Howdy. This's Frank "Pistol Pete" Eaton of the Cowboys. We ain't done much, me being one of those who's done the least in the group. It'll probably be disbanded soon, and I can go back to a more normal life.
So I took my bird out for one last flight, and found an Outcast Falcata in Magellan. Now this ain't nothin' special, but isn't it fortunate for me that he led me directly to two now discovered stations? They were obviously unlawful, seein' as they were hidden pretty well, but they didn't start shooting at me. Musta not known I was a lawful freelancer or something, but that'll be sorted if I ever take my bird out again.
Here's myself talking to the Outcast about leading me to a possible hidden base while running away from me
There's a station and some weapon platforms on the brink of my sensor range. We'd passed within four klicks but I hadn't thought to take a picture at that time
Here's jumping to Cortez (using the jump hole he showed me) to within several klicks of another unlawful station
Here's a closer view of the station
Here's the Outcast circling the station in a desperate attempt to shake me loose
Now, I could go on and on about how I could tell every man and his cattle where your bases are. The corporations would love to know, I'm sure, and I'd be inclined to tell them. However, instead of doing that, I want to offer you a deal.
That Outcast called me pathetic as he ran away toward your stations. That got to me. So, bar him from your stations and I'll keep their locations a secret. I'm retirin' either way, but it'd just be nice to know I made him suffer a bit more than he needed to.
If anything I bet the Outcast steals your business, so really this is just an excuse for you to remove yourselves of another problem. Have a nice day now, you can imagine me tipping my hat in a polite manner.
