My Friends,
It seems we're in a bit of a pickle. Interspace has been trying to regain access to Rheinland space in recent weeks, however ALG is now posing a threat to that. With access to Rheinland markets like we used to have, that would mean an ability to supply you more effectively like we used to without having to deal with the Corsairs in the Omegas. To solve this problem we need your help.
We've been acquiring Stork transports from Rheinland using false papers, and apparently ALG has caught on. We need to create a situation where Hessian ships cripple or destroy the ship that was caught as it makes its way to Aland Shipyard to be inspected by ALG technicians. Hopefully it will be in range of Aland at the time so the ALG technicians can see the hostilities for themselves. We could spin the sympathy in Rheinland to our advantage as well.
Of course your people will be compensated for their time. Whatever credits or supplies you want in return will be delivered to you as soon as possible.

Fraulein Shoemaker,
It's an interesting scenario you've come up with and for sure sparing one ship to restore the Interspace status within Rheinland would sure profit both our groups enough in a long run not to even be worth mentioning. Therefor, RHA is ready to spare the needed number of ships at the given time and date, and we'd suggest buying up some cargo before the run to make it look more like a regular piracy act, as the kanzler's dogs might not buy the story of a direct hostility between RHA and IC considering all the rumors flying around as of late.
Despite the high risk, we can arrange the incident closer to the shipyard to make sure of the destruction of the vessel being recorded by the station scanners, and also that the crew would be picked up fast enough and not risk losing any good men or women in the run.
Let us know the details and we'll arrange something for you.

Major Desner,
We were planning to deliver the Stork in question tomorrow. Perhaps during the most active hours so there will be plenty of witnesses. Do you have a specific time that would work for you? I was thinking about 1800 GMT.

Major Desner,
Excellent work, the Smyrna is in pieces and the battle scars on the Monmouth should be quite convincing as well. The Omegas are a dangerous place. With any luck what ALG or the IMG manages to recover should be too damaged to determine its true origin. This should put things back on track.
