Elders, I have spent some time in Delta now, and would like to make my first officail report.
Our relations with our neighbors, the Zoners, have been good as of late, mainly due to the fact that they need our help with the Keepers emergance and their feeling that Delta is theirs. The number of bounty hunters and mercs in delta is a concern as they operate with little interferance. Many see Freeport 11 as thier base. The much hyped nomad threat, has been slow to materilize, the nomad attacks seem to be directed at Freeport 11 not Yaren, and dispite the Zoners proclomations, the nomad attacks have been small and limitied. That is not to say that the threat is not there, these nomads are diffrent, more tactical then the ones we have dealt with in the past. This is of concern to me, but the threat at the moment may be acceptable. I would ask that the Elders discuss the matter, and with that in mind, consider stationing a Cruiser, if one is avalble, at Yaren. I have my Gun Boat, but many times, that is much less then what is needed to protect Yaren. Lastly, much to my chagrin, there has been a rash lately of large ships, attacking our milita piliots(NPC'S) in delta, it seems the "in thing" is to test your mettle against the Yaren defenses to show you've gots some balls(Rep Fixing). We ought to show these kids, what it's like to try and test yourself against The Brotherhood.
On another topic, my sources at Islay tell me the USMG is becoming active again. Last time they showed there faces they were minning in Gamma without any permision from us, and ignored our hails, the resulting fight destroyed 2 of their ships vs one of ours. Hopefully they wont try to mine gamma again, but keeps your eyes open.
