Blackfriar here.

Just like in other tasks I'm presented, I strive to complete the Lane Hacker path with perfection. In order to do that, I have started from the bottom, aiming towards rightfully reinstating my rank. I am presenting completion of the criterion detailed below.

Level 1

Distribution

The criterion was as trivial as it can be - I have manned the Runner and proceed towards New York in order to complete three import/export inter-House routes, as described in Lane Hacker operation manual. The operation went smoothly with minimal trouble from the Navy hounds.

Buffalo Base - Mactan Base
Buffalo Base - Leiden Base
Buffalo Base - Airdrie Base

Determination

As I was passing through California system, I have stumbled upon a Bretonia Mining and Manufacturing Shetland loaded with Plasmonic Metamaterials. I was being chased by a 6th Fleet battlecruiser so I had to quickly wrap things up and leave with no valid guncam of the cargo, but I have extorted one million out of him regardless.

Proof of extortion

Survivability

Just as I was doing a run towards Airdrie, I have stumbled upon a LSF spook. After the small exchange of words I engaged him and disposed of him quickly enough. That's one less bastard to worry about.

Proof of destruction

Level 2

Espionage

In order to pursue the higher rank, I have focused my efforts into pursuing the criterion that leads me to higher rank. With the completion of Espionage, I will complete the Level 2 Intelligence path. The intelligence I have gathered during the espionage operation on the Gallic front lines is detailed below.

With the invasion of Leeds nearing its end and the Gallic preparations to push into New London, the EFL Oil & Machinery has been appointed to reconstruct the Gate leading from Leeds towards New London. Should they use it to launch an invasion force or to strengthen their rule in Bretonia by establishing trade routes after the war is still not known, but the current situation is very suitable for our cause.

With the incoming large shipments of Gallic Gate and Lane parts that'll be used in construction of the Gate and Trade lane leading to it, we have a chance to re-direct our efforts in Leeds and seize larger amounts of the said cargo in hope it'll give us a deeper insight into how the Gallic Gates and Lanes operate and how they can be hacked and utilized.

In order to pursue this task, I have moved my newly commisioned L-584-B "Oasis"-class Passenger Liner to Leeds to conduct cargo interdiction.

I am submitting additional report to reach my currently primary goal - reinstating my former rank of Infiltrator and achieving Level 4 access.

Level 2

Ruthlessness

During my time in the Lane Hackers, I have extorted numerous transports. Below is the list of my previous reports that contain evidences of extortions.

Report 1 - 4 extortions
Report 2 - 1 extortion
Report 3 - 1 extortion
Report 4 - 1 extortion
Report 5 - 2 extortions

Level 3

Fraudulency

Evidence 1

As stated in the report mentioned above, Professor Yoshida has decided to test my knowledge of "Honeytrap" technique by luring a IDFS| transport out of his route into our ambush. Imposing as a Gallic Intelligence officer in distress, I have broadcasted a plea to vessel, asking for supplies - Food, Water and Fuel. The loyal captain did not hesitate to assist me, but he found nothing but Professor Yoshida's bomber and a long mania-interrogation that resulted in extraction of valuable intel, as well as cargo extortion.

Subterfuge

During one of his extortions, Professor Yoshida has sensed the eagerness and little to no judgement coming from the subject, so he suggested me to investigate. In my initial interrogation, mister Joe Pickens has expressed his willingness to work with the Lane Hackers and support our goal. In addition to the few small tasks I have appointed him to do in order to prove his loyalty, he was requested to deliver a large load of Cardamine to Planet Manhattan in order to boost our economy, which he has done.

Proof of communication

Insidiousness

Spyglass Scanner has reported a movement of Interspace Commerce vessel which Professor Yoshida reported of in the past. Using the vector analysis, I have calculated that he will be moving through Omegas to unload the cargo he has picked up in Munich. The calculations were correct as he took the route and was halted in Cambridge, Omega 3 Gate. He shown no resistance to our demands and transfered 3,000,000 SC to my Neural Net account.

Good day.

Deadliness.

The day have started with a call for assistance from Mr. Largo through our secure channels, to which i have reacted as soon as i could. Upon arriving on a scene, i have found Mr.Largo accompanied by a couple of flunkies, belonging to 5th| Fleet and Office of National Security respectively. The combat soon emerged, in which Mr. Largo wasn't taking part as his vessel wasn't really suited for snubcraft combat, hense why he was forced to disengage and leave me in toe-to-toe combat with those two milksops.
One of them was sloppy enough to get dusted with chained mine detonation, as soon as it was done - the other wretch immediately jumped into a fight, leaving me little to no chances to disengage. Unfortunately, i had to patch up the breaches at Mactan as it was concluded.

Proof of destruction.

Log #1

As the day moved on and the breaches were patched up, I have moved back to California, and eventually stumbled into a Gallic warship accompanied with a smaller strike craft, that appeared to be a bomber. They have shown some negative attitude, fortunately, being capable of nothing but loud talks. Looks like they are as pathetic as our own Naval milksops. On latter, the scene was adorned with Forlorn wretch, that later on decided to crawl back into the hole he climbed out of, a ironically unlucky Bounty Hunter, one weird contact that happened to carry pieces of Nomad equipment aboard, and the actual squid, which was already hell of a gathering. Upon gathering as much data as i could from the safe distance, i quickly moved away from this freaks' party, that have ended up with Maltese warships showing up and forcing Valors to retreat as the combat emerged.

[22.05.2018 01:12:26] MRG|Eloi_Leclerc: Bonjour, sir.
[22.05.2018 01:12:27] MRG|RNS-Bonne.Naissance: Pierre: Bien. Un 'Ackeur came 'ere. Zhey refused to leave, so we opened fire and dropped zheir shield.
[22.05.2018 01:12:36] MRG|RNS-Le_Temeraire: Bien.
[22.05.2018 01:12:40] MRG|RNS-Bonne.Naissance: Pierre: Zhen zhey left. Zhey mentioned being at war wizh zhe Libertie Navie.

[22.05.2018 01:12:58] MRG|RNS-Le_Temeraire: I thought they took a liking to shooting at our pilots for profit.

[22.05.2018 01:13:23] MRG|RNS-Le_Temeraire: If the Libertonians don't pay them for interfering with us, then who does ?
[22.05.2018 01:13:33] MRG|RNS-Bonne.Naissance: Pierre: Bretoniens?
[22.05.2018 01:13:37] MRG|RNS-Le_Temeraire: Surely those nerds have no stakes in this war.
[22.05.2018 01:13:40] Felicity': "Fools."

[22.05.2018 01:14:43] Felicity': "It's a priority question."
[22.05.2018 01:14:52] Felicity': "And you are certainly a higher threat."
[22.05.2018 01:14:54] MRG|RNS-Le_Temeraire: A priority, then. Curious.
[22.05.2018 01:15:00] MRG|RNS-Le_Temeraire: To whom ? You and your operations ?
[22.05.2018 01:15:16] Felicity': "This should be the least of your concerns."
[22.05.2018 01:15:19] MRG|RNS-Le_Temeraire: Are you so fond of this government, madame ?
[22.05.2018 01:15:35] Felicity': "We are not fond of local corporations, mostly."

[22.05.2018 01:15:49] Felicity': "Those disgusting tyrants should burn, suffer and beeld."
[22.05.2018 01:16:10] Felicity': "My mind is far more mature than yours, to be honest."

[22.05.2018 01:16:31] MRG|RNS-Le_Temeraire: *She chuckles* Oh, so it is, then. If you say so !
[22.05.2018 01:16:57] Felicity': "Monsieur Leclerc, would you mind coming closer a bit?"
[22.05.2018 01:17:00] MRG|RNS-Le_Temeraire: Outstanding. At least we share your view on Libertonian corporations.
[22.05.2018 01:17:12] MRG|RNS-Le_Temeraire: You will do nothing of the sort, Leclerc.
[22.05.2018 01:17:15] MRG|Eloi_Leclerc: I don't feel the need to prove myself against common criminals.
[22.05.2018 01:17:34] Felicity': "Common criminals. You are indeed so naive."
[22.05.2018 01:17:43] MRG|RNS-Bonne.Naissance: Pierre: Amiral, should I halt fire at zhe girl zhen, if not fired upon? I ssink our noble laws of war forbid killing minors.
[22.05.2018 01:17:58] MRG|RNS-Le_Temeraire: Ah, but you have given us no cause for thinking otherwise, child.
[22.05.2018 01:18:25] MRG|RNS-Le_Temeraire: Gallia treats all fairly, and gives all what they deserve.
[22.05.2018 01:19:12] MRG|RNS-Le_Temeraire: Your little undergraduates club has not particularly impressed His Majesty thus far.
[22.05.2018 01:19:16] Felicity': "Oh, should you step any further - and we will make sure to treat you with both fairness and kindness."
[22.05.2018 01:19:18] MRG|RNS-Bonne.Naissance: Pierre: Bien. Zhen we will give zhe girl a spanking, but we will make sure to pick up zhe pod and not leave it in space.
[22.05.2018 01:19:20] MRG|RNS-Le_Temeraire: You are correct, Thouars.
[22.05.2018 01:19:45] MRG|RNS-Le_Temeraire: Veiled threats, now.
[22.05.2018 01:19:54] MRG|RNS-Le_Temeraire: The tired repertoire of the Libertonian underclass again, and again, and again.
[22.05.2018 01:20:08] Felicity': "This space will always be cold and hostile to you."
[22.05.2018 01:20:12] Felicity': "You are not welcome here."
[22.05.2018 01:20:15] MRG|RNS-Le_Temeraire: Surely they've all been spawned from the same hivemind !
[22.05.2018 01:20:28] MRG|RNS-Le_Temeraire: We were never welcome here, child.
[22.05.2018 01:20:33] MRG|RNS-Le_Temeraire: That is the very reason of our presence.
[22.05.2018 01:20:44] MRG|RNS-Le_Temeraire: Your countrymates wanted us dead and forgotten;
[22.05.2018 01:20:45] Felicity': "That's why you all should leave - or die."
[22.05.2018 01:21:09] MRG|RNS-Le_Temeraire: *She barks a loud, cruel laughter* Again with your silly threats ! What do you hope to accomplish ?!
[22.05.2018 01:21:25] MRG|RNS-Bonne.Naissance: Pierre: Amiral, I insist you stop injuring zhe girl's sense of maturity. She might start crying. I will 'ave to turn off my
[22.05.2018 01:21:27] MRG|RNS-Le_Temeraire: We have endured for a millenium ! We have survived the greatest betrayal in history !
[22.05.2018 01:21:27] MRG|RNS-Bonne.Naissance: speakers zhen.
[22.05.2018 01:21:36] MRG|RNS-Bonne.Naissance: Pierre: And I will not be able to 'ear what you say.
[22.05.2018 01:21:42] Felicity': "I wish to taunt you into your snubcraft and proove you how miserable you are."
[22.05.2018 01:21:54] MRG|RNS-Le_Temeraire: Against all odds, against the vilest treacheries, we have endured.
[22.05.2018 01:21:57] Felicity': "Then you will share the grim destiny of the likes of you, milksop."
[22.05.2018 01:22:16] MRG|RNS-Le_Temeraire: And now, unsurprisingly, those who wronged us are doing everything they can to send us back to where we came from.
[22.05.2018 01:22:38] Felicity': "And you will be sent back to where you came from."
[22.05.2018 01:22:41] MRG|RNS-Le_Temeraire: And you, little college failure that you are, you come and throw your little teenage threats at me.
[22.05.2018 01:23:12] MRG|RNS-Le_Temeraire: The lion should not spare a glance for the ant, yet I do. Appreciate this.
[22.05.2018 01:23:15] Felicity': "You may bark whatever you please from your giant rusty replica of a warship"
[22.05.2018 01:23:25] Felicity': "Truth shall remain unchanged."
[22.05.2018 01:23:52] MRG|RNS-Le_Temeraire: And what is that truth you're so adamant about, then, child ?
[22.05.2018 01:24:15] Felicity': "You're certain and painful dimishment."
[22.05.2018 01:24:29] Felicity': "A downfall - if you wish."
[22.05.2018 01:24:38] MRG|RNS-Le_Temeraire: The words of a military strategist, no doubt.
[22.05.2018 01:24:52] MRG|RNS-Le_Temeraire: I'll be certain to pass on this grave and well documented omen to his Majesty.
[22.05.2018 01:25:13] MRG|RNS-Le_Temeraire: Ah ! More murderers for hire.
[22.05.2018 01:25:17] MRG|RNS-Le_Temeraire: Excellent.
[22.05.2018 01:25:20] Felicity': "You would benefit slightly more from digging some graves."
[22.05.2018 01:25:38] MRG|RNS-Le_Temeraire: Repartee, now. The child has some degree of sass.

[22.05.2018 01:26:20] Felicity': "Hey, Forlorn. We have some nasty frogs here."
[22.05.2018 01:26:28] MRG|Eloi_Leclerc: HA, such threats from a simple highwayman!
[22.05.2018 01:26:31] Felicity': "Temporary ceasefire until we remove them?"
[22.05.2018 01:26:39] Forlorn|-Ike.Haxton: I wonder how well could those two battleships cover for their bomber.
[22.05.2018 01:26:53] Forlorn|-Ike.Haxton: I decide things like that on the fly.
[22.05.2018 01:27:05] Forlorn|-Ike.Haxton: Depending on what suits my interest the most, of course.
[22.05.2018 01:27:15] Felicity': "Bonne applies his pulses on a solid distance. To a static target, however."
[22.05.2018 01:27:18] MRG|RNS-Bonne.Naissance: Pierre: I am Contre-Amiral Vicomte Pierre Vincent Dupetit-Thouars de Plateau des Coucous, and I invite you to try.
[22.05.2018 01:27:35] Felicity': "You are a frog. Just like any other Gaul."
[22.05.2018 01:27:41] MRG|RNS-Le_Temeraire: Chanteloup : we've no time for this, Thouars...
[22.05.2018 01:27:41] Felicity': "Miserable, despisable frog."
[22.05.2018 01:27:56] MRG|RNS-Le_Temeraire: And you spout cliches like a saturday morning cartoon.
[22.05.2018 01:28:10] MRG|RNS-Le_Temeraire: Your lack of imagination belies your short education.
[22.05.2018 01:28:10] Felicity': "There are truth behind the cliches."
[22.05.2018 01:28:17] MRG|RNS-Bonne.Naissance: Pierre: We are currently waiting for zhe Libertie flotte. I say iss is a good pastime, practising our gunneurs on zhese
[22.05.2018 01:28:18] Forlorn|-Ike.Haxton: There's nothing wrong with cartoons huh.
[22.05.2018 01:28:18] MRG|RNS-Bonne.Naissance: paisants.
[22.05.2018 01:28:30] MRG|RNS-Le_Temeraire: I suppose you're not wrong, Thouars.
[22.05.2018 01:28:43] Felicity': "Unfortunately, i pass half of your 'offending' words, dear baguette eaters."
[22.05.2018 01:28:54] Forlorn|-Ike.Haxton: I wonder how good of a pastime would mister Leclerc have at Sugarland.
[22.05.2018 01:28:56] MRG|RNS-Le_Temeraire: Cartoons can be fine, I suppose, although the Libertonian dross does not equal SUPERDUPONT.
[22.05.2018 01:29:14] Felicity': "He would have way better vacation on Malta."
[22.05.2018 01:29:17] MRG|RNS-Le_Temeraire: Baguette eaters, now. Truly, you regale us with increased originality and thought by the minute.
[22.05.2018 01:29:18] Felicity': "As a slave."
[22.05.2018 01:29:45] MRG|RNS-Le_Temeraire: *She sighs* Why must we waste our time with this cesspool of a nation again...
[22.05.2018 01:30:03] Felicity': "Then you may as well crawl back into your hellhole."
[22.05.2018 01:30:29] MRG|RNS-Bonne.Naissance: Pierre: Majestique eloquence, mon amiral.
[22.05.2018 01:30:35] Forlorn|-Ike.Haxton: And who the hell is this?
[22.05.2018 01:30:43] Matsu-7|Aoi: Yea, who the hell is this?
[22.05.2018 01:31:00] MRG|RNS-Le_Temeraire: I don't call the shots, girl, this place would be much different otherwise.
[22.05.2018 01:31:14] MRG|RNS-Bonne.Naissance: Pierre: Our scanneur registres Libertie armament, but also pieces of... whas is zhis?
[22.05.2018 01:31:15] Felicity': "It's transponder is scrambled..."
[22.05.2018 01:31:18] MRG|RNS-Le_Temeraire: Oh, another character enters the scene
[22.05.2018 01:31:22] MRG|RNS-Bonne.Naissance: Pierre: Non, zhis cannot be 'umaine...
[22.05.2018 01:31:30] Forlorn|-Ike.Haxton: That is a lot of targets.
[22.05.2018 01:31:34] Forlorn|-Ike.Haxton: A whole damn lot.
[22.05.2018 01:31:51] Felicity': "Those two hugging the battleships are in higher priority."
[22.05.2018 01:31:59] Forlorn|-Ike.Haxton: Perhaps.
[22.05.2018 01:32:02] MRG|RNS-Le_Temeraire: *Chanteloup barks at one of her crew* Give me a proper readout ! This is nonsensical garbage !
[22.05.2018 01:32:06] Felicity': "We can settle our quarrels later, bounty hunter."
[22.05.2018 01:32:26] Matsu-7|Aoi: You there.
[22.05.2018 01:32:29] Matsu-7|Aoi: I need some of these.
[22.05.2018 01:32:35] Matsu-7|Aoi: Thanks.
[22.05.2018 01:32:40] MRG|RNS-Le_Temeraire: What do you mean, "unregistered" ? This is a GALLIC SCANNER ! It knows EVERYTHING !
[22.05.2018 01:32:54] Matsu-7|Aoi: Does it know where I'm from?
[22.05.2018 01:33:04] Forlorn|-Ike.Haxton: He's just a civilian is he?
[22.05.2018 01:33:17] Matsu-7|Aoi: Yes of course.
[22.05.2018 01:33:18] Felicity': "Civilian ship. Apparently, a mining vessel."
[22.05.2018 01:33:23] MRG|RNS-Le_Temeraire: *Chanteloup looks back at her communication screen, growls something and it goes mute as she continues barking at her crew*

[22.05.2018 01:33:32] Matsu-7|Aoi: I was shot earlier though, someone thought I wasn't a civilian.
[22.05.2018 01:33:39] MRG|RNS-Bonne.Naissance: Pierre: I am amazed zhat zhey were able to develop such.
[22.05.2018 01:34:00] MRG|RNS-Le_Temeraire: Right. I have decided that the scanner might be malfunctioning.
[22.05.2018 01:34:11] MRG|RNS-Le_Temeraire: Anyhow, there is something strange happening here, gentlemen. Stay on your toes.
[22.05.2018 01:34:17] Matsu-7|Aoi: I am in fact - jamming your scanners.

[22.05.2018 01:34:33] Felicity': "And why would a civilian have such equipment?"
[22.05.2018 01:34:36] MRG|RNS-Bonne.Naissance: Pierre: Iss was made in Ile de France itself, amiral! Iss cannot malfoncsion!
[22.05.2018 01:34:39] Matsu-7|Aoi: Of course.

[22.05.2018 01:35:00] Forlorn|-Ike.Haxton: Uhh.
[22.05.2018 01:35:07] MRG|RNS-Le_Temeraire: Non non, it cannot ! Merely a temporary glitch.
[22.05.2018 01:35:15] Messina: Sanchez: Move in close range.
[22.05.2018 01:35:18] MRG|RNS-Bonne.Naissance: Pierre: Temporary. Bien sur.

[22.05.2018 01:35:27] Shauna.Vayne: what is going on here
[22.05.2018 01:35:28] Felicity': "It is about time to take the garbage out."
[22.05.2018 01:35:32] MRG|RNS-Le_Temeraire: I have little clue.
[22.05.2018 01:35:35] Matsu-7|Aoi: Nothing, this is a diplomatic meeting.
[22.05.2018 01:35:49] Matsu-7|Aoi: Please vacate the area, bounty hunters are not welcome here!
[22.05.2018 01:35:57] MNS-Telasero: Alonzo: Ah, it seems the invaders are making progress.
[22.05.2018 01:36:00] Forlorn|-Ike.Haxton: I see some Maltese.

[22.05.2018 01:36:03] Matsu-7|Aoi: I speak with the authority of the Roi!
[22.05.2018 01:36:04] MRG|RNS-Le_Temeraire: This sounds more aggressive although still wimpery. Right, fleet : weapons free on anything that looks at you funny.
[22.05.2018 01:36:24] MRG|RNS-Bonne.Naissance: Pierre: Amiral! Sarissa classe, 12 o'clock. 'Ardlie a threat.
[22.05.2018 01:36:32] Felicity': "Maltese warships, we will gladly lend you a hand on this one."
[22.05.2018 01:36:35] MNS-Telasero: Alonzo: Somebody will have to help these Libertonian idiots, I suppose.
[22.05.2018 01:36:38] MRG|RNS-Bonne.Naissance: Pierre: I sujest letting zhem do 'arm to Libertie. Et engage only if fired upon.
[22.05.2018 01:36:40] Felicity': "Powering weapons."

[22.05.2018 01:36:45] Matsu-7|Aoi: Oui oui! Get them felicity!
[22.05.2018 01:36:47] Forlorn|-Ike.Haxton: Oh god.

Espionage.

In addition to the above encounters, allow me to mention somewhat special encounter with a vessel bearing Synth Foods identifier. I have caught it's sight in California, near Riverside station, and tracked it all the way down to Texas. It was carrying a full hold of Platinum Ore, and, apparently, departed from Alberta not too long ago. At first, i have followed general extortion sequence and asked him for a feasible donation of 7.500.000 S.C., as per our operational protocols, but on the latter, the milksop expressed his desire to cooperate, and provided me with a piece of information that might be somewhat valuable.
The group that vessel belonged to, LTT, that stands for Liberty Terraforming and Technologies appears to be a counterpart of Bretonian Planetform, althrough utilising much more harsh and radical methods in alteration of planet's Bio Sphere, basically replacing it with other species, while still applying general terraforming sequence used by Planetform. As per their words, this deemed to be possible due to little to no regulations of Terraforming in Liberty laws. Full logs of the conversation are attached below.

Log #3

[22.05.2018 15:20:37] Felicity': "Petty milksop sighted. Cut your engines."
[22.05.2018 15:21:45] Felicity': "Bad idea."
[22.05.2018 15:23:13] Felicity': "Stop now."
[22.05.2018 15:23:27] LTT|-Newton: What do you want?
[22.05.2018 15:23:53] Felicity': "Considering the cargo you are carrying - 7.5 millions Sirius Credits."
[22.05.2018 15:24:34] LTT|-Newton: Hmm.
[22.05.2018 15:24:45] Felicity': "Process the transaction, do not test my patience."
[22.05.2018 15:24:49] LTT|-Newton: How about some intel plus five millions?
[22.05.2018 15:24:56] Felicity': "Intel, you say?"
[22.05.2018 15:25:05] Felicity': "What would it be?"
[22.05.2018 15:25:09] LTT|-Newton: Yes, thought you might be interested
[22.05.2018 15:25:29] Felicity': "Let's see what do you have to offer."
[22.05.2018 15:26:01] LTT|-Newton: Yes about LTT's activities. Unless you already know, of course.
[22.05.2018 15:26:45] Felicity': "That would still be useful. Unless you are going to lie, of course."
[22.05.2018 15:27:35] LTT|-Newton: So what do you know about us?
[22.05.2018 15:27:55] Felicity': "Personally - little to nothing."
[22.05.2018 15:29:18] LTT|-Newton: LTT stands for Liberty Terraforming and Technology.
[22.05.2018 15:30:00] LTT|-Newton: And yes indeed many LTT members are geologists, ecologists and all sorts of professions researching for revolutionary ways
[22.05.2018 15:30:05] LTT|-Newton: to terraform a planet.
[22.05.2018 15:30:22] Felicity': "And what exactly, by a chance, can make you 'different' from all the other bunch of corrupted Libertonian corporate milksops?"
[22.05.2018 15:30:56] LTT|-Newton: We develop technologies to terraform a planet. Radically. Bio-engineering. Introducing new invasive species. Anything.
[22.05.2018 15:31:12] LTT|-Newton: The goal is to become much more efficient that the Bretonian Planetform Inc.
[22.05.2018 15:31:20] Felicity': "That is exciting, but throw me a real bone here."
[22.05.2018 15:31:40] LTT|-Newton: Here's the bone.
[22.05.2018 15:31:42] Felicity': "Some radical success, for example."
[22.05.2018 15:31:57] Felicity': "Or scientific breakthrough."
[22.05.2018 15:32:23] LTT|-Newton: Our approach is much more aggressive than Planetform's.
[22.05.2018 15:32:51] Felicity': "Well, honestly. There is a question to rise - for which sake do you work."
[22.05.2018 15:32:52] LTT|-Newton: If Planetform is scrutinized and even attacked by Gaian terrorists, imagine the outcry if our tests are publicized.
[22.05.2018 15:33:14] Felicity': "Science for the sake of science, or science for the sake of money and unjust revenues?"
[22.05.2018 15:33:33] Felicity': "I'd assume they would be not too fond of you, either."
[22.05.2018 15:33:39] LTT|-Newton: The bigger fish always eating the smaller fish
[22.05.2018 15:33:49] LTT|-Newton: I don't think they know about us to be honest.
[22.05.2018 15:34:10] Felicity': "Not unless you public some of your achievements."
[22.05.2018 15:34:24] LTT|-Newton: This will come eventually
[22.05.2018 15:34:39] LTT|-Newton: If our radical tests on Planet Edmonton bear fruit.
[22.05.2018 15:34:57] Felicity': "So, how exactly do you do your job? What is it so revolutional and agressive about your approach that makes you noteworthy?"
[22.05.2018 15:36:05] LTT|-Newton: Planetform only uses terraforming gases, drops chemicals on the ground.
[22.05.2018 15:36:40] LTT|-Newton: We are introducing species, both on the molecular level and on larger sizes which aggressively attack the local flora and fauna
[22.05.2018 15:37:00] LTT|-Newton: While releasing chemicals and gases -- the ones we want.
[22.05.2018 15:37:24] Felicity': "So, basically, you bring different species to wipe out and replace the existing ones along with general terraforming."
[22.05.2018 15:37:58] LTT|-Newton: Yes, Planetform is handicapped by strict regulations
[22.05.2018 15:38:11] LTT|-Newton: However we are small and far from the public eye
[22.05.2018 15:38:29] LTT|-Newton: And we also make use of Liberty's lax laws on terraforming.
[22.05.2018 15:39:33] Felicity': "Interesting. Very interesting. How exactly, if i may inquire?"
[22.05.2018 15:39:45] LTT|-Newton: How, what?
[22.05.2018 15:40:21] Felicity': "I mean, you've developed some way to avoid the local terraforming regulations, as your methods are..."
[22.05.2018 15:40:28] Felicity': "... harsh, to say the least."
[22.05.2018 15:40:32] LTT|-Newton: We are not avoiding the laws
[22.05.2018 15:40:59] LTT|-Newton: It is simply the fact that Liberty has few regulations and oversight on terraforming research and methods compared to Bretonia
[22.05.2018 15:41:13] LTT|-Newton: Where Planetform Inc. is based on
[22.05.2018 15:41:25] Felicity': "So, basically, the lack of those regulations unties your hands to act the way you do."
[22.05.2018 15:41:32] LTT|-Newton: Exactly.

Blackfriar here.

I am submitting another report on the career criterion I have completed.

Level 2

Reconnaissance

Under the command of mister Thackeray, the convoy has departed from Leiden Base and I have been appointed escort & reconnaissance role. With my extensive knowledge of the route and Kusari Naval Forces movements and usual patrol routes, I have guided the convoy safely through Shikoku, Kyushu and Taus to safely reach Planet Malta with a load of Counterfeit Software. Moving one step ahead of them and informing them of upcoming threats we moved back to Leiden. On our way, we encountered two vessels we skillfully evaded. After leaving the safety of Omicrons and crossing the Kyushu off the lanes and rushing through Shikoku, we arrived to Leiden with a load of Cardamine without any problems.

Barter

Some time ago I was bartering an advanced equipment trade with the Junker Marauders. Purchasing several Light Cloaks off them and a Advanced Cloak. During the deal, they have proposed a larger business deal to happen, which I negotiated through and contributed to the Lane Hacker cause by opening a re-sell point for interdicted goods of high value - Various ores. Also, we have received a sellpoint for Cardamine withmuch higher purchase price than our currently available ones.

Transmission to Junker Marauders

Industriousness

Trivial enough, I have completed three smuggling routes as described in the Manual.

Eccomoy Base - Golden Dragon Casino
Vogtland Base - Niverton Base
Planet Malta - Leiden Base

Level 3

Diplomacy

In our efforts to keep the location of Leiden Base secret and away from the prying eyes of public, we have decided to remove Junkers installation under the name of "EJ_Enterprises" from the close perimeter of Leiden and punish the owner for not consulting us prior to construction of it. With the Lane Hacker limited manpower, I have been appointed by Professor Provocateur Yoshida to arrange a meeting with Blood Dragons representative and arrange a diplomatic deal. The meeting took place on Freeport 11 and the deal has been made. As a direct result of successful negotiations, the Shogun's fleet has arrived in Galileo the next day and with combined strength of our Retaliators and numerous Blood Dragon capital vessels, we have destroyed the installation and propagated a harsh message we are a force not to be reckoned with.

Felicity here,

It is time for another regular report.

Level 1.

Survivability.

A brief encounter with not too talkative, but quite nasty Bounty Hunter that thought he would withstand against my Bloom. He was quickly made to regret his decision to fight prior to opportunity of running away.

Proof of identification.
Proof of destruction.

Determination.

A surprisingly slippery cockalorum came to a conclusion that he can slip through a true Hacker. It was intercepted, thus proven to be wrong, and extorted a feasible amount of credits.

Proof of identification.
Cargo contained.
Proof of extortion.

Level 2.

Subversion.

Quite a fruitful day occured prior to the aforementioned extortion of "slippery cockalorum" in Bering, including two corporate wretches liberated from a feasible amount of their ill-gotten profits. A reasonable amount, of course, and a pleasant day for me.

Ageira milksop:
Proof of identification.
Proof of 'voluntarily donation'.

On a side note - the aforementioned milksop indeed provided me with such sum voluntarily, without any prior pressure from my side.

Log #1

=DSE- flunky:
Proof of identification.
Low-value cargo.
Proof of extortion.

Ruthlessness.

On the same fruitful day of hunt in Hudson system, two more milksops were caught mid-flight, with somewhat valuable cargo, which was a load of ore - and, of course - liberated from reasonable amount of Sirius Credits.

Interspace hoodlum:
