PRIORITY MESSAGE
FROM: Alex Cummings, CEO
TO: All Employees
To all security employees:
Until further notice, the UKMG is no longer allowed in Rheinland space per the RM. Should you come across any UKMG tagged ship within Rheinland Space, demand that they leave immediately and escort them to the nearest exit. Should they fail to comply, you are authorized to use deadly force. They are accused of theft and embezzlement from our fatherland's economy. This is not to be tolerated and we will provide assistance to our partners in RM in this matter.
To all shipping employees:
Furthermore with the latest developments with the UKMG, Rheinland could possibly be facing a shortage in its supplies of Niobium. Please make your best efforts to begin the process of importing Niobium to our home. Please contact me directly should you need to know the best location at which to acquire this commodity.
Thank You,
Alex Cummings

ON MY WAY OUT OF RETIREMENT
Was on patrol when i received a call from Rheinland Navy requesting assistance, along with 193 we answered his call and found RLB Wolf close to Planet New Berlin. We engaged him and showed him what it means to mess with the security dept.
Alas it was to much for him and possibly due to a steering malfunction crashed into the planet, I was unable to record the incident due to damage to my onboard camera system. I shall return to Alster shipyard for repairs.

Eric Nelson here reporting in. Was flying in Hamburg today with RepEx-Security|193 when we encountered a pair of nasty Unioners. The two ignored me in my transport and teamed up agianst 193. Thus I decided to pay a nearby Junker in a Gun Boat to assist. The Unioners fought bravely for a short time, but in the end their cowardice got the better of them as the ran away.
Not long after I accepted a contract from Ali's.Sabre to bring Optical Chips down from New Tokyo to his ship in Sigma 13. I accepted this contract and delivered the goods succesfully with 193 help of course. He and I split the profits evenly, and went on our seperate ways.

INCOMING MESSAGE
FROM: Alex Cummings, CEO
TO: Shipping Dept; Security Dept
CC: P Funk; Legal Dept; PR Dept
I have something that I need to say to all of you. We are a professional corporation, therefore we must demonstrate professionalism in all that we do. First off, we DO NOT hire pirates for any tasks whatsoever. The Junkers are pirates, and are therefore to be seen as enemies to our cause and not as allies. Now the Junkers do have some understanding within the Rheinland government, so we will not attack them without cause, but under no circumstances should we ever have friendly relations with them. It is very bad PR and our PR department now has some work ahead of them. Associations with any pirate organization will not be tolerated and will from now on be considered grounds for termination.
Secondly, I wanted to briefly institute a new policy. From this point forward, our enforcement of the Nomad ban will be jurisdictionally confined to Rheinland space only. Please do not enforce the ban in any other section of Sirius.
Thank You,
Alex Cummings

My appologies sir. I was in my Transport at the time and the Junker had originally declared his neutrality in the matter, but once the second unioner arrived I (without thinking of the ramifications) hired the Junker to even the odds, so to speak. I take full responsibility and apologize with the utmost sincerity for any inconvenience I caused the company. Thank you in advance for your understanding.

Security forces were close by during this time. I was not contacted to provide you with assistance. RepEx-Security's primary objective is to defend to the death our trading operations. Why did you not call for us during this time. In future please ensure you follow protocol and call for backup from the security teams and we will ensure you are provided with significant backup to repel these idiots.

In line with our recent expansion and the recruitment of 4 new security personnell I have begun planning for the aquisition of a rheinland Battleship. This ship is to be based at our centre of operations in Hamburg. Recent events have shown that the unioner fleet in nearby Bering is sizing up its operation at a surprising pace. One of our cruisers was outgunned and outnumbered yesterday. As a means of shoring up our defensive potential I see this as a valuable opportunity to stake our claim in the most dramatic way. Our interests and the security of shipping lines through bering and rheinland may be at stake should the Unioners decide to increase the volume of their capital ships. At present we have one confirmed sighting and engagement with A Rheinland Pirate Cruiser which was carrying advanced shield and armour technology. It is also a matter of principle that a corporation with our vast wealth should have a better defensive capability at its disposal to deal with potential threats. Our supply lines to Liberty space form part of the lifeblood of our trading operation.
To aid in this endeavour I am persoanlly overseeing a substantial investment from one of my private trading interests. I will not however be piloting the vessel once it is launched. I request permission to move forward swiftly with this plan and begin a recruitment process to assess the potential of a new security officer. Internal applications for the post of Battleship commander are welcomed on all occasion however I reserve the right to employ a new member of staff should they better meet the criteria.
Please give me your thoughts on this matter as soon as possible as I wish to move swiftly to get ahead of the impending threat.
I was on routine patrol in hamburg when i noticed a Unioner and Outcast ship in Rheinland space. I proceeded to Planet Hamburg and saw the two ships engaged in combat. I entered the combat and did not notice two more Unioner ships enter the Hamburg system.
I tried to contact the Rheinland Military, but my comms had been taken out, by a sneak attack from one of the Unioner ships. Not one to dodge a fight, I continued to engage the enemy until my ship was to badly damaged to sustain the fight any longer. I managed to jettison my escape pod just before my ship exploded. Shortly after this the RM entered the system and the Unioner scum ran rather than face the might of the RM, my thanks to you guys you saved my bacon.
The doc's say that i will be up and about in a day or two, the G Force is a killer when you eject, so Unioners be aware once the new ship is operational, I shall once again be patrolling the trade lanes.
Got the new ship today she's a bute, took her for a spin around the trade lanes. had a few run in's with hessians, outcast, mollys and rogues ( I get about a bit ). All fell to my guns and soon my hold was full, rather then shop around and get the best price for them I dumped them at Freeport 1 for a small profit. had the Slavers been around i would have sold the dogs into slavery. Next time i might use the pilots for target practice.
Some might call me ruthless, heartless, but my dark side is coming to the front. It was something that i had hoped would not happen but when you hear the cries and the dogs pleading for mercy, it brings a smile to my lips.
