The usual life of a freelancer and within the Omicrons, weird encounters can remind you that the Omicrons aren't safe.
I also looked at the bounty board of yours. As you say, it is a short list but I think I will get into it when there will be more... choices or if you set a general bounty on corsairs, then I will probably look for that.

Guten tag Jack,
I bring you some... news. To begin, a Core warship entered in Rheinland. The captain of it seemed to not be aware that he can't be in Rheinland. There was two military who fined the captain and he couldn't pay the fee completely.
In the future days, you will probably have a notice from the military because of this transgression. Below, you will see the image taken and the recording.
Believe me, I wanted to back The Core on this but I couldn't because of my status of Freelancer...

[13.02.2023 01:29:34] Lea.Kaufman: I can say openly.

[13.02.2023 01:30:20] Lea.Kaufman: I have a contact within the Core.
[13.02.2023 01:30:43] Lea.Kaufman: And what I just saw, it is certainly not from them.
[13.02.2023 01:31:09] [RM]Obl-Trau.Habermeyer: But ... it ... was their vessel? And it checked out as their signature and IFF?
[13.02.2023 01:31:14] [RM]Obl-Trau.Habermeyer: Do they have renegades?
[13.02.2023 01:32:04] Lea.Kaufman: I don't know. I'm willing to contact the guy in question about this ship.
[13.02.2023 01:32:21] [RM]Fl-Frieda.Voigt.: Well we still need to waiver the fine.
[13.02.2023 01:32:53] [RM]Obl-Trau.Habermeyer: I'd appreciate if you would reach out and inquire, but i do have to make up a report of this and then diplomatic channels will
[13.02.2023 01:32:55] [RM]Obl-Trau.Habermeyer: reach out
[13.02.2023 01:33:23] Forgan_Meeman: greetings pilots
[13.02.2023 01:33:28] [RM]Fl-Frieda.Voigt.: Hallo.

[13.02.2023 01:34:09] [RM]Obl-Trau.Habermeyer: And having a more complete picture would certainly be welcomed.
[13.02.2023 01:34:50] Lea.Kaufman: Say, how much of the fine is remaining?
[13.02.2023 01:35:24] [RM]Obl-Trau.Habermeyer: Ah, one moment... let me check the transfer logs...
[13.02.2023 01:36:12] [RM]Obl-Trau.Habermeyer: Exactly 12.664.643 SC are still remaining. Why?
[13.02.2023 01:36:23] [RM]Fl-Frieda.Voigt.: You know maths?
[13.02.2023 01:36:49] [RM]Obl-Trau.Habermeyer: Mhm?

[13.02.2023 01:37:55] [RM]Obl-Trau.Habermeyer: You? *Traudel frowns* ... this is intended as a punishment for the trespassing vessel in question or their organization.
[13.02.2023 01:38:17] [RM]Obl-Trau.Habermeyer: I suppose... technically... you could tell your contact you'd be willing to cover for that. I still am bound to let it go

[13.02.2023 01:39:02] Death: Hou_Chi was put out of action by a hostile vessel.
[13.02.2023 01:39:27] Lea.Kaufman: Ja, me. You see, I have some agreement with the Core.
[13.02.2023 01:39:44] [RM]Fl-Frieda.Voigt.: What kind of agreement, if I may ask?
[13.02.2023 01:40:01] Lea.Kaufman: Mutual agreements.
[13.02.2023 01:40:25] Lea.Kaufman: But the reason is I don't want them to be bad seen because of this vessel.
[13.02.2023 01:41:41] [RM]Obl-Trau.Habermeyer: Understandable. Yet nothing i can really influence. This could be, if one would be so inclined, viewed as a bribe in the widest
[13.02.2023 01:41:44] [RM]Obl-Trau.Habermeyer: sense of the word...
[13.02.2023 01:41:57] [RM]Obl-Trau.Habermeyer: Not that i suspect you of that, but it might appear very weird on my record should any of that get out.
[13.02.2023 01:42:30] Lea.Kaufman: I can only promise that will stay between us.
[13.02.2023 01:42:43] Lea.Kaufman: Also to the contact I have.
[13.02.2023 01:42:51] Lea.Kaufman: Since it is the guildmaster...
[13.02.2023 01:43:07] [RM]Obl-Trau.Habermeyer: Unfortunately the Core has done or at least facilitated actions that did not sit well with Rheinland. Hired thugs that ignore
[13.02.2023 01:43:13] [RM]Obl-Trau.Habermeyer: House law do not paint a good picture, do they?
[13.02.2023 01:43:24] [RM]Obl-Trau.Habermeyer: Their warships over in Sigma-15 were... one thing.
[13.02.2023 01:43:35] [RM]Obl-Trau.Habermeyer: The Guildmaster himself? Consider me impressed.
[13.02.2023 01:43:46] Lea.Kaufman: Ja, himself.
[13.02.2023 01:44:22] [RM]Fl-Frieda.Voigt.: Wait-wait wait. Hired thugs?
[13.02.2023 01:44:27] [RM]Fl-Frieda.Voigt.: Did that happen?
[13.02.2023 01:45:06] [RM]Obl-Trau.Habermeyer: I suppose congratulations. My points still stand though. As unfortunate as it may be.
[13.02.2023 01:45:26] Lea.Kaufman: ... damn...
[13.02.2023 01:45:28] [RM]Obl-Trau.Habermeyer: Oh, ja. We had a couple of 'Bounty Hunters' going wild in front of New Berlin.
[13.02.2023 01:45:55] [RM]Obl-Trau.Habermeyer: Assaulting Auxo forces. Upon my orders to stand down they unfortunately refused. Claiming they had a contract.
[13.02.2023 01:46:01] [RM]Fl-Frieda.Voigt.: Could you excuse me for a moment? I'll be very quick, I forgot something urgent!
[13.02.2023 01:46:08] [RM]Obl-Trau.Habermeyer: Certainly.
[13.02.2023 01:46:26] Lea.Kaufman: Auxo... ja...
[13.02.2023 01:46:41] [RM]Obl-Trau.Habermeyer: I am most aware there is bad blood between both them and Core.
[13.02.2023 01:47:01] [RM]Obl-Trau.Habermeyer: Yet none of that warrants assaults in another House, putting themselves above House law.
[13.02.2023 01:48:25] Lea.Kaufman: What is between the Core and Auxo is not my thing. I just wanted to cover them from the fee but it sounds a failure.
[13.02.2023 01:49:17] [RM]Obl-Trau.Habermeyer: I get the idea behind it and motivation. I really do. But i couldn't accept that, as you, right now, still count as a

This is rather strange. The captain must've missed a giant memo. Not only we shouldn't move capitals into Rheinland, but we also, purely from a diplomatic point of view, wouldn't. This could've been considered an act of aggression. It's a miracle he got off easy with just that fine. If I see that captain, I'll do my best to explain the situation, in a way he would understand me.
Thank you for bringing this information to me, Lea. I do appreciate it. Next time we meet in person, do remind me I owe you a special bonus.

Hey Jack,
We didn't share words since we were on that battleship three months ago. I hope for you the battleship is not to much damaged for whatever you intend to do with it.
Anyway, what I want to ask is.. Is it possible that the engineers of the Core can bring some modification to my ship, an Odin MK I ? It is an old ship but I am sure we can make it shine if you see what I mean. To be honest, I had the intention to replace my actual loadout for something more powerful.
Contact me whenever you can.

Indeed, we did not communicate for a while. I was in a rather grave condition, but as luck would have it, I made it.
You also share the blame for my survival, of course. I doubt I'd be sucking air right now if it wasn't for your intervention.
As for your request, we can look into it and see what we can do. Although that ship is not of our design, my engineers could and would work on it. There are plenty of parts on the black market, so I'm confident we'll be able to help you.
What is it that you require?

What I require is quite simple.
To begin, I'd like new weapons on it. I do not know what the Core has as weaponry so it makes a bit hard to make a precise decision. However the picture I can give is that I wish a type of weapon that can do significant damage but with a projectile rate not too low.
Then, what I will probably require is a better weaponry system after if it is necessary.

We've a wide variety of shooters to choose from. I'm sure we can find the perfect set for you. Furthermore, we can easily update the targeting software and all peripherals that we deem inferior. It should be an easy job, I'm sure.
Here's my proposal. Come to Durban station and I'll arrange a demostration of the weaponry for you. It should help you make an educated decision on the matter.

Hello Jack,
I just want to say the engineers of The Core made an amazing job on my Odin. The weapons we talked about are significantly better than what I had. The only thing that I'd need would be a paint job to match with your ship!
Joke aside, I'll be around Liberty. If you need me, hit me up.
