Transmission to the Gas Miner's Guild

[Order Science Division]

"Greetings esteemed guildmasters,
Some time ago, Order High Command established an economical alliance with the Gas Miner's Guild in order to procure additional fuel for it's fleet and to improve relationships with various elements in and around Kusari space, I'm sure you know to whom we are referring.

Since the recent restructuring of The Order upon my return from deep space, I've been informed that this alliance has lapsed, largely due to the unavailability of escort and patrol craft for such trade routes with the Order's military forces allocated elsewhere. It is my hope that we can re-establish these trade routes, now that the Science Division has it's own escort craft to provide security for your ships.

We are proposing the following:

1. The GMG renew their trade routes to Order space. The Order Science Division will provide escort ships whenever available to ensure the safety of your transports. Upon acceptance of this proposal, GMG vessels will be granted free access to Order bases in Omicron Minor.

2. The OSD's Logistics section be granted access to a small number of your Kamome-class transports for the purposes of transporting fuel and other cargo. Currently we have access only to Borderworlds Transports provided by the Zoners at Freeport 11, and we would like to diversify our Logistics fleet with the addition of alternative vessels.

3. The OSD's Security Escorts and research craft be granted access to GMG weaponry, in the event that the need for such weaponry arises.

We are, of course, open to providing anything we can, although the use of Order technology must be approved through High Command and the primary fleet.

We await your response,
-Commander Staite, OSD Director of Operations"
