Greetings,

My name's Andra Lancaster, I was recently given full command of the Zoner Colony ship "Exodus". I'd hope you haven't forgotten the ship yet, as it was recently in your space - with clearance of course.

Anyway, to the point. As we no longer have clearance to freely move through Magellan, Cortez or Manchester, I'd like to request an escort through the following systems - unless you would allow me to pass through unhindered with my weapons unmounted and put in the cargohold, I can do that too. I'm not as paranoid as Sullivan.

The route I plan on taking is:
Cortez, Manchester, New London, Cambridge, Omega-3 - my final destination is Freeport 1

I eagerly await your response.

HMS-Mosquito will escort you to your destination , no need to unmount anything . We will wait you in Cortez-Manchester jump gate !
Regards

Miss Lancaster,

Before any approval is given, I must inquire as to why you are intending to base from Freeport 1. Are you aware that Bretonian law still applies in the Omega-3 system, thus meaning your "Colony ship" would be in violation of said law? If you still wish to proceed, then why should the House of Bretonia grant an exception to the laws for your vessel? The answers to these questions will be discussed by the board, and you will then be presented with our answer.

To the Captain of the Mosquito, need I remind you that capital ship escorts are subject to approval by the Admiralty Board of House Bretonia, not on a whim of whichever captain gets there first.

On behalf of Her Majesty the Queen, and Her People in the Realm of Bretonia,

Fleet Admiral Michelle O'Brian
First Sea Lord
Commander of Her Majesty's Armed Forces
Bretonian Command

Greetings,

I just got on the Freeport, and I was yet again not aware of the sudden Bretonian rule on a previously independent system. You might want to make that easier to determine in the future.

My intentions are to protect the bases in the vicinity from anyone violating the no fire-zone rule.


As for entering other Bretonia, that you won't need to worry about. I have no intentions of being shot to death for entering your home systems. Unless I have no choice but to enter when fleeing from hostiles, which rarely happens.

Hope to hear from you soon.

Greetings,

Please be notified that I have granted access to CoF and it's representatives for this communication channel.

To the BAF: I feel it is only fair that I admit I broke a law and pay the fine - however, this I blame partially on the commanding officer of the vessel HMS-Mosquito, as he ensured me that his escort was legal.

To representatives of CoF: The commanding officers of vessels from OSI and IRG informed me that they would prefer that I left the vicinity of Freeport 1, I did not comply, as I was sure the BAF knows of my presence in Omega-3 as I explicitly said that is where I am and that they would surely notify me that I was to leave the system ASAP if they had a problem with that. For the time being, I'm going to stay at Freeport 1, as I'm packing up to move to Crayter space, for which I have valid clearance for.

Now to everyone: Saying that, I'd still like to know If I could get clearance to Omega-3 and possibly Cortez, Magellan, Manchester and New London, even if only temporary. Now I know this sounds like a lot, passing through the capitol of Bretonia, but I'm willing to pass through the system with all my weapons, save for the countermeasure launcher unmounted. As I stated before; my intentions are to protect the bases and ships in the vicinity of the NFZ. I cannot sufficiently do this if I don't have the shortest access route between Crayter space and Omega-3.

Take note that if one party denies access then there is no need for the other to grant access, as I need both parties to grant access for this to work.
