To the IMG

TO: Council of Dons
FROM: Peter Barrington

I have already indicated awareness of the battle this weekend in Tau 23, especially since I was present at it. I watched as RoS vessels lined up with other Outcast forces to do battle against us. That is not in dispute.

What is in dispute is (1) whether there was, in fact, some sort of ceasefire preceding that engagement and (2) whether the Guild is responsible for every independent who of their own volition obtains an IMG transponder.

The obvious answer to both of these is "no." First, if you wish to engage IMG in hostilities, why put up the pretense of a ceasefire violation? You attack us at will anyway, so why attempt to make your move here look more legitimate than it really is?

Second, neither you nor we can control who obtains our transponders, and given the vessel in question was not callsigned according to our organization - nor do we use battlestars - you really have nothing to say to us in the matter.

Good day.


Barrington out.
