Well friend, sorry I didn't get back to you earlier. I've been trying to keep training some of the captains I recruited to join us in Pelicans last month. Due to the net crash I lost contact with them for some time. Thankfully we're getting back on track and I think it will work out well for us.
Firstly, as to this new GMG gunboat, I am certainly interested in any intel on the matter, especially if any of our enemies might wind up with such ships. However I doubt I'll be able to get myself or any of the others over to the Sigmas for a while yet. I've been running around all over, in and out of the Taus, back to Liberty, and basing myself out of my personal operations center on Barrier Gate Station. As much as I'd like to, I'd prefer to avoid rustling the GMG hornet's nest unless absolutely necessary. If things go well over the next week or so... Just try to rendezvous with me and any others, and we can discuss a way to get a 'volunteer' in and out for some information gathering.
Secondly, as to the Congress problem I mentioned at our last rendzevous, just look out for any of their ships as best you can, if you can. Its the usual problem with mercenaries cashing in on their dreams of heroism and 'honor'. We can't save every Freelancer or non affiliated Junker out there, but I am sworn to protect Congress ships regardless of what they're shipping. Their vessels have been warned about the threat and are taking measures. Hopefully we have minimized any potential losses, but I'll continue to base myself out of Coronado for a while yet. Remember, any extra work you do to help out will be additionally compensated for.
As to the GRN activity lately, it's been quite alarming to see such a Gallic presence in Liberty house space. This is getting out of hand. Unfortunately all we can do is continue our usual business for now. There's not much our Pelicans can do about an armada of battleships. I'll let the soldiers on the front do their thing. In the mean time, even just yesterday we intercepted a GMS Transport in Tau-29, and made him pay up for trading in occupied territory. I advise continuing to hit their economy as often as we can. I suppose if things in California turn even more sour, we'll have to stash our transports, take to bombers ourselves, and join the party... Something I never considered except in the event of another Nomad invasion. Try to stay in once piece, you know where to find me.
