Greetings. My name is James Clarke. I am the CEO AP Manufacturing, a Sirian ship building company that resides far away from Gallia in the eastern part of Sirius.
I don't live under a rock, therefore I am well aware of the current relations between Gallia and Sirius. News of the war even reaches the furthest reaches of Sirius in the Edgeworlds. Rather than view Gallia as a hostile threat like the rest of Sirius, I see them as... a potential business partner, to say the least.
I don't know of your customs and how differently you handle things to the rest of Sirius, therefore excuse me if I sound impudent in my attempts to contact you. I distanced myself and my company away from the war mostly. I'm not entirely sure I'm contacting the right people, but it's a shot in the dark.

Bonjour Monsieur Clarke,
it is nice to hear that you do not live under rocks and have no real interest in the current stubborn approach some Sirians adopt when talking to Gallia.
You message is still however intriguing as we also have far flung data collection capability and AP Industries is known to us. From our records your firm is the main supplier of ships to the Guild of Bounty Hunters.
As you are no doubt aware of the current feelings that Gallia has to these people we await with interest exactly what you are contacting us for.
Regards
Thibault

Greetings, thank you for your response Mr. d'Allemange.
With recent structural changes across The Bounty Hunters Guild, AP Manufacturing and The Core, attitudes from the latter two towards Gallia have shifted. Whereas in the past, when all three organizations where generally hostile towards Gallia, the latter two have a new opinion on things. APM owns The Core, however BHG has split from us. Unfortunately, there's little we can do to control the instances where Bounty Hunters step into the field of house politics and house wars.
My interest in contacting you is that I wonder if Gallia and it's people would be interested in engaging in business with APM. I see a potential Market across the other side of the sector. AP Manufacturing makes some of, if not the best, ships in Sirius. From Light Fighters to Capital Ships, we have the market covered. If you would like to see our catalog, just ask.
And if it's not ships you want, perhaps you may be interested in acquiring some of the interesting finds that The Core obtains within the edgeworlds - far away from Gallia?

Bonjour Monsieur Clarke,
we would of course be pleased to entertain the idea of ship trade however we would need to be convinced. It is a daring claim to suggest your ships may be the best in this sector of the Universe, unless of course you were not including Gallia in that statement.
Any sizable trade would need to be based upon the evaluation of your equipment, the volume you could deliver and of course any fuel delivery modifications that would allow us to use our normal fuel sources.
We do of however still have reservations of your other customers, it is well know that dealers in weapons will often supply both sides of a conflict for their own gain.
Regards

Greetings.
I was not including Gallia in that statement, as we have not been able to look at the inner workings of any Gallic ships. APM ships are superior to all other Sirian ships.
If Gallia would like to do an evaluation, AP Manufacturing could deliver a single ship for you to inspect. We could provide some fuel for you to use when evaluating the ship, whilst you try to see if you could power it by any other means. We can also provide equipment to get the ship running, if needed.
As I have said, The Bounty Hunters Guild generally tries to stay out of house politics, but there's not much I can do to prevent the odd stray hunter overestimating his luck and throwing himself ship-first into a battle between Gallia and her enemies.
