Gentlemen, Ladies, other species,

My patience is running out, my security staff has yet again had to temporarily arrest several of your pilots and keep them at Freeport 5 for several hours. You know the drill. I don't care that you come by to trade HOWEVER I am not happy with the fact that you raid my neighbours and then come hiding behind my doors!

Continuing acts like this will not go well with my security staff and they seem eager to defend the base perimeter more and more.

If I continue to get reports like these I might have to close my doors for your groups. Think wise and act fast people. This no-fire zone is NOT for those who act violent, it is for peacefull human beings, I might very well end the no-fire zone regulations and let you just kill each-other.

Included you can find several pictures that my security hackers where able to steal from the ships in the area.

Start talking or get the hell from my lawn

Well, that's quite funny as I was about to contact you over my pilots being hassled not only near Freeport 5 but also on it. What exactly are you accusing us of? Defending ourselves from bloodthirsty Corsair barbarians who disrespect any and all laws, regardless who they are set by? - Until of course it benefits them I suppose.

These Corsair apologists are trying to use your no fire zone framework to force you Zoners to pick their side in the great war against them. They are telling you to pick a side, and you are clearly doing what they say by acting like their own personal defence force. At this point I wonder where Herr Pirx has gone to and who is this new person that has replaced him that doesn't even have the courtesy to introduce himself properly over uncoded communications, as he was clearly able to defend himself against such silly machinations without forcing the occupants of Freeport 5 to become the newest addition to the Corsair empire. Or at least making it look this way to the parties addressed.

But if you yourself, Herr "Dali", are fine with siding with the Corsair dogs, then state it here and now: Freeport 5 is now under Corsair control. We'll know clearly then that that Freeport is as of right now a Corsair outpost, and we will therefore act accordingly.

You have two choices: either pick a side, or remain neutral in this war. No Hessian forces ever launched an attack from Freeport 5, but if you Zoners are going to bother us on the behalf of the Corsairs, when Hessians land on Freeport 5 when attacked by the Corsair dogs within the no fire zone, then expect something back in kind. But also remember this: it was not the Hessians who continuously threaten Zoner bases without a reason, and attack Freeport 9 whenever the situation presents itself, so be careful which side you do pick.

Hopefully someone who is more versed in Zoner politics can continue this correspondence, before the future of Freeport 5 will be put at stake of becoming a disputed ground.

Regards,
Hoerst

Major Hoerst,

Freeport 5 is a Neutral base, in a hostile zone and I do not want ANY violence to take place on it or in its immediate surroundings. You say the Corsairs abuse the no fire zone but it looks more like you are forcing them to break it.

You do not base your forces from my base no, but some of your forces have fled to my base after striking Corsairs. I am not picking sides, neither the corsairs, the hessians or anyone else is allowed to base forces to strike my direct neighbours. And yes, you are a direct neighbour.

What happens at Freeport 9 has had foolish administrators in the past. I am not making the same mistake.

It is clear, feel free to come and trade on freeport 5 but don't come and hide here after you get into a fight. The same goes for anyone else!

Mr Pirx was a businessman, he still is and he's not around as you see. He left me in charge. The recent abuse of the no fire zone has increased dramatically, forcing me to act.

I take you as a wellthinking man. Don't be stupid, make sure the door stays open for you but don't abuse my base's hospitality

This is Gator here, I'm speaking on behalf of the Renegades. I'd like to rest assured that we will not be using your base as any kind of staging point for attacks on anyone or group of persons.

I would like to inquire however if the occasional drop in for a drink would be permissible? We would of course be sure not to head to your base directly after an engagement of any kind, or during a tussle with the many dangers of space, as the safety of your base and people are paramount to the Renegades.

I hope that clears any questions up, and I will re-iterate the Renegade policy to all its corresponding members so that we are all on the same page. smiles

Oh... And Rorry sends his regards.

The hospitality is hardly being abused. Being attacked by Corsairs within the no fire zone, we should be the ones making the first complaint. But as you can see, we respect the neutrality of the Freeport 5 Zoners in this conflict and realise that there is little the Zoners can do to the ragtag barbarian horde that is the Corsair nation, should they wish to penalise them for their indiscretions. Following this, if Freeport 5 wishes to remain neutral, it should continue its policy of not conceding to either party when their demands would harm their direct enemies who also use the freeport. That is the exact definition of not taking a side.

I am a well thinking man, but I can also tell pretty well when I am being had. Neither myself nor my superiors will abide by Hessian pilots being treated as inferior to the Corsairs, being blocked access to your base on account of the Corsairs' wild and completely untrue accusations. So once again, ask yourself: what exactly is happening? Because it appears to me that the Corsairs are attempting to extend their zone of influence yet again, as during the Freeport 9 crisis. Therefore I am hoping to be assured that Freeport 5 does not intend to give in to what amounts to Corsair sabre rattling in such a simple manner.

Should the Freeport 5 Zoners require so, the Red Hessian Army is ready to defend your sovereignty from these ridiculous pirates at a moments notice. We are neighbours after all, and neighbours help each other. Keep that in mind.

Hoerst

Senor Gator,

You are more then welcome to drop by for a drink, ofcourse the no guns on board of my base rule applies. You can even shop at our duty free shops or enjoy any of the other "commodoties" by base offers.

As long as your not being shot at or going to shoot at after leaving my base. Feel free to drop by. Everyone is welcome, except the nomads ofcourse.

Ciao for now,
Dalilama

Major Hoerst,

Nothing is happening to Freeport 5. It is a neutral base and it will stay that way. We prefer profits over anything, Mr pirx has built and I am continuing his work to my best ability. Neutrality is key for our activities, we are THE market place of the region supplying everyone!

The corsairs have so far not started hostilities in my no fire zone so far. I have only seen proof of hostile actions moving into my zone. If you have proof that they have initiated hostile action whilst you where already in my no fire zone and with no prior hostility. Feel free to share and I will act appropriately!

My security forces are strong enough to handle most threats mein herr. But thank you for the offer.

Regards,
Dalilama

[color=#FFCC33]Mein Herr!

Diese photoz doezn't show ze truth, ze whole truth, and nozing but ze truth, zo help you God!

Ze photo in qweztion, where ze 51st Fighter Squad iz prezent, waz taken at ze Gamma jumphole. We were on a mission in Gamma, when ze Corsairz attacked uz for no reazon. We fought brafely, but zey kept bringing in reinforzementz. Zey had zeferal battleshipz, cruizerz, gunboatz and fighterz zere. Being zo heavily outnumbered, we dezided to make our getaway to Freeport 5. We apologize for ze inconvenienze, but we didn't hafe much choize.

Zis iz not much different from when Zoner ships dock at a Rheinland baze in order to take cofer from piratez, correct? I zerefore hope zat zis will not lead to any complicationz between Zoners and Rheinland. We rezpect ze NFZ, and we only vizit ze Freeportz to stock up on zuppliez, zince it'z a long voyage from Rheinland. It iz in our interezt zat we maintain a good relazionship with ze Freeportz around uz, zo maybe we could come to zome zort of underztanding?

Herr von Armin,

I think we can come to an arrangement, your comparison to a zoner trader is similar yes, however the trader is in house space. I am in a system where I have Hessians on one side and Corsairs on the other. They don't really like eachother as you might have been able to tell.

Lets hope acts like this will not be necessary in the future. They harm my neutrality and credibility in the area... something we hold dearly. I suggest you make sure you don't venture to far into corsair territory, they hate tresspassers. We are not that close to the Rheinland Border and everything around you can get hostile quite fast as I have experienced myself on may occasions.
