From: Senior Lieutenant Mehmed Selim, CPW-Matochkin, Zvezdny Gorodok.
Hail Comrades! Tonight I can report only one thing, and that is we have struck a decisive encounter with the Junkers Congress. I know, going alone with my crew and my gunboat into Liberty Space was an astronomical risk, one which likely would have resulted in the loss of ship and all hands -- and we nearly met our end at the hands of the Junker's own defenses. Once that mishap was cleared up and we headed to a less fortified system, the resulting discussion has affirmed the Junkers Congress will be headed to New Moscow soon enough, where we can engage in further discussion and contracting of their specific skills. Being as ambiguous of a group as they are they should prove useful in aiding us against the corrupt and greedy who continue oppressing the people of Sirius.

[15.08.2016 04:12:49] SCRA|CPW-Matochkin: Selim: Except your automated defenses have been a bit overzealous.
[15.08.2016 04:13:13] .:j:.Demeter|Bill: They protect us fairly well, give me a moment an I'll fix that up fer you.
[15.08.2016 04:13:21] SCRA|CPW-Matochkin: Selim: Alright.

[15.08.2016 04:16:23] SCRA|CPW-Matochkin: Selim: I'm reading your auto-defenses as non-hostile to us now, at least most of them.
[15.08.2016 04:17:28] .:j:.Demeter|Bill: Station ain't shootin at you now.
[15.08.2016 04:20:36] SCRA|CPW-Matochkin: Selim: You mind if we take this conversation somewhere there aren't six fighters trying to gun us down at every-
[15.08.2016 04:20:42] SCRA|CPW-Matochkin: Selim: every second?
[15.08.2016 04:20:58] .:j:.Demeter|Bill: Reckon that'd be a good idea.
[15.08.2016 04:21:06] SCRA|CPW-Matochkin: Selim: Let's go then.
[15.08.2016 04:21:47] SCRA|CPW-Matochkin: Selim: So we heard in the reports that the Premier was opening up contact with the Congress.
[15.08.2016 04:21:58] SCRA|CPW-Matochkin: Selim: I elected to verify this myself.
[15.08.2016 04:22:12] .:j:.Demeter|Bill: That's what we're hopin.
[15.08.2016 04:22:26] .:j:.Demeter|Bill: Reckon we got a lot to be offerin each other.
[15.08.2016 04:22:44] SCRA|CPW-Matochkin: Selim: I can imagine, the Coalition is quite underpresenced here in Liberty.
[15.08.2016 04:22:58] SCRA|CPW-Matochkin: Selim: It'd be nice to have at least a few Libertonians who aren't out to crush us.
[15.08.2016 04:23:25] .:j:.Demeter|Bill: Junkers are good at movin commodities undetected.
[15.08.2016 04:23:55] SCRA|CPW-Matochkin: Selim: As I can imagine.
[15.08.2016 04:25:09] .:j:.Demeter|Bill: Say fer example, y'all're in need of Pharmecueticals.
[15.08.2016 04:25:43] .:j:.Demeter|Bill: We'd be good fer gittin 'em to y'all.
[15.08.2016 04:26:12] SCRA|CPW-Matochkin: Selim: I thought all the Junkers really did was sift through the trash of the Houses and clean up the best of it.
[15.08.2016 04:26:14] .:j:.Demeter|Bill: An I hear tell y'all've got yerselves a stockpile of munitions an such yer wantin to sale.
[15.08.2016 04:26:32] SCRA|CPW-Matochkin: Selim: Ah yes.
[15.08.2016 04:26:38] .:j:.Demeter|Bill: That'd be what we want folks to think.
[15.08.2016 04:26:55] SCRA|CPW-Matochkin: Selim: Seems that disguise has worked for you lot so far.
[15.08.2016 04:27:03] SCRA|CPW-Matochkin: Selim: But yes. The Volgograd Munitions.
[15.08.2016 04:27:29] SCRA|CPW-Matochkin: Selim: VI manufactures some of the finest personal armaments in Sirius.
[15.08.2016 04:27:38] SCRA|CPW-Matochkin: Selim: Naturally we need to get them where revolutionaries can use them best.
[15.08.2016 04:28:47] .:j:.Demeter|Bill: Have you got an idea of where they'd be best put to use?
[15.08.2016 04:29:21] SCRA|CPW-Matochkin: Selim: Let me think. I'm not VI, so I wouldn't know exactly.
[15.08.2016 04:29:43] .:j:.Demeter|Bill: Reckon we'd find a place fer 'em.
[15.08.2016 04:30:29] .:j:.Demeter|Bill: I am wonderin though, what space do y'all claim?
[15.08.2016 04:30:37] SCRA|CPW-Matochkin: Selim: If memory serves me it's people like the Crayterians and the Blood Dragons who need them most.
[15.08.2016 04:31:11] SCRA|CPW-Matochkin: Selim: The Coalition claims dominion over a few territories as of now.
[15.08.2016 04:31:56] SCRA|CPW-Matochkin: Selim: Our primary territory is "New Moscow", or Omega-52 as the Houses like to designate it.
[15.08.2016 04:32:23] .:j:.Demeter|Bill: I ain't pryin fer infermation or nothin, bu I read the comm and we ain't lookin to step on y'all toes with some
[15.08.2016 04:32:27] .:j:.Demeter|Bill: of what we haul.
[15.08.2016 04:32:46] SCRA|CPW-Matochkin: Selim: Right.
[15.08.2016 04:33:13] .:j:.Demeter|Bill: An I'd hate to ruin this 'fore it really gits started.
[15.08.2016 04:33:17] SCRA|CPW-Matochkin: Selim: I can send you a copy of relevant Coalition law on the matter if you're concerned.
[15.08.2016 04:33:30] .:j:.Demeter|Bill: That'd be appreciated.
[15.08.2016 04:33:53] SCRA|CPW-Matochkin: Selim: Comms, make it happen.
[15.08.2016 04:33:59] Death: =207= was put out of action by a hostile vessel.
[15.08.2016 04:34:23] SCRA|CPW-Matochkin: *The communications officer forwards a copy of Coalition Law to his Junker counterpart*
[15.08.2016 04:34:59] .:j:.Demeter|Bill: Thank you. I'll read up on 'em after our chat here.
[15.08.2016 04:35:39] SCRA|CPW-Matochkin: Selim: Just a quick summary for you:
[15.08.2016 04:36:16] .:j:.Demeter|Bill: What sort of fees are involved in a trade visa with y'all?
[15.08.2016 04:36:32] SCRA|CPW-Matochkin: Selim: No Cardamine, no slaves, no Corsair-derived artifacts, no unauthorized Nomad gunk, none of that wierd Gallic crap.
[15.08.2016 04:37:01] .:j:.Demeter|Bill: Heh, ain't no worries on the Gallic issue. We ain't on good terms with 'em.
[15.08.2016 04:37:13] SCRA|CPW-Matochkin: Selim: As long as you are registered with Coalition Border Control and have proper papers you will find no problems.
[15.08.2016 04:37:35] SCRA|CPW-Matochkin: Selim: We do not charge for it, it isn't our manner to do so.
[15.08.2016 04:38:42] .:j:.Demeter|Bill: Hell, that's better then those Core scum. We done paid 'em to haul supplies in to 'em. Then they shot us down.
[15.08.2016 04:39:13] SCRA|CPW-Matochkin: Selim: The Core are barbaric fools who need to be stopped by any means necessary.
[15.08.2016 04:39:20] .:j:.Demeter|Bill: All over tryin to save a few lives on Freeport 11.
[15.08.2016 04:39:35] SCRA|CPW-Matochkin: Selim: Ah, Freeport 11. I fought there during the crisis.
[15.08.2016 04:39:45] .:j:.Demeter|Bill: Couldn't agree with you more.
[15.08.2016 04:40:34] SCRA|CPW-Matochkin: Selim: Indeed. I find it a shame the Houses buy into their whole scheme.
[15.08.2016 04:40:35] .:j:.Demeter|Bill: I remember. Y'all even provided escort to me once or twice while haulin DROPS.
[15.08.2016 04:40:53] .:j:.Demeter|Bill: An we don't forgit things like that.
[15.08.2016 04:41:44] SCRA|CPW-Matochkin: Selim: The corrupt and greedy will pay in due time.
[15.08.2016 04:42:49] SCRA|CPW-Matochkin: Selim: The Zoners deserved a lot better treatment than what the Core gave them.
[15.08.2016 04:43:12] SCRA|CPW-Matochkin: Selim: They got lulled into a sense that they would be protected and in turn became the victims.
[15.08.2016 04:43:24] SCRA|CPW-Matochkin: Selim: Disgusting things happened out there in the Omicrons.
[15.08.2016 04:43:35] .:j:.Demeter|Bill: I take it yer not jus 'gainst Core. Y'all're 'gainst all Houses?
[15.08.2016 04:43:55] SCRA|CPW-Matochkin: Selim: Let me put it in fairly distinct terms.
[15.08.2016 04:44:05] SCRA|CPW-Matochkin: Selim: The Coalition is the literal antithesis of the House Governments.
[15.08.2016 04:44:32] SCRA|CPW-Matochkin: Selim: Beyond the capitalist-communist struggle there is more in play and consideration in our fight.
[15.08.2016 04:46:02] .:j:.Demeter|Bill: I follow what yer sayin. Let me know if'n I'm right in this:
[15.08.2016 04:46:41] .:j:.Demeter|Bill: Sirius needs a strong leader an unified people what with the real enemy knockin on our doors, Nomads.
[15.08.2016 04:47:45] SCRA|CPW-Matochkin: Selim: The Nomads are certainly a threat that the Houses seem content to only send token forces against.
[15.08.2016 05:05:12] SCRA|CPW-Matochkin: Selim: So...
[15.08.2016 05:05:24] .:j:.Demeter|Bill: I been meanin to make my way down to y'alls space an have a look.
[15.08.2016 05:05:35] .:j:.Demeter|Bill: Reckon I'll be down there soon.
[15.08.2016 05:05:53] SCRA|CPW-Matochkin: Selim: Once you have all the requisite documentation you'll be more than welcome to head to New Moscow.
[15.08.2016 05:06:31] .:j:.Demeter|Bill: As a way of showin respect to y'all, what sort of commodities might I bring in as a gift on my first visit?
[15.08.2016 05:07:22] .:j:.Demeter|Bill: 'Course, I'll be waitin fer permission to enter y'alls space. Figured I might visit a Zoner friend nearby while paperwork
[15.08.2016 05:07:26] .:j:.Demeter|Bill: is being processed.
[15.08.2016 05:07:31] SCRA|CPW-Matochkin: Selim: The Coalition always has need of a wide variety of materials.
[15.08.2016 05:07:53] SCRA|CPW-Matochkin: Selim: We can offer a good rate for a variety of base supplies or mineral wealth that you can offer.
[15.08.2016 05:08:25] .:j:.Demeter|Bill: Interestin, what sort of minerals is y'all interested in?
[15.08.2016 05:09:46] .:j:.Demeter|Bill: I was keen on bringin y'all somethin a bit more personal. Some cigars, liquer, anythin y'all ain't normally able to git.
[15.08.2016 05:10:32] SCRA|CPW-Matochkin: Selim: The Coalition always has plenty of Vodka to handle its tastes, but I imagine you can think of something.
[15.08.2016 05:10:59] .:j:.Demeter|Bill: I reckon I can.
[15.08.2016 05:11:41] SCRA|CPW-Matochkin: Selim: As for the minerals we have at least some value in just about any sort of it, so I'll leave that consideration to you.
[15.08.2016 05:11:57] SCRA|CPW-Matochkin: Selim: I'm a combat pilot after all, not a merchant.
[15.08.2016 05:12:33] .:j:.Demeter|Bill: I've gotta tell you, y'all ain't the boogey men I heard you was. I reckon this'll be the start of somethin good fer the
[15.08.2016 05:12:37] .:j:.Demeter|Bill: both of us.
[15.08.2016 05:12:56] SCRA|CPW-Matochkin: Selim: "Boogeymen" is mainly a picture the Houses paint on us to try and denounce our cause.
[15.08.2016 05:13:21] SCRA|CPW-Matochkin: Selim: We're a lot more civilized than their vision attempts to dictate.
[15.08.2016 05:15:09] .:j:.Demeter|Bill: Reckon so. I best be gittin these supplies in 'fore I bunk down fer some rest.
[15.08.2016 05:15:50] SCRA|CPW-Matochkin: Selim: And we had best get back to Coalition territory for the time being.
[15.08.2016 05:16:19] SCRA|CPW-Matochkin: Selim: I'm certain we will be in touch before long, in person or otherwise.
[15.08.2016 05:17:12] .:j:.Demeter|Bill: Lookin forward to it, an I'll take the time to read up on y'alls laws and space. Don't want no reason fer us to
[15.08.2016 05:17:17] .:j:.Demeter|Bill: have any incidents.
[15.08.2016 05:17:30] SCRA|CPW-Matochkin: Selim: Just a parting note.
[15.08.2016 05:17:47] SCRA|CPW-Matochkin: Selim: If you arrive in New Moscow from the Omega-9 side, you will quickly take note of the large debris field there.
[15.08.2016 05:18:16] SCRA|CPW-Matochkin: Selim: It serves as a warning to those who have tresspassed and failed to defeat us in the past.
[15.08.2016 05:18:57] SCRA|CPW-Matochkin: Selim: I know our relations will not hit such an impasse, but regardless, I don't want to see any Junkers trying to clean it.
[15.08.2016 05:20:27] .:j:.Demeter|Bill: I git yer meanin. It's like our Puerto Rican Rift. It's a badge of honor. We won't touch none of the scrap floatin there.
[15.08.2016 05:20:44] Death: Soric suffered a self-inflicted catastrophic decompression.
[15.08.2016 05:20:55] SCRA|CPW-Matochkin: Selim: Good to know.
[15.08.2016 05:21:31] .:j:.Demeter|Bill: Safe travels Selim, if'n you need a place to rest 'fore headin out, feel free to use Junker's Town.
[15.08.2016 05:21:51] SCRA|CPW-Matochkin: Selim: We'll make a stop to refuel and head back to Coalition Space.
[15.08.2016 05:22:34] SCRA|CPW-Matochkin: Selim: Hope to see you in New Moscow then Bill.
[15.08.2016 05:24:01] SCRA|CPW-Matochkin: Selim: Alright, fare well! PERSONAL NOTE: We were able to dodge and weave our way through Rheinland Space back to New Moscow and made landing.
