Brother Shepardi, you have done well in your actions against the UKMG ships.
Last time I looked IMG are our friends, allies in our respective struggles against the treacherous house of Bretonia. But also last time I looked, the IMG kept to their own mining fields and did not go around poaching other people's property.
I don't know who this UKMG think they are, but rumour has it these thieves and squatters are making enemies all over Sirius. I say we keep a close eye on them indeed... no good can come of people who come into a man's house without his leave and without respect.
**** Re: AW
I have enormous respect for the \UG/. They have proven themselves honourable and upstanding people. Which is why I take Mr.Rakghoul's offer very seriously.
Unfortunately a rift exists between us and the house of AW, those dishonourable dogs. Time and again they come to us with the olive branch, but when we grab at it, it is a stick of thorns. They act out of blatant self-interest and disregard for the downtrodden and freedom loving peoples of Sirius. It would take a long, long time indeed before we could trust AW again.
Having said that I know Rakghoul is a man of his word. If he believes AW may be of some use against a threat greater than us all, and if he feels he can keep a leash on their pilots, I trust him. I vote we allow AW pilots to cross our space *on these conditions*:
- AW must be accompanied by a \UG/ ship
- AW will be on weapons stand-down the whole time
- AW is not to pass within 15k of our stations
- No cargo is to be carried either in or out by AW, except what is necessary for ship operation
- TBH will be allowed access to scan AW ships on demand
- AW will follow any and all instructions by \JG/ and TBH
- TBH reserves the right to order AW out for any reason, no questions asked
Any AW found straying from \UG/ guiding hand, or not complying with the above, will be shot immediately. Naturally we must pledge to honour our side of the arrangement: AW ships complying with the conditions will not be harrassed or endangered; and yes, we will be polite and respectful.
