Good day Executive Offices,

Myself and the ship AWES-The.Gypsy were fulfilling some of the OS&C ask for Liberty Ale when we came across a bounty hunter and Rheinland Military chatting on open channels on our approach. Things seemed quiet as per their responses so we proceeded to Planet Baden Baden without any unnecessary delays.

Local lawfuls in New Berlin

[01.10.2022 20:34:59] Hitman-76: Lock: Always hated junkers, lets get this over with...
[01.10.2022 20:35:09] Hitman-76: Lock: Oh, greetings there.
[01.10.2022 20:35:13] AWES-Resolution: Good day Hitman-76!
[01.10.2022 20:35:17] AWES-Resolution: Good day [RM]Bmn.Trau.Habermeyer!
[01.10.2022 20:35:24] [RM]Bmn.Trau.Habermeyer: Hated even? Oh, guten Tag there.
[01.10.2022 20:35:41] AWES-Resolution: how are lanes looking for safety today? Anything we need to worry about?
[01.10.2022 20:35:52] Hitman-76: Lock: Nothing on my scanners in the last few hours.
[01.10.2022 20:36:07] [RM]Bmn.Trau.Habermeyer: There was, and please do not be too alarmed, a very short sighting of a Hessian battleship here in New Berlin.
[01.10.2022 20:36:13] Hitman-76: Lock: Oh, besides that...
[01.10.2022 20:36:15] [RM]Bmn.Trau.Habermeyer: But it vanished from Rheinwehr scanners quickly.
[01.10.2022 20:36:35] AWES-Resolution: Glad to hear it. Our routes have been fairly unhindered today.
[01.10.2022 20:36:50] AWES-Resolution: we appreciate your efforts for the sake of security!
[01.10.2022 20:36:54] Hitman-76: Lock: Good to hear.
[01.10.2022 20:36:56] [RM]Bmn.Trau.Habermeyer: The Rheinwehr is actively hunting it as we speak, so except that ... nothing out of the ordinary. Likewise, glad to hear this.
[01.10.2022 20:37:00] AWES-Resolution: safe skies
[01.10.2022 20:37:07] Hitman-76: Lock: You aswell.
[01.10.2022 20:37:12] [RM]Bmn.Trau.Habermeyer: But of course, secure trade lanes guarantee prosperity. Safe travels, AWES vessels.
[01.10.2022 20:37:13] Hitman-76: Lock: Say hello to any of my brothers.

Sincerely,

Vern Weber

Good day Executive Offices,

My crew and I were performing our base material supply runs for Convergence in Tau-31 when we happened across an impatient FLG operative near the Freeport in Tau-29. I think by the name of 'Boochez'? Whatever he wants with this 'Hodge' character, it sounds like they are in need of a response quickly - I'm just assuming you guys already know of this. I know unless it was seen as a major threat, we'd likely not hear about it out in the trenches.

A conversation with FLG from Baffin - Oct 3

[03.10.2022 17:03:08] [FLG]Baffin.Protecteur: Oi!
[03.10.2022 17:03:11] [FLG]Baffin.Protecteur: You there
[03.10.2022 17:03:12] AWES-Aspiration: Good day, [FLG]Baffin.Protecteur!
[03.10.2022 17:03:26] [FLG]Baffin.Protecteur: This is boucher, I am an impatient man!
[03.10.2022 17:03:43] [FLG]Baffin.Protecteur: Do you know this Hodge guy?
[03.10.2022 17:03:59] AWES-Aspiration: Oh,well how can I assist? Hodge?
[03.10.2022 17:04:09] [FLG]Baffin.Protecteur: Oui, Hodge, you heard of him?
[03.10.2022 17:04:18] AWES-Aspiration: hmmm
[03.10.2022 17:04:33] AWES-Aspiration: I think we have a resource out in Bretonia...
[03.10.2022 17:04:40] AWES-Aspiration: or independent space nearby
[03.10.2022 17:04:48] AWES-Aspiration: What about him?
[03.10.2022 17:04:55] [FLG]Baffin.Protecteur: Whatcha talking about, Hodge I spoke to
[03.10.2022 17:05:10] [FLG]Baffin.Protecteur: I send him a message, and you AWES - and there's no reply yet!
[03.10.2022 17:05:25] [FLG]Baffin.Protecteur: Was he just pulling my leg that you people can ...get things?
[03.10.2022 17:05:30] AWES-Aspiration: I wish I could help you but I'm not privy to those comms
[03.10.2022 17:05:41] AWES-Aspiration: I'm sure the execs are looking into it and forming a response
[03.10.2022 17:05:45] [FLG]Baffin.Protecteur: Putain de Merde, well next time you see him and your bosses
[03.10.2022 17:05:54] AWES-Aspiration: they would be sure to put alot of thought into it likely
[03.10.2022 17:06:11] [FLG]Baffin.Protecteur: Make sure you remind them Oui?
[03.10.2022 17:06:14] AWES-Aspiration: You guys are like Gallic freedom fighters, right?
[03.10.2022 17:06:15] [FLG]Baffin.Protecteur: Merci pal
[03.10.2022 17:06:27] [FLG]Baffin.Protecteur: Oui that we are - xenophobic union is what we fight against
[03.10.2022 17:06:39] [FLG]Baffin.Protecteur: We want Gallia open to Sirius, Oui
[03.10.2022 17:06:55] [FLG]Baffin.Protecteur: Be seeing you, Sirian!
[03.10.2022 17:07:04] [FLG]Baffin.Protecteur: You better tell them *laughs*

Good day Executive Offices,

Shikoku supply runs to All Worlds Enterprises from Deshima, Renzu and Ames Research Station all completed as scheduled.

Upon our final delivery, we did run into a Freelancer going by the name of Marc from Johnny's Office. He indicted familiarity with our organization and spoke of a contract regarding the Tau-53 lane problem. It sounds like Executive Offices will be getting a further reply from this individual's team in short order, once their investigations are completed.

He provided an escort to Gallia so another load of Renzu components could be delivered to Versailles Station, IDF. He seemed pleasant enough.

An Escort by Johnnys Office to Gallia - Oct 2

[02.10.2022 23:32:30] AWES-Densha: Good day Warhawk-1!
[02.10.2022 23:32:35] Warhawk-1: ?: Hello there, AWES vessel.
[02.10.2022 23:33:06] AWES-Densha: how are the lanes treating you today?
[02.10.2022 23:33:07] Warhawk-1: ?: Mind if I join your ship for your travels a bit? Don't worry, it'll be for free.
[02.10.2022 23:33:18] AWES-Densha: sure, I'll drop this cargo first.
[02.10.2022 23:33:23] Warhawk-1: ?: Oh, as usual. Pirates here and there.
[02.10.2022 23:33:29] Warhawk-1: ?: Sure thing!
[02.10.2022 23:33:42] 2022-10-02 23:33:42 SMT Traffic control alert: AWES-Densha has requested to dock
[02.10.2022 23:35:11] AWES-Densha: you're ready for a longer route? I was planning some engines from Renzu to Gallia
[02.10.2022 23:35:12] Warhawk-1: ?: I forgot to introduce myself, I'm Marc, working for Johnny's Office. We've been contracted by AWES.
[02.10.2022 23:35:20] AWES-Densha: Nice to meet you.
[02.10.2022 23:35:25] Warhawk-1: Marc: Wouldn't hurt to see my House back, sure!
[02.10.2022 23:35:38] AWES-Densha: One moment while I secure my cargo.
[02.10.2022 23:35:51] Warhawk-1: M: Go ahead.
[02.10.2022 23:36:06] 2022-10-02 23:36:06 SMT Traffic control alert: AWES-Densha has requested to dock
[02.10.2022 23:37:52] Warhawk-1: M: How's AWES doing? I see you have a station, quite large. I smell that the economy's doing good... Hehe
[02.10.2022 23:38:16] AWES-Densha: We can't complain. We get enough contract work to keep us in the black.
[02.10.2022 23:38:29] AWES-Densha: Course set. Heading to New Toyko.
[02.10.2022 23:38:42] Warhawk-1: M: Got it. In formation and ready to move.
[02.10.2022 23:39:54] AWES-Densha: I must say its good to see some ships offering escort service. AWES has been trying to promote that more on the lanes for
[02.10.2022 23:39:58] AWES-Densha: a long while
[02.10.2022 23:40:08] Warhawk-1: *Marc smiles*
[02.10.2022 23:40:24] AWES-Densha: So what other work does your group do?
[02.10.2022 23:40:24] Warhawk-1: M: We don't normally offer escort services. We're a private intelligence agency.
[02.10.2022 23:40:33] AWES-Densha: I see. Interesting
[02.10.2022 23:41:19] Warhawk-1: M: We've been contracted by AWES to investigate on Tau-53, for example.
[02.10.2022 23:41:58] AWES-Densha: I've heard very little about Tau-53 outside of the locked gates.
[02.10.2022 23:42:19] Warhawk-1: M: The contacts we have found that have information we need on Tau-53, that we have. We also have information, but
[02.10.2022 23:42:33] Warhawk-1: M: We have yet to process them, and it's not complete yet. It'll come soon enough.
[02.10.2022 23:42:51] Warhawk-1: M: Indeed - soon, you'll know everything on Tau-53. *chuckles*
[02.10.2022 23:43:19] Warhawk-1: M: That's what we do in short - investigate when nobody can, put people into contact with ours, and we can profit off of it.
[02.10.2022 23:43:25] AWES-Densha: I'm sure the higher-ups will be pleased. It's been a hassle dealing with the alternate routes at times
[02.10.2022 23:43:54] Warhawk-1: M: It sure is not as stable and profitable as trading, but it's a need that hasn't been fulfilled, so here we are.
[02.10.2022 23:44:15] Warhawk-1: M: I hope! I'm in charge of that, I really hope this will please your company. Also, if you could relay them -
[02.10.2022 23:44:21] AWES-Densha: It definitely sounds like promising work.
[02.10.2022 23:44:32] Warhawk-1: - that we are indeed still investigating and are waiting the return of our contacts, it would be great.
[02.10.2022 23:44:51] AWES-Densha: I can indeed pass the message onward and upward. *smile*
[02.10.2022 23:44:53] Warhawk-1: M: Indeed. At one point, we had way too much work. It was hell.
[02.10.2022 23:45:22] Warhawk-1: M: Thanks!
[02.10.2022 23:45:54] AWES-Densha: So is any of your other projects things you can discuss? or very hush hush?
[02.10.2022 23:46:58] Warhawk-1: M: It sure is troublesome sometimes. At the beginning we had, quite literally, nothing, except our mobile "HQ", a poorly-fitted
[02.10.2022 23:47:01] Warhawk-1: frigate.
[02.10.2022 23:47:31] Warhawk-1: M: Now we have ships adequately adapted to the situations we can encounter.
[02.10.2022 23:48:06] AWES-Densha: Good business yields good rewards. Glad to hear its working out
[02.10.2022 23:48:31] Warhawk-1: M: Mhm. I can say the same for AWES! Hope it'll keep going for both!
[02.10.2022 23:49:33] AWES-Densha: I think it helps to have positive leadership at the top. Our corporate structure is very supportive.
[02.10.2022 23:49:44] AWES-Densha: Did you know we get dental?
[02.10.2022 23:49:51] Warhawk-1: M: That's good to hear- oh wow, really?
[02.10.2022 23:50:25] Warhawk-1: M: Now that's a great company to work for. Usually, in my past employment, I would just-
[02.10.2022 23:50:25] AWES-Densha: Something about making sure every staff member presents a winning smile. *shines a smile*
[02.10.2022 23:50:40] Warhawk-1: get screamed at by my boss and even my subordinates. Glad I'm out.
[02.10.2022 23:50:51] AWES-Densha: I've had bosses like that as well
[02.10.2022 23:50:54] Warhawk-1: M: Hehehe. That's for sure.
[02.10.2022 23:51:08] AWES-Densha: We all had freelancer days with the odd bad contract too
[02.10.2022 23:51:17] AWES-Densha: Everyone has to start somewhere!
[02.10.2022 23:51:30] Warhawk-1: M: Heh. Of course, of course.
[02.10.2022 23:52:57] Warhawk-1: M: What's the destination, already?
[02.10.2022 23:53:08] Warhawk-1: M: Precisely, I mean. *chuckles*
[02.10.2022 23:53:18] AWES-Densha: Heading to Planet New Paris
[02.10.2022 23:53:24] AWES-Densha: Well, the orbit of
[02.10.2022 23:53:44] Warhawk-1: M: Ah, New Paris.
[02.10.2022 23:53:50] Warhawk-1: M: Great planet.
[02.10.2022 23:54:13] AWES-Densha: You see how the Tau-53 issue has us re-routed? ZigZag all over in the lanes to get there now
[02.10.2022 23:54:19] Warhawk-1: M: I only visited it a handful of times, I'm not from New Paris, I'm from Marne.
[02.10.2022 23:54:24] Warhawk-1: M: Affirmative.
[02.10.2022 23:54:32] AWES-Densha: Really? Nice.
[02.10.2022 23:54:33] Warhawk-1: M: Hopefully it won't be long!
[02.10.2022 23:54:57] AWES-Densha: Who know with politics being the way they are these days.
[02.10.2022 23:55:40] Warhawk-1: M: The Languedoc Jump Hole should be the fastest way, if I recall correctly.
[02.10.2022 23:56:08] Warhawk-1: M: Heh, remember when they warned against using jump holes because of their nature?
[02.10.2022 23:56:13] AWES-Densha: Actually the gate in the area is now repaired here! We can directly access the lanes again
[02.10.2022 23:56:36] Warhawk-1: M: Oh, great, didn't know that. Weird that it's been repaired while it still has the marks of conflict.
[02.10.2022 23:56:49] AWES-Densha: I do, it doesn't seem like that warning stuck around much longer after initially issued *laughs*
[02.10.2022 23:56:58] Death: bofan was put out of action by a hostile vessel.
[02.10.2022 23:57:22] Warhawk-1: M: Now it's just, normal. Heh. Either we became better at going through them, or all became insane.
[02.10.2022 23:58:00] Warhawk-1: M: I can let you know that going to Tau-53 will require going through jump holes, of course.
[02.10.2022 23:58:32] AWES-Densha: I have no problems using them, just seems like knowledge of most are limited. People treat you like outlaws if you know
[02.10.2022 23:58:39] AWES-Densha: their locations
[02.10.2022 23:58:48] Warhawk-1: M: But the system is small, and the jump holes, not so far from the main point of interest of the system.
[02.10.2022 23:58:52] Death: syerone was put out of action by a hostile vessel.
[02.10.2022 23:58:52] Warhawk-1: M: Hehe, indeed.
[02.10.2022 23:59:01] Warhawk-1: M: That's why we're here, I suppose.
[02.10.2022 23:59:54] AWES-Densha: So what's Marne like? Can't say I've been.
[03.10.2022 00:00:13] Warhawk-1: M: Hell, quite literally. Food shortages, hotspot for terrorism.
[03.10.2022 00:00:13] AWES-Densha: Too stuck in the lanes to see the sights.
[03.10.2022 00:00:21] Warhawk-1: M: Haha, I can understand that.
[03.10.2022 00:00:25] AWES-Densha: Sorry to hear that.
[03.10.2022 00:00:41] Warhawk-1: M: Oh, we left the planet early, thank God. Don't worry about that.
[03.10.2022 00:00:57] Warhawk-1: M: But thanks.
[03.10.2022 00:01:20] Warhawk-1: M: As you can see, even though the wine and the food tastes great, there's still some stuff that isn't right in Gallia.
[03.10.2022 00:01:41] Warhawk-1: M: That's why I'm in charge of investigating the Taus and my home House, Gallia.
[03.10.2022 00:02:03] Warhawk-1: M: See that station? The debris? Remnants of yet another war.
[03.10.2022 00:02:25] AWES-Densha: Yes, much to collect and settle from conflicts.
[03.10.2022 00:02:36] Warhawk-1: M: I see you haven't lost sight! Haha. Indeed.
[03.10.2022 00:03:26] Warhawk-1: M: I'll leave you alone after we land on New Paris, alright?
[03.10.2022 00:03:47] AWES-Densha: that's fine. The escort this far was much appreciated!
[03.10.2022 00:03:48] Warhawk-1: M: I'll stop by and check on some acquaintances on the planet while I'm here.
[03.10.2022 00:04:01] Warhawk-1: M: No problem. Hopefully you felt safer with me!
[03.10.2022 00:04:34] AWES-Densha: Very much so. Always good to have someone on the trigger nearby in case of problems.
[03.10.2022 00:04:53] Warhawk-1: M: Indeed. Always ready to protect.
[03.10.2022 00:05:07] Warhawk-1: M: Ah, an old habit of mine, to say that.
[03.10.2022 00:05:54] AWES-Densha: Those old familiar ways usually stick with you the longest. *smile*
[03.10.2022 00:06:05] Warhawk-1: *chuckles* Indeed.
[03.10.2022 00:06:16] Warhawk-1: M: Dates from my old employement as police officer.
[03.10.2022 00:06:36] Warhawk-1: M: Woops have I said too much? Alright I'll let you dock, and, see you next time?
[03.10.2022 00:06:37] AWES-Densha: here we are. Thanks again for the escort!
[03.10.2022 00:06:53] AWES-Densha: Safe skies
[03.10.2022 00:06:56] Warhawk-1: M: No problem, of course. I really want to make sure AWES can count on Johnny's Office.
[03.10.2022 00:07:03] Warhawk-1: M: You too!
[03.10.2022 00:07:13] AWES-Densha: Understood, I'll relay your message to Executive as well.
[03.10.2022 00:07:18] Warhawk-1: You got it!
[03.10.2022 00:07:20] 2022-10-03 00:07:20 SMT Traffic control alert: AWES-Densha has requested to dock

Good day Executive Offices,

We completed the initial run of the Niobium Ore / Superconductors route. BiaCris in Tau-23 (C3) seems to have a decent supply of the Ore for delivery to Pueblo in Colorado. Ageira was more than happy to hear we'd be back several more times to fulfill our quotas for the Executive order - the more Superconductors they sell to us the more profits they can use to develop their trade lane technology further, I suppose.

In the end, 5000 units are now sitting on Convergence Trade Centre, as ordered. My crew and I are going to get some R&R before tending to the further 70,000 units as per the internal memorandum.

None

Good day Executive Offices,

Our convoy that included the ship AWES-The.Gypsy and my own ship AWES-Resolution happened across a ship from the Redline Inc. group. They offered to provided an escort given our nicely aligned similar direction of travel and kept us clear of any troubles. He mentioned their own ships had recent troubles in the Omegas.

We were sure to compensate him for the effort and thanked him profusely.

An escort from RedlineInc - Oct 6

[06.10.2022 22:48:51] AWES-Resolution: Good day Redline.Inc-SF!
[06.10.2022 22:49:06] AWES-Resolution: how is Redline faring these days?
[06.10.2022 22:49:07] Redline.Inc-SF: g'day Lads.
//ship moved out of com range
[06.10.2022 22:50:14] Redline.Inc-SF: since I was headed that way.
[06.10.2022 22:50:59] AWES-Resolution: I think we missed a line in last com
[06.10.2022 22:51:35] Redline.Inc-SF: one of our ship was attacked by a rogue nomad in this area earlier today.
[06.10.2022 22:51:49] AWES-Resolution: oh really? did they make it out ok?
[06.10.2022 22:52:06] Redline.Inc-SF: he did not.

Good day Executive Offices,

My crew and I are proud to report another delivery of Superconductors from Pueblo has made its way from Colorado to Convergence Trade Centre in Tau-31.

After delivery, we picked up some Quantum Arrays in Leeds for resupply at Ulster Station in Dublin.

Our presence in Dublin coincided with the AWES-The.Gypsy, as well as a local BMM surveyor who was more than happy to provide Gold to our formed convoy in accordance with our close arrangement with BMF / BMM. This gold was run directly to Planet Honshu in the Honshu system without incident at all.

Remembering some objectives in memos from new base management, our convoy of 2 decided to pick up needed Industrial Hardware from Planet Honshu for delivery to All Worlds Enterprises HQ in Shikoku. These two loads should be sufficient for the Docking Factory construction currently underway. There were a lot of personnel involved in the project and we left immediately to clear out of their way.

Lastly on the agenda was some collection of Platinum-198 Ore from the local comet for delivery to the Observatory in Zurich. Samura met us at the site and we were provided with the product for delivery. I managed to catch some footage during the operation of the comet itself I've provided here - it's quite a spectacular sight up close - almost mesmerizing to watch its spin.


Sincerely,

Murray Rushton

Good day Executive Offices,

Another busy series of routes in our convoy with AWES-The.Gypsy.

Starting with Aluminum Ore from Frankfurt for delivery to New London, then Gold Ore to Planet Honshu to meet that demand.

Our base All Worlds Enterprises in Shikoku was delivered 10,000 units of Robotic Hardware from nearby Shinagawa Station, New Tokyo, in support of building projects currently underway.

Samura was able to help with mining some Platinum-198 Ore for delivery to Zurich again, and our final deliveries ended us in Rheinland at Planet New Berlin. AWES-The.Gypsy took some shore leave on planet at this time.

After landing and distributing cargo, we exited our near orbit of the planet only to encounter an Auxo ship near our Interspace Commerce installation of Bonn Station. As curious as I am about other groups we encounter on the routes, I proceeded to engage in discussion with this vessel to learn more about them. It turned out to be quite an informative conversation - hearing news about our home Liberty space from another perspective many of us don't encounter. During this conversation, trade ships from Kruger, BMF, and Daumann approaches during their routes and further opinions on different issues and views were added. I've attached the records for your review.

Interesting meeting of multiple groups near Planet New Berlin

[17.10.2022 17:24:47] AWES-Persistence: Good day, A/)-Revenant
[17.10.2022 17:24:52] A/)-Revenant: Salut.
[17.10.2022 17:26:29] AWES-Persistence: Can't say I've come across your group in these parts often.. what brings you to Rheinland space?
[17.10.2022 17:26:44] AWES-Persistence: If I'm not being too forward to ask
[17.10.2022 17:26:59] A/)-Revenant: I would usually refer the same to Interspace partaking in casual trade, but, we've been here for a while.
[17.10.2022 17:27:19] A/)-Revenant: Business flows, and I ensure it stays as such.
[17.10.2022 17:27:48] AWES-Persistence: Indeed, we all take on the different roles where we must I suppose
[17.10.2022 17:28:04] A/)-Revenant: Curious how you managed to summon the strength to inquire.
[17.10.2022 17:28:15] A/)-Revenant: Most traders seem to run away at me without a word. Very humorous, I admit.
[17.10.2022 17:28:16] AWES-Persistence: When insurance slows credits must be earned elsewhere
[17.10.2022 17:28:53] AWES-Persistence: Well often schedules don't permit such lengthy interactions, but I'm off duty awhile... and curious
[17.10.2022 17:29:20] A/)-Revenant: And unafflicted by the burdens of fear of the unknown, how unentertaining.
[17.10.2022 17:29:32] A/)-Revenant: I jest, of course, I do not truly care if you are frightened or not.
[17.10.2022 17:30:22] AWES-Persistence: Have we reason to fear your group? I cannot think of any time in the past we've had negative relations... mind you we rarely go
[17.10.2022 17:30:27] AWES-Persistence: off tradelanes
[17.10.2022 17:30:36] A/)-Revenant: Most are compelled to adhere to fairy tales and hearsay.
[17.10.2022 17:31:02] A/)-Revenant: It is not unusual that the average pilot is uncomfortable with the unknown.
[17.10.2022 17:31:36] A/)-Revenant: As far as I know, there has not been much interaction with the Interspace corporates and shareholders.
[17.10.2022 17:31:43] A/)-Revenant: Aside from the obvious APM investment.
[17.10.2022 17:31:56] A/)-Revenant: I wonder how badly those shareholders are tanking in the Core these days.
[17.10.2022 17:32:37] AWES-Persistence: Those are worries for the executives, so long as my benefits aren't affected
[17.10.2022 17:32:50] A/)-Revenant: Oh, it was nothing more than mere nostalgic rambling for me.
[17.10.2022 17:33:11] A/)-Revenant: Very entertaining to see those new blood destroy what foundations I help create.
[17.10.2022 17:33:12] AWES-Persistence: The corporation does deal with alot of different groups, Core among them
[17.10.2022 17:33:33] A/)-Revenant: Not unsurprising.
[17.10.2022 17:33:42] AWES-Persistence: hmmm... new management causing issues?
[17.10.2022 17:34:01] A/)-Revenant: Before I had left my Guildmaster position, we had solidified good trade relations with Rheinland and Liberty.
[17.10.2022 17:34:13] A/)-Revenant: The newer 'replacements' seem to have done a fantastic job of creating diplomatic rifts.
[17.10.2022 17:34:48] A/)-Revenant: Oh, I do not miss those executive meetings. How painfully drab.
[17.10.2022 17:35:45] AWES-Persistence: Interesting. How policies quickly change but each new set of managers probably has ideas on how to manage relations I suppose
[17.10.2022 17:38:46] AWES-Persistence: That's too bad things went south - it's a shame when politics gets in the way of trade profits and cultural exchanges
[17.10.2022 17:39:23] A/)-Revenant: It is inevitable.
[17.10.2022 17:39:27] A/)-Revenant: Conflict is a part of Human nature.
[17.10.2022 17:39:34] A/)-Revenant: And... war, is always profitable.
[17.10.2022 17:39:54] A/)-Revenant: The profits will not last an eternity however, the Core will soon learn that.
[17.10.2022 17:40:05] AWES-Persistence: I guess the process and rebuilding does create its own projects
[17.10.2022 17:40:41] A/)-Revenant: Oh, weapons development, resource desires, manpower desire...
[17.10.2022 17:40:49] A/)-Revenant: The usual.
[17.10.2022 17:41:27] AWES-Persistence: Well, I'm glad I'm on the trade side of things on not subject to getting jambed into conflicts for others power grabs
[17.10.2022 17:41:39] AWES-Persistence: Just leave me to Logistics
[17.10.2022 17:41:55] A/)-Revenant: Hm...
[17.10.2022 17:42:02] A/)-Revenant: How do you feel about the Liberty conflict?
[17.10.2022 17:42:15] A/)-Revenant: I imagine you are from there, yes?
[17.10.2022 17:42:29] AWES-Persistence: Correct
[17.10.2022 17:42:39] AWES-Persistence: To which conflict are you referring?
[17.10.2022 17:42:52] A/)-Revenant: The latest conflict from the Liberty Insurgency and the Xeno movement.
[17.10.2022 17:43:00] AWES-Persistence: Ah
[17.10.2022 17:43:04] A/)-Revenant: They are... somewhat... intertwined, if not visible upon the surface.
[17.10.2022 17:43:55] AWES-Persistence: I often just see the hatred displayed for our ships when we are just doing our jobs. They should probably communicate their
[17.10.2022 17:44:09] AWES-Persistence: cause more to the common traders to ensure message received.
[17.10.2022 17:44:16] A/)-Revenant: You have no concerns of more civilians revolting against Liberty?
[17.10.2022 17:44:26] AWES-Persistence: I doubt Liberty news in unbiased in telling their activities.
[17.10.2022 17:45:14] AWES-Persistence: Again, we travel everywhere. In every major house, there is some group in open revolt, is there not?
[17.10.2022 17:45:48] A/)-Revenant: Open... Hm.
[17.10.2022 17:46:11] A/)-Revenant: Rheinland was the House closest to open dissidence across all the colonies.
[17.10.2022 17:46:23] A/)-Revenant: Obviously, the government did split, the civil war.
[17.10.2022 17:46:44] A/)-Revenant: Liberty has yet to see that level of fracture.
[17.10.2022 17:47:19] AWES-Persistence: If open isn't the correct word when we constantly have trade lane disruptions and unlawful interceptions in house space,
[17.10.2022 17:47:27] AWES-Persistence: not sure what else I could call it.
[17.10.2022 17:47:34] A/)-Revenant: Constant, has it been?
[17.10.2022 17:47:50] A/)-Revenant: I have ran my fair share of the lanes without being caught from neither law nor bandit.
[17.10.2022 17:47:51] AWES-Persistence: More or less in many areas
[17.10.2022 17:48:21] AWES-Persistence: Maybe its a matter of perspective I suppose. And timing
[17.10.2022 17:48:44] A/)-Revenant: Both the Rogues and Xenos are building up to something.
[17.10.2022 17:48:53] A/)-Revenant: It is not quite as to what yet, but they are still looming.
[17.10.2022 17:50:00] AWES-Persistence: Is this just a matter of your own observations of their activities? Or does your group coexist with these factions?
[17.10.2022 17:50:13] A/)-Revenant: Observation.
[17.10.2022 17:50:20] AWES-Persistence: I see.
[17.10.2022 17:50:28] A/)-Revenant: The Xenos are highly influenced by another external faction that we are at conflict with.
[17.10.2022 17:52:43] AWES-Persistence: Well when something does happen I'm sure crews like us will get either the watered down version or a biased media report
[17.10.2022 17:52:52] A/)-Revenant: If at all.
[17.10.2022 17:52:58] A/)-Revenant: A lot happens that goes unspoken.
[17.10.2022 17:53:16] A/)-Revenant: Tell me, have you heard anything within the Independent Worlds neighbouring Liberty?
[17.10.2022 17:53:23] A/)-Revenant: Or just the Insurgent conflict?
[17.10.2022 17:53:34] AWES-Persistence: I would not at all be surprised if nothing was said... very true.
[17.10.2022 17:54:13] AWES-Persistence: Our crew doesn't honestly head through those systems as often as others.
[17.10.2022 17:54:31] A/)-Revenant: Not even a warning?
[17.10.2022 17:54:36] A/)-Revenant: Very curious.
[17.10.2022 17:54:37] AWES-Persistence: We've only just setup shop in Crayter space, so we'll probably hear more as more routes open up
[17.10.2022 17:54:47] A/)-Revenant: [a soft chuckle emerged from under the mask]
[17.10.2022 17:54:49] AWES-Persistence: Good day, Kruger|KTS-Heinrich
[17.10.2022 17:54:57] A/)-Revenant: I suppose one day something will be said.
[17.10.2022 17:55:00] Kruger|KTS-Heinrich: Guten Tag!
[17.10.2022 17:55:02] A/)-Revenant: Or perhaps by then, it may be too late.
[17.10.2022 17:55:10] Kruger|KTS-Heinrich: What's all this fuzz about?
[17.10.2022 17:55:32] AWES-Persistence: Just casual conversation about the state of Sirius.
[17.10.2022 17:55:32] A/)-Revenant: Casual conversation.
[17.10.2022 17:56:03] Kruger|KTS-Heinrich: Ok, just interested
[17.10.2022 17:56:11] A/)-Revenant: Mm.
[17.10.2022 17:56:14] AWES-Persistence: Good day, BMF|Black.Cover
[17.10.2022 17:56:31] AWES-Persistence: This is a busy place
[17.10.2022 17:56:34] A/)-Revenant: You've set up shop in Crayter space, you say?
[17.10.2022 17:56:53] A/)-Revenant: Am I correct in assuming it is by the IMG facility?
[17.10.2022 17:56:57] A/)-Revenant: In Tau-31?
[17.10.2022 17:57:03] AWES-Persistence: A trade location on our busier routes. Yes it seems you know it
[17.10.2022 17:57:17] A/)-Revenant: I had wondered about it. My autopilot almost flew into it once.
[17.10.2022 17:57:44] Kruger|KTS-Heinrich: I noticed you AWES folks are building a whole trade network
[17.10.2022 17:57:52] AWES-Persistence: It was supposed to be off-routes, but our construction crews neglected a patrol path I think
[17.10.2022 17:58:38] BMF|Black.Cover: Greetings
[17.10.2022 17:58:41] AWES-Persistence: We've got a few all over, very true. A bit more spread out now than just the homeworlds.
[17.10.2022 17:59:17] AWES-Persistence: I'm not sure the corporate strategy, but it sure keeps us busy these days.
[17.10.2022 17:59:27] Kruger|KTS-Heinrich: Our miners sure make a lot of profits on those bases
[17.10.2022 17:59:33] BMF|Black.Cover: Greetings to all Pilots, Kuger, Auxo and AWES
[17.10.2022 17:59:39] AWES-Persistence: Greetings!
[17.10.2022 17:59:44] Kruger|KTS-Heinrich: Guten Tag!
[17.10.2022 18:00:13] AWES-Persistence: We've got some representation here from many parts today
[17.10.2022 18:00:30] A/)-Revenant: There was a Bowex vessel back in Frankfurt that I intimidated with my mere presence.
[17.10.2022 18:00:36] A/)-Revenant: It was going to head this way until it saw me.
[17.10.2022 18:01:10] AWES-Persistence: Does Bowex consider your group a threat to Bretonia?
[17.10.2022 18:01:28] A/)-Revenant: The "Crown" does - however - are Bowex not Independent of the Crown?
[17.10.2022 18:01:36] A/)-Revenant: No - that was Gateway.
[17.10.2022 18:01:37] A/)-Revenant: My mistake.
[17.10.2022 18:02:21] AWES-Persistence: Well, as a trader, and from your own experience it seems, we are a jumpy bunch on the lanes. Except Kruger...
[17.10.2022 18:02:26] AWES-Persistence: Kruger is tough as nails.
[17.10.2022 18:02:30] Kruger|KTS-Heinrich: I'm not even sure what kruger or rheinland rep is with A/
[17.10.2022 18:02:41] A/)-Revenant: Neutrality.
[17.10.2022 18:02:56] A/)-Revenant: We were closer with the previous Government before the Civil war broke the House apart.
[17.10.2022 18:03:05] Kruger|KTS-Heinrich: Ah well, we're sturdy but bulky haha
[17.10.2022 18:03:10] AWES-Persistence: Actually I've seen BMF security push back too
[17.10.2022 18:05:15] Kruger|KTS-Heinrich: To talk about piracy...
[17.10.2022 18:05:24] BMF|Black.Cover: Althougth crow, we have no problems wiyh Auxo
[17.10.2022 18:05:33] A/)-Revenant: That is very peculiar.
[17.10.2022 18:05:34] Kruger|KTS-Heinrich: We just refrain from ever dealing with pirates, even at the cost of our ship
[17.10.2022 18:05:54] A/)-Revenant: I recall a certain BMF executive "declaring war" against us after we arrested some of them for trespassing on our area.
[17.10.2022 18:06:31] AWES-Persistence: That's a pretty extreme policy in my books, Kruger, but if it works
[17.10.2022 18:06:47] A/)-Revenant: Surely not a cost efficient policy either.
[17.10.2022 18:06:57] Kruger|KTS-Heinrich: In the long run it does
[17.10.2022 18:06:59] A/)-Revenant: ...or good for morale.
[17.10.2022 18:07:14] AWES-Persistence: Daumann must love you guys for the ship purchases
[17.10.2022 18:07:16] A/)-Revenant: Wonder how many Kruger escape pods were taken by undesirables from such policies.
[17.10.2022 18:07:16] Kruger|KTS-Heinrich: The pirates that know us don't even bother at this point
[17.10.2022 18:07:28] Kruger|KTS-Heinrich: Because we destroy our cargo before they even arrive to us
[17.10.2022 18:07:48] A/)-Revenant: You... lose profit by doing such...
[17.10.2022 18:07:53] Kruger|KTS-Heinrich: It hurts from time to time sure... but it's nothing compared to what we get in the long run
[17.10.2022 18:08:07] A/)-Revenant: You'd get more in the long run too.
[17.10.2022 18:08:19] Kruger|KTS-Heinrich: The other day, a Corsair could have easily shot me down
[17.10.2022 18:08:36] AWES-Persistence: Interesting. IC just adds piracy as an accounting line under losses I'm sure
[17.10.2022 18:08:39] Kruger|KTS-Heinrich: But he deccided to ignore me
[17.10.2022 18:09:15] A/)-Revenant: Likely after someone or something in particular.
[17.10.2022 18:09:25] Kruger|KTS-Heinrich: Perhaps
[17.10.2022 18:10:27] Kruger|KTS-Heinrich: Hows interspace doing these days?
[17.10.2022 18:11:06] BMF|Black.Cover: One day, if we understand what happened to Auxo in Bretonia, maybe we can help
[17.10.2022 18:11:16] AWES-Persistence: Pretty well from any internal reports I'm privy to. Lots of work and expansion. Always new projects.
[17.10.2022 18:11:35] A/)-Revenant: We were betrayed, and Bretonia wanted to invade our homeland. Pure greed. How easily they forgot that we helped them
[17.10.2022 18:11:39] A/)-Revenant: in the Gallic war, even against Corsairs.
[17.10.2022 18:12:13] Kruger|KTS-Heinrich: If i may ask, does the technocracy have a homesystem?
[17.10.2022 18:12:19] A/)-Revenant: Inverness.
[17.10.2022 18:12:29] BMF|Black.Cover: BMF is Manufacturer, not miitary
[17.10.2022 18:12:32] A/)-Revenant: A very cosy spot for cryo-research.
[17.10.2022 18:12:43] A/)-Revenant: I referred to the Crown, Black Cover.
[17.10.2022 18:13:07] A/)-Revenant: And BMF is a servant of the Crown, in the end. BMM subsidaries, what not.
[17.10.2022 18:14:26] Kruger|KTS-Heinrich: All i can say is we get loads of gold from them. Since Liberty blocks most trade with them now
[17.10.2022 18:14:40] Kruger|KTS-Heinrich: And it's certainly welcome hehe
[17.10.2022 18:14:43] A/)-Revenant: Regardless, your CEO did 'declare war' on us previously. Whether they still believe that or not is another question.
[17.10.2022 18:15:20] A/)-Revenant: The Bretonian genocide of Canaria wasn't particularly forgotten about either, nor against the Miners Guild.
[17.10.2022 18:15:21] AWES-Persistence: We'd probably try to setup more trade in Inverness if security in the area wasn't the concern. IC tends to stay on-lane most
[17.10.2022 18:15:22] AWES-Persistence: often
[17.10.2022 18:15:32] BMF|Black.Cover: Inverness is shared with Junkers and Nomads yet?
[17.10.2022 18:15:46] A/)-Revenant: The Junkers are a rarity, and the Nomads are virtually non-present.
[17.10.2022 18:16:01] A/)-Revenant: There are no major security breaches in the area, an NFZ acros the system is upheld for neutral trade.
[17.10.2022 18:16:05] A/)-Revenant: across, even.
[17.10.2022 18:16:18] A/)-Revenant: You will see smugglers, but they are not our concern, unless it is a certain amount of Cardamine.
[17.10.2022 18:16:56] AWES-Persistence: You say that, but I've seen NFZ breached all the time, even on lane. However, I've never been there, so no experience
[17.10.2022 18:17:07] AWES-Persistence: in your system.
[17.10.2022 18:22:54] A/)-Revenant: Unfortunate ionstorm timing.
[17.10.2022 18:22:59] AWES-Persistence: damn comms blacked out for a sec there
[17.10.2022 18:23:02] BMF|Black.Cover: yeah
[17.10.2022 18:23:05] A/)-Revenant: I was going to comment that NFZ's are effective if there are upholders.
[17.10.2022 18:23:13] A/)-Revenant: Zoners sometimes lack this conviction to uphold security.
[17.10.2022 18:23:22] AWES-Persistence: makes sense
[17.10.2022 18:23:25] A/)-Revenant: ...and most them are pretty terrible at fighting.
[17.10.2022 18:23:57] AWES-Persistence: well I doubt they get into many tangles with their neutrality
[17.10.2022 18:24:10] A/)-Revenant: Oh. They do. They've always been tested.
[17.10.2022 18:24:14] Death: Michael.Brent was put out of action by a hostile vessel.
[17.10.2022 18:24:23] A/)-Revenant: And most of the time, their neutrality is an illusion, there's usually a group that 'gives them a push'
[17.10.2022 18:25:02] AWES-Persistence: I guess no one truly takes no sides
[17.10.2022 18:25:27] A/)-Revenant: To some essence. True neutrality is sometimes perceived as evil.
[17.10.2022 18:26:01] AWES-Persistence: The lack of action is often supportive of the action some would counter.
[17.10.2022 18:26:32] AWES-Persistence: And that's just coming from a trader...
[17.10.2022 18:26:49] A/)-Revenant: Perhaps.
[17.10.2022 18:30:14] AWES-Persistence: Good day, {DHC}Innsbruck
[17.10.2022 18:30:38] AWES-Persistence: how Daumann trading today?
[17.10.2022 18:33:13] AWES-Persistence: Hopefully profitable
[17.10.2022 18:33:33] A/)-Revenant: They still seem to be slowly moving. Are their crew even conscious?
[17.10.2022 18:34:14] AWES-Persistence: hmm they must be having onboard system issues
[17.10.2022 18:34:38] AWES-Persistence: at least they aren't aimed at a solar
[17.10.2022 18:35:27] {DHC}Innsbruck: Guten tag
[17.10.2022 18:35:33] A/)-Revenant: Oh, they woke up.
[17.10.2022 18:35:42] AWES-Persistence: Hello DHC vessel!
[17.10.2022 18:35:44] {DHC}Innsbruck: Ja, we had some issues in the galley, a small fire
[17.10.2022 18:35:53] {DHC}Innsbruck: unattentive crew
[17.10.2022 18:35:57] AWES-Persistence: We figured an emergency of some sort
[17.10.2022 18:36:06] {DHC}Innsbruck: Luckily it is all good now
[17.10.2022 18:36:07] AWES-Persistence: Good day, BMF|Black.Cover
[17.10.2022 18:36:15] AWES-Persistence: Glad to hear
[17.10.2022 18:36:36] BMF|Black.Cover: Good day to all your too, Pilots
[17.10.2022 18:37:03] AWES-Persistence: safe skies BMF!
[17.10.2022 18:37:10] {DHC}Innsbruck: Ja, time to depart
[17.10.2022 18:37:13] {DHC}Innsbruck: work is calling
[17.10.2022 18:37:17] BMF|Black.Cover: Thanks
[17.10.2022 18:37:31] AWES-Persistence: I should get back to the routes as well. Take care all, good talks
[17.10.2022 18:37:40] A/)-Revenant: Mhm. As you were.
[17.10.2022 18:37:58] AWES-Persistence: Indeed. Safe skies - may our paths cross again

Good day fellow executive committee members,

I have an urgent report filed by a member of my recon element on a routine patrol to Freeport 5 to access route safety in advance of trade delegations. They encountered an AI of previously unknown design and configuration that was willing to communicate, in its own terms, with the pilot. The pilot seems successful in advising our intent is non-hostile, and it's possible we may see more of this craft or potentially companions of similar type in the future.

I'm going to advise pilots in that area to proceed with caution but openly communicate with these vessels to ensure our intentions remain at neutrality or above. It is unknown what non-response action would have, but last attempt at simply answer queries and posing them kept this entity engaged and friendly. They may simply seek knowledge from alternative perspectives or of regions outside of their own.

They were given a frequency for communications by the pilot - due to the sensitive nature of this future correspondence I have asked our communications team to direct them to my office so we may review each message and answer concisely and consistently - maintaining these positive first steps and building upwards.

Good day Executive Offices,

During some supply runs of construction materials to Always Welcome Entertainment Services in Dublin we came across a few fellow fighters, Mollys, Pirates, and miners. There was some cost to dealing pleasantly with them, but I'll file an expense report on the items at a later date.

Adventures in Dublin - Nov 26

[26.11.2022 21:43:42] AWES-Resolution: Good day Golden_Calf!
[26.11.2022 21:43:47] Golden_Calf: contact'
[26.11.2022 21:44:02] Golden_Calf: dont move pls
[26.11.2022 21:44:06] AWES-Resolution: slow your roll friend... how are the Molly's in dublin today?
[26.11.2022 21:44:23] Golden_Calf: well well
[26.11.2022 21:44:50] AWES-Resolution: has bretonia been listening to the message lately or answering with violence?
[26.11.2022 21:44:54] Golden_Calf: agin "big fish"
[26.11.2022 21:45:26] Golden_Calf: you want goldore ?
[26.11.2022 21:45:58] AWES-Resolution: Not today. Interspace is working on the base with all the gun around us. Trying to improve it
[26.11.2022 21:46:18] AWES-Resolution: Note that they aren't firing. We are neutral here to your conflict
[26.11.2022 21:46:34] Golden_Calf: its good sound
[26.11.2022 21:46:59] AWES-Resolution: maybe some funds for your troubles today?
[26.11.2022 21:47:58] [2022-11-26] 21:47:58 You have sent 5.000.000 credits to Golden_Calf.
[26.11.2022 21:48:03] Golden_Calf: ?


[26.11.2022 22:29:40] Nenet.Mido: I'd guess neither of yoru are affiliated with the race track.
[26.11.2022 22:29:58] AWES-Resolution: Good day Nenet.Mido!
[26.11.2022 22:30:16] AWES-Resolution: Are you looking to race?
[26.11.2022 22:30:25] Nenet.Mido: Not really.
[26.11.2022 22:30:42] AWES-Resolution: Because there's no gold over in this field
[26.11.2022 22:30:55] Nenet.Mido: Do you happen to be the owner of the base inside of the field?
[26.11.2022 22:31:20] Nenet.Mido: All fields here have traces of it at least. But that's not nearly enough to be worth it.
[26.11.2022 22:31:21] AWES-Resolution: Yes, AWES is the owner of the base.
[26.11.2022 22:31:58] Nenet.Mido: A business venture out here in Dublin doesn't sound that profitable.
[26.11.2022 22:32:14] AWES-Resolution: Well, it's a vision!
[26.11.2022 22:32:18] Nenet.Mido: Bound to get raided by the residents a whole lot.
[26.11.2022 22:32:37] Nenet.Mido: Well, what exactly is this vision about?
[26.11.2022 22:32:44] AWES-Resolution: The infrastructure is already here, made sense to executives to at least try
[26.11.2022 22:33:38] AWES-Resolution: Imagine Dublin alight with activity not related to the problems associated with mining
[26.11.2022 22:34:11] Nenet.Mido: I'd reckon the Mollys would have a thing or two to say about that.
[26.11.2022 22:34:37] Nenet.Mido: I mean, just look around. Almost every field has a set of wrecks related to them one way or the other.
[26.11.2022 22:35:04] Nenet.Mido: Doesn't seem like a vision worth pursuing.
[26.11.2022 22:35:05] AWES-Resolution: Do you think they'd have issues with a neutral party that has no interest in the conflict or gold nearby? They have left..
[26.11.2022 22:35:11] AWES-Resolution: Ulster alone so far
[26.11.2022 22:35:37] Nenet.Mido: Well, they do want a free Dublin. I'm not sure how free we are talking.
[26.11.2022 22:35:48] AWES-Resolution: It's more BMM they are focused on from what we've seen. They are still reasonable.. with incentives
[26.11.2022 22:36:05] Nenet.Mido: Probably varies.
[26.11.2022 22:36:23] Nenet.Mido: Seen some who wouldn't mind a neutral party, while others would rid every outside influence.
[26.11.2022 22:36:30] AWES-Resolution: This is true, variations exist amongst and within all factions, agreed.
[26.11.2022 22:36:41] Nenet.Mido: Guess time will tell that one.
[26.11.2022 22:37:04] AWES-Resolution: surely they have a long term plan beyond just ejecting all from Dublin.
[26.11.2022 22:37:22] AWES-Resolution: Everyone needs friends or at least suppliers.
[26.11.2022 22:37:40] Nenet.Mido: Just don't mention anything like that with the Bretonians around.
[26.11.2022 22:37:57] Nenet.Mido: They might up your taxes.
[26.11.2022 22:38:51] AWES-Resolution: Well, we aren't starting a revolution, just a business. They get their dues as well for our activities.
[26.11.2022 22:39:24] Nenet.Mido: Well, I got my own financial incentives, not sure about the extent of it just yet.
[26.11.2022 22:39:28] AWES-Resolution: So now that I've given all this information, what's your story in this area?
[26.11.2022 22:39:57] Nenet.Mido: Oh, I'd rather be here than somewhere else.
[26.11.2022 22:40:02] Nenet.Mido: That's pretty much the story.
[26.11.2022 22:40:29] AWES-Resolution: I'm hoping that fares well for we traders!
[26.11.2022 22:41:04] Nenet.Mido: You don't seem too awful so far.
[26.11.2022 22:41:25] Nenet.Mido: I'd probably have to ask around to get a better picture.
[26.11.2022 22:42:01] AWES-Resolution: Appreciate that. This was a rather unexpected encounter that went not how I would have predicted.
[26.11.2022 22:42:46] Nenet.Mido: Not really my style to blow someone up in another party's backyard.
[26.11.2022 22:42:55] Nenet.Mido: Or blowing up anyone in general.
[26.11.2022 22:43:14] Nenet.Mido: Where are you two headed
[26.11.2022 22:43:19] Nenet.Mido: headed, even.
[26.11.2022 22:43:45] AWES-Resolution: We were off to supply Cambridge now that we've finished our long runs from Kusari. A trader's work...never done.
[26.11.2022 22:44:12] Nenet.Mido: Oh that's a rich neighborhood.
[26.11.2022 22:45:04] AWES-Resolution: They pay well. It attracts big traders like us.
[26.11.2022 22:45:20] Nenet.Mido: Here's a tip.
[26.11.2022 22:45:38] Nenet.Mido: You generally don't want to admit that near someone that might want to tax you for existing.
[26.11.2022 22:46:16] Nenet.Mido: I'm not really looking for the big bucks, so I don't care as much.
[26.11.2022 22:46:34] Nenet.Mido: But anyone else will likely ask for a hefty sum after a statement like that.
[26.11.2022 22:47:00] AWES-Resolution: Usually these kind of conversations with those looking to take don't last this long so the slip up doesn't have time to
[26.11.2022 22:47:03] AWES-Resolution: occur!
[26.11.2022 22:47:28] Nenet.Mido: All part of the plan I never quite devised.
[26.11.2022 22:48:09] Nenet.Mido: This is the part where I'm going to ask for willing donations.
[26.11.2022 22:48:16] Nenet.Mido: You know, just so we are on the same page.
[26.11.2022 22:48:31] AWES-Resolution: We all have to eat.
[26.11.2022 22:49:04] Nenet.Mido: I don't eat much.
[26.11.2022 22:49:16] Nenet.Mido: The reactor sort of does, but that depends on the mileage.
[26.11.2022 22:49:27] [2022-11-26] 22:49:27 You have sent 10.000.000 credits to Nenet.Mido.
[26.11.2022 22:49:39] AWES-Resolution: Does this satisfy the hunger?
[26.11.2022 22:49:57] Nenet.Mido: You probably added one more zero onto the end of that.
[26.11.2022 22:50:02] Nenet.Mido: Not that I'm complaining.
[26.11.2022 22:50:27] AWES-Resolution: Nor am I. We are happy we could come to an amicable agreement.
[26.11.2022 22:50:52] Nenet.Mido: Oh yeah. We skimmed through the guns blazing part quite easily.
[26.11.2022 22:51:37] AWES-Resolution: Threats are primitive. Your approach is definitely respectable.
[26.11.2022 22:51:43] Nenet.Mido: Not that I mind, I don't think either of us wanted to become the decoration of the racetrack.
[26.11.2022 22:52:07] Nenet.Mido: I wouldn't say they are primitive.
[26.11.2022 22:52:27] Nenet.Mido: Some people only listen to threats.
[26.11.2022 22:52:54] Nenet.Mido: Granted, I am yet to come up with a threat but hey.
[26.11.2022 22:53:13] AWES-Resolution: Well, those people are probably either stubborn or sitting in well armed combat vessels.
[26.11.2022 22:53:34] Nenet.Mido: Usually a ship is enough of a threat, but this one is waaay too polished to be that.
[26.11.2022 22:53:48] AWES-Resolution: Good day IMG|Tidore!
[26.11.2022 22:53:53] IMG|Tidore: Hello, visitors.
[26.11.2022 22:54:02] Nenet.Mido: Hey.
[26.11.2022 22:54:18] IMG|Tidore: Hope you're enjoying the Hood, go ahead and buy some drinks and fuel if you want to support us.
[26.11.2022 22:54:45] AWES-Resolution: The Hood has been great for our pressence here. It is appreciated all the support.
[26.11.2022 22:54:47] Nenet.Mido: Don't think I can do that in my current capacity, but the offer does sound nice.
[26.11.2022 22:55:05] AWES-Resolution: And those Hood crew know how to drink!
[26.11.2022 22:55:53] Nenet.Mido: Surprised the Bretonians didn't want to take it back just yet.
[26.11.2022 22:56:26] IMG|Tidore: Ah. Well, it was whole mess in the late war.
[26.11.2022 22:56:48] IMG|Tidore: But clearly there were higher priorities. Y'know, the siege of the capital and all that.
[26.11.2022 22:56:53] Nenet.Mido: The Aland crisis was probably the time to take it back.
[26.11.2022 22:57:08] Nenet.Mido: They didn't bother then, likely won't touch it now.
[26.11.2022 22:57:28] IMG|Tidore: It was probably the time to remove Bretonia from this system altogether.
[26.11.2022 22:57:35] IMG|Tidore: But for legal reasons, that's a joke.
[26.11.2022 22:58:16] NES|:Cmdr_Rico: that IMG tidore guy is looking for trouble
[26.11.2022 22:58:28] Nenet.Mido: For illegal reasons, it wasn't.
[26.11.2022 22:58:50] IMG|Tidore: Inquire within.
[26.11.2022 22:59:47] Nenet.Mido: Regardless. I think I had a good run here.
[26.11.2022 23:00:42] AWES-Resolution: Well it's definitely busier here than we are used to today!
[26.11.2022 23:00:51] Nenet.Mido: You two got a run ahead of you, I sort of do too.
[26.11.2022 23:00:53] IMG|Tidore: Running's what this area's all about!
[26.11.2022 23:01:14] Nenet.Mido: Not sure what that run is just yet, but I'll figure it out mid-jogging.
[26.11.2022 23:01:35] IMG|Tidore: Take a loop through the race circuit if you haven't already.
[26.11.2022 23:01:40] IMG|Tidore: It's great for inspiration.
[26.11.2022 23:02:03] AWES-Resolution: Just wait until we get the guns rolling during the future events for a rush.
[26.11.2022 23:02:15] Nenet.Mido: Deflectors are touchy feely today. Don't want an asteroid to overload the capacitors.
[26.11.2022 23:02:46] IMG|Tidore: I don't believe that for a second. You came here, into an asteroid field.
[26.11.2022 23:02:51] Nenet.Mido: You lot stay moderately safe out here.
[26.11.2022 23:02:54] Nenet.Mido: You don't have to.
[26.11.2022 23:02:57] IMG|Tidore: You're calibrations are fine.
[26.11.2022 23:03:01] Nenet.Mido: I wouldn't believe it either.
[26.11.2022 23:03:19] IMG|Tidore: Ah, well. Their loss.
[26.11.2022 23:03:22] Nenet.Mido: But a bold faced lie is a bit more interesting than the truth.
[26.11.2022 23:03:27] Nenet.Mido: Toodles.
[26.11.2022 23:03:43] AWES-Resolution: Good bye to you
[26.11.2022 23:03:57] IMG|Tidore: What about you, trader? Don't you want to try the racing circuit?
[26.11.2022 23:04:37] AWES-Resolution: Well not sure how well the big guy will fit through these loops...
[26.11.2022 23:04:57] IMG|Tidore: Or do you need a gold miner? I can probably organize someone.
[26.11.2022 23:05:32] AWES-Resolution: Well if you'd like I guess we could fill up Ulster a bit. Thanks!
[26.11.2022 23:06:08] IMG|Tidore: Alright, let's see.
[26.11.2022 23:06:16] 2022-11-26 23:06:16 SMT Traffic control alert: IMG|Tidore has requested to dock
[26.11.2022 23:07:16] IMG|Pyrite: Hiho! You need some rock-breaking?
[26.11.2022 23:07:27] AWES-Resolution: yes! gladly thanks!
[26.11.2022 23:11:51] Your cargo is now full.
[26.11.2022 23:12:09] IMG|Pyrite: I'm at the end of my shift, so I probably can't help you any further.
[26.11.2022 23:12:22] AWES-Resolution: thanks for the assist! Sending some pay your way!
[26.11.2022 23:12:33] [2022-11-26] 23:12:33 You have sent 7.500.000 credits to IMG|Pyrite.

Good day Executive Offices,

With the decommission of Trader's Hub Port 34, I'm still thrilled to have the opportunity to captain the Dunlin repaired by our friends in Bering!

In my first report, however, I must concede we ran into some Hessians requiring 'donations' for their cause in Rheinland. Comms were kept confidential and secure during the transaction despite having a mix of different ships in the convoy going to New London.

Hessians in Stuttgart - Nov 29

[28.11.2022 05:30:14] Jotunn: Halt
[28.11.2022 05:30:26] Jotunn: Cut your engines.
[28.11.2022 05:30:31] Jotunn: Or you would be harmed.
[28.11.2022 05:30:32] AWES-Renaissance: hello hessians
[28.11.2022 05:30:40] RDV-CROATOAN: greetings
[28.11.2022 05:30:49] Hauler_Cmdr_Rico: hello good sir
[28.11.2022 05:31:00] AWES-Renaissance: How can our friends in Rheinland be supported today? How goes the fight?
[28.11.2022 05:31:22] Jotunn: There is a strange convoy, aber you are here with an ore from our space.
[28.11.2022 05:31:38] AWES-Renaissance: Well how else can we earn?
[28.11.2022 05:31:42] Jotunn: There is a tax for this, plus we are in need for a support.
[28.11.2022 05:32:05] AWES-Renaissance: Well support has always been there. We concur and can provide.
[28.11.2022 05:32:14] AWES-Renaissance: What do you perceive to be fair?
[28.11.2022 05:32:22] Jotunn: A ten million from that hauler and 4 from you, Interspace vessel.
[28.11.2022 05:32:55] Hauler_Cmdr_Rico: a little high dont you think
[28.11.2022 05:32:58] AWES-Renaissance: I'm sure this will be put to good use
[28.11.2022 05:33:15] Jotunn: Back in my day we asked twenty for the same cargo
[28.11.2022 05:33:35] Jotunn: Let's say I am making a discount as a friend of my partner.
[28.11.2022 05:33:36] [2022-11-28] 05:33:35 You have sent 14.000.000 credits to Jotunn.
[28.11.2022 05:33:42] AWES-Renaissance: funds sent
[28.11.2022 05:33:47] Jotunn: That's a good spirit.
[28.11.2022 05:33:57] AWES-Renaissance: Be sure to tell your superiors about how IC still supports
[28.11.2022 05:33:58] Jotunn: And this carrier is empty, huh?
[28.11.2022 05:34:45] Jotunn: Good luck out of there

Sincerely,
