It comes as a surprise to us after Daumann proved to be willing to let the latest cases of IMG ore theft go without the most possible reprecussions for the Guild, independent miners decided for such serious action. The current state of affairs saddens the Board of Directors and may convince us to redefine our policy towards the Guild.
Daumann Heavy Construction is interested in Omega-9 system and will survey it in some time. However, we show no interest in claiming the system for ourselves and respect its local inhabitants, as well as other parties in the area. Independent miners are reminded it is up to our Corporation's good will should the Guild be allowed to enter Daumann-owned part of Omega-7 in order to reach Omega-9 jump hole. I'd also like to remind jump hole in Omega-3 is situated inside our terrain as well.
As for now, due to the Guild's hostile steps and overreaction for natural acces restriction to Omega-7 part owned by Daumann Heavy Construction, acces for Roth Asteroid Field is banned for the Guild's vessels. I trust there's not even need to mention our property Omega-11; it's closed for the Guild and always has been.
In general:
1. Daumann Heavy Construction does not acknowledge any "claims" on Omega-9 parts made by confederation of independent miners.
2. Any hostile action to Daumann vessels in that system from the Guild's side will be properly answered.
3. Independent Miners' Guild is reminded not to enter Daumann areas in Omega-7 and Omega-3, regardless of any jump holes connection which are located inside those fields. The system of Omega-11 is totally out of question.
4. Should the Guild decide to seek peaceful agreement on subject of transit rights through our fields, we are ready to discuss that subject under the term all claims to Omega-9 parts are withdrawn, and no incidents initiated by the Guild and involving our units will occur.
The Guild would like to clarify that the claims are not negotiable until the restrictions placed on the IMG in Omega 7 and now in Omega 3 have been revoked, as stated in the initial claim. The Guild has long understood what DHC has been aiming for. Consequently your decision to exclude the IMG from Omega 9 access forced the IMG to act. The IMG will not see another system like today's Omega 11 happen.
Furthermore we would like to clarify that the Guild's Omega 9 claim is not a territorial one, but that the claim only includes the right of use of the resources that may be found by prospection, while your claims seem to be territorial in nature and include the right to pass through.
The Independent Miners Guild acknowledges that DHC has the exclusive mining rights to the Roth Asteroid field. The Guild however is also sure you do not hold any legal right on regulating traffic inside Bretonian space.
Acknowledging your mining rights, the Guild will not move ships specified as mining vessels of the Arrastra, Annapurna or Hegemon type through the DHC territories of Omega 3 or Omega 7. We hereby make sure that allegations of theft won't happen.
We however make use of the right of every citizen to use jumphole connections between systems with every other class of ships in Omega 3.
We strongly advise DHC not to interfere with movement between Omega 3 and Omega 9.
We would like to also remind you that Omega 3 is Bretonian space and that you are operating under Bretonian Law.
