Sub: Attacks on escape pods
It has come to my attention that some of your men attempted to pirate one of our lifeboats. An escape pod. How sad to see a pilot in dire need of assistance being harassed by supposed alligent forces, right outside what should be a friendly port of call!
An escape pod. The mere thought of attacking one is sickening, as well as being an act of war. We do NOT tolerate having our lifeboats attacked like that, or any other ship for that matter.
If I hear a report about one more attack, I will personally put in a request to Overwatch for official pacifying action. This is your -only- warning.

I've heard of no attacks on CS in the least, this if the first I have heard of it. You need not threaten a friend because of one misguided person or one who has made a mistake unknowingly.
I have reviewed the logs of the vessel involved with this altercation and I think you have your facts wrong. Your distress call was answered by one of our nearby gunships that gave your escape pod a quantity of H-Fuel. After this the escape pod began firing missiles at our gunship and then fled the scene. It was followed to try to make sense of what had happened after which the pursuit was broken off.
The Consortum has not even come into direct contact with me from any encounter I have ever recalled, so supposedly allied forces is a unfounded term for our relationship.
Furthermore, if you would like our aid in the future, it might be best to contact us officially to discuss a relationship between our two organizations. To this day I have seen Consortum vessels aid in attacks against Outcast enemies and even fly through our space. This alone however does not make you my ally, neither does claiming me as your ally make you my ally. The last time I checked we have no allies nor any groups interested in being our allies. We stand alone thus far, however we do have friends. Please abstain from making such comments in the future unless you actually make the attempt and are accepted as such by our organization.
Once more unto the Might Outcast Nation! For Piracy! For The Orange Dream! For Outcasts Everywhere!

**OORP: For the record, your escape pod was seen with starter gear. Discovery Rules and other starter commodities in his hold and it was commented that he should get rid of it. He was never pirated by our vessels. I'm going to assume that this player was a nub and I am going to leave it as in-experience on his part for making this complaint.**

an extremely cold, mechanistic, and clearly displeased voice speaks
"It stands that we have received reports of hostile behavior from 'your' organization, an entity which is an unknown quantity loosely attached to the Outcast structure.
Unknown quantities attached to the Outcast structure will be treated as threats unless the Government our our Benefactors in Kusari protest to the contrary. Attacking or perceived intent to damage our operations, in any way shape or form, will result in reprisal, irrelevant to whom ever conducts said operations.
That said... your attempt at 'diplomacy' will be taken into account. But we are not appeased by pretty words. If you seek to repair damaged relations... and prevent our hunter teams from actively seeking and destroying ESS vessels, you will do something for -us-
Firstly, the vessels which participated in the attacks on Airwatch assets and their crews are to be turned over to us for recycling. Secondly, you will be requested to gather for us militarily valuable supplies to support our war effort and replace any damaged units.
Thirdly, you will be demanded to inform any pilots under your jurisdiction that their actions will reflect on your entire organization, if it has no control over it's constituents. If this happens again, you will be forced to pay yet more resource tariffs or face prosecution at the hands of our war machines.
Are we clear?"

In the best interests of diplomacy I will send a transport vessel with a load of supplies for your intake. I will however not be handing over any of my people. Our lives are not for bargaining of any type. I would hope that after this we could be friends after this misunderstanding. I will say it again, no attempt to attack your little escape pod was made, nor was it pirated. The convoy will make it to you by the end of the night.
