ERIK SLOAN, ABF

Mr Mendes.

Please inform your members that ABF facilities on Gran Canaria are off limits for the 24 hours starting 10:00 SMT today. The official version for the public is "overheating of recently-installed powercores that happened to be the same faulty series." We don't want panic among the population during our operation to resolve something on our own.

Like we settled on yesterday, operation is to remove Duma Lexington from charge of ABF, as well as demilitarization of organization and return to its status quo.

Mr. Erik Sloan

As stated in the ship logs that follows

Code:
[09.12.2018 22:57:24] ABF|Swahili: Erik: Mr Menders. Gents.
[09.12.2018 22:58:08] OSI-Mendes: Captain
[09.12.2018 22:58:15] Due.Diligence: Ahoy there.
[09.12.2018 22:58:20] OSI-Nautilus: Isaac: Ahoy
[09.12.2018 22:58:25] ABF|Swahili: Erik: Good day.
[09.12.2018 22:59:44] ABF|Swahili: Erik: Permision to dock Nichols.
[09.12.2018 23:00:15] OSI-Mendes: Mendes: Nichols is open to all
[09.12.2018 23:00:32] OSI-Mendes: Mendes: For the time being
[09.12.2018 23:00:41] ABF|Swahili: Erik: Docking. We need to discuss something.
[09.12.2018 23:02:41] ABF|Swahili: Erik: I came here in order to talk about Mr Duma Lexington. Not as his representative.
[09.12.2018 23:02:55] OSI-Nautilus: Isaac: I'm going to go pick up the Zarratina, be back shortly
[09.12.2018 23:03:45] OSI-Mendes: Mendes: what about it ?
[09.12.2018 23:04:01] ABF|Swahili: Erik: He needs to be removed.
[09.12.2018 23:04:58] OSI-Mendes: Mendes: I see, but what i don't see is what does OSI have to do with it ?
[09.12.2018 23:05:21] ABF|Swahili: Erik: Gran Canaria belongs to you. You are the only ones in technical control over the system.
[09.12.2018 23:05:55] OSI-Mendes: Mendes: For the time being yes
[09.12.2018 23:06:41] ABF|Swahili: Erik: ABF was created to become a political movement. Duma tries to turn it into pseudo-military.
[09.12.2018 23:06:53] ABF|Swahili: Erik: Not everyone like it.
[09.12.2018 23:07:45] OSI-Mendes: Mendes: Well Captain, with all due respect that's a problem of yours to resolve
[09.12.2018 23:07:55] ABF|Swahili: Erik: We cannot do it alone.
[09.12.2018 23:08:33] OSI-Mendes: Mendes: OSI do not interfere in other groups internal affairs
[09.12.2018 23:08:51] ABF|Swahili: Erik: You've already seen how this guy flopped The Summit.
[09.12.2018 23:09:23] OSI-Cloudskimmer: OSI cannot be involved directly, but there is something you can do
[09.12.2018 23:09:26] OSI-Cloudskimmer: If you wish to make a change
[09.12.2018 23:09:36] OSI-Mendes: Mendes: What i have seen wasn't nothing even close to be taken serious.
[09.12.2018 23:09:40] ABF|Swahili: Erik: Let's hear it.
[09.12.2018 23:09:48] OSI-Cloudskimmer: Mendes, may i?
[09.12.2018 23:09:58] OSI-Mendes: Mendes: Certainly
[09.12.2018 23:10:03] OSI-Cloudskimmer: Alright
[09.12.2018 23:10:17] OSI-Cloudskimmer: Your leader likes to talk, he talks alot, and gives it the biggen
[09.12.2018 23:10:22] OSI-Cloudskimmer: All we have heard is from hin
[09.12.2018 23:10:40] OSI-Cloudskimmer: What we need from you, is a communication from other ABF members with a statement of no confidence
[09.12.2018 23:11:36] ABF|Swahili: Erik: Duma preys on fear of people that are scared of BAF involvement inside Omega-49.
[09.12.2018 23:11:59] OSI-Cloudskimmer: He overestimates just how much of that rings true
[09.12.2018 23:12:11] OSI-Cloudskimmer: He seems to either be ignorant or forget that this isnt the first time
[09.12.2018 23:12:30] OSI-Cloudskimmer: The People of Gran Canaria are much stronger then he gives them credit for
[09.12.2018 23:12:30] ABF|Swahili: Erik: The fear remains, sadly.
[09.12.2018 23:12:38] OSI-Cloudskimmer: Anyway
[09.12.2018 23:12:46] OSI-Cloudskimmer: The point is, if you think he needs to be removed
[09.12.2018 23:12:59] OSI-Cloudskimmer: You and any others who have joined you must voice this
[09.12.2018 23:13:37] ABF|Swahili: Erik: You seem to underestimate Mr Lexington then.
[09.12.2018 23:14:51] ABF|Swahili: Erik: I do not say he is stupid. Quite the opposite.
[09.12.2018 23:15:16] ABF|Swahili: Erik: But his mind is clouded, and while he has good grasp to pull certain strings... he is unstable.
[09.12.2018 23:15:16] OSI-Cloudskimmer: If your not willing to speak out against him when you have told us he needs removing
[09.12.2018 23:15:25] OSI-Cloudskimmer: Then what more is there to be done from our side
[09.12.2018 23:16:08] ABF|Swahili: Erik: Swahili and its crew may try to do something, but it would need approval of OSI first.
[09.12.2018 23:16:23] OSI-Cloudskimmer: And what is that?
[09.12.2018 23:17:58] ABF|Swahili: Erik: Armed action on surface of Gran Canaria.
[09.12.2018 23:18:13] OSI-Cloudskimmer: Be more specific
[09.12.2018 23:18:34] OSI-Nautilus: Isaac: What are you going to bomb the Bretionan city?
[09.12.2018 23:18:47] ABF|Swahili: Erik: That's what Duma would love to do.
[09.12.2018 23:20:32] ABF|Swahili: Erik: We need help in dissolution or reform of ABF. It went too far from the original - and understood - concept.
[09.12.2018 23:20:44] OSI-Cloudskimmer: yes we get that part
[09.12.2018 23:20:55] OSI-Cloudskimmer: I want to know about this armed action
[09.12.2018 23:21:23] OSI-Cloudskimmer: If you mean you want to take apistol to the back of Dumas head in a shadows. Then do it, moms the word, we wont tell
[09.12.2018 23:21:49] ABF|Swahili: Erik: Rather to arrest him.
[09.12.2018 23:22:05] ABF|Swahili: Erik: And... yes. That's the biggest issue, now you mention it.
[09.12.2018 23:22:35] ABF|Swahili: Erik: We don't want to spread panic if gunshots would happen.
[09.12.2018 23:23:00] ABF|Swahili: Erik: About Gallia, though. We've received a strange payment through our ship.
[09.12.2018 23:23:05] OSI-Cloudskimmer: Payment?
[09.12.2018 23:23:31] ABF|Swahili: Erik: Indeed. While it had no footprint, the message came from... quite interesting place.
[09.12.2018 23:24:01] OSI-Cloudskimmer: What place
[09.12.2018 23:24:14] ABF|Swahili: Erik: Northern Bretonia.
[09.12.2018 23:24:25] ABF|Swahili: Erik: That is, Leeds system.
[09.12.2018 23:24:46] OSI-Zarratina: Isn't leeds now gallic space?
[09.12.2018 23:24:53] OSI-Cloudskimmer: It is
[09.12.2018 23:24:55] ABF|Swahili: Erik: *Nods.*
[09.12.2018 23:25:03] OSI-Cloudskimmer: So your leader took a payment from Gallia
[09.12.2018 23:25:48] ABF|Swahili: Erik: Too early to suggest anything, but I doubt anyone in Resistance would bother about sending so big sum.
[09.12.2018 23:26:03] OSI-Cloudskimmer: Not to those who cant help them anyways
[09.12.2018 23:26:59] ABF|Swahili: Erik: We could always bomb his mansion from the orbit, but he's too valuable to be lost. Despite his actions and madness.
[09.12.2018 23:27:22] OSI-Cloudskimmer: no, nothing so drastic
[09.12.2018 23:27:40] ABF|Swahili: Erik:
[09.12.2018 23:28:03] OSI-Cloudskimmer: If you are close enough to him then im sure you can subdue him without anything over the top
[09.12.2018 23:28:25] ABF|Swahili: Erik: We are afraid of reactions within ABF.
[09.12.2018 23:28:39] ABF|Swahili: Erik: Which is already pretty much unstable.
[09.12.2018 23:28:42] OSI-Cloudskimmer: That is something you will need to deal with
[09.12.2018 23:29:14] OSI-Cloudskimmer: If your this worried something has to be done
[09.12.2018 23:29:21] ABF|Swahili: Erik: Special Operations, is it, then.
[09.12.2018 23:30:23] ABF|Swahili: Erik: Duma way too smart for usual tactics, though. I mean, if he's quite sensitive about Bretonians...
[09.12.2018 23:30:39] ABF|Swahili: Erik: ...pretty much he'll be sensitive about something being wrong.
[09.12.2018 23:30:54] ABF|Swahili: Erik: Freeport 11 strained him up.
[09.12.2018 23:30:58] OSI-Cloudskimmer: Unless he has reason to suspect a coupe within his own organisation
[09.12.2018 23:31:03] OSI-Cloudskimmer: You should be fine
[09.12.2018 23:31:16] ABF|Swahili: Erik: Not sure about it, either.
[09.12.2018 23:31:31] OSI-Cloudskimmer: Well, you need to be sure about it one way or another.
[09.12.2018 23:31:55] OSI-Cloudskimmer: Its not like there isnt plenty of people out in Sirius who would do it for you for the right price but i wouldnt be suggesting
[09.12.2018 23:31:57] OSI-Cloudskimmer: such a thing myself
[09.12.2018 23:32:01] ABF|Swahili: Erik: Some of our people claim to see military equipment, but nothing of usual origin.
[09.12.2018 23:32:16] ABF|Swahili: Erik: Even I don't know what Duma might be up to.
[09.12.2018 23:33:51] OSI-Cloudskimmer: Give me one moment to speak with my collegues

You were warned that for the time being Nichols Trade Center was open to all, including ABF vessels, but that could change at anytime.

After you asked for OSI help on removing ABF leader from his position, as such you were informed that OSI does not interfere in other groups internal affairs, even so you insisted on the matter.

The Captain of the Couldskimmer told you what were the possibilities you could follow and this is as much as OSI can or will do.

The board of Directors after reunited and deliberated that until the issue with your current leadership is resolved and all the Omega-49 calms down, ABF ships will be not allowed to dock on Nichols Trade Center

Mr Mendes.

The operation was successful and Duma Lexington has been apprehended relatively without bloodshed. As for now, Anti-Bretonian Front stands without a singular leader, yet I contact you as a de facto representative.

In the meantime some stuff happened and ABF vessels are now treated as hostile by your installation nearby Gran Canaria due to consequences which followed by decision of OSI. Mind that good portion of ABF ships is non-combat vessels and automated defences may do more harm than good in the end.

In exchange for return into the status quo and normalization of diplomatic relations, we offer demilitarization of ABF - save for typical light escort vessels and armored transports (e.g. Cormorant-class vessels). We also want to throw in something interesting. In the end, Anti-Bretonian Front was supposed to be a political lobby, not any sort of armed "militia".

We are still to decide what to do with Duma Lexington, as a side note.

Sincerely,
Erik Sloan
