'Sup.

Good work on handling that Rheinwehr problem. The sooner they learn to respect what's ours, the better.

So, the IMG has come out to play the guy with a badge. We've had no dealings with them before - we usually stick to hitting House corps only. Taxing the taxman, so to speak. But if they want to go ahead and make us their problem, so be it. We've enough guns for everyone.

Anyway, I've had a little outing to New Berlin with Ulfhedinn as my wingman. The guy's a crack pilot - wouldn't have made out it without him.

We barely had time to get to our usual spot before a Bundschuh pilot showed up, and then a whole bunch of taxmen. Now, I don't know if the heat was onto him or what, but we didn't have time to chat before the badges started their usual drivel. I do hate the righteous types.

[25.01.2023 20:53:23] HRZ~Terpentin: Hail, Bundschuh vessel.
[25.01.2023 20:53:26] HRZ~Ulfhedinn: Yo- ah, one of them activists.
[25.01.2023 20:53:39] NWB|Paul.Botzler: Good day. You appear to be part of the recent pirate group I have heard about.
[25.01.2023 20:53:54] HRZ~Ulfhedinn: Hear that? We're moving up in the world!
[25.01.2023 20:54:00] Hitman-76: Lock: ... Uh ...
[25.01.2023 20:54:07] HRZ~Terpentin: Yeah, I was wondering. Does handing out pamphlets on university campus actually do anything?
[25.01.2023 20:54:09] HRZ~Ulfhedinn: And the activist brought in some heat.
[25.01.2023 20:54:13] HRZ~Terpentin: Oh.
[25.01.2023 20:54:16] HRZ~Terpentin: Well, shit.
[25.01.2023 20:54:22] Hitman-76: Lock: This is a surprise.
[25.01.2023 20:54:27] RNC-Wodan: What do I have here?
[25.01.2023 20:54:32] HRZ~Ulfhedinn: Deez.
[25.01.2023 20:54:33] RNC-Wodan: Troublemakers again?
[25.01.2023 20:54:37] Hitman-76: Lock: Bunch of pirates it looks like.
[25.01.2023 20:55:03] HRZ~Terpentin: Bit heavy-handed, huh?
[25.01.2023 20:55:12] HRZ~Ulfhedinn: Pirates? Terpentin. Are we pirates?
[25.01.2023 20:55:22] HRZ~Terpentin: Yarr, matey.
[25.01.2023 20:55:27] HRZ~Ulfhedinn: Shit.
[25.01.2023 20:55:30] [RM]Fl-Frieda.Voigt: Ah, contacts.
[25.01.2023 20:55:32] RNC-Wodan: I don't think you should be trying to interrupt civilian ships here
[25.01.2023 20:55:32] [RM]Obl-Trau.Habermeyer: Now look at that.
[25.01.2023 20:55:39] Hitman-76: Lock: What in the world... half the entire fleet is here.
[25.01.2023 20:55:49] HRZ~Terpentin: We've been set up.
[25.01.2023 20:55:53] [RM]Fl-Frieda.Voigt: What a glorious sight.
[25.01.2023 20:56:03] [RM]Fl-Frieda.Voigt: Not so much for you.
[25.01.2023 20:56:10] HRZ~Ulfhedinn: Start moving Terpentin. They're not here to donate to the poor or something.
[25.01.2023 20:56:13] [RM]Bmn-Jurgen.Fischer: Oh, well.......
[25.01.2023 20:56:14] [RM]Fl-Ignatz.Schwan: This is the Rheinland Military, please stand-by and submit to inspection.
[25.01.2023 20:56:17] [RM]Obl-Trau.Habermeyer: Cut your engines.
[25.01.2023 20:56:23] [RM]Obl-Trau.Habermeyer: Disrupt and apprehend....
[25.01.2023 20:56:35] Hitman-76: Lock: *chuckles* This should be fun to watch.
[25.01.2023 20:56:39] HRZ~Ulfhedinn: You woman, you're going down first.
[25.01.2023 20:56:39] RNC-Wodan: We are on standby mode. Crew, no need to engage
[25.01.2023 20:56:41] Ludwig.Shafen: I'll sit this one out, you have more than enough support.
[25.01.2023 20:56:41] HRZ~Terpentin: Well, now what?
[25.01.2023 20:56:41] [RM]Fl-Ignatz.Schwan: Civilian ships, this is your last warning.
[25.01.2023 20:56:57] [RM]Fl-Frieda.Voigt: I suggest you stand down instead.
[25.01.2023 20:56:57] [RM]Fl-Ignatz.Schwan: Submit or we will be forced to apprehend you.
[25.01.2023 20:56:58] RNC-Wodan: Someone must apprehend the Bundschuh pilot here
[25.01.2023 20:57:06] NWB|Paul.Botzler: There is no need for that.
[25.01.2023 20:57:17] [RM]Fl-Frieda.Voigt: Shall I pursue, Oberleutnant?
[25.01.2023 20:57:25] [RM]Obl-Trau.Habermeyer: Herr Botzler of all people! Oh but there is - you attacked Rheinwehr last time. Tsk.
[25.01.2023 20:57:41] NWB|Paul.Botzler: I have not done such a thing.
[25.01.2023 20:57:49] [RM]Obl-Trau.Habermeyer: Liar.
[25.01.2023 20:57:59] NWB|Paul.Botzler: Surely you have evidence of this.
[25.01.2023 20:58:03] [RM]Obl-Trau.Habermeyer: Get these pirates off me. Oh we do.
[25.01.2023 20:58:16] Hitman-76: Lock: Pirates, I wouldn't get so close if I was you.
[25.01.2023 20:58:21] HRZ~Ulfhedinn: All I'm seeing is an activist laying the heat on someone else, then vanish.
[25.01.2023 20:58:42] NWB|Paul.Botzler: I hope you are not truly thinking that it was me who brough the authorities.
[25.01.2023 20:58:51] HRZ~Ulfhedinn: That's the neat part.
[25.01.2023 20:58:56] HRZ~Ulfhedinn: I don't usually think!
[25.01.2023 20:58:56] HRZ~Terpentin: Probably not...
[25.01.2023 20:59:16] NWB|Paul.Botzler: You certainly are not losing your wit in a situation like this.
[25.01.2023 20:59:33] [RM]Obl-Trau.Habermeyer: Irrelevant. Wodan - these two have been spotted disrupting the lanes?
[25.01.2023 20:59:39] HRZ~Ulfhedinn: Us? Never.
[25.01.2023 20:59:42] Hitman-76: Lock: They have done so for me.
[25.01.2023 20:59:44] RNC-Wodan: They were sitting near one of the lanes
[25.01.2023 20:59:47] HRZ~Terpentin: Maybe you should show some solidarity with the working class for once.
[25.01.2023 20:59:49] [RM]Fl-Frieda.Voigt: Am I to let the Rebel go, Oberleutnant?
[25.01.2023 21:00:09] Ludwig.Shafen: Leave him be, if he comes anywhere close to 6 clicks I'll blast him to where he belongs.
[25.01.2023 21:00:23] [RM]Fl-Frieda.Voigt: Ich verstehe, regrouping.
[25.01.2023 21:00:27] HRZ~Ulfhedinn: The lane was already shut down when we got here!
[25.01.2023 21:00:35] Hitman-76: Lock: Uh huh.
[25.01.2023 21:00:35] [RM]Bmn-Jurgen.Fischer: Why do I doubt that?
[25.01.2023 21:00:46] HRZ~Ulfhedinn: Maybe you shouldn't doubt honest words.
[25.01.2023 21:00:54] Hitman-76: Lock: Your IFF tells me otherwise.
[25.01.2023 21:00:58] Ludwig.Shafen: You were warned Botzler.
[25.01.2023 21:01:09] HRZ~Ulfhedinn: I could, allegedly, be a pirate. But I'll be damned if I am a liar.
[25.01.2023 21:01:20] [RM]Obl-Trau.Habermeyer: Maybe you shouldn't lie. I have heard enough. Shafen? Arrest Botzler.
[25.01.2023 21:01:30] Ludwig.Shafen: I am already on it.
[25.01.2023 21:01:34] [RM]Obl-Trau.Habermeyer: Good.
[25.01.2023 21:01:42] HRZ~Terpentin: Hey, leave the guy alone. Is littering really a crime?
[25.01.2023 21:02:23] [RM]Obl-Trau.Habermeyer: Obstructing administration of law and assaulting Rheinwehr forces is. And you two have been spotted disrupting trade lanes.
[25.01.2023 21:02:28] HRZ~Ulfhedinn: Proof?
[25.01.2023 21:02:35] HRZ~Terpentin: What next, gonna call in KKS-Schwanzgesicht to arrest us?
[25.01.2023 21:02:36] HRZ~Ulfhedinn: Me breathing isn't a proof.
[25.01.2023 21:02:40] RNC-Wodan: Hitman and I can attest to that
[25.01.2023 21:02:47] Hitman-76: Lock: Tcah, I can handle these two my self.
[25.01.2023 21:03:10] [RM]Obl-Trau.Habermeyer: *Snickers* Ah .... add some disorderly conduct on top. My favourite.
[25.01.2023 21:03:20] [RM]Fl-Ignatz.Schwan: In addition, you are in possession of illegal craft and your IFF verification system is invalid.
[25.01.2023 21:03:37] [RM]Fl-Frieda.Voigt: Sounds to me like there's only one solution left for all of these transgressions.
[25.01.2023 21:03:46] [RM]Obl-Trau.Habermeyer: More than enough grounds to act upon. It indeed is Voigt.
[25.01.2023 21:03:48] HRZ~Ulfhedinn: There is.
[25.01.2023 21:03:51] RNC-Wodan: Alright, keep an eye on them. Make sure they do not attempt to escape
[25.01.2023 21:03:53] HRZ~Ulfhedinn: Gentlemen. It's been a pleasure.
[25.01.2023 21:04:05] [RM]Fl-Frieda.Voigt: Escaping? Really?
[25.01.2023 21:04:06] HRZ~Ulfhedinn: I bid you a good day, and I promise not to shit on your lanes again.
[25.01.2023 21:04:06] [RM]Fl-Ignatz.Schwan: They're routing.
[25.01.2023 21:04:07] Hitman-76: Lock: Cowards!
[25.01.2023 21:04:07] [RM]Obl-Trau.Habermeyer: Get them.
[25.01.2023 21:04:09] [RM]Fl-Ignatz.Schwan: Intercepting.
[25.01.2023 21:04:55] HRZ~Ulfhedinn: do you want to fight them?
[25.01.2023 21:04:58] [RM]Fl-Ignatz.Schwan: One tagged.
[25.01.2023 21:05:05] RNC-Wodan: I hear a beep
[25.01.2023 21:05:07] [RM]Fl-Frieda.Voigt: ECM readings detected!
[25.01.2023 21:05:09] HRZ~Terpentin: Piss off, will you?
[25.01.2023 21:05:11] HRZ~Ulfhedinn: Well shit, I ain't leaving that cunt alone.
[25.01.2023 21:05:23] [RM]Fl-Ignatz.Schwan: Moving in to detain suspect.
[25.01.2023 21:05:25] HRZ~Terpentin: No choice, mate
[25.01.2023 21:05:29] HRZ~Ulfhedinn: Let's.
[25.01.2023 21:05:40] Hitman-76: Lock: Pipe down was just me...
[25.01.2023 21:05:40] HRZ~Ulfhedinn: Cap their knees before they cap ours!
[25.01.2023 21:05:43] [RM]Fl-Frieda.Voigt: Understood, moving in!
[25.01.2023 21:06:05] Hitman-76: Lock: Four on two, fools.
[25.01.2023 21:06:14] Hitman-76: Lock: .. Or three.
[25.01.2023 21:09:22] Death: [RM]Obl-Trau.Habermeyer was put out of action by HRZ~Ulfhedinn (Gun).
[25.01.2023 21:09:26] Hitman-76: Lock: *sighs*
[25.01.2023 21:09:29] HRZ~Ulfhedinn: One down.
[25.01.2023 21:12:24] Death: HRZ~Terpentin was put out of action by [RM]Fl-Ignatz.Schwan (Gun).

So yeah. We made a run for it before they decided their numerical superiority wasn't enough and dropped a turtle on our heads, and might have clipped a few wings in the process.

Now I have to repair my ship again. Got that in common, you and I.

I'll see you around.
Kurt out.
