Bristol Ship Catalogue

Sorry for the informal message, and the lack of a videofeed. I am knee deep in paperwork and refits as I am currently going through my bookkeeping and maintenance and planning for some changes for my operation going forward. Now that I am to expect more money than I can handle as a single person, I intend to outfit some companions with vessels for specialty work, there is only so much my little Camara can do on its own.

I am Lusus, I unfortunately am not graced with a surname, surprising, I know. The problems with being pulled out of a wreck with no memories when I was little.
The reason for contacting you while I remember to, since I usually spend my time procuring materials and so on from systems beyond most inhabited space is the following:
My expected bottom line for my next couple of deliveries is going to take me out of "independent operations" and into "group project" territory, and I am contacting the reputable shipbuilders of Sirius to get a lineup of things possible to order via their services, as well as a quote on potential prices so I can plan ahead. It may take some time for me to finish the contracts, but I fully intend to peruse your services if I am able
I am in need of the following, or something similar, going forward:

A Vector class exploration vessel.
And an Archon class miner.

If you have these within your catalogue or equivalent vessels and the price is achieveable for someone of my means, I would like to talk prices with your company. I just need a number so I can plan for how much I need to set aside over the next couple of deliveries.

I think these vessels should be suitable for the small company I am putting together to go on a longer trip together.
Of interest to people such as you, we also procure specialty materials quite frequently on our trips so if you would also have need of something in particular to make these things happen for me and my crew, so if there is a need for a particular material to make either vessel happen, I am equipped to fetch roughly 300 units at a time, regardless of material.

Thank you for your time and consideration.

Good afternoon Lusus,

My name is Aria Hull, Assistant Director for Sales here on Bristol Bay Station, and I will be handling this communication in regards to our manufacturing at Akutan Production Facility in Bering.

I won’t press on the issues of lacking a surname - I’m sure there have already been several in your career, and am already being thrown issues by our own computer systems. If there’s anything the system dislikes, it’s probably an empty box. I would presume, though, that by your beginnings and by the fact that you’ve yet to find a surname that you operate under the Zoner ideology? We’re more than happy to do business if that’s the case.

As to the ships you’ve had interest in, Bristol C&M does not currently produce the S-CEV01 Starfliers "Vector"-Class Compact Exploration Vessel by virtue of the more costly issues in the integrated scanner system. My apologies.

Bristol C&M does produce the Samura-designed T-2419-U "Archon" Modular Asteroid Miner. We’re willing to begin production for one of these vessels at the cost of 15.000.000 cr. If this is acceptable, please let us know.

Thank you for your time, and I look forward to hearing back from you.

I find surnames are for people with families, or who run the risk of ever meeting anyone else with the same first name.
So I've never really needed to choose one, Personally.

Zoner is a close enough approximation.
Most of my history since has been assisting researchers both within and outside of house space on occasion. Cambridge and Heisenburg have been notable stops in recent years.
As well as resource runs for some of the freeports and the like out there, when they can't get a hold of the shipments they need for some reason or another.

...But I digress.

It is a shame you do not produce the Vector, it is my priority acquisition among the two, but I will still be prepared to pay you for the T-2419-U "Archon" Modular Asteroid Miner to an account of your choosing within a reasonable timeframe. If it takes a day to respond it's probably a human error. Time seems to matter a lot less on long journeys. It's a little like being a different person the moment I step onto a station.

I would have considered one of your fine Bulwarks as well, I saw one pass by Freeport 2 just earlier today, but I have that money set aside for the Vector, as you are aware.
A whole fifth ship for a small service like ours tend to be a bit much for now, maybe next time we finish our work? For now, the bounty hunters are more than willing to screen our more intense stretches for a manageable price tag.

I'll probably receive your response, and file your payment, when I make it to Birmingham Station to pick up the friends who make up what crew we will have.
Be seeing you soon, I should think.

Good afternoon Lusus,

Apologies for the delay in getting back to you. Due to a shortage of Reactor Systems, we have suffered in delays with the production timeline of your T-2419-U "Archon" Modular Asteroid Miner.

Construction of the vessel was commenced on the 13th of this month, and I’m happy to say that the issue, for now has been somewhat alleviated. We can expect completion of the vessel within the hour, followed by testing of all ship systems in preparation for sale. Due to the wait, the majority of systems not associated with the reactor have already been tested or are currently undergoing testing while connected to station power. I’ve been informed by Akutan’s Director of Engineering, Ms Chellew, that testing of the reactor systems should be completed within eight hours, barring any significant issues.

As such, I am now authorized to accept payment. If you’re satisfied with the arrangement, please transfer the 15.000.000 cr to account Akutan. My apologies again for not being able to help you in the acquisition of a Vector-class, but I’m sure that you will find one reasonably easily.

Thank you for your time, and I look forward to hearing back from you.

Good afternoon, Miss Hull

This is wonderful timing for the both of us, I should think. I was a little worried when I did not see your response, but it let me take a detour into the Pennsylvania system to pick up a trainee I think will flourish as an escort pilot for our budding outfit. I will be sending you the payment momentarily via the account for my bookkeeper, Spicy.Nirvana so check your transactions log at your convenience.

Now, it will be a while until I can afford something more, but I've arranged for procurement of a Vector-class, so I, for my part, am all set. It's strange to think I could have lived on this three times over, but decided to provide opportunities instead.

I will be there to pick up the Archon at the earliest opportunity, we are excited to give the vessel a 'spin', as it were.
Once tests are complete, of course. You can send us the details for the handover at your leisure.
It has been a pleasure, and thank you kindly.

Payment Receipt
