Buenos diaz senores
I have the honour to inform you about a successful artifact delivery to Kamakura base:



Unfortunately the dealer at Kamakura could not offer food in return, but plutonium, Corsair still have enough. So i left Kamakura empty and picked the food from FA Shibukawa in Nagano.

I hope i can deliver another load soon, but for the next days my time is occupied by other business.

Oh, nearly forgotten. I would gratefully appreciate, if you could send me the Jumpgate codes for the Honshu-Okinawa gate. On the last run i had a hard time shaking off some nasty GC patrols.

Sayonara and buenos noches

Konnichiwa senore,

You have lost the access codes? I am not sure I understand, this is a very strange occurance.

I am forwarding Kusari system-standard codes to your computer now . . . upload is complete. Let me know if this fixes your problem. The gate at X=G.O Y=2.6 shouldn't be denying you access; after all, they even let the gas miners in there.

Thank you very much for the codes. I haven't lost them, because i did not have them before. Last time i used the gate, it was the crew of one of your gunships, which activated it.
Now as i have them, it will make my life much more easier. You can expect the next delivery soon.

Sayonara and buenos noches

Message To: Kumicho Ryuu
Comm ID: The Hand, CEO, The Bureau....Hogosha Security

Kumicho,

I find it a glorious day that The Black Dragons have obtained legal title to Tottori! A level of "legitimacy", much sought after by our forefathers, has finally been decreed by the Emporer!

This note is to let you know that following this acquisition, I have located offices to suit our internal Security Forces (The Bureau) on Kanagawa. My intended Plan is to make Kanagawa the ultimate repository for all Security related data, a safe area, whilst leaving day to day intelligence information gathering aboard the Golden Dragon and through our extensive network of agents in Kusari and... *cough* beyond.

Agents have been identified for the positions in mind and I await your approval to carry through this Plan.

Konnichiwa I think they say in Kusarian,

Deeply sorry to disrupt you, Hogoshans, but I am here, representing the smugglers of the Liberty Rogues. Earlier today, we entered Shikoku to try find some deals on Artefact with the Hogoshans, when one of those AFA fellows boarded us.
The AFA's warm welcome
Now, our ship wasn't harmed since we complied to his demand. But Hogoshans, will you accept to loose your hold of aterfact traffic in Liberty necause of such small issues?

It's all I had to say, my Private Message system is open for further discussion about this ''issue''.

Jessicka Leblanc,
Liberty Rogue Smuggler

Konnichiwa,

Yes that's how we say it in Japanese.

All artifacts going into Liberty come from the contract that the Hogosha currently have with the Lane Hackers, we bring our artifacts to them, they pay for them. Where they go from there doesn't matter one way or the other to us. If they choose to sell them to Rouges, that's their business.

I don't really care who buys them, if the Hackers don't, someone else will. We don't need any one particular group of you. As long as there is a market for artifacts in Liberty, someone will distribute them for us. We'd do it ourselves if it wasn't for the damned trash haulers getting in our way.

So frankly, the Farmer giving you trouble is of no concern to me. If the Farmer's have a problem with you, then you have a problem. A problem that has nothing to do with us.

And lets be honest here, do you really think the artifact trade would stop due to a conflict between the Rouges and the Farmer's Alliance? You're right, I'm sure the snooty, pompous fools in Liberty who buy these artifacts give a damn about the Liberty Rouges' conflicts enough to stop purchasing their toys just to prove a point. You go ahead and continue that train of thought, see where it gets you. Most likely just cut out of a very lucrative business... And that would hurt no one but yourselves.

Nagumo here. I'm afraid I must be brief.

Cardimine smuggling levels through Kusari space have skyrocketed lately. Smugglers running through the Tau's into Kyushu, New Tokyo, and out through Shikoku in the cases I observed. With Tomodachi and our brave new Kobun we have prevented two just this afternoon from running this filth through our space.

Also of note was that a Junker was one of the smugglers. Not only do they attempt to move in on our business, but they bring cardimine?! Unacceptable.

Keep eyes open, if you're on patrol there's a good chance you'll catch smugglers in core Kusari space.

Nagumo out.

I have picked up a full load of goods from the Lane Hackers.

They have requested we return a load of artifacts as soon as possible.

The goods include Diamonds, Luxury Food and counterfeit software.

Do you have a requested drop-off point? If not, I will drop them off at Kabukicho.

Hideaki out.

Konichiwa, Hitoyoshi here. During a little spin, I ran into a Freelancer piloting a Raba Armored Transport. I dont know how he was able to obtain this ship, but I'm sure he has to be put down...
