BDM Operational Report Archive
26/09/2018
Diplomatic talks || Hardware acquisition
I should of filed this while I had the chance but we've been so heavily backlogged due to other efforts. The routine operational report has become... Something of a nostalgic feeling. You don't do many of these once you're managing everything else, mainly just reading them.
Anyhow, while on a long range operation within the Galileo system on the Kusari-Liberty border to pick up the engineering team we'd deployed on Leiden for a joint operation for the Lane-Hackers. Me and Yoshida had a good chat on the topic of "Diplomacy" within the Bering theatre. I admit, his need to ensure there is a balance of power between the forces of the Unioners and Harmony and to fill in on the details we've would of missed out on.
His... promotion on the Unioners is worrying, while I'm not to involve the agency within any sort of negotiations with these terrorists. I do understand his viewpoint, his attempt was quite supportive into producing a peace treaty between them and to ensure the balance of power as to not extend harmony's legality and recognition within the state of Rheinland but my fingers can only extend so far within the political machine.
Although my point still stands about these factions. While Harmony are remnants and separatists of the Liberty navy, they are far more of an asset for the agency than the Union currently stands, not only that but their stability and predictable motives ensures our own chess pieces aren't getting surprises around the corner. The risk the Unioners currently present is not only of domestic reveal, but the backlash the agency will receive from the government administrators is... Worrying. As such, to ensure a buffer along the Bering border against the Liberty expansion in the East-Sirius independent worlds, the agency feels as if Harmony success in this conflict would benefit the Federal Republik.
Meanwhile, once we recovered the engineering team from Leiden, the lane hackers left us a nice gift for the work my partner had done. What we got along with the team was several flight cases of sensitive equipment and a data-drive of schematics and information. What they'd given us was an advanced scanner array and we're in progress of installing said equipment onto the prototype vessel.

[04.09.2018 20:35:53] LH~Leiden.Interloper: Greetings
[04.09.2018 20:36:14] BDM|U-101: Enfield: Well, sorry for the long wait, but we had to take a detour.
[04.09.2018 20:36:23] LH~Leiden.Interloper: I understand
[04.09.2018 20:36:38] LH~Leiden.Interloper: It is unfortunate BDM has not yet been granted docking access to our stations.
[04.09.2018 20:37:02] BDM|U-101: Enfield: Honestly, knowing how we both work. I think its for the better.
[04.09.2018 20:37:37] LH~Leiden.Interloper: No. I think having a hidden but well placed base of operations in Liberty is vital for your interests in your northern borde
[04.09.2018 20:37:39] LH~Leiden.Interloper: rs.
[04.09.2018 20:38:50] BDM|U-101: Enfield: Potentially, maybe we can come to some agreement. If my agents can keep their hands off your network terminals.
[04.09.2018 20:39:57] LH~Leiden.Interloper: It's good to hear you are positive to such a development.
[04.09.2018 20:40:36] LH~Leiden.Interloper: You know what they say, when the war ends, your work really begins then.
[04.09.2018 20:40:57] BDM|U-101: Enfield: Mhmm, that is true. Anyhow--
[04.09.2018 20:41:08] BDM|U-101: Enfield: How was she? Not too much of a hassle I suppose?
[04.09.2018 20:43:24] LH~Leiden.Interloper: We took a hit on our alcohol reserves
[04.09.2018 20:44:07] LH~Leiden.Interloper: Not sure if it was because of the free pass your team enjoyed or she is a genuine alcoholic. Or why would she have a usage
[04.09.2018 20:44:14] LH~Leiden.Interloper: for drinks, like a human would have.
[04.09.2018 20:45:31] BDM|U-101: Enfield: She tends to do that, she uses it as... Coolant liquid, She apparently likes it when the vapours-
[04.09.2018 20:45:40] BDM|U-101: Enfield: Hit her Neural-Processor.
[04.09.2018 20:45:48] BDM|U-101: Enfield: You can imagine the effect--
[04.09.2018 20:46:14] BDM|U-101: Enfield: When you can't sleep, piss-blind drunk is the closest thing she can get to.
[04.09.2018 20:47:35] LH~Leiden.Interloper: I see. Other than that she was cooperative though a bit irritating with the "assistants" I supplied her with.
[04.09.2018 20:48:01] LH~Leiden.Interloper: I suspect it was because she was away from you, for that I cannot blame her.
[04.09.2018 20:48:29] BDM|U-101: Enfield: How sweet, sounds like she coped well.
[04.09.2018 20:49:14] BDM|U-101: Enfield: I have to say though, it got quiet around the office. I suspect SMS's don't pass though this cloud very well--
[04.09.2018 20:49:47] BDM|U-101: Enfield: And external messaging to guests don't go to well though your firewall.
[04.09.2018 20:50:45] LH~Leiden.Interloper: I hope you understand... We are very anxious about security.
[04.09.2018 20:51:21] BDM|U-101: Enfield: Hah, yeah-- Well, thats also my job.
[04.09.2018 20:51:42] LH~Leiden.Interloper: How did your wife found the gift I left in her storage?
[04.09.2018 20:51:49] LH~Leiden.Interloper: find*
[04.09.2018 20:52:01] BDM|U-101: Enfield: I'll have to ask her.
[04.09.2018 20:52:18] LH~Leiden.Interloper: It was a.. bonus for the good work she provided for us.
[04.09.2018 20:52:18] BDM|U-101: XO: Air lock is now secured sir, passengers are aboard.
[04.09.2018 20:54:19] BDM|U-101: Zeal: *Though the comms* Honey, I hope you're there. They decided to give us a little parting-present.
[04.09.2018 20:55:10] BDM|U-101: Enfield: Nah-ha, Nice to hear you... It's not a case of RDX is it? That certainly was a surprise.
[04.09.2018 20:55:58] BDM|U-101: Zeal: No, whole team practically was wheeling in secure lock boxes. Seems like scanning equipment...
[04.09.2018 20:56:41] BDM|U-101: Enfield: Well that certainly is a good surprise, at this point I don't know who's in-debt to eachother.
[04.09.2018 20:58:10] LH~Leiden.Interloper: It is time for you to leave this area, Military.
[04.09.2018 20:58:44] LH~Leiden.Interloper: You are in restricted territory and your presence is no longer tolerated
[04.09.2018 20:58:58] LH~Leiden.Interloper: Target has left.
[04.09.2018 20:59:26] LH~Leiden.Interloper: I am glad you enjoyed this precious gift. We are generous with our friends, remember that Direktor.
[04.09.2018 20:59:42] LH~Leiden.Interloper: Which reminds me, we recently learned of a ruling from Rheinland
[04.09.2018 21:00:16] LH~Leiden.Interloper: Labeling us as undesirables and throwing us into the same category as common criminals and terrorists.
[04.09.2018 21:00:34] BDM|U-101: Enfield: Actually...
[04.09.2018 21:00:45] BDM|U-101: Enfield: Re-read it... I had to fight for this--
[04.09.2018 21:00:58] LH~Leiden.Interloper: Has your government so quickly forgotten our contributions in your 5-year-long conflict with Liberty?
[04.09.2018 21:01:17] BDM|U-101: Enfield: You were going to be placed in the listings of state-enemies, a "Shot-on-Sight" category.
[04.09.2018 21:02:01] BDM|U-101: Enfield: Although some swaying with senators by ensuring their finance records aren't publicly displayed halted that.
[04.09.2018 21:02:39] LH~Leiden.Interloper: State your identity, freelancer.
[04.09.2018 21:02:52] LH~Leiden.Interloper: And you did the same for the Rogues too I presume?
[04.09.2018 21:02:54] Ta'Lon: freelancer
[04.09.2018 21:03:03] LH~Leiden.Interloper: Because we are on the same category as they are.
[04.09.2018 21:03:18] LH~Leiden.Interloper: And what's your purpose in this restricted area?
[04.09.2018 21:03:29] BDM|U-101: Enfield: Secure channel confirmed... And yes, this means that law enforcement do have the power to ask you to leave--
[04.09.2018 21:03:40] Ta'Lon: I'm friends with your base, dropping off some military scum
[04.09.2018 21:03:51] BDM|U-101: Enfield: To their discretion... But not to shoot you for your presence within Rheinland territory.
[04.09.2018 21:04:00] LH~Leiden.Interloper: Interesting. Are you accompanying this BDM gunboat? Are you working together?
[04.09.2018 21:04:10] BDM|U-101: Enfield: But if they do ask you to leave, its best you follow their deamnds.
[04.09.2018 21:04:16] Ta'Lon: no sir, don't know them
[04.09.2018 21:04:30] BDM|U-101: Enfield: I asked you a question Hacker.
[04.09.2018 21:04:30] LH~Leiden.Interloper: So you lobbied for the Rogues too then.
[04.09.2018 21:04:35] Ta'Lon: If ya need some help, I'm here
[04.09.2018 21:04:49] LH~Leiden.Interloper: Please remind me. When did the Rogues fight besides your men, provided critical intelligence to your forces or
[04.09.2018 21:04:50] BDM|U-101: Enfield: Don't just tally off and think nothing of it.
[04.09.2018 21:05:07] LH~Leiden.Interloper: helped you with known criminal cartels taking advantage of your House.
[04.09.2018 21:05:15] Ta'Lon: is that na bretonia, way up here
[04.09.2018 21:05:29] LH~Leiden.Interloper: Okay you may go.
[04.09.2018 21:05:35] BDM|U-101: Enfield: By ensuring that their presence in the independant worlds creates a buffer zone between us and Liberty.
[04.09.2018 21:05:45] LH~Leiden.Interloper: The BDM gunboat will not be so lucky and leave. There are more questions...
[04.09.2018 21:05:59] Ta'Lon: what is MND
[04.09.2018 21:06:06] LH~Leiden.Interloper: Keep moving.
[04.09.2018 21:06:19] BDM|U-101: Enfield: None of your god damn business. Move before I sock you in your mouth.
[04.09.2018 21:07:13] BDM|U-101: Enfield: Hudson is still up-for-grabs, and Harmony and Unioners are still pissing about in Bering.
[04.09.2018 21:07:14] Ta'Lon: typical loud mouth
[04.09.2018 21:07:24] BDM|U-101: Enfield: Eat a pile of dirt.
[04.09.2018 21:07:30] BDM|U-101: Enfield: Eat a pile of dirt.
[04.09.2018 21:07:37] LH~Leiden.Interloper: Well, we were mistaken to believe Rheinland would return our support. Such a shame.
[04.09.2018 21:07:59] LH~Leiden.Interloper: We could have acted just like the Rogues and received the same end result.
[04.09.2018 21:08:11] BDM|U-101: Enfield: You did.
[04.09.2018 21:09:05] BDM|U-101: Enfield: "Doubious reputation" is just like a uhh--
[04.09.2018 21:09:43] BDM|U-101: Enfield: People who you should watch out for and ensure they keep moving, instead of loitering around.
[04.09.2018 21:10:10] BDM|U-101: Enfield: Nothing that legally allows Law Enforcement vessels to shoot you on sight for.
[04.09.2018 21:10:42] BDM|U-101: Enfield: If such things were to happen, there'd be room for legal action to take place.
[04.09.2018 21:11:20] LH~Leiden.Interloper: I see
[04.09.2018 21:11:28] LH~Leiden.Interloper: We witnessed it first-hand actually
[04.09.2018 21:11:36] LH~Leiden.Interloper: In my second mania-interrogation of the Bundschuh leader.
[04.09.2018 21:11:38] BDM|U-101: Enfield: Really now--?
[04.09.2018 21:11:59] LH~Leiden.Interloper: One RM battleship arrived and 2 [RM] snubs. They ignored our presence and burned the already damaged
[04.09.2018 21:12:13] LH~Leiden.Interloper: Bundschuh leader's transport to the very end.
[04.09.2018 21:12:27] LH~Leiden.Interloper: They ignored our presence but we didn't bother them as well.
[04.09.2018 21:12:44] BDM|U-101: Enfield: Mhmm-- Sounds like I seem to get the message to the senator's heads.
[04.09.2018 21:12:51] BDM|U-101: Enfield: That or the gunbarrel will.
[04.09.2018 21:13:01] LH~Leiden.Interloper: I believe I have already sent you the relevant files
[04.09.2018 21:13:28] LH~Leiden.Interloper: Of that mania-interrogation. And I hope you used them to put pressure on the corrupt ALG or further disgrace Bundschuh
[04.09.2018 21:13:32] LH~Leiden.Interloper: to the public eye.
[04.09.2018 21:14:02] BDM|U-101: Enfield: You have indeed, we've noticed that ALG seems to be taking steps as to not be easily found--
[04.09.2018 21:14:17] BDM|U-101: Enfield: Supporting their extreme-socalist friends.
[04.09.2018 21:14:44] BDM|U-101: Enfield: I hate politics... Mainly because I hate the people that we're fighting.
[04.09.2018 21:14:54] BDM|U-101: Enfield: Its the same jargon-crap I hear from them.
[04.09.2018 21:15:23] LH~Leiden.Interloper: Kill the traitors before your enemies.
[04.09.2018 21:15:54] BDM|U-101: Enfield: "Free the people" "The Rote Hessian Armee" "The Bundschuh are the only way" It's like--
[04.09.2018 21:16:20] BDM|U-101: Enfield: Its like a forced proprietary view, don't use it? They'll kill you.
[04.09.2018 21:16:30] LH~Leiden.Interloper: You cannot defeat your enemies if you allow the traitors to continue unopposed to further sabotage you.
[04.09.2018 21:16:39] LH~Leiden.Interloper: Hit your enemies by killing their corporate backers: ALG.
[04.09.2018 21:16:59] BDM|U-101: Enfield: Agreed, they're hidden behind a legal system and unfortunately will be the biggest thorn in our side.
[04.09.2018 21:17:14] BDM|U-101: Enfield: Corporates always have been... More than the criminals themselves sometimes.
[04.09.2018 21:17:19] Death: UN|Grafenau was put out of action by a hostile vessel.
[04.09.2018 21:17:43] LH~Leiden.Interloper: It is in your hands however to reverse that trend.
[04.09.2018 21:17:56] LH~Leiden.Interloper: Speaking of traitors, it has come to my attention..
[04.09.2018 21:18:08] BDM|U-101: Enfield: *Snorts a small laughter* Yeah well, Das Buro are trying.
[04.09.2018 21:18:48] LH~Leiden.Interloper: That Battlegroup Harmony is trying to get on Rheinland's good side.
[04.09.2018 21:19:02] BDM|U-101: Enfield: Mhmm, maybe they are.
[04.09.2018 21:19:20] LH~Leiden.Interloper: The Unioners have shared this information to us, which I expect is coming from their own corporate backers and insiders.
[04.09.2018 21:19:45] BDM|U-101: Enfield: Harmony doing this doesn't surprise me.
[04.09.2018 21:20:04] LH~Leiden.Interloper: So I was wondering if you could share with me, privately of course, how are the talks are going.
[04.09.2018 21:20:05] BDM|U-101: Enfield: But the Unioners with corporate backing? After gassing Alster shipyard? That does surprise me.
[04.09.2018 21:20:48] BDM|U-101: Enfield: We've had to ensure that Harmony doesn't over-step their boundaries... We don't want them pissing off-
[04.09.2018 21:20:57] BDM|U-101: Enfield: Another house. Thats the last thing we need.
[04.09.2018 21:21:19] BDM|U-101: Enfield: They've kept to themselves and ensured their hostility against the Unioners is to... 'Appease the republik'.
[04.09.2018 21:21:35] BDM|U-101: Enfield: Obviously something happened before hand... But we're unsure.
[04.09.2018 21:22:15] BDM|U-101: Enfield: Meanwhile, we've seen less engagements between the Unioners and other rival hostile locals such as the-
[04.09.2018 21:22:24] BDM|U-101: Enfield: Bundschuh and Rote-Hessian's.
[04.09.2018 21:22:34] BDM|U-101: Enfield: We don't know why, but we're looking into it.
[04.09.2018 21:22:53] BDM|U-101: Enfield: Last thing we want is to misjudge something... That can be a grave mistake.
[04.09.2018 21:22:57] LH~Leiden.Interloper: Good to hear
[04.09.2018 21:23:15] LH~Leiden.Interloper: We want Harmony fully legalized and recognized in Rheinland. They are our allies in the south.
[04.09.2018 21:23:42] BDM|U-101: Enfield: That seems like a good step.
[04.09.2018 21:23:59] BDM|U-101: Enfield: Lets just hope their efforts don't do anything to oppose that wish.
[04.09.2018 21:24:31] BDM|U-101: Enfield: They've also signed up with our contract board.
[04.09.2018 21:24:41] LH~Leiden.Interloper: I think it all depends in the end on whether Rheinland still has claims in the Independent Worlds
[04.09.2018 21:25:03] LH~Leiden.Interloper: or they fully ceded these claims in order to get a peace treaty with Liberty.
[04.09.2018 21:25:04] BDM|U-101: Enfield: I don't think we can at this point.
[04.09.2018 21:25:16] BDM|U-101: Enfield: Liberty seems to be annexing them from us quietly.
[04.09.2018 21:25:33] LH~Leiden.Interloper: I see. Then I don't see Harmony claiming Rheinland territory. Very good.
[04.09.2018 21:25:37] BDM|U-101: Enfield: Harmony's presence in that area was a... Fortunate accident.
[04.09.2018 21:25:54] LH~Leiden.Interloper: I like how you call it as an accident.
[04.09.2018 21:26:07] LH~Leiden.Interloper: As if it was not a calculation, by yours truly.
[04.09.2018 21:27:46] BDM|U-101: Enfield: Well then, lets just hope that buffer-zone ensures good results for all of us.
[04.09.2018 21:28:01] BDM|U-101: Enfield: What of the Unioners, we've had talks with Miss Hunter on them-
[04.09.2018 21:28:17] LH~Leiden.Interloper: What do you wish to know, Direktor?
[04.09.2018 21:28:41] BDM|U-101: Enfield: I understand your neutral position with them, but their... Sparodic and chaotic command structure is.
[04.09.2018 21:28:50] BDM|U-101: Enfield: Well, we class it as un-trustworthy.
[04.09.2018 21:29:08] BDM|U-101: Enfield: When we had peace and neutrality with the Alster and Bering unioners, we had trouble telling them apart-
[04.09.2018 21:29:27] BDM|U-101: Enfield: From other cells... And when we thought we had stable communication with one leader, he was knifed in the back.
[04.09.2018 21:29:30] BDM|U-101: Enfield: And replaced.
[04.09.2018 21:29:48] BDM|U-101: Enfield: Next thing I know, they're opening fire on my ships...
[04.09.2018 21:29:56] BDM|U-101: Enfield: We had to call our NAP off.
[04.09.2018 21:30:37] LH~Leiden.Interloper: Interesting.
[04.09.2018 21:30:47] LH~Leiden.Interloper: Fortunately our relations have been much more stable.
[04.09.2018 21:31:02] BDM|U-101: Enfield: You're dealing with one cell as far as I recall.
[04.09.2018 21:31:14] BDM|U-101: Enfield: They have... Four or Five... None marked on their differences.
[04.09.2018 21:31:31] BDM|U-101: Enfield: One of them do include the downsized LWB.
[04.09.2018 21:31:31] LH~Leiden.Interloper: I think they admire us. They seek our counsel and help all the time. They know we are far more intelligent and useful than they
[04.09.2018 21:31:33] LH~Leiden.Interloper: could ever be.
[04.09.2018 21:32:02] BDM|U-101: *The entire crew seems to smile and smirk at your remark*
[04.09.2018 21:32:12] LH~Leiden.Interloper: So if you ever need help with the Unioners, I have the contacts and standing to help you.
[04.09.2018 21:32:17] BDM|U-101: Enfield: Hah, well said...
[04.09.2018 21:32:25] BDM|U-101: Enfield: No, the Unioners are now a...
[04.09.2018 21:32:41] BDM|U-101: Enfield: How can I word this...
[04.09.2018 21:32:48] LH~Leiden.Interloper: They say that you stabbed them in the back for Harmony.
[04.09.2018 21:32:51] BDM|U-101: Enfield: They've drawn too much attention to themseelves.
[04.09.2018 21:33:24] BDM|U-101: Enfield: Do you trust them on that statement? Because I'm not going to dictate what you do and don't believe.
[04.09.2018 21:34:46] BDM|U-101: Enfield: I had to question the deal itself when we first accepted it... After which I leared about "Buyers Remorse".
[04.09.2018 21:34:47] LH~Leiden.Interloper: You need not dictate. But your opinion on this matter is most welcome
[04.09.2018 21:35:30] BDM|U-101: Enfield: There was no real benefit to the deal, my men were still being shot by Unioners of other sects.
[04.09.2018 21:35:57] BDM|U-101: Enfield: The military and corporate fronts were still fighting them...
[04.09.2018 21:36:28] BDM|U-101: Enfield: Meanwhile I had looked at a real deal we could gain from when we negotiated peace with the Maltese Territoriees.
[04.09.2018 21:37:23] BDM|U-101: Enfield: We stopped them shooting our civilians, we're also fighting against the corporate-state of the GMG...
[04.09.2018 21:37:32] Death: GG-W-Deathadder was put out of action by GG-W-Raven (Gun).
[04.09.2018 21:37:33] BDM|U-101: Enfield: Joining forces against the Corsair syndicates.
[04.09.2018 21:37:43] BDM|U-101: Enfield: Not to mention a closed ring of exchanged technology.
[04.09.2018 21:38:19] LH~Leiden.Interloper: There is one more thing.
[04.09.2018 21:38:28] BDM|U-101: Enfield: Go on--
[04.09.2018 21:39:04] LH~Leiden.Interloper: They claim that you prioritize resources and men on the Unioners instead of RHA which is a much greater threat to the
[04.09.2018 21:39:08] LH~Leiden.Interloper: Bundesrepublik.
[04.09.2018 21:40:02] BDM|U-101: Enfield: Amazing... They should really take up employment in the BDM's propaganda department.
[04.09.2018 21:40:07] BDM|U-101: Enfield: If we had one...
[04.09.2018 21:40:11] BDM|U-101: Enfield: Anyhow, no--
[04.09.2018 21:40:24] LH~Leiden.Interloper: I see.
[04.09.2018 21:40:26] BDM|U-101: Enfield: The Hessians have from what we've observed, retreated into the Omegas.
[04.09.2018 21:41:00] BDM|U-101: Enfield: Their forces in the northern sector of Rheinland consisting of Frankfurt, Munich and Sigma-15 have all but-
[04.09.2018 21:41:03] BDM|U-101: Enfield: Vanished.
[04.09.2018 21:41:27] LH~Leiden.Interloper: Well, thank you for your input. We don't appreciate being lied too.
[04.09.2018 21:41:37] BDM|U-101: Enfield: The problem is though-
[04.09.2018 21:41:54] BDM|U-101: Enfield: To their word... They still operate in heavily patrolled sectors of Das Buro.
[04.09.2018 21:42:33] BDM|U-101: Enfield: Notably Hamburg, Neu-Berlin, Frankfurt, Munich, Sigmas...
[04.09.2018 21:42:47] BDM|U-101: Enfield: Honestly, they've decided to set themselves up in hot-zones.
[04.09.2018 21:43:00] BDM|U-101: Enfield: Maybe the don't know... But I doubt it.
[04.09.2018 21:43:11] BDM|U-101: Enfield: *Cough* Maybe they don't know.
[04.09.2018 21:43:21] LH~Leiden.Interloper: What's your view on the UN - Harmony conflict?
[04.09.2018 21:43:36] LH~Leiden.Interloper: Is it in your interests for this to continue as long as possible or you prefer peace?
[04.09.2018 21:43:50] BDM|U-101: Enfield: Harmony's victory would be in favour of the Republik...
[04.09.2018 21:44:37] BDM|U-101: Enfield: Not only would they cause a choke on the unioners safe zones... They'd have to return to the heavily--
[04.09.2018 21:45:01] BDM|U-101: Enfield: Military and policed enforced areas of Rheinland... Making them watch their steps.
[04.09.2018 21:45:23] BDM|U-101: Enfield: But Harmony would still ensure a buffer zone exists between the Republik of Rheinland and Liberty...
[04.09.2018 21:45:29] LH~Leiden.Interloper: And how is that in your interests?
[04.09.2018 21:45:52] LH~Leiden.Interloper: Don't you prefer for them to stay in Bering and raid Texas frequently instead of focusing solely on Rheinland core worlds?
[04.09.2018 21:46:09] BDM|U-101: Enfield: Actually...
[04.09.2018 21:46:37] BDM|U-101: Enfield: We've gone over a lot, and it seems that their growing strength of Pasifica have allowed their cell to-
[04.09.2018 21:47:06] BDM|U-101: Enfield: Sustain attacks not just on-level, but are actually increasing within the Republik.
[04.09.2018 21:47:29] BDM|U-101: Enfield: Like a... Growing bee hive, more bee's means more go out to... "Raid for pollen."
[04.09.2018 21:47:53] BDM|U-101: Enfield: Honestly, we left a problem unchecked... And it grew.
[04.09.2018 21:49:24] LH~Leiden.Interloper: I see your angle, though I think my point is still valid.
[04.09.2018 21:49:41] LH~Leiden.Interloper: So I understand you favor for this conflict to continue and hopefully with a UN victory
[04.09.2018 21:50:15] BDM|U-101: Enfield: With a UN victory?
[04.09.2018 21:50:28] LH~Leiden.Interloper: My apologies, I meant with Harmony victory.
[04.09.2018 21:50:38] LH~Leiden.Interloper: There is one more implication which you seem to forget, however.
[04.09.2018 21:50:38] BDM|U-101: Enfield: It is much preferred.
[04.09.2018 21:50:47] LH~Leiden.Interloper: A very important one, in fact.
[04.09.2018 21:51:32] BDM|U-101: Enfield: Go on.
[04.09.2018 21:51:54] LH~Leiden.Interloper: Do you remember the Hamburg Gate incident in Hudson system?
[04.09.2018 21:52:09] BDM|U-101: Enfield: Mhmm...
[04.09.2018 21:52:24] LH~Leiden.Interloper: A disaster which was about to ruin Hamburg and was avoided at the last moment, thanks to our leaks in the press?
[04.09.2018 21:52:50] LH~Leiden.Interloper: And the Gate was properly sealed and deactivated before it collapsed into a singularity?
[04.09.2018 21:53:06] BDM|U-101: Enfield: To ensure that a massive singularity wouldn't rupture the Liberty/Rheinland corridor?
[04.09.2018 21:53:16] LH~Leiden.Interloper: *nods*
[04.09.2018 21:54:34] LH~Leiden.Interloper: Ageira and DSE were the only ones who identified the problem before it was too late. And they were about to withhold the
[04.09.2018 21:55:03] LH~Leiden.Interloper: information to determine if the disaster would struck Liberty's side or your side. If they were certain it would hit you,
[04.09.2018 21:55:08] LH~Leiden.Interloper: they would have kept it secret.
[04.09.2018 21:55:34] LH~Leiden.Interloper: Instead we stepped in and brought this huge issue to the public eye. An issue which laid the first foundations of cooperation
[04.09.2018 21:55:41] LH~Leiden.Interloper: between the two Houses -- and ultimately peace.
[04.09.2018 21:56:21] LH~Leiden.Interloper: I believe that if one side starts losing badly -- which will happen once one side eventually prevails -- they will try to burn
[04.09.2018 21:57:03] LH~Leiden.Interloper: the ground behind them, in order to avoid giving the prize to the victor. And the best way they could pull such scheme is by
[04.09.2018 21:57:12] LH~Leiden.Interloper: sabotaging the gates in Bering.
[04.09.2018 21:57:36] BDM|U-101: Enfield: You mean Liberty cutting off said gates?
[04.09.2018 21:57:53] BDM|U-101: Enfield: I would imagine a UN retreat into Texas would be death sentance.
[04.09.2018 21:58:12] LH~Leiden.Interloper: I mean Unioners planting explosives to the Hamburg gate.
[04.09.2018 21:58:39] BDM|U-101: Enfield: The Bering gate in Hamburg...
[04.09.2018 21:58:48] BDM|U-101: Enfield: Hmm-
[04.09.2018 21:58:49] LH~Leiden.Interloper: Which will destabilize the jump gate's singularity...
[04.09.2018 21:59:07] BDM|U-101: Enfield: That is something that is of concern...
[04.09.2018 21:59:26] BDM|U-101: Enfield: But if that was to happen, I'd imagine the death toll would be high and--
[04.09.2018 21:59:39] BDM|U-101: Enfield: A massive publicity loss for the Unioners themselves.
[04.09.2018 21:59:41] LH~Leiden.Interloper: The Unioners are bracing for total war. They lost 1/3 of their population in Harmony's NEMP strike on Pacifica
[04.09.2018 21:59:56] LH~Leiden.Interloper: Perhaps even Harmony might pull this off, if the Unioners instead defeat them.
[04.09.2018 22:00:16] LH~Leiden.Interloper: They're both preparing for total war and are capabling of everything, I fear.
[04.09.2018 22:00:38] BDM|U-101: Enfield: Highly doubful, if what Harmony are... Renegade Liberty Navy assets who fight against injustice.
[04.09.2018 22:00:47] LH~Leiden.Interloper: So I want to know if that matter concerns you, because there are solutions.
[04.09.2018 22:01:16] LH~Leiden.Interloper: A dark matter storm hitting Hamburg would be more disastrous than a thousand years of Unioner raiding could ever be.
[04.09.2018 22:01:51] BDM|U-101: Enfield: Indeed It would be...
[04.09.2018 22:02:34] BDM|U-101: Enfield: But a hive of suspected corporately supported terrorists, whos actions conflict their stated goals.
[04.09.2018 22:02:42] BDM|U-101: Enfield: Like un-predicatable rats...
[04.09.2018 22:03:09] BDM|U-101: Enfield: What would stop them performing something just as catastrophic for satisfaction of a terror statement.
[04.09.2018 22:03:15] BDM|U-101: Enfield: They gassed Alster...
[04.09.2018 22:03:36] LH~Leiden.Interloper: I believe there isn't a more qualified person in Rheinland to weigh both dangers and determine which one is preferable
[04.09.2018 22:03:42] LH~Leiden.Interloper: than you, the Buro's Direktor.
[04.09.2018 22:04:15] LH~Leiden.Interloper: A potential black hole anomaly in Hamburg's borders or the Unioner threat of Bering.
[04.09.2018 22:04:25] BDM|U-101: Enfield: Thats because I have to sometimes take morals and politics out the equasion and just look at statistics.
[04.09.2018 22:04:59] BDM|U-101: Enfield: Again, when does a Unioner hive in Bering start to expand into a hive into Hamburg itself.
[04.09.2018 22:05:01] LH~Leiden.Interloper: I do not wish you to force you to decide right now. Which is better.
[04.09.2018 22:05:19] BDM|U-101: Enfield: Again, the Unioners are unpredictable...
[04.09.2018 22:05:21] LH~Leiden.Interloper: I am just stating what you could do in each case.
[04.09.2018 22:06:02] LH~Leiden.Interloper: If you believe that the Unioners would never try to destabilize the Hamburg JG upon their defeat from Harmony, then
[04.09.2018 22:06:15] LH~Leiden.Interloper: by all means support Harmony in their recognition efforts.
[04.09.2018 22:06:17] LH~Leiden.Interloper: ---
[04.09.2018 22:06:37] BDM|U-101: Enfield: Hmph...
[04.09.2018 22:06:56] LH~Leiden.Interloper: However, if you believe that there is even a 5% chance for a dark matter storm scenario on the borders of Hamburg, you should
[04.09.2018 22:07:05] LH~Leiden.Interloper: cut all contact with Harmony.
[04.09.2018 22:07:15] BDM|U-101: Enfield: Agreed,
[04.09.2018 22:07:31] LH~Leiden.Interloper: We can take care matters afterwards and I can assure you that I will stabilize Bering for you.
[04.09.2018 22:07:54] BDM|U-101: Enfield: One thing still bothers me heavily...
[04.09.2018 22:08:32] BDM|U-101: Enfield: If... The Unioners re-take the path of 801A.S. And they were to find themselves working with the Rote Hessians again-
[04.09.2018 22:08:39] BDM|U-101: Enfield: What would you do?
[04.09.2018 22:09:14] BDM|U-101: Enfield: If I recall, just like me... We're both avid opponents to the disgusting way of Communism.
[04.09.2018 22:09:25] LH~Leiden.Interloper: Well.. we don't have a personal stake on such a development. Our relations with the Hessians are quite neutral and
[04.09.2018 22:09:47] LH~Leiden.Interloper: that's because they're too far away from Liberty. We won't gain anything from a UN-RHA relationship or lose.
[04.09.2018 22:10:16] BDM|U-101: Enfield: And what of the Coalition sects?
[04.09.2018 22:10:24] BDM|U-101: Enfield: We had a discussion about that earlier.
[04.09.2018 22:10:29] LH~Leiden.Interloper: We purge Coalition where we find them.
[04.09.2018 22:10:34] LH~Leiden.Interloper: wherever*
[04.09.2018 22:11:05] BDM|U-101: Enfield: *Nods slowly* Good...
[04.09.2018 22:11:15] LH~Leiden.Interloper: In their latest fleet attack in Texas, we didn't hit Liberty Navy but promptly destroyed the communists.
[04.09.2018 22:11:30] BDM|U-101: Enfield: That is most appreciated...
[04.09.2018 22:11:47] LH~Leiden.Interloper: And that was quite unique you know. Siding with Liberty Navy.
[04.09.2018 22:11:55] LH~Leiden.Interloper: It's hard to even spell those words loudly.
[04.09.2018 22:12:14] BDM|U-101: Enfield: As flawed as a Capitalist and Democratic society can be... It's better than what the false "for the people"-
[04.09.2018 22:12:26] BDM|U-101: Enfield: Proposition that communism presents itself to be.
[04.09.2018 22:13:31] LH~Leiden.Interloper: It is a plague which infects a weak mind. We barely escaped Sol System from the Coalition, only to lose Sirius to them?
[04.09.2018 22:13:34] LH~Leiden.Interloper: Never.
[04.09.2018 22:14:04] BDM|U-101: Enfield: In the historical records... Communism has never put its people first.
[04.09.2018 22:14:35] LH~Leiden.Interloper: I believe their old leaders used to call their people as "useful idiots".
[04.09.2018 22:14:37] BDM|U-101: Enfield: It always empowers its poltical leaders... Or if it was born from a conflict... The Victorious War Lord Dictator.
[04.09.2018 22:15:28] LH~Leiden.Interloper: Speaking of the Coalition, I personally taunted one of their leading figures
[04.09.2018 22:15:36] BDM|U-101: Enfield: If you want my true opinion, Communism can never become truth... Until humans are taken out of the equasion.
[04.09.2018 22:15:52] BDM|U-101: Enfield: Good, a good taunt and insult helps release some steam.
[04.09.2018 22:16:04] LH~Leiden.Interloper: His name is Krsnik. If you ever wish to entrap them, it would be very easy to make them act on their emotions.
[04.09.2018 22:16:22] LH~Leiden.Interloper: In order words, I could help you there.
[04.09.2018 22:17:19] BDM|U-101: Enfield: We have our hands tied right now, the GMG, Kusari and Corsairs are presenting themselves as much as a problem-
[04.09.2018 22:17:49] BDM|U-101: Enfield: We still combat the Coalition where we can... But-
[04.09.2018 22:18:12] BDM|U-101: Enfield: We're... Pre-occupied with another threat.
[04.09.2018 22:19:20] LH~Leiden.Interloper: You mean Kusari right?
[04.09.2018 22:19:36] BDM|U-101: Enfield:... N-No.
[04.09.2018 22:19:50] BDM|U-101: Enfield: Lets just say the unioners have made themselves present in a system.
[04.09.2018 22:20:02] BDM|U-101: Enfield: That we certainly don't want them in.
[04.09.2018 22:20:31] LH~Leiden.Interloper: Which it is?
[04.09.2018 22:20:48] LH~Leiden.Interloper: No need to hide behind words, I have my own intelligence sources.
[04.09.2018 22:21:06] LH~Leiden.Interloper: And we are talking openly for some time now.
[04.09.2018 22:21:14] BDM|U-101: Enfield: Thuringia... We've had a massive mobilzation of forces there recently.
[04.09.2018 22:21:29] BDM|U-101: Enfield: A close and central territory to Rheinland.
[04.09.2018 22:23:02] LH~Leiden.Interloper: I see.
[04.09.2018 22:23:28] LH~Leiden.Interloper: I could talk to them about this system
[04.09.2018 22:23:42] LH~Leiden.Interloper: Convince them to focus their efforts in Texas instead?
[04.09.2018 22:23:55] LH~Leiden.Interloper: Would that be a generous gesture on behalf of the UN?
[04.09.2018 22:24:25] BDM|U-101: Enfield: Are our relations known to the UN?
[04.09.2018 22:25:34] LH~Leiden.Interloper: UN is known to guess many things.. things who one would wonder how they learned about.
[04.09.2018 22:25:53] BDM|U-101: Enfield: Then I suggest you don't tell them. If they do know of our relations.
[04.09.2018 22:25:54] LH~Leiden.Interloper: So whether they know about our relations or not at this point, it doesn't really matter.
[04.09.2018 22:26:14] LH~Leiden.Interloper: // also known as powergaming
[04.09.2018 22:26:23] BDM|U-101: Enfield: If they were advised to stay out on your behalf... It's going to look strange.
[04.09.2018 22:26:46] BDM|U-101: Enfield: If the Lane-Hackers have no interest of that space, then how would they know of the UN presence there.
[04.09.2018 22:26:59] BDM|U-101: Enfield: I highly doubt they're part of the Bering Cell anyhow.
[04.09.2018 22:27:21] LH~Leiden.Interloper: Okay.
[04.09.2018 22:27:22] BDM|U-101: Enfield: So it'll unfortunately be out of your control... They're possibly there for a reason.
[04.09.2018 22:27:30] LH~Leiden.Interloper: I have justification to reach out to BDM at this time
[04.09.2018 22:27:45] LH~Leiden.Interloper: Because of the war with Harmony
[04.09.2018 22:28:16] LH~Leiden.Interloper: So they won't be suspicious if I tell them to stop all operations in Thuringia
[04.09.2018 22:28:40] LH~Leiden.Interloper: In exchange for Harmony's diplomatic overtures to Rheinland reaching a dead end.
[04.09.2018 22:30:24] BDM|U-101: Enfield: Unfortunately... Harmony's diplomatic results with Rheinland don't rest on me alone.
[04.09.2018 22:30:35] BDM|U-101: Enfield: They've contacted the Bundestag... And have--
[04.09.2018 22:30:49] BDM|U-101: Enfield: Well, I can convice some senators... But not all.
[04.09.2018 22:30:52] LH~Leiden.Interloper: Well, you are a valuable advisor to the Bundestag.
[04.09.2018 22:31:03] LH~Leiden.Interloper: If you vouch against it, it will sway many votes, I believe.
[04.09.2018 22:31:44] BDM|U-101: Enfield: I will try...
[04.09.2018 22:31:50] LH~Leiden.Interloper: It is really up to you, if you want to strike such a deal. Totally off the record.
[04.09.2018 22:31:52] BDM|U-101: Enfield: *He huffs.*
[04.09.2018 22:32:07] BDM|U-101: Enfield: Right now, lets see which way the conflict goes.
[04.09.2018 22:32:17] BDM|U-101: Enfield: We've had little outside interference.
[04.09.2018 22:32:30] BDM|U-101: Enfield: And we've had little interference with their operations ourselves.
[04.09.2018 22:32:40] BDM|U-101: Enfield: When the Unioners complain about them being shot by Das Buro--
[04.09.2018 22:32:49] BDM|U-101: Enfield: Thats because they entered the republik themselves...
[04.09.2018 22:32:49] LH~Leiden.Interloper: I would prefer if I have a definitive answer on this before our meeting's conclusion.
[04.09.2018 22:32:58] LH~Leiden.Interloper: So I know where I stand, you see
[04.09.2018 22:33:19] BDM|U-101: Enfield: I stand on ensuring this conflict lasts...
[04.09.2018 22:33:34] BDM|U-101: Enfield: But if a victory were to occur... It would most certainly lean towards Harmony.
[04.09.2018 22:33:43] LH~Leiden.Interloper: I wouldn't have brought it up if it wasn't in BDM's interests. For as many folks as possible to stay away from Thuringia
[04.09.2018 22:33:47] BDM|U-101: Enfield: Despite implications of a "Detonating Jump-gate".
[04.09.2018 22:34:05] BDM|U-101: Enfield: By law, people are to stay away from Thuringia.
[04.09.2018 22:34:20] LH~Leiden.Interloper: Well, Unioners do not observe the law
[04.09.2018 22:34:24] BDM|U-101: Enfield: But hey, criminals do what they want these days...
[04.09.2018 22:34:27] BDM|U-101: Enfield: Or atleast try.
[04.09.2018 22:34:44] LH~Leiden.Interloper: So they need other.. ways to convince them so
[04.09.2018 22:34:51] BDM|U-101: Enfield: *He huffs*
[04.09.2018 22:35:14] BDM|U-101: Enfield: A'ight, listen... The reason why we want them out of Thuringia is that theres a suspected Nomad presence there.
[04.09.2018 22:35:27] BDM|U-101: Enfield: We can keep a track on agent's we've lost...
[04.09.2018 22:35:44] BDM|U-101: Enfield: So they don't 'come back' later to shoot us...
[04.09.2018 22:36:02] LH~Leiden.Interloper: Unioners are careless.
[04.09.2018 22:36:04] BDM|U-101: Enfield: But the Unioner presence there has us a little worried about what they're losing there...
[04.09.2018 22:36:14] BDM|U-101: Enfield: And we can't monitor ships we don't bug.
[04.09.2018 22:36:15] LH~Leiden.Interloper: They could be used or even get infected complicating matters even more.
[04.09.2018 22:36:22] BDM|U-101: Enfield: Exactly.
[04.09.2018 22:36:43] BDM|U-101: Enfield: Theres a reason the whole system is restricted... We lost a good amount of agents in the Purgee.
[04.09.2018 22:36:53] BDM|U-101: Enfield: *He coughs* Purge.
[04.09.2018 22:37:17] LH~Leiden.Interloper: Of course.
[04.09.2018 22:37:22] LH~Leiden.Interloper: I really pity your position
[04.09.2018 22:37:34] LH~Leiden.Interloper: You had a dramatic dilemma before to weigh in. Now this..
[04.09.2018 22:37:47] LH~Leiden.Interloper: I sometimes regret even making these options available to you.
[04.09.2018 22:38:19] BDM|U-101: Enfield: If the Unioners were to continue their presence in Thuringia, we don't know whats going back to Bering.
[04.09.2018 22:38:50] BDM|U-101: Enfield: Thats why we have authority to shoot anyone who enters said system without proper identification.
[04.09.2018 22:39:01] LH~Leiden.Interloper: If the Unioners are pushed out of Bering, their presence in Thuringia would naturally increase.
[04.09.2018 22:39:10] LH~Leiden.Interloper: And I don't think any deals would keep them out at that point
[04.09.2018 22:39:23] BDM|U-101: Enfield: Their presence is already growing.
[04.09.2018 22:39:32] BDM|U-101: Enfield: They've positioned a cruiser in the system.
[04.09.2018 22:39:44] BDM|U-101: Enfield: We've sighted it a few times, but it seems to move every so often.
[04.09.2018 22:39:54] BDM|U-101: Enfield: Sending agents out of any secured zone we have is risky.
[04.09.2018 22:39:59] LH~Leiden.Interloper: Could be reduced to a skeleton crew. Everyone re-assigned to Texas raid squadrons...
[04.09.2018 22:40:27] BDM|U-101: Enfield: Listen, if the Unioners went into Texas itself. It would be fine move.
[04.09.2018 22:41:06] BDM|U-101: Enfield: That would mean that Harmony gets Bering and we see a slower frequency of Unioners pouring into Hamburg.
[04.09.2018 22:41:12] BDM|U-101: Enfield: And its neighbouring systems.
[04.09.2018 22:41:31] LH~Leiden.Interloper: Unioners would never get a hold into Texas
[04.09.2018 22:41:53] LH~Leiden.Interloper: Raiding there is okay, but it is Hacker and Rogue territory. We would not allow it.
[04.09.2018 22:42:05] BDM|U-101: Enfield: I see, I see.
[04.09.2018 22:42:15] LH~Leiden.Interloper: If Unioners are pushed out of Bering, they're going to focus on Rheinland core systems including Thuringia.
[04.09.2018 22:42:36] LH~Leiden.Interloper: And perhaps even leave detonating jump gate behind them as present as well.
[04.09.2018 22:42:44] LH~Leiden.Interloper: a detonating*
[04.09.2018 22:42:55] BDM|U-101: Enfield: To be fair, that might be a good thing. Having them pushed back into Rheinland.
[04.09.2018 22:43:08] BDM|U-101: Enfield: Call it strange... But--
[04.09.2018 22:43:19] LH~Leiden.Interloper: That's something I didn't expect to hear. Yeah.
[04.09.2018 22:43:47] BDM|U-101: Enfield: With catastrophic losses in Bering, they'd have to resort to operating in heavily controlled territory.
[04.09.2018 22:44:00] LH~Leiden.Interloper: Heavily controlled?
[04.09.2018 22:44:05] BDM|U-101: Enfield: Rivalries with other competeing criminal syndicates.
[04.09.2018 22:44:11] BDM|U-101: Enfield: Oh, Controlled by the state.
[04.09.2018 22:44:16] LH~Leiden.Interloper: You already detailed the many war fronts you're into.
[04.09.2018 22:44:34] BDM|U-101: Enfield: And what if the Unioners were to secure a victory in Bering?
[04.09.2018 22:44:35] LH~Leiden.Interloper: At least in Bering and Texas, LN is 90% of the times involved.
[04.09.2018 22:44:47] BDM|U-101: Enfield: Wouldn't that result in another front itself?
[04.09.2018 22:45:22] LH~Leiden.Interloper: Right now LN keeps troops and spends resources to contain the Unioners, Rheinland doesn't have a "front" there.
[04.09.2018 22:45:43] BDM|U-101: Enfield: Again, what If the Unioners were to get a victory in Bering?
[04.09.2018 22:45:58] BDM|U-101: Enfield: They're a revolutionary front against the Republican shipping corporation.
[04.09.2018 22:46:02] LH~Leiden.Interloper: But if they fully return into Rheinland, then it's BDM, RM and RFP 100% who will have to do the job.
[04.09.2018 22:46:08] BDM|U-101: Enfield: Which I need to remind you, hold Alster shipyard...
[04.09.2018 22:46:20] BDM|U-101: Enfield: Rheinlands core logistical shipyard for economic stability.
[04.09.2018 22:46:30] BDM|U-101: Enfield: One they... Gassed.
[04.09.2018 22:47:13] LH~Leiden.Interloper: If they get a victory they would be exhausted, Mr Enfield.
[04.09.2018 22:47:41] LH~Leiden.Interloper: They would have no manpower or resources to be of significant threat to you. They'd resort to easy Texas raids and LN
[04.09.2018 22:47:55] LH~Leiden.Interloper: will mostly spend troops and resources to contain.
[04.09.2018 22:48:44] BDM|U-101: Enfield: *He rubs his eyes* Hmph... We keep tossing the table to see nothing at this point.
[04.09.2018 22:48:55] BDM|U-101: Enfield: Which is why I prefer the conflict to continue.
[04.09.2018 22:49:07] LH~Leiden.Interloper: Well, it was insightful to know where you stand.
[04.09.2018 22:49:20] LH~Leiden.Interloper: I think I already told you what you need to do in order to keep this going.
[04.09.2018 22:49:20] BDM|U-101: Enfield: I hope so, we're already deep in our knees.
[04.09.2018 22:49:35] LH~Leiden.Interloper: Is there anything else I could do for you?
[04.09.2018 22:49:51] BDM|U-101: Enfield: That depends, if you can convince the Unioners to consolidate their forces and subtract their influence from-
[04.09.2018 22:49:56] BDM|U-101: Enfield: Elsewhere...
[04.09.2018 22:50:26] BDM|U-101: Enfield: We're going to continue to see Unioners patrol themselves in sensitive and critical environments.
[04.09.2018 22:50:30] LH~Leiden.Interloper: I think I already mentioned my confidence that I could accomplish such feat. And what I would need from you in return.
[04.09.2018 22:50:57] BDM|U-101: Enfield: I'm not the Bundestag...
[04.09.2018 22:51:13] BDM|U-101: Enfield: And I don't hold voting rights myself...
[04.09.2018 22:51:24] LH~Leiden.Interloper: Let's not repeat ourselves. You can sway votes.
[04.09.2018 22:51:39] BDM|U-101: Enfield: Again, I can try.
[04.09.2018 22:51:49] LH~Leiden.Interloper: Bundestag representatives listen to your words as their chief intelligence officer.
[04.09.2018 22:52:11] BDM|U-101: Enfield: /But they also listen to the donations of the corporate-conglomorates./
[04.09.2018 22:52:12] LH~Leiden.Interloper: If you tell them there is a potential threat from the jump gate, they will hear you.
[04.09.2018 22:52:40] BDM|U-101: Enfield: I will see what I can do... Right now my assets are depleated due to out--
[04.09.2018 22:53:04] BDM|U-101: Enfield: Confusing relationship between the corporations.
[04.09.2018 22:53:53] LH~Leiden.Interloper: So... Shall I tell the Unioners to take out all their forces from Thuringia and bring them to Texas in exchange for your suppor
[04.09.2018 22:54:01] LH~Leiden.Interloper: t in the matter of Harmony?
[04.09.2018 22:54:27] BDM|U-101: Enfield: Harmony... Hmph--
[04.09.2018 22:54:29] LH~Leiden.Interloper: I have no personal stakes for this to happen but if you think it would be for the best, I will make it happen.
[04.09.2018 22:54:53] LH~Leiden.Interloper: Yes, I mean advising the Bundestag representatives against recognition of Harmony.
[04.09.2018 22:55:15] BDM|U-101: Enfield: I grind my teeth on this Issue Yoshida.
[04.09.2018 22:55:26] LH~Leiden.Interloper: It's not an easy one, I agree.
[04.09.2018 22:55:40] BDM|U-101: Enfield: But I'm going to have to say-- No.
[04.09.2018 22:55:49] LH~Leiden.Interloper: Very well
[04.09.2018 22:56:02] BDM|U-101: Enfield: We can't keep flipping things with the Unioners.
[04.09.2018 22:56:21] BDM|U-101: Enfield: They're unpredicatable... Almost uncontrolable.
[04.09.2018 22:56:35] LH~Leiden.Interloper: Since you declined, I can now tell you that I would have taken the deal if I were you.
[04.09.2018 22:57:08] LH~Leiden.Interloper: You wouldn't make any promise, the Bundestag could still recognize Harmony and still abide by the agreement.
[04.09.2018 22:57:11] BDM|U-101: Enfield: I understand... So right now this means I'll have to deploy agents to the gate in Hamburg.
[04.09.2018 22:57:35] LH~Leiden.Interloper: You were just giving a promise to sway votes.
[04.09.2018 22:57:59] LH~Leiden.Interloper: Anyway. I believe my insights on the situation have been helpful. I believe you should, yes.
[04.09.2018 22:58:18] LH~Leiden.Interloper: Do you wish perhaps to spend the night in Leiden?
[04.09.2018 22:58:34] LH~Leiden.Interloper: You will be transferred to my ship and come unannounced onboard.
[04.09.2018 22:58:51] BDM|U-101: Enfield: Your insight has been helpful, but it has opened a lot of other variables.
[04.09.2018 22:59:18] BDM|U-101: Enfield: And I'll decline, I think uniformed agents on Leiden might cause a stirr among your associates.
[04.09.2018 22:59:19] LH~Leiden.Interloper: The hour is late and I would be a terrible host if I didn't offer you a fine suite to watch the storm spectacle while thinking
[04.09.2018 22:59:22] LH~Leiden.Interloper: of what we discussed.
[04.09.2018 22:59:52] BDM|U-101: Enfield: We have twin shifts flying this vessel, but we'll make our way to the Maltese territories.
[04.09.2018 23:00:13] BDM|U-101: Enfield: I think we can get to Cali within the hour.
[04.09.2018 23:00:32] LH~Leiden.Interloper: Ahh of course. Bad habits cannot be stopped even after finding employment in the Buro.
[04.09.2018 23:00:39] LH~Leiden.Interloper: Or even becoming its vaunted Direktor.
[04.09.2018 23:00:45] BDM|U-101: Enfield: Funny.
[04.09.2018 23:01:03] LH~Leiden.Interloper: You have a colorful past Mr Enfield. And you know I know lots of it.
[04.09.2018 23:01:29] BDM|U-101: Enfield: Yeah well, things broke or I lost interest. That and my opinions have been changed.
[04.09.2018 23:02:09] LH~Leiden.Interloper: One last thing before you leave. It is "Mr. Yoshida" or "Professor Yoshida". A guest should be respectful to his host.
[04.09.2018 23:02:44] LH~Leiden.Interloper: Your secrets are well preserved with me. I had many opportunities to use them against you but I never had such an interest.
[04.09.2018 23:03:00] BDM|U-101: Enfield: Huh- Well pardon me then, Professor Yoshida.
[04.09.2018 23:03:36] LH~Leiden.Interloper: Sometimes being too friendly makes people forget one's status. No offence taken Direktor.
[04.09.2018 23:04:02] BDM|U-101: Enfield: Honestly, Enfield or Geoff is enough for me. I don't like a...
[04.09.2018 23:04:14] BDM|U-101: Enfield: I never really like a... Whats the word--
[04.09.2018 23:04:39] BDM|U-101: Eric: God-Complex...
[04.09.2018 23:04:43] LH~Leiden.Interloper: What about Puppetmaster. Your predecessor relished on me calling him like this.
[04.09.2018 23:05:16] BDM|U-101: Enfield: Puppetmaster... Puppet... Master...
[04.09.2018 23:06:04] BDM|U-101: Enfield: *He crosses his legs* I'm not too sure... Generally Herr Direktor is what I go by.
[04.09.2018 23:06:10] LH~Leiden.Interloper: Do you need perhaps some cardamine? Helps with the mind.
[04.09.2018 23:06:15] BDM|U-101: Enfield: Direktor Enfield, I don't mind it.
[04.09.2018 23:06:20] BDM|U-101: Enfield: Oh, no- No...
[04.09.2018 23:06:28] BDM|U-101: Enfield: Not in this life.
[04.09.2018 23:06:48] LH~Leiden.Interloper: So you are walking, sleeping and talking with a mask all the time while on Malta?
[04.09.2018 23:06:50] BDM|U-101: Enfield: Your offer is appreciated, but its not for me.
[04.09.2018 23:07:14] LH~Leiden.Interloper: Must be a torture. Like a sick man.
[04.09.2018 23:07:36] BDM|U-101: Enfield: There are some buildings with filtered air...
[04.09.2018 23:07:50] BDM|U-101: Enfield: And some stations, obviously due to junker a trader presence.
[04.09.2018 23:08:04] LH~Leiden.Interloper: Hah, most junkers are on the drug already
[04.09.2018 23:08:17] LH~Leiden.Interloper: Anyway.
[04.09.2018 23:08:25] LH~Leiden.Interloper: Please allow me to escort you out of the cloud at least.
[04.09.2018 23:08:35] BDM|U-101: Enfield: Yeah... *he rubs his eyes again.* I think its about time.
[04.09.2018 23:08:38] LH~Leiden.Interloper: The radiation has taken quite some damage on our ship's equipments already
[04.09.2018 23:08:58] BDM|U-101: Enfield: We're going though Kyushu...
[04.09.2018 23:09:07] BDM|U-101: Enfield: So we should be alright.
[04.09.2018 23:10:10] LH~Leiden.Interloper: Have a good night Mr Enfield.
[04.09.2018 23:10:48] LH~Leiden.Interloper: From all our talks I think this was the most interesting and fruitful. I hope you share this feeling as well.
[04.09.2018 23:14:43] BDM|U-101: Enfield: I certainly do, but right now... I need to give my brain a rest.
[04.09.2018 23:14:53] BDM|U-101: Enfield: I have a lot on my plate as it is.
