I launched from Houston on my personal Sutinga and was greeted by three UNIONERS of all people (UN|Wilhelm.Rosenberg, Reichsbahn-Class.5 and UN|Stoppable).
Besides knowing their reputation in Rheinland (and the pilots being held in their cargo hold) I decided to investigate their intentions rather than just go shooting. I was about to broker the release of the lawful prisoners despite being in unfavorable odds when 3 Xeno pilots showed up. I was lucky that the Zephyr came to assistance but both of us got disabled in the 3v3v2 fight.
I advise close inspection on Hudson to be considered for future plans, despite our efforts to secure Cortez. We might want to coordinate operations with the other segments of LN or even some Intel ops with LIA.

46th|Tilt: wow wow wow
2020-11-01 17:53:48 SMT
UN|Wilhelm.Rosenberg: Ah! Good evening herr officer.
2020-11-01 17:53:49 SMT
46th|Tilt: unexpected visitor, i see
2020-11-01 17:53:52 SMT
UN|Wilhelm.Rosenberg: A lovely day for flying, ja?
2020-11-01 17:54:46 SMT
46th|Tilt: didn't know you had business here
2020-11-01 17:55:26 SMT
46th|Tilt: care to tell a lowly Navy Admiral like myself what are unioners doign in texas?
2020-11-01 17:55:52 SMT
46th|Tilt: and with police and naval pilots no less
2020-11-01 17:55:54 SMT
Reichsbahn-Class.52: They send Admirals out still?
2020-11-01 17:55:56 SMT
UN|Wilhelm.Rosenberg: Oh you know. A bit of taxation for what could very well be the next step for the Rheinland.
2020-11-01 17:56:13 SMT
UN|Wilhelm.Rosenberg: At least, that's how my gruppenfuher puts it.
2020-11-01 17:56:34 SMT
Reichsbahn-Class.52: Guten Tag.
2020-11-01 17:56:55 SMT
46th|Tilt: Well, That's unexpected
2020-11-01 17:57:11 SMT
Reichsbahn-Class.52: Same to you Libertonian.
2020-11-01 17:57:44 SMT
46th|Tilt: See, I don't see how disabling liberty ships and carrying liberty escape pods in liberty ins considered proper diplomacy
2020-11-01 17:57:54 SMT
Reichsbahn-Class.52: Libertonian militar in a Renzu ship is quite odd.
2020-11-01 17:57:58 SMT
UN|Wilhelm.Rosenberg: Ah! Herr gruppenfuher, glad you could make it for this bit of banter.
2020-11-01 17:58:03 SMT

UN|Wilhelm.Rosenberg: Apparently out for a cruise in their personal vehicle.
2020-11-01 17:58:25 SMT
UN|Stoppable: G'day mate.
2020-11-01 17:59:05 SMT
46th|Tilt: But I'm willing to consider it a misunderstanding if you kindly jettison the lawful pilots just doing their jobs
2020-11-01 17:59:33 SMT
46th|Tilt: i mean, not like you want all of liberty to think you are hostile to them, ja?
2020-11-01 17:59:50 SMT
UN|Wilhelm.Rosenberg: Gruppenfuher?
2020-11-01 17:59:53 SMT
UN|Stoppable: Why the "ja". Are you makin' fun Admiral?
2020-11-01 18:00:16 SMT
UN|Stoppable: Do you find this funny? Should we consider this a personal attack?
2020-11-01 18:00:19 SMT
46th|Tilt: I try to learn as many languages as I can when dealing with fine gentlemen from other houses
2020-11-01 18:00:41 SMT

Reichsbahn-Class.52: Already did Libertonian. Say is Fleet Admiral Rohj Teerin still around?
2020-11-01 18:01:00 SMT
UN|Stoppable: Ko-Chi-ni-what?
2020-11-01 18:01:02 SMT
UN|Wilhelm.Rosenberg: An admiral calling a dockworker like me a gentleman? What a fine day this is.

2020-11-01 18:01:11 SMT
UN|Wilhelm.Rosenberg: I can't wait to tell mother. She'll be thrilled.

46th|Tilt: not usually heard around here
2020-11-01 18:02:09 SMT
UN|Wilhelm.Rosenberg: Ja, only when that Xeno passed by though.
2020-11-01 18:02:28 SMT
UN|Stoppable: *Laughs* That explains it then.
2020-11-01 18:02:51 SMT
Reichsbahn-Class.52: You are different Libertonian from the old guard.
2020-11-01 18:03:28 SMT
46th|Tilt: So, as much as talking about culture differences and how good your bier tastes, protocol requires me to ask again
2020-11-01 18:03:59 SMT
46th|LNS-Zephyr: Contact on scanners
2020-11-01 18:04:05 SMT

2020-11-01 18:04:20 SMT
UN|Wilhelm.Rosenberg: *Distant muffled yelling* Ja, these pilots of yours are awfully loud. At this rate I'd almost be willing to throw them at you.
2020-11-01 18:04:46 SMT
Reichsbahn-Class.52: Herr uh.... Admiral... Lacking of name..
2020-11-01 18:04:48 SMT

46th|Tilt: But I can assure you the pizza is great
2020-11-01 18:05:28 SMT
Reichsbahn-Class.52: Admiral Tilt? A libertonian pinball machine is an Admiral?
