Thank you for the opportunity to be affiliated with the IND. Given the current state of affairs at the office I will deliver my papers to you in person. In addition to my own services I can also promise the availability of a weapons depot. I will be returning to Manhattan soon and look forward to seeing you then.

Romer, Thanks for the prompt response. We are currently in need of some get up and
go type of people round here, as the rest seem to have got up and gone sometime ago.
I will try to be around the office at a period to suit you, but the bar will probably be your
best option to catch up with me. If the forms are filled in and signed could you get the
rest to the broker for me aswell, on your way home.
Look forwards to working with you in the future. Weps are always handy in these trouble
times, the more the merrier.

Found some papers on the black market that seemed to belong to the [IND].
Maybe not the best way to enter, but some freaks might not realise, what I'm doing.
I filled in the forms and would like to enter the [IND]. Papers are on their way and
should reach you within a day. (At least, I payed the punk for that...)

As for the insurance-thing... I'd take that parking damage.-- Girls, you know...
The health-insurence can be given to the other side of my turret... maybe it works, there.

Waiting for your kind reply, to order some "well-payed" kids to bring the "[IND] Galapagos"-painting on its way

Captain Hawke here - good news!

* I have just received word that the hunter/explorer cruiser [IND]Exploration has finished it's exploration of the Sirius Sector and we can all use it's database. Also, the Exploration has returned with a full cargo of various Nomad Energy Weapons looted from the engagements as well as some CODENAME weapons from some legendary wrecks it encountered, all are passed to safe keeping in our armories.
I ordered dry dock at Newark to repair and refit.

* I have asked one of our traders, Fokke.Enterprise to spearhead the effort to find new attractive destinations for our luxury liners, his connections could be very helpfull

* Last but not least, I'd like to bid "Welcome" to the new affiliates.


I will take my personal shuttle to land at Manhattan and join Hoodlum at the Bar.

Hello there, another fine young thing wishing to join our ranks. Thats fine about the
papers being out there, at least they fell into the right hands I hope. I thought about
making a smart assed remark about a new secretarial position having opened up, but
felt in the light of your reputation, this could result in my having to claim on our
medical insurance, and my being away from the bar for to long.
So please just go ahead and get that ship resprayed in whatever shade of pink you think
will suit it. And welcome to our happy band of misfits

Damn glad to have you back in one piece old boy. I heard all sorts of rumours of your
demise, obviously exaggerated. How are the trip plans going, new trade routes
coming on line yet ? Bugger it, lets just get falling down drunk and try some of the
trial merchandise you always return from the border worlds with. My current stash
is running a little low. Off to the bar then.
That is all.

I suggest that we gather a shipment of new scanners to the Rheinland Military.
Make it a donation.
What happened earlier today is that a Rheinland officer thought he caught me smuggling. Luckily I was quicker than his guns and docked to New Berlin, being able to talk my way out of it. I had to sell the cargo I had in hope that his scanner ain't glitchy about diamonds. :)

Like the cut of your cloth old man, These military types do seem to using sub-standard
gear these days. Please add my name to the present ticket and I'll share the cost with
you. Pop in for a beer when you are next in Manhatten, you will find me you-know-
where.

Seems the young kids I hired to paint my ship have run off and left my ship painted half purple and the other half gray, no idea where the hell they went either. Not at all what I wanted them to do and not sure how far this will put me back. And now my auto-pilot is a bit twitchy.

Looks like I won't be able to do much trading for a while. In the mean time, I think I'll take my available funds and go on a shopping spree, enough shoes and handbags to fill a cargo pod. I'll let you know when I'm able to get back out there.

What's this all about new paint jobs girls, This is a working group not a fashion parade.
I'm all for a bit off tarting up the place, but please lets not get carried away.
And all this talk of hand bags and shoes, bit ecky for an old dog like myself, can we
stick to business here and not clutter the airwaves with that kind of chat. I'm in need
of good reliable pilots and ships, not a bunch of sweet things looking pretty round the
area. Get my drift.
That is all.

Why not have some pretty eye-candy hanging around?

While the pirates stare at those lovely visions of beauty we can either run like hell or blow those thieving pirates up.
