Bonjour,colonials
This is Adeline Verne,capitain of the Trade&Exploration Wing of SMP
Because we signed that contract our ships will patrol fregvently the Tau space and guard it,but unfortunately our ships run with oil.Sirians have no oil so we will bring it from Gallia.I'll set few transports right away to Minato and Sulawesi.Merci!
Did you received the first transmission,colonials?
I need to know if you are aware of us.Our transports will enter '44 and I hope this won't bother you.
I've alerted my superiors to the matter and will explain to all Colonials I meet that the SMP are to be considered allies, not tresspassers.
Until you're given assurances from someone higher-up than me, slight confusion over the issue may remain; in the event of a Colonial refusing to grant you entry to 44, direct them to the appropriate channels such as this one so they can become properly informed. In the worst case, you'll have to wait a few minutes while they check with a superior.
Please have your transports contact any available Colonial forces as early in their runs as possible, so we can remain aware of your estimated arrival time, and your general position if you need assistance.

This is Flight Captain Broden of the Colonial Quorum.
While we welcome SMP assistance in Taus in struggle against outcasts as have been proven lately, please be aware that roaming around freely in Tau-44 system is not allowed.
Please direct all supplies you wish to bring to the system to Minato Harbor, from where it will be redistributed by our short range transport ships. Also whenever possible, have a Colonial pilot accompany you to make sure.

*Opening Message*
Just to confirm the messages of our other people here, your vessels will not be destroyed by ours. As long as you direct all of your supplies to the Minato Harbour ONLY, this is the free port of the tau 44 system. All other bases in this sector are Fleet strongholds.
I will address the pilots of the 44th Battlegroup later to assure that they will not accidentally fire upon you. It would also be wise if Colonials are in the area to contact them before you reach tau 44 to arrange an escort to Minato Harbour.
