As part of our ongoing feasibility study for the proposed new contract, I recommend that we involve our Associates in the following short-term objectives:
1: All Associates should familiarize themselves immediately with the Edinburgh System, including all entrances and exits, bases, traffic routes, and local political trends. If an Associate is for some reason unwelcome at either Perth Station or the Liner Shetland, he should address the conflict immediately, utilizing whatever missions, baksheesh, or other means necessary;
2: Effective immediately, we should attempt a complete and total blockade of Isley base in Edinburgh. No traffic in or out. No supplies of any kind in or out, especially drugs or weapons. Close attention should be paid to the nearby jump holes to Lewis and Leeds; as they are prime routes for the Gaian terrorists. Any drugs, weapons, or other items confiscated as a result of the blockade are to be considered commission during this exercise, and may be disposed of as the Associate sees fit. The blockade should also serve to improve the Associates standing with the entities mentioned in (1) above;
3: It is highly recommended that our Associates stay clean during this trial run. We do not wish to annoy or risk confrontation with Bretonian Police or Military, the SF, or their hired thugs, the SSO, for the period of this exercise. If contraband is acquired during (2) above, it should be disposed of immediately at the nearest in-system base;
4: At least one warehouse class vessel should be assigned a duty station in Edinburgh during the exercise. All Gaian prisoners will be collected, tallied, and housed there, with proper credit to the Associates who collect the prisoners, for eventual monetary reimbursement. This will allow us to collect accurate data on the blockade, both tactically and financially;
5: If Associates are confronted by any other factions during this exercise as to intentions, either individually or as an Organization, re-direct their questions to myself or Kingpin. It is none of their business at present. You know nothing. You see nothing. You were visiting your Auntie and got lost. Whatever. There are specific parties who will know what you are doing, as they are the potential clients. But, as far as you are concerned, they are all nosy bastards who will have to call for an appointment at LD.Inc Corporate.
Boss, please review and comment, or approve. I suspect we can obtain all the data needed for our study within 5 to 7 days; but the sooner we start the better. Ill need to have the raw data when negotiations resume.
