own directly from Freeport 12. Can't say I appreciate that either but I convinced them to stand down and not engage. I'd rather not have the crew fight a military grade gunship in their first real engagement together. Let the transport go and the DSE ship was constantly talking about inspecting Arcetri platinum quality. Not sure what that was about but we can expect them to not make our life easy out here.
My recommendation is for us to not do so either. That Freeport seems to be mostly supplied by Interspace so it might be a Freeport in name only anymore. I think Arcetri might need some guidance on how to approach that before they vote to do something... unfavourable.
Summary:
• All ships returned
