Ladies and gentlemen,

the processing of your applications led the Armaments and Munition Licensing Office to the following decision :

[to.............................Mr Vashisht : ]

Mister Vashisht,

The Armament and Licensing Office recently contracted a massive shipment of weaponry to BMM already and cannot afford to retail - gosh ! - even one of the three gunboats your are requesting. Furthermore the usage of high-end military gear is restricted to worthy and well known mens of the trade, and up to now no exceptions were made for civilian companies.

Hence the Office denies your request and advises you to look for qualified escorts instead.

[to.............................Miss Blair : ]

Madam,

your background as a civilian being checked appropriately the Armaments and Munitions Licensing Office agreed on your request, though your past as an officer in the Armed Forces eventually weighted even more. With the hope you will keep honouring the flag once you saluted, the Armaments and Munitions Licensing Office grants your the right to carry, mount and use Four 4-11b "Advanced Splitter", the license itself amounting to four millions Sirius Credits (4M) payable to the BAF|Armoury within two months, with payment acknowledgment sent in this very same channel.

The Armaments and Munitions Licensing Office wishes you a pleasant hunt after any foes we may have in common.

[to.............................Miss Ayumi : ]

Well miss,

although the Office didn't expect such a drastic change in your reputation - Bretonian space does that indeed -, the problem still remain the same : according to the most recent research on that matter, today our engineers are still unable to interface Bretonian technology with Kusarian one (report #42156, 6.2).

Now since this subject is of high interest let's expand it further. According to the experts, such hybrid technology could be realized by only few men in the galaxy : the Lane Hackers for their baffling competences in cracking military codes, the Outcasts are supposed to be excellent ship crafters and possibly have a previous experience with Bretonian technology, or perhaps the Junkers for being lucky tweakers and salvagers. Of course the Crown would never release the blueprint to known criminal, or shady to say the least, organization. And even assuming we do the price they would demand for such, hmm, Special Reseach Protocol, and in many cases the results are most likely to be non reproducible.

Now the parenthesis ends. Anyway until the matter is solved the Office cannot afford to let two more turrets on the wild if there are no guarentees they'll shoot at the right targets, and advises you to look for alternatives. The Armaments and Munitions Licensing Office wishes you a good luck in your future purchases.

thank you for your time i had no idea mixing tech would be so complex, if the turrets were in use they would of only been used against pirates, however i respect your decision and like you say ill have to find a reliable alternative somewhere, somehow

many kind regards freelancer Ayumi
