》》》 Subject: Some piece of intelligence
Esteemed defences forces of Liberty,
I am sending you this communication so that you may be aware of what is happenning right outside Manhattan.
Someone named Charlie Jukins just came to me and wanted to sell me some advanced weaponry. As a trader, I only saw there a potential fortune to be made, especially since the actual owner was selling them three million per cannon.
Of course, I asked him where they were from, how he got them in his possession, and most importantly the manifest, so that I know what I'm buying.
Apparently, those are from Kusari. But he never went farther, quite suspisciouly.
Then a kind Freelancer warned me about the weapons he was selling: Nomad technology.
I refused the offer and went back to work.
Attached you will find the communication logs and a scanner proof of my allegations.
Hoping that I was of help on such a matter, I bid you good day.
Morritz Kucher
Kapitän of Daumann Heavy Industries.

[12.01.2021 18:40:26] [Hunter]Charlie.Jukins: Good day sir!
[12.01.2021 18:40:35] {DHC}Erlangen: Good day.
[12.01.2021 18:40:48] [Hunter]Charlie.Jukins: Where might you be heading this fine day?
[12.01.2021 18:40:54] {DHC}Erlangen: Manhattan.
[12.01.2021 18:40:58] [Hunter]Charlie.Jukins: I see.
[12.01.2021 18:41:11] [Hunter]Charlie.Jukins: Would you like to hear about a great business proposition?
[12.01.2021 18:41:23] {DHC}Erlangen: Why not.
[12.01.2021 18:41:26] [Hunter]Charlie.Jukins: Oh my.
[12.01.2021 18:41:28] {DHC}Erlangen: Let me hear it.
[12.01.2021 18:41:33] [Hunter]Charlie.Jukins: Sure!
[12.01.2021 18:42:10] [Hunter]Charlie.Jukins: I am a travelling salesman, on behalf of Musashi Innovations.
[12.01.2021 18:42:24] [Hunter]Charlie.Jukins: Selling weapons to folk I pass by.
[12.01.2021 18:42:43] {DHC}Erlangen: Right, and how does that concern me,
[12.01.2021 18:42:47] [Hunter]Charlie.Jukins: Very unique and highly collectable among the higher ups of society.
[12.01.2021 18:43:13] {DHC}Erlangen: Okay. You have peaked my curiosity. Do you have any sample to let me witness their power?
[12.01.2021 18:43:13] [Hunter]Charlie.Jukins: A Rheinlander of your status would surely benefit from having such an item.
[12.01.2021 18:43:17] {DHC}Erlangen: What's the price?
[12.01.2021 18:43:22] {DHC}Erlangen: And where did you get it?
[12.01.2021 18:43:31] [Hunter]Charlie.Jukins: Sadly I do not, but I am willing to sell them for a modest price.
[12.01.2021 18:43:49] {DHC}Erlangen: How much?
[12.01.2021 18:43:53] [Hunter]Charlie.Jukins: As to where I got them I have brought them from Kusari, the home of Musashi Innovations.
[12.01.2021 18:44:04] [Hunter]Charlie.Jukins: 3 million per weapon, sir.
[12.01.2021 18:44:26] {DHC}Erlangen: Do you have any manifest on which I can see their characteristics?
[12.01.2021 18:44:37] Olivia.Sable: Heya, Jukins. Mind telling me how you got your hands on those Nomad weapons?
[12.01.2021 18:44:37] {DHC}Erlangen: I'm not buying without enough information.
[12.01.2021 18:44:56] {DHC}Erlangen: What?! Is that what you are trying to sell me?
[12.01.2021 18:45:04] [Hunter]Charlie.Jukins: Understanable. I do have them aboard if you scan me you can find all the information about them.
[12.01.2021 18:45:23] [Hunter]Charlie.Jukins: Nonsense, I am not selling anything illegal I assure you.
[12.01.2021 18:45:41] [Hunter]Charlie.Jukins: Pay no mind to this other person.
[12.01.2021 18:45:46] Olivia.Sable: Hm.
[12.01.2021 18:46:26] Olivia.Sable: I wouldn't do any business with someone carrying that kinda tech, Erlangen.
[12.01.2021 18:46:34] Olivia.Sable: Who knows what else he's got aboard.
[12.01.2021 18:46:46] [Hunter]Charlie.Jukins: As I stated this equipment is from Kusari's Musashi Innovations.
[12.01.2021 18:46:57] {DHC}Erlangen: Who knows, I might be interested.
[12.01.2021 18:46:59] [Hunter]Charlie.Jukins: Do you have something against Kusari?
[12.01.2021 18:47:24] Olivia.Sable: I have something against those squid guns you're hauling.
[12.01.2021 18:47:42] Olivia.Sable: Don't deny that's what they are. I didn't install these fancy scanners just to be duped.
[12.01.2021 18:47:51] [Hunter]Charlie.Jukins: What do you mean squid guns?
[12.01.2021 18:48:14] Olivia.Sable: Reading all kinda Nomad weaponry aboard your ship.
[12.01.2021 18:48:26] [Hunter]Charlie.Jukins: Your scanners are mistaken.
[12.01.2021 18:48:31] Olivia.Sable: I doubt it.
[12.01.2021 18:48:38] [Hunter]Charlie.Jukins: So, then.
[12.01.2021 18:48:49] [Hunter]Charlie.Jukins: Your intereted then? Great!
[12.01.2021 18:48:57] {DHC}Erlangen: Well not anymore.
[12.01.2021 18:49:05] {DHC}Erlangen: This Freelancer here is right.
[12.01.2021 18:49:12] [Hunter]Charlie.Jukins: Oh?
[12.01.2021 18:49:17] [Hunter]Charlie.Jukins: And how do you know?
[12.01.2021 18:49:28] {DHC}Erlangen: I don't want any business with Nomad stuff.
[12.01.2021 18:49:33] [Hunter]Charlie.Jukins: Sounds like you have something against Kusari.
[12.01.2021 18:49:58] Olivia.Sable: *chuckles* To be fair, Rheinlanders and Kusarians aren't known for their cordial relations.
[12.01.2021 18:53:25] [Hunter]Charlie.Jukins: These are a great status symbol to anyone willing to buy.
[12.01.2021 18:53:48] [Hunter]Charlie.Jukins: Have you reconsidered Rheinalnder?
[12.01.2021 18:53:53] [Hunter]Charlie.Jukins: Before you go?
[12.01.2021 18:53:56] {DHC}Erlangen: No.
[12.01.2021 18:54:01] [Hunter]Charlie.Jukins: Thats a shame.
Incoming Transmission Liberty Navy, 1st Fleet Commander Jeremiah Sawyer
Mr. Morritz Kocher
We appreciate your report, along with the attached evidence.
Ms. Sable was in fact correct, those weaponry are of Nomad origin, and they are not the Adapted Nomad weaponry that are much more common, thus they are quite dangerous.
Such weaponry are usually found on vessels in possession of Wild pilots, so that's usually a dead giveaway of what one might be dealing with.
I'll foward the information to First Fleet High Command.
Once we find this individual, we'll be sure to have a nice little chat with him.
That'd be all
Jeremiah Sawyer Commander, 1FLT
Liberty Navy
