Dear Sir Buchanan,

I'm Tobby Gladstone of the Company Planetform Inc., as you know.

Anyway's I would like to schedule a meeting, The location would be on Canterbury station. My CEO, Ms. Elizabeth Raynes, will also be there. You can bring your Director of Trade and/or Representative.

As per your request of our current Operations, you should know that we have halted Terraforming on Harris due to the war. California Minor is still being Terraformed, and is nearly done. Planet Ayr is on hold for now, due to Gaian attacks. Planet Atka in Hudson has been put to the side due to Liberty and Rheinland's fail diplomacy.

Now, seeing as your schedule is a busy as ours. You can set the time, seeing how I set the location. It would be great to meet you in person.

Signed

A lengthy Gold / Neon / Food trip today. The details of the run can be found in the attached shipping log.

The only incident of interest was when Bushido Blue, a Lane Hacker gunship, attempted to pirate the Gibraltar in California. As we had a head start on the gunship, we headed for Planet Los Angeles for the Liberty Navy to deal with the Hacker. The Yukon destroyed the foolish pirate in seconds after he tried to rob us in the planet's orbit.

Subject: Trade Report

Greetings all, Another report here, with Somewhat Bad news, but not all bad... The Hastings and Hampshire hooked up for a Convoy run from Dublin to Hamburg, and Stuttgart to New London... Unfortunately On the way to Altona Station in Hamburg with the Gold, we ran into two LWB and a Brundsche pilot in New Berlin, who Demanded 1 Mil Each... from Each of us, totaling 6 Million, We tried talking them down a bit since Neither of us could really afford it, but their response was Simply: Gateway can Afford it, and started counting down from 10, so I paid the full 6Mil Just as a Battleship and Bounty Hunter arrived, the cowards fled with the money, and On we went, the rest of the trip was without incident, even with the Encounter, our Combined total of 4000 Gold Brought in Enough to about Break Even, and on the return trip to New London with Luxury Food, We made some Pocket Change

Signed,
Trip Sabor of the Hastings

Subject: New Hires and New DTO

Greetings All,

Our ranks continue to swell, I'm pleased to announce! We welcome three new trade captains in particular: Mr. James Wheatly (Mayhem) of the Hampshire, Mr. Dwane McColley (McColleyClan) of the Broxtowe II and Mr. Wiliam Wright (Zamolxes) of the Greenwich. Welcome, captains - we are very happy to have you!

In other news, Mr. Gunther Koch, who has acted in the capacity of Director of Trade Operations for the past year, is stepping down from that post. Mr. Koch will remain Vice-Chair of the Board of Directors as well as a senior trader, and will act as Special Diplomatic Envoy for Gateway. Mr. Charles Dee, formerly ADTO, has been appointed to the DTO position. He will assume these new duties next week, following a short holiday.

We therefore have at least one, but probably two ADTO positions open, considering our trade fleet. If you are interested in the ADTO position, please contact Mr. Dee or myself for information.

This brings our staff listing to the following:

Mr. Wright,

Thank you for your prompt trade report. I am pleased your first venture was so profitable.

I would ask that you pay particular attention to our corporate diplomacy, however. Several of your destinations are either Junker or Daumann, and with neither of them do we do business. Junkers are known to be quite active in criminal activity, and Daumann is the chief rival of our Rheinland allies. It seems there was no harm done in this instance, but you never know when the authorities or our allies will notice our whereabouts. Gateway prides itself on its ethical standards, professionalism, and loyalty to allies - we must be cautious in that regard at all times.

Note: To all of our new employees, please look through the past several pages of this comm channel, and I believe you will find an assortment of routes conducted by senior traders that are both diplomatically fitting and lucrative. Within the next week or so, we hope to have a working master route list available to you all.

Safe travels!

Alisdair Buchanan

Greetings. first full time running i droped my hold of neon at the Cambridge research station and picked up a supply of air to take to the battleship hood. after a uneventful flight i droped my air and picked up gold at Hood. while heading back to the new york system through the magellen system i was acosted by a single lane hacker in a underpowered dagger. he demanded money and after i refused opened fire. i fired a warning shot and took out his shield. he continued the fight and i proceaded to turn him into scrap metal thanks to the help of my gunner Mikol. after that i contuinued my trip to fort bush to drop my gold off. haveing done that i hooked up with the Hasting and followed him around. i do not remember all the stops we made. but the profit was good. i have since parked at the battleship hood to go down for minor repairs and some R&R after dumping my log.
Final blessing to all. may the gods of profit smile on each and every one of you.

Subject: Trade Report

Hello everyone, hope you are all well,
I was just about to start my run for this evening when i was hailed by Admiral Nelson of the BAF.
He asked if i would re-supply the Embassy in New York after its refit. Of course i said yes, but to my surprise it was the Ambassador, Lord William Henri Braterford, his crew and guests along with some supplies.
A fine sight the convoy made on its way to New York. The GlenCoe with an armed escort of BAF ships from New London to California where we were met by Liberty Navy ships as well. So the Glencoe with BAF and Liberty Navy escort made its way to Manhattan to deliver Lord Braterford and guests to the Embassy.
Safely and well rested i might add.
This, i would say, is a feather in Gateways cap and a poke in the eye for the other Bretonian tradeing firms.

On another note a hearty welcome from me to all the new people who have joined us in our great adventure. Welcome aboard the Gateway family.

Calum out
