I am pleased to report that I have secured my ship and ID, I have been engaging pirates throughout rheinland with much success.
Apart from a slight SNAFU with the registeration paperwork (got myself a police tag without doing missions :$ ) hopefully this will be sorted out soon.
I am currently based on the battleship westfalen in hamburg, I have a few items to report, they are as follows:-
1) a vessel ID'd as 'intoxication' refused to heed my hails to stop for an ID check and cargo scan.
This vessel has not, to my knowledge, returned to rhienland space.
2) a minor mix up during comm exchange with a Bs| trader revealed a flaw in our database (the Bs| are allied but not listed as allies in the faction post, on that note does that mean we don't scan allied faction vessels?)
3) had a brief comm exchange (read: arguement) with a brunschuh fighter pilot, no other contact was had with the vessel.
4) a RAHF vessel refused to stop for an ID check and cargo scan, claimed to have valuables and he promptly fled the system.
I was unable to pursue because I ran into a hessain raiding party, led by a single brunschuh, that was staging in the asteroid field near vierlande prison station.
