SUBJECT: TheTinMan modular base construction

Guten Tag, Herr Cassidy. My name is Christiane Laurich and I am kommissar from administrative department of the Rheinland Federal Polizei.

We appreciate that you contacted us yourself regarding this matter and confessed your mistake. Unfortunately, construction of the base without proper registration was big mistake in this particular case. Not only is it against the law, but if you had applied and told us the planned location, we would have told you that according to paragraph 2.1.3.1. of Article Three of Rheinland Laws, all mining fields within Munich system are the property of Daumann Heavy Construction. Thus, for construction of any base within Chiemsee Asteroid Fields or in the area of ten kilometers around it, permission from DHC- primary division is mandatory. And considering one of our polizei officers had a chance to spoke with their representative this evening and talk about your base, and the representative said that the permission will not be given, there seems to be no other choice than dismantling your base and constructing it again according to current laws and regulations.

To conclude, unless you would be able to obtain mentioned permission from DHC- primary division immediatelly, we have to order you to abandon the base. In case you will not dismantle it, law enforcement forces will do that with possible following legal consequencies.

Mit Grüße

Kommissar Laurich

END OF THE MESSAGE

Dear Kommisar Laurich,

thank you for your reply. As I said, this base is planned as a Daumann outpost. If you could redirect me to the person who manages the contracts between Daumann and the Rheinland gouvernment I would gladly present my case there. Of course we will dismantle the base, that could unfortunately take a few days at least due to the radiation in that area that requires proper transports for the qualified personal on board.
However we would call that temporary protopype programm a partial success because the practicability has been shown. Therefore I am hereby applying for the approval of another base, project name "Daumann - The Tin Man II". Due to the experiences with the prototype we would like to build this next base a bit more near the edge of the mineable zone to prevent hindrance of mining activities in the zone.

As a sidenote I might add that this base will (A) strenghten the presence of armored units and defense units in that area, which unfortunatley, despite your reference to possible (as I might add, during the last months dwindling) military presence in this sector, is crawling with Bundschuh pirates and even Corsair raiders.
Furthermore it will (B) strengthen the economic ties with Bretonia as a guarantor for peace and strengthen Rheinlands transport enterprises, namely the ALG and other transport enterprises.
At last it will © strengthen the Bretonian ship industry especially Southhampton shipyard, which in turn will prevent further Gallic advances into Bretonian and frontier space and will otherwise eventually lead to the war being fought at our own doorstep.

Vielen Dank, I will be happy to hearing from you again.
R. Cassidy.
