Two systems strike me as good spots to relocate our base. Reading through the Map-Data reports lead me to scout out Tau-37 once again. Calming system, nearby freeport with all necessities, only two ways out of the system. Then a Starfleet capital ship appeared, a good chance to tell them of what the Starfliers are doing in Tau-37...

Code:
[14.02.2022 00:04:21] '\S/'Pulsar: Halpert: Now you look familiar...
[14.02.2022 00:04:48] HS>Reconquista: I am Alpha Conqueror Eduardo Montalban of the Malta Hyperspace Starfleet. Identify yourself freelancer.
[14.02.2022 00:05:07] '\S/'Pulsar: Halpert: Sarissa-Class, eh? Suppose that's good for me.
[14.02.2022 00:05:16] '\S/'Pulsar: Halpert: Halpert Kennedy of the Starfliers.
[14.02.2022 00:05:30] HS>Reconquista: I assure you, suitable interceptors can be scrambled in a moment's notice.
[14.02.2022 00:05:41] HS>Reconquista: You are on the borders of Maltese space, what is your buisness?
[14.02.2022 00:06:03] '\S/'Pulsar: Halpert: Scouting. For a mass relocation project.
[14.02.2022 00:06:19] HS>Reconquista: Mass relocation?
[14.02.2022 00:06:39] '\S/'Pulsar: Halpert: Ah, hold a second... Starfleet, right? This is perfect.
[14.02.2022 00:07:09] HS>Reconquista: Explain
[14.02.2022 00:07:23] '\S/'Pulsar: Halpert: I'm sure you know Starflier Base is located in Kepler, yes?
[14.02.2022 00:07:41] HS>Reconquista: Yes, I visited it myself a few months ago.
[14.02.2022 00:08:00] '\S/'Pulsar: Halpert: We've spent months in that hell of a storm. A few of us getting irradiated living there.
[14.02.2022 00:08:28] '\S/'Pulsar: Halpert: My job out here is to find a suitable spot to relocate our base of operations.
[14.02.2022 00:08:49] HS>Reconquista: Interesting
[14.02.2022 00:09:00] HS>Reconquista: And you're thinking of Tau-37?
[14.02.2022 00:09:20] '\S/'Pulsar: Halpert: I've found two suitable systems. Tau-37 is one of them.
[14.02.2022 00:10:06] '\S/'Pulsar: Halpert: I've seen the comms about not entering the northern jump hole, be assured that will continue to be respected.
[14.02.2022 00:10:31] HS>Reconquista: Good. What sort of visitors do you expect at your base?
[14.02.2022 00:10:43] '\S/'Pulsar: Halpert: Though, since you're here. It's a chance to get your... opinion on the matter.
[14.02.2022 00:10:51] HS>Reconquista: We would look dimly upon it becoming a staging ground for bounty hunters and their ilk
[14.02.2022 00:11:49] '\S/'Pulsar: Halpert: Hmm, I'll relay all conditions to Leon, for now we'll get everything out.
[14.02.2022 00:12:05] '\S/'Pulsar: Halpert: So, restricted docking access for certain groups?
[14.02.2022 00:12:55] HS>Reconquista: We cannot come to a formal agreement here, but I believe we can come to an understanding. To be formalized if you do intend
[14.02.2022 00:12:58] HS>Reconquista: to relocate here
[14.02.2022 00:13:21] '\S/'Pulsar: Halpert: From our side, all we want is to get out of the storm. How do you propose we proceed?
[14.02.2022 00:13:49] HS>Reconquista: We would request docking rights for our personel, to facilitate inspections, and a restriction on some commodities. Such as
[14.02.2022 00:13:54] HS>Reconquista: that ageria trash.
[14.02.2022 00:14:26] HS>Reconquista: But no monetary "tax" like the house governments would impose.
[14.02.2022 00:14:39] '\S/'Pulsar: Halpert: I don't need Leon to agree to that. We don't sell any material goods anyways.
[14.02.2022 00:15:32] HS>Reconquista: That simplifies mattters.
[14.02.2022 00:16:03] '\S/'Pulsar: Halpert: Any other main conditions? What you have mentioned so far is very easy to work with.
[14.02.2022 00:16:31] HS>Reconquista: Those are the major points.
[14.02.2022 00:16:44] '\S/'Pulsar: Halpert: I will say, certain wings of our base will be unavailable during these inspections.
[14.02.2022 00:17:03] '\S/'Pulsar: Halpert: Proprietary hardware, information and the like.
[14.02.2022 00:17:21] HS>Reconquista: That is acceptable
[14.02.2022 00:18:21] '\S/'Pulsar: Halpert: I may have Leon contact Starfleet for additional discussions.
[14.02.2022 00:18:54] HS>Reconquista: We will watch for the message.
[14.02.2022 00:18:59] '\S/'Pulsar: Halpert: But, good to see this isn't shot down. Peaceful system for a peaceful group.
[14.02.2022 00:19:50] HS>Reconquista: It's peaceful now. I'd reccomend staying clear of the Lorraine jump hole. The Gauls have been quiet lately, but they may not
[14.02.2022 00:19:52] HS>Reconquista: stay that way
[14.02.2022 00:20:18] '\S/'Pulsar: Halpert: I'll make a record of that. Thank you.
[14.02.2022 00:21:32] HS>Reconquista: Is that all you need?
[14.02.2022 00:21:34] '\S/'Pulsar: Halpert: I'll forward this to our base, and expect a message soon.
[14.02.2022 00:22:03] HS>Reconquista: Very well. Fly safe
[14.02.2022 00:22:20] '\S/'Pulsar: Halpert: Mmmhmm. Godspeed, Montalban.
