Good day,

Corsairs,

This is the new Forcemaster of the Core Force! speaking.

It has come to my attention, that your organisation has been growing in strength for a while, and is showing to be a bit of a nuisance within the Omicrons.
The Core has always had a reputation for vanquishing hostile organisations who, wander into our backyard so to speak. Our reputation is very widespread and extremely important to the safety of our influencial zones.

The power of the Core is legendary and is also communicated, when needed to relevant organisations who oppose us. I am sure that you would not want to oppose us in any way, but may I just shoot a small warning your way.
The Core Force! is back in a big way, and we will stay out of your way if you stay out of our way, so to speak. Stepping out of line or terrorising our allies will force us to intervene and bring down the full power of the Core onto your organisation.

By now I suppose as you read this there may be steam coming out from every orifice of your body, well thats perfectly normal to happen when an organisation with a reputation is contacting you in this way.

Core patrols will be increased in sectors that we control, and any Deterrance vessel who does not cooperate will be disabled with no remorse, which I am sure you are also going to inform us exactly the same thing in return. As long as we stay out of each others way, everything will be fine, but as I have explained, you step on our toes and we wil come down with a large hammer strike.

Good day to you,

Forcemaster Signing off.
