[26.12.2022 11:30:42] LH~Goldfinger: Fascinating.
[26.12.2022 11:30:57] [GN]SB-Fantome: Aurevoir
[26.12.2022 11:31:49] LH~Goldfinger: And here I am merely mildly curious.
[26.12.2022 11:32:18] [GN]SB-Fantome: Nothing to be curious about! Just looking around, minding my own business here
[26.12.2022 11:32:35] LH~Goldfinger: That sounds awfully wrong.
[26.12.2022 11:32:48] LH~Goldfinger: I have a proposal.
[26.12.2022 11:32:55] [GN]SB-Fantome: You better stop interfering in my business!
[26.12.2022 11:33:06] LH~Goldfinger: Let us discuss your "looking around", shall we?
[26.12.2022 11:34:11] [GN]SB-Fantome: Yes, a Military Intelligence keen on discussing things openly. Sure *rolls eyes*. I will pass
[26.12.2022 11:35:34] LH~Goldfinger: How unfortunate. It could have been beneficial for us both, you know.
[26.12.2022 11:36:21] [GN]SB-Fantome: You seem to be trying to slow down my mission - you should reconsider.
[26.12.2022 11:36:55] [GN]SB-Fantome: Now, what happened here
[26.12.2022 11:37:09] LH~Goldfinger: Ah. Interested in data, are we?
[26.12.2022 11:37:20] LH~Goldfinger: I told you it could be beneficial for us both.
[26.12.2022 11:37:23] [GN]SB-Fantome: Well, umm...yes
[26.12.2022 11:37:47] [GN]SB-Fantome: Why is this system all beaten up
[26.12.2022 11:37:48] LH~Goldfinger: I can provide an explanation. It'll cost you an answer in return.
[26.12.2022 11:38:02] [GN]SB-Fantome: Ah Merde, ok, go ahead
[26.12.2022 11:38:53] LH~Goldfinger: This here is a standard intelligence gathering mission, obviously. Let me guess, you're estimating how and in what -
[26.12.2022 11:39:12] LH~Goldfinger: capabilities Liberty would be able to assist any renewed war efforts?
[26.12.2022 11:39:30] [GN]SB-Fantome: *scratches head* well, umm...yes, how do you know so much
[26.12.2022 11:39:50] LH~Goldfinger: Why else would a Gallic military vessel bother with such a long journey?
[26.12.2022 11:40:26] [GN]SB-Fantome: Well, you got me...we want to know if they can interfere in the Tau Regions if push comes to shove.
[26.12.2022 11:40:43] [GN]SB-Fantome: Seems like they lost a battle here of some sort
[26.12.2022 11:40:59] LH~Goldfinger: You surely prepared well enough to be aware of their campaign against the Insurgency, albeit I doubt you have any -
[26.12.2022 11:41:04] LH~Goldfinger: real details on this topic.
[26.12.2022 11:41:30] [GN]SB-Fantome: All we know is from the thousands of Insurgents that fled to Quillan
[26.12.2022 11:41:47] [GN]SB-Fantome: I said too much already
[26.12.2022 11:41:51] LH~Goldfinger: Hmh. Right. I did promise an explanation for Ontario.
[26.12.2022 11:42:12] LH~Goldfinger: I'm truth to my word. They've abandoned it over the oldest reason there is, profit margin.
[26.12.2022 11:42:37] [GN]SB-Fantome: Profit Margin? This system wasn't...profitable?
[26.12.2022 11:43:05] [GN]SB-Fantome: The Tradelanes seem to be in ruin
[26.12.2022 11:43:12] LH~Goldfinger: The Platinum mined here couldn't outweigh the constant interferences caused by us.. and also the Xenos movement.
[26.12.2022 11:43:22] [GN]SB-Fantome: Will Liberty not try to focus on the system ?
[26.12.2022 11:43:27] LH~Goldfinger: Scuttled by the Navy.
[26.12.2022 11:43:43] [GN]SB-Fantome: They scuttled their own tradelanes? How Gallic of them
[26.12.2022 11:43:43] LH~Goldfinger: They abandoned it in the most resource wasting way possible.
[26.12.2022 11:44:18] [GN]SB-Fantome: So what you are saying - they won't be preocuppied with this system ?
[26.12.2022 11:44:38] LH~Goldfinger: You've figured it out yourself.
[26.12.2022 11:44:50] [GN]SB-Fantome: That is not great news.
[26.12.2022 11:45:08] [GN]SB-Fantome: If you are a reliable source that is - beggars can't be choosers I suppose!
[26.12.2022 11:45:19] [GN]SB-Fantome: Well what do you want in return for that information
[26.12.2022 11:45:19] LH~Goldfinger: Perhaps it's a sign that they're aware of the strains put on their forces by all issues cumulated together?
[26.12.2022 11:45:35] LH~Goldfinger: Oh, I assume you're not only operating in Liberty.
[26.12.2022 11:45:53] [GN]SB-Fantome: Hard to tell, last thing we want is their warships appearing side by side with the Brets in the Taus again
[26.12.2022 11:46:09] [GN]SB-Fantome: You think they are capable of that?
[26.12.2022 11:46:28] LH~Goldfinger: I've already got plenty from you, for now. And this data would cost you, Gallic.
[26.12.2022 11:46:53] LH~Goldfinger: Truth be told, a detailed evaluation of their intervention capabilities is doable.
[26.12.2022 11:47:05] LH~Goldfinger: We have our sources and means.
[26.12.2022 11:47:07] [GN]SB-Fantome: And what would THAT cost us
[26.12.2022 11:47:27] LH~Goldfinger: What do you think the Gallic Union's military could even offer us?
[26.12.2022 11:47:36] LH~Goldfinger: I think that's a core issue we face here.
[26.12.2022 11:48:01] [GN]SB-Fantome: We can't just give technology to Sirian hands, you will understand that
[26.12.2022 11:48:17] LH~Goldfinger: Naturally. And I will not act on my own as well.
[26.12.2022 11:48:28] [GN]SB-Fantome: The Security Bureau has a solid budget however.
[26.12.2022 11:48:34] LH~Goldfinger: Tell you what, Gallic. Give me a frequency to reach you at.
[26.12.2022 11:49:00] [GN]SB-Fantome: Simply contact the [GN] Security Bureau on an encrypted frequency
[26.12.2022 11:49:10] LH~Goldfinger: I'll have to discuss this idea with the Professorship. Perhaps we can reach an agreement then, a more.. hm.. formal one.
[26.12.2022 11:49:12] [GN]SB-Fantome: We can work something out
[26.12.2022 11:49:46] LH~Goldfinger: I'd advice you to leave through the Barrier Passage. Crayter forces aren't the most competent in patrolling the nebula.
[26.12.2022 11:49:54] LH~Goldfinger: Just as a little tip.
[26.12.2022 11:50:29] [GN]SB-Fantome: Good tip Sirian. Contact the Bureau, Intelligence is what we are gathering, if you provide it, you will be rewarded
[26.12.2022 11:50:36] LH~Goldfinger: Mmh.
[26.12.2022 11:50:38] [GN]SB-Fantome: Aurevoir!
[26.12.2022 11:50:47] LH~Goldfinger: I guess, to you as well.
This is all for the moment.
