► Subject: Androids available from FuTech
While the Ashanti completed another routine shipment of Magnetic Superconductors together with the Mont Blanc, we were approached by an Ageira Eagle pilot who offered an escort. It turned out to be an Android manufactured by a company called FuTech, which allegedly also fulfills custom requests for automated workers. Can't say if their models are any good, but maybe someone wants to get in contact with them to see if they can be of any use for our running construction projects.
[01.09.2019 19:06:31] =CR=ISE-Ashanti: How much do you ask to escort us back to Coronado?
[01.09.2019 19:07:11] FTI>'Jacob'-A: There is no payment needed but we are always happy about any donation you deem necessary.
[01.09.2019 19:07:33] =CR=ISE-Ashanti: With "we" you man Ageira?
[01.09.2019 19:07:56] FTI>'Jacob'-A: Not exactly, with "we", I mean our company, Future Technologies and Innovations.
[01.09.2019 19:08:25] =CR=ISE-Ashanti: What else does your company do, apart from escorts?
[01.09.2019 19:08:51] FTI>'Jacob'-A: Our company concentrates on the production of androids, such as me.
[01.09.2019 19:09:01] FTI>'Jacob'-A: I am a SC-500 security model.
[01.09.2019 19:09:06] =CR=ISE-Ashanti: Ah. So you're a robot.
[01.09.2019 19:09:21] FTI>'Jacob'-A: You could say so but the appropriate term is, in fact, android.
[01.09.2019 19:09:43] =CR=ISE-Ashanti: Right. how does 1 million sound?
[01.09.2019 19:09:55] FTI>'Jacob'-A: Anything will do.
[01.09.2019 19:10:03] =CR=ISE-Ashanti: You'll just have to fly ahead and warn us of any hostiles
[01.09.2019 19:11:08] =CR=ISE-Ashanti: Tell me me once you've cleared a lane or gate
[01.09.2019 19:11:12] =CR=ISE-Ashanti: Just keep going
[01.09.2019 19:11:18] FTI>'Jacob'-A: Everything is clear on this end.
[01.09.2019 19:11:21] =CR=ISE-Ashanti: If I fall too far behind I'll tell you to wait
[01.09.2019 19:11:29] FTI>'Jacob'-A: Understood.
[01.09.2019 19:11:52] FTI>'Jacob'-A: The gate is clear.
[01.09.2019 19:12:03] =CR=ISE-Ashanti: ok
[01.09.2019 19:12:06] =CR=ISE-Ashanti: proceed
[01.09.2019 19:12:38] FTI>'Jacob'-A: No enemies on this lane.
[01.09.2019 19:13:25] =CR=ISE-Ashanti: So how big is FTI?
[01.09.2019 19:14:45] FTI>'Jacob'-A: I cannot tell you exact numbers, a lot of our workers are androids such as me, the other part is humans.
[01.09.2019 19:15:28] FTI>'Jacob'-A: Everything clear.
[01.09.2019 19:15:30] =CR=ISE-Ashanti: does your company sell any androids or other robots that can work as contruction drones in oceans?
[01.09.2019 19:16:03] FTI>'Jacob'-A: FuTech builds any kind of androids that will sell well, right now, we offer three models but are willing to expand according--
[01.09.2019 19:16:10] FTI>'Jacob'-A: -- to the customer's demands.
[01.09.2019 19:16:24] =CR=ISE-Ashanti: What kind of models are there now?
[01.09.2019 19:17:02] FTI>'Jacob'-A: Right now we offer the RZ-200, which is a transport and logistics android, the SC-500, a security android and the WK-300 model-
[01.09.2019 19:17:12] FTI>'Jacob'-A: -- which is a household assistant primarily.
[01.09.2019 19:18:12] FTI>'Jacob'-A: If you need further information, the company as a neural net shop for all models.
[01.09.2019 19:18:40] =CR=ISE-Ashanti: I guess I can search for that on the neuralnet then
[01.09.2019 19:18:40] FTI>'Jacob'-A: Alternatively, you can ask questions about the company to our staff.
[01.09.2019 19:18:43] FTI>'Jacob'-A: The gate is clear.
[01.09.2019 19:19:20] FTI>'Jacob'-A: Is your organization in need for androids that work on construction sites on oceans?
[01.09.2019 19:19:34] =CR=ISE-Ashanti: Does your sub branch of Ageira sell Trade Lanes too?
[01.09.2019 19:19:45] FTI>'Jacob'-A: No, that is Ageira's job only.
[01.09.2019 19:20:08] FTI>'Jacob'-A: Do you wish to proceed on your own from here?
[01.09.2019 19:20:15] =CR=ISE-Ashanti: sure
[01.09.2019 19:20:24] FTI>'Jacob'-A: Well then, it was a pleasure.
[01.09.2019 19:20:41] FTI>'Jacob'-A: Safe travels.
[01.09.2019 19:21:06] /givecash fti>'jacob'-a 1000000
[01.09.2019 19:21:06] [2019-09-01] 19:21:05 You have sent 1.000.000 credits to FTI>'Jacob'-A.
[01.09.2019 19:21:12] FTI>'Jacob'-A: Thank you for your contribution.
[01.09.2019 19:21:29] =CR=ISE-Ashanti: Maybe the Republic will contact you about those contstruction robots
[01.09.2019 19:21:58] FTI>'Jacob'-A: Of course, we will await your transmission.

Given the turbulence around the Gallic front I decided to fill Minato Harbor’s request for fuel. The risk is still elevated cruising these various systems however we found most of the Gallic forces are carelessly positioned. We were lucky traversing through Leeds, next time I will request a CR escort.
The engineering crew at Minato were delighted to see us and we had a round of cheer at the bar. We also delivered a haul of light arms to our friends at Davos which in turn allowed us to aquire the Thorium fuel for Minato. This is a lucrative route that supports our war efforts and trading relationships.
Regards, Will

Administrator,
We found a source for Tellurium in the Provence system. This should assist our manufacturing efforts and foundry processes. The vendor is located in a Freeport a couple jumps from Tau-44. When traveling between Tau-44 and Provence I recommend staying in the rocks to avoid the bourgeoisie sensors.
Regards, Will

► Subject: Kusarian at Planet HArris
One of our Atlas transports was followed from the Leeds-Tau 31 gate, by a Kusari Navy Fighter, while making a delivery of synth paste to Planet Harris. As our vessel then launched to make a supply run to Melbourne, it was accosted and physically bumped by the fighter. Luckily two SIS ships were also there, which stopped a probable attack on our transport.
Our captain then overheard a clumsy attempt by the Kusarian to convince SIS that Crayter is in cahoots with a genocidal Gallia, seeming to allege that Confederates were allying with royalists and using so called "Warwolf" weaponry.
I doubt the SIS will fall for anything as stupid as allegations that Bretonias allies, who helped them defeat the royalists and liberated Planet Harris for Bretonia, are in fact in cahoots with royalists, and that the Kusarians, who actually were in cahoots and trading with royalists, are really the "good guys" when they are attacking two of Bretonias allies. The Kusari fool was also very insulting towards the SIS agents, while apparently trying to win them over.
I've attached the logs provided by our Atlas captain below.
[01.08.2020 15:41:10] [KNF]'Hitokiri'|66th: Your ignorance of the matter speaks well enough. Response is the wrong term here, to be honest.
[01.08.2020 15:42:14] OS&C|Wawel_Dragon: Patryk: Greetings this is Patryk Lukiewski captain of the Wawel Dragon fast liner
[01.08.2020 15:42:27] [KNF]'Hitokiri'|66th: There are new updates and the situation grows more complicated. Should you wish to salvage and act early, I'm sure it would pay off more. Sure. I do see an unwanted vessel around here.
[01.08.2020 15:43:24] =CR=ISE-Atlas-3: What do you want, Kusarian?
[01.08.2020 15:43:25] [SIS]-Lynx: "He's not carrying contraband."
[01.08.2020 15:43:41] [SIS]-Lynx: "As far as I'm concerned, he's good to go."
[01.08.2020 15:44:12] [KNF]'Hitokiri'|66th: It's a logistical vessel that belongs to a criminal entity that's currently at war with the empire.
[01.08.2020 15:44:48] [SIS]-Lynx: "And?"
[01.08.2020 15:44:50] =CR=ISE-Atlas-3: We have made no hostile actions towards you, despite your provocation and unwarranted aggresion.
[01.08.2020 15:45:09] [SIS]-Lynx: "As much as I hate to say it, the Crayterian's correct."
[01.08.2020 15:45:17] =CR=ISE-Atlas-3: We are a civilian transport supplying planet Harris and Melbourne
[01.08.2020 15:45:24] [SIS]-Lynx: "You're the aggressor here, Kusarian."
[01.08.2020 15:45:31] [KNF]'Hitokiri'|66th: Are we?
[01.08.2020 15:45:41] [SIS]-Lynx: "You just demonstrated it right now."
[01.08.2020 15:46:11] [SIS]-Lynx: "It is clear that said vessel is a mere supplier, yet your intent was palpable."
[01.08.2020 15:46:30] [KNF]'Hitokiri'|66th: Did I mention that I was going to shoot the vessel? I'm very clearly standing in front of Planet Harris - a Bretonian entity - within the presence of two Bretonian enforcement officers.
[01.08.2020 15:47:12] [SIS]-Lynx: "You never -explicitly- said you wished to blow it up."
[01.08.2020 15:47:13] [KNF]'Hitokiri'|66th: Please, Bretonian, don't make a fool of yourself or me.
[01.08.2020 15:47:15] =CR=ISE-Atlas-3: Your theft of our station speaks volumes of your intentions. After Crayter and Gallia, you will likely attack Bretonia.
[01.08.2020 15:47:17] [SIS]-Lynx: "But your intent showed it."
[01.08.2020 15:47:43] [KNF]'Hitokiri'|66th: You were given the option at several times to evacuate peacefully, Crayterian.
[01.08.2020 15:47:53] =CR=ISE-Atlas-3: Already you are disrupting peaceful trade to its planet.
[01.08.2020 15:47:59] [KNF]'Hitokiri'|66th: Instead you decided to take arms and fight, which you later regretted and vacated eventually.
[01.08.2020 15:48:21] [SIS]-Earl.Grey: *loud but short beeping pulse*
[01.08.2020 15:48:25] =CR=ISE-Atlas-3: I think you are misinformed, Kusarian. We evacuated the station to avoid bloodshed
[01.08.2020 15:48:37] [KNF]'Hitokiri'|66th: You did fight beforehand. We have records of multiple cruisers and gunboats engaging our ships.
[01.08.2020 15:49:02] [SIS]-Lynx: "Wouldn't you do the same if the parts were inverted?"
[01.08.2020 15:49:08] =CR=ISE-Atlas-3: I am not aware of any Crayter ship attacking you.
[01.08.2020 15:49:22] [KNF]'Hitokiri'|66th: Depending on the circumnstances, Bretonian.
[01.08.2020 15:49:42] =CR=ISE-Atlas-3: But you have made it abundantly clear that you wish to escalate conflicts with your neighbors to suit yoru imperial greed.
[01.08.2020 15:49:53] [SIS]-Lynx: "Now, I have a question though."
[01.08.2020 15:49:57] [KNF]'Hitokiri'|66th: If we had been an incompetent military that failed to keep the Taus secure and allowed for a cruiser of the coalition to pass by from what I can only guess to be Bretonia, the Taus and then into Kyushu.
[01.08.2020 15:50:20] [SIS]-Lynx: "Which are your true intentions in the Taus, Kusarian?"
[01.08.2020 15:50:31] [KNF]'Hitokiri'|66th: We wouldn't be so opposed for someone with more strength to handle the task.
[01.08.2020 15:50:34] [SIS]-Lynx: "You know as well as we do that Gallia is weakened."
[01.08.2020 15:50:37] =CR=ISE-Atlas-3: You could have asked to patrol here instead of simply invading. Your excuses dont hold water, Kusarian.
[01.08.2020 15:51:13] [KNF]'Hitokiri'|66th: Basic military doctrine implies that you need to make all routes and junctions prior to a military operation secured a hundred percent. Your presence at Holman is not something we'd feel safe with.
[01.08.2020 15:51:46] =CR=ISE-Atlas-3: And now, see your aggression on Gallia. There can be no doubt: you are going on a conquest to steal what ever you can from who ever you can.
[01.08.2020 15:51:54] [SIS]-Lynx: "You speak for yourselves only though-"
[01.08.2020 15:52:42] [KNF]'Hitokiri'|66th: Had we wanted to conquer and pillage Gallia, you wouldn't find most of their stations intact, their planets still within their grasp, or their corporations to continue to trade smoothely.
[01.08.2020 15:53:17] =CR=ISE-Atlas-3: Didnt you steal Nimes already? Gallia is fighting back, obviously.
[01.08.2020 15:54:00] [KNF]'Hitokiri'|66th: You're a civilian with little expertise of Military affairs, from what I can tell. Outposts have to be established and checkpoints to be made when you're in a military campaign.
[01.08.2020 15:54:46] [SIS]-Lynx: "You did outright went and commandeered Holman from the Crayterians' grasp, though."
[01.08.2020 15:54:48] =CR=ISE-Atlas-3: Who do you think you're fooling, Kusarian? You're only embarrassing yourself.
[01.08.2020 15:54:57] [SIS]-Lynx: "Did you really expect them not to fight back?"
[01.08.2020 15:55:13] [KNF]'Hitokiri'|66th: Holman is still the Miner's Guild property.
[01.08.2020 15:55:22] [SIS]-Lynx: "I speak of Crayter, not the IMG."
[01.08.2020 15:55:22] =CR=ISE-Atlas-3: yes I'm talking to them atm. THere are 2 SIS here too. Please stay away.
[01.08.2020 15:55:39] [KNF]'Hitokiri'|66th: You're implying that the Cryterians kept their hands on Holman?
[01.08.2020 15:55:47] [SIS]-Lynx: "Did I say it?"
[01.08.2020 15:56:02] [SIS]-Lynx: "Don't play coy with me, Kusarian."
[01.08.2020 15:56:02] [KNF]'Hitokiri'|66th: You did.
[01.08.2020 15:56:06] [SIS]-Lynx: "I did not."
[01.08.2020 15:56:22] [SIS]-Lynx: "I said we're speaking about Crayterians right now, not about the IMG."
[01.08.2020 15:56:33] [KNF]'Hitokiri'|66th: You literally said "You commandeered Hlam from the Crayterians' grasp".Unless you're speaking of Barra. But then I'd have to question your awareness of the region.
[01.08.2020 15:57:35] [SIS]-Lynx: "Let's cut this short: where are you hinting, Kusarian?"
[01.08.2020 15:57:57] =CR=ISE-Atlas-3: And why are you hassling transports that trade with Harris?
[01.08.2020 15:58:00] [SIS]-Lynx: "Yes, hinting."
[01.08.2020 15:58:10] [KNF]'Hitokiri'|66th: I don't follow.
[01.08.2020 15:58:43] [SIS]-Lynx: "You come to Harris, show a clear hostile intent to this Crayterian vessel."
[01.08.2020 15:59:12] [KNF]'Hitokiri'|66th: I just want to find out what it's hauling and where it was heading, that's all.
[01.08.2020 15:59:19] =CR=ISE-Atlas-3: I have the feeling they will try to invade Harris next. Already they are skulking around in Bretonian space.
[01.08.2020 15:59:20] [KNF]'Hitokiri'|66th: You two are the ones making a fuss over it.
[01.08.2020 15:59:25] [SIS]-Lynx: "No, you are."
[01.08.2020 15:59:31] [SIS]-Lynx: "Seeing as you are deaf."
[01.08.2020 15:59:40] [SIS]-Lynx: "He told you where he was headed."
[01.08.2020 15:59:47] [SIS]-Lynx: "Am I right, Earl Grey?"
[01.08.2020 15:59:58] [KNF]'Hitokiri'|66th: He did. But you opened a whole discussion, am I wrong?
[01.08.2020 16:00:03] [SIS]-Earl.Grey: I do believe so, Sir.
[01.08.2020 16:00:07] [SIS]-Lynx: "You're wrong."
[01.08.2020 16:00:13] [KNF]'Hitokiri'|66th: You are wrong.
[01.08.2020 16:00:15] [SIS]-Lynx: "You kickstarted all if this."
[01.08.2020 16:00:35] [SIS]-Lynx: "And in doing so, you risk a diplomatic incident."
[01.08.2020 16:00:48] [KNF]'Hitokiri'|66th: I do suggest you fixiate your approach, Lynx. Consequences may not be in your favor.
[01.08.2020 16:01:05] [SIS]-Earl.Grey: Reading another blip on the scope.
[01.08.2020 16:03:23] [KNF]'Hitokiri'|66th: I'm not sure you understnd any of it, to be fair.
[01.08.2020 16:03:28] [KNF]'Hitokiri'|66th: Understand, rather.
[01.08.2020 16:03:50] =CR=ISE-Atlas-3: We liberated Harris for Bretonia, we are clearly the ones interested in peace and stability. Kusari is clearly not.
[01.08.2020 16:04:10] =CR=Drifting.Sword: so hows it looking over there
[01.08.2020 16:04:15] [KNF]'Hitokiri'|66th: Had you cared for peace and stability, that Coalition destroyed wouldn't have passed to Kyushu through the Taus, Crayterian.
[01.08.2020 16:04:25] [KNF]'Hitokiri'|66th: Unless, of course, you let it pass on purpose.
[01.08.2020 16:04:30] [SIS]-Lynx: "Knowing the Coalition..."
[01.08.2020 16:04:40] [SIS]-Lynx: "They have shortcuts."
[01.08.2020 16:04:57] [SIS]-Lynx: "And they might have passed without them being alerted."
[01.08.2020 16:05:01] [KNF]'Hitokiri'|66th: The only shortcuts that there are include passing through even more dangerous territory.
[01.08.2020 16:05:15] [SIS]-Lynx: "They call those 'Red Lines'."
[01.08.2020 16:05:29] =CR=ISE-Atlas-3: As if a star system can be hermetically sealed by anyone. See the slave and cardamine trade going into New York.
[01.08.2020 16:05:31] [SIS]-Lynx: "Trust me, I know."
[01.08.2020 16:05:50] [KNF]'Hitokiri'|66th: You certainly don't.
[01.08.2020 16:05:52] =CR=ISE-Atlas-3: Your excuses for conquest make no sense, Kusarian.
[01.08.2020 16:06:13] [SIS]-Lynx: "You question my knowledge on Coalition tactics?"
[01.08.2020 16:06:30] [KNF]'Hitokiri'|66th: By how this conversation has been going, I'm questioning many things.
[01.08.2020 16:06:51] [SIS]-Lynx: "As I'm questioning whether or not you've been indoctrinated in speaking this way."
[01.08.2020 16:07:07] [SIS]-Lynx: "Questions, questions..."
[01.08.2020 16:07:17] [KNF]'Hitokiri'|66th: Whatever you say, Bretonian.
[01.08.2020 16:07:50] [KNF]'Hitokiri'|66th: The confedrency already teamed up with royalist remnants and Warwolfs have already been used, and we're already but a month into the war.
[01.08.2020 16:08:06] [SIS]-Lynx: "I doubt you have solid proof of that."
[01.08.2020 16:08:08] [KNF]'Hitokiri'|66th: Unless you're stupid or lack any awareness, that should speak a lot about why this war was made. Proof has already been forwarded to both the SIS and the armed forces.
[01.08.2020 16:08:33] =CR=ISE-Atlas-3: You are forgetting the little detail that all this is a result of Kusari aggression, Kusarian.
[01.08.2020 16:08:47] [SIS]-Lynx: "Yet, I believe they are analyzing it."
[01.08.2020 16:09:01] [KNF]'Hitokiri'|66th: Are you openly justifying the use of the forbidden weapons, Crayterian? Had they had any resolve to stand against their warcriminal bretheren, they'd atleast reach a point where they'r more desperate.
[01.08.2020 16:09:28] =CR=ISE-Atlas-3: I dont believe in your lies, Kusarian. I've heard you lie too often for that.
[01.08.2020 16:11:55] [KNF]'Hitokiri'|66th: I suppose you have nothing else to add so I'll conclude this little interaction with a final note. The Crayter Republic is still at war with Kusari, along with a little band of wannabe nationalists that wish to enter the fray. Kusari does not aim to actively combat these organizations, but rest assured that with each Kusari fighter downed, we'll down ten. Should Crayter not come forward to the negotiations table and fixiate its position in the region, it'll only pay the price for its arrogance.
[01.08.2020 16:13:50] =CR=ISE-Atlas-3: Crayter has survived worse than your threats and lies, Kusarian.
[01.08.2020 16:13:52] [KNF]'Hitokiri'|66th: I hope you relay the information, Bretonian.
[01.08.2020 16:14:03] [SIS]-Lynx: "I will, sure enough."
[01.08.2020 16:14:23] [KNF]'Hitokiri'|66th: Of course you have, much like parasites do.
[01.08.2020 16:14:26] [SIS]-Lynx: "Now,
[01.08.2020 16:14:36] =CR=ISE-Atlas-3: Now you are pretending that we are the ones who didnt want to negotiate, when you were the ones to send in your fleets without warning.
[01.08.2020 16:15:02] [KNF]'Hitokiri'|66th: You were given notice and options at several occaisions. You refused. Now you've paid the price.
[01.08.2020 16:15:23] =CR=ISE-Atlas-3: Again, twisting the truth.
[01.08.2020 16:15:49] =CR=ISE-Atlas-3: We gave Harris to Bretonia and Barra to Kusari to preserve the peace. And then you went and attacked Gallia
[01.08.2020 16:16:20] [KNF]'Hitokiri'|66th: All our justifications for war were proven true from the start, should you keep tabs on CNS at all.
