***INCOMING TRANSMISSION***
**ID:DUNCAN MORELAND - BOWEX)WOLFE**
**LOCATION:SCARBOROUGH STATION**
**SUBJECT:HMS-MACDUFF RESUPPLYING**


Duncan Moreland here, representing BorderWorlds Exports, I understand that your time mustn't be wasted so I will be straight to the point. Due to the unfortunate situation the MacDuff and it's crew members are in what with the war with Kusari cutting off major supply convoys to Tau-31, it's quartermaster has contacted the best shipping firm in Sirius to assist in getting necessary supplies to the MacDuff, and we have no problems with assisting her majesty's forces. However, the MacDuff is requesting 2 replacement standard Bretonian battleship turrets, and 1 Bretonian Battle Razor turret. We would like to set up a date in which we could pick up said weaponry to assist in re-arming the HMS MacDuff. Now we are willing to send some form of payment for licensing to carry said weaponry to the MacDuff, however, since they are only going to be used in the Bretonian War Effort, I would hope that payment would be unnecessary. Send a response back to this channel and either myself or another BowEx representative will be more than happy to deal with you instantly.

The Battleship turrets in question will be supplied by Military convoy, you can understand that the Armed Forces is not fond of the idea of some of its more advanced military technology being shipped in anything but a heavily guarded convoy.

Thank you for responding, but the BAF will handle this internally.

From: Andrew Peterson, Bowex.
RE: What?
With all due respect Sir Jack, you'll have a better chance of getting those turrets there with Bowex. We have a far better historical track record for being inconspicuous as well as not getting our own ships destroyed. Not to mention the fact that the Tau 31 Quartermaster specifically made a contract with us for the turrets. If they had felt Convoy was better suited to the task, she would have contacted them herself.

I thank you to know that Bowex has been Bretonia's most secure shipping concern since 66 AS, and will continue to be into the far and distant future. We actually have an entire wing tailored specifically to this sort of high risk job. I frankly find it incredulous that Bowex can be trusted to move royalty via Royal Liner, govern Port Jackson and near enough single handedly feed Bretonia's war industry - but apparently cannot be trusted with some three consignments of hardware.

Don't make my pull out my Royal Charter, sir. It does say 'sole rights to supply the BAF and BPA'. Yes, that does supersede the rights of your own internal wing, was issued by parliament and counter-signed by Her Majesty. It's written, traditional and legal.
Bemused.

Military Convoy, not Convoy the trading alliance.

Cotton wool in your ears today old boy? Of course there will be Bowex ships shipping it, I am stating that the BAF need to escort your ships.

Tsk tsk tsk you're getting old, my friend, it addles the wits a little. Either that or the pretty little secretary of yours was too busy day dreaming about me to take a message correctly.
