Receiving a local emergency ping when on planet Hamburg, my crew and I immediately launched to investigate. Launched in space we found a BDM gunboat surrounded by multiple LSF fighters and bombers under the 47th tag. They claimed to be there for answers from said gunboat after an alleged incursion in Liberty. When asked why they couldn't have sent this over comms, they claimed the sent to RM as well. I could not find any communications in our databanks so perhaps this was a fake information.
After multiple inquiries to leave they refused and decided to provoke even further. At this time, more of our reinforcements arrived. Then they assaulted the BDM gunboat. We returned fire. Although the Marinenachrichtsdienst Gunboat was disabled, we managed to disable one of their snubs. He was seemingly left behind by his comrades as the rest fled in the direction of the Hudson jumpgate. Afterwards we checked on the jumpgates but we didn't find any further trace of activity in the system.
Below you can find footage and the conversation logs. Mind you, the professionalism by some of their officers was lacking.
[05.02.2024 01:49:54] BDM|U-66: it's as they say, for every one you see...
[05.02.2024 01:50:03] [RM]KKS-Raeren: K: guten tag
[05.02.2024 01:50:34] BDM|U-66: Well then, I believe this constitutes a 'domestic' disturbance which would make this your jurisdiction, Raeren
[05.02.2024 01:50:40] 47th|Bolt: Still haven't explained your reasoning.
[05.02.2024 01:50:52] [RM]KKS-Raeren: K: By all means, go ahead.
[05.02.2024 01:51:36] BDM|U-66: I was unaware that we were under any obligation to explain any of our alleged appearances
[05.02.2024 01:51:42] 47th|Bravo-5: You are now.
[05.02.2024 01:51:48] [RM]KKS-Raeren: K: So what does the LSF think it's doing here? Lost your way?
[05.02.2024 01:51:58] 47th|Bolt: We've come to simply ask questions.
[05.02.2024 01:52:03] 47th|Bravo-5: We could say the same thing about your intelligence vessels in our systems.
[05.02.2024 01:52:17] 47th|Bravo-5: Can't that knife cut both ways?
[05.02.2024 01:52:27] [RM]KKS-Raeren: K: That could have been done easy over comms. Yet you are here now...
[05.02.2024 01:52:36] 47th|Bravo-5: We tried.
[05.02.2024 01:52:38] BDM|U-66: Obligation implies some sort of demand - which I hardly see any cause for in this situation
[05.02.2024 01:52:38] 47th|Bravo-5: We didn't get a response.
[05.02.2024 01:52:48] 47th|Bravo-5: So we decided to pay you a visit.
[05.02.2024 01:53:41] BDM|U-66: In that case, I believe we've fulfilled our courtesy obligations to indulge you in this chat
[05.02.2024 01:53:55] BDM|U-66: we must request that you return to your space.
[05.02.2024 01:54:00] 47th|Bolt: Negative.
[05.02.2024 01:54:09] 47th|Bolt: You've not given any reasoning.
[05.02.2024 01:54:35] BDM|U-66: Do not presume to come to another's house without welcome and overstay - it's quite discourteous
[05.02.2024 01:54:36] 47th|Bolt: The first armada wouldn't just openly Bounty MND vessels for no reason.
[05.02.2024 01:54:58] [RM]KKS-Raeren: K: Oh so you are bounty hunters now? How amusing
[05.02.2024 01:55:11] BDM|U-66: The policies of some overfunded strangers are none of our concern
[05.02.2024 01:55:12] 47th|Bolt: That Rheinlander seems thick.
[05.02.2024 01:55:13] 47th|Bravo-5: We're just here to do a job.
[05.02.2024 01:55:18] BDM|U-66: unless, of course, you intend to collect.
[05.02.2024 01:55:27] 47th|Bolt: These overfunded strangers are the Liberty Navy.
[05.02.2024 01:55:42] KKS-Kaiserschlacht: Are they here to collect the bounty
[05.02.2024 01:55:46] BDM|U-66: Whatever they may call themselves
[05.02.2024 01:55:47] BDM|U-66: doubt it
[05.02.2024 01:55:50] 47th|Bolt: I see your emergency call is working.
[05.02.2024 01:56:01] 47th|Bravo-5: You're gonna need more ships than that.
[05.02.2024 01:56:03] 47th|Bolt: You think that intimidates us?
[05.02.2024 01:56:16] BDM|U-66: Hardly, they're just here to ensure that this courtesy call remains just that.
[05.02.2024 01:57:04] BDM|U-66: To be frank, my being here is more out of concern for your safety
[05.02.2024 01:57:10] 47th|Bravo-5: Is that so?
[05.02.2024 01:57:19] 47th|Bolt: You don't have to worry about that.
[05.02.2024 01:57:24] 47th|Bolt: We can handle ourselves.
[05.02.2024 01:57:26] BDM|U-66: you see, the military has ultimate jurisdiction in matters of... domestic disturbance
[05.02.2024 01:58:10] 47th|Bolt: What exactly are we disturbing?
[05.02.2024 01:58:22] BDM|U-66: The libertonian taxpayers, I'd guess
[05.02.2024 01:58:23] [RM]KKS-Raeren: K: All this though talk could have been done over comms, and you are unwanted guests here.
[05.02.2024 01:58:32] 47th|Bravo-5: Hey, idiot.
[05.02.2024 01:58:35] 47th|Bravo-5: We sent you a comm.
[05.02.2024 01:58:39] 47th|Bravo-5: We got no response.
[05.02.2024 01:58:49] 47th|Bravo-5: So now we're here. Asking in-person.
[05.02.2024 01:58:55] KKS-Regensburg: have they said why they're here?
[05.02.2024 01:59:03] 47th|Bolt: As I said.
[05.02.2024 01:59:07] 47th|Bolt: Thick.
[05.02.2024 01:59:08] BDM|U-66: Perhaps our secretary didn't see fit to relay it? They've strict instructions not to waste our time with solicitors.
[05.02.2024 01:59:11] KKS-Kaiserschlacht: Judging by the dialogue they don't appreciate the Buro's Earhart expeditions
[05.02.2024 01:59:21] 47th|Bolt: Call her here then.
[05.02.2024 01:59:23] KKS-Kaiserschlacht: Especially when the travel plan goes through Liberty
[05.02.2024 01:59:37] 47th|Bolt: Because you have an elite fighter wing demaning clarity.
[05.02.2024 01:59:44] 47th|Bolt: Is that not fit enough?
[05.02.2024 01:59:50] BDM|U-66: Now now, there's no reason to be so discourteous in another's house
[05.02.2024 02:00:00] 47th|Bravo-5: We're just returning the favor.
[05.02.2024 02:00:20] [RM]KKS-Raeren: K: Surprised you expected more from this... rabble.
[05.02.2024 02:00:52] BDM|U-66: Raeren, it's your call. Personally, I don't see them as much of a threat - but they have been quite rude
[05.02.2024 02:00:57] 47th|Bolt: I won't even entertain that gunboat pilot over there, he doesn't seem very smart.
[05.02.2024 02:01:53] [RM]KKS-Raeren: K: They seem unable to comprehend they won't get any response from you. Either they leave willingly or we'll help them a hand.
[05.02.2024 02:02:27] BDM|U-66: There it is. It's out of my hands - now there's no need for this to escalate into something unseemly
[05.02.2024 02:02:54] 47th|Bolt: You shoot at us, you've sealed your fate.
[05.02.2024 02:03:03] 47th|Bolt: I'd advice not to.
[05.02.2024 02:03:23] BDM|U-66: Who said anything about shooting? We're just kindly telling our guests that they have overstayed their welcome
[05.02.2024 02:03:35] 47th|Bravo-5: We're not leaving until we get answers.
[05.02.2024 02:03:50] 47th|Bolt: A simple answer to the "Why".
[05.02.2024 02:04:07] BDM|U-66: See, there lies our impasse. You won't leave without answers, and we don't feel the need to give you any
[05.02.2024 02:04:25] 47th|Bolt: We'll then we're going to be staring at each other for a while I suppose.
[05.02.2024 02:04:32] 47th|Bolt: Or hmm..
[05.02.2024 02:04:39] 47th|Bolt: Nevermind, I'll have a look in New Berlin.
[05.02.2024 02:04:55] 47th|Bolt: I see that is not in your interest.
[05.02.2024 02:05:33] BDM|U-66: I see courtesy is lost on you. You will vacate the area or we will remove you.
[05.02.2024 02:05:45] 47th|Bolt: I've said it, you fire, we fire.
[05.02.2024 02:06:13] BDM|U-66: Those who survive will be taken to the Libertonian embassy on New Berlin where your government can decide
[05.02.2024 02:06:31] BDM|U-66: if it's worth the shame to ship you back or let you have an extended stay with our legendary ammenities.
[05.02.2024 02:07:02] 47th|Bravo-5: We're not going anywhere, until we get our answers.
[05.02.2024 02:07:06] BDM|U-66: Now, before this becomes a regretable incident, I must insist you return home.
[05.02.2024 02:07:13] 47th|Bolt: Negative.
[05.02.2024 02:07:20] 47th|Bolt: We've got a reputation to uphold.
[05.02.2024 02:07:47] BDM|U-66: Perhaps a compromise then.
[05.02.2024 02:07:55] 47th|Bolt: Sure.
[05.02.2024 02:08:04] BDM|U-66: I'll relay your message to the Direktor himself
[05.02.2024 02:08:13] 47th|Bolt: Call him here.
[05.02.2024 02:08:29] BDM|U-66: He's rather indisposed at the moment, Direktorship is quite a demanding job.
[05.02.2024 02:08:43] BDM|U-66: Not to be rude, but I do not think your visit quite merits his immediate attention
[05.02.2024 02:09:34] 47th|Bolt: Alright.
[05.02.2024 02:09:46] 47th|Bolt: Here's how we grab his attention.
[05.02.2024 02:09:49] BDM|U-66: This is the best I can do in the interests of resolving this intrusion amicably.
[05.02.2024 02:09:54] 47th|Bolt: All vessels scrap the MND gunboat.
[05.02.2024 02:09:55] 47th|Bolt: Asap.
[05.02.2024 02:09:57] 47th|Eliza.Krohn: Copy that.
[05.02.2024 02:09:59] 47th|Joe.King: Wow that is quite the attention grabber
[05.02.2024 02:10:01] BDM|U-66: Very well, you may try
[05.02.2024 02:10:02] 47th|Bravo-5: Weapons ready.
[05.02.2024 02:10:03] 47th|Zircon: Roger.
[05.02.2024 02:10:07] KKS-Kaiserschlacht: Holzner: Oh bloody Libertonian fools. Gunners, have at them!
[05.02.2024 02:10:08] 47th|Zircon: Priming weapons.
[05.02.2024 02:10:11] [RM]KKS-Raeren: K: hostile fire!
[05.02.2024 02:10:13] [RM]Lt-Elias.Beist: Mein gott
[05.02.2024 02:10:14] 47th|Bravo-5: Engaging!
[05.02.2024 02:10:17] [RM]KKS-Raeren: K: Rheinwher engage!
[05.02.2024 02:10:20] [RM]Lt-Elias.Beist: Weapons free, I'm going in
[05.02.2024 02:11:02] 47th|Zunko.Jane: The cava... cava... the cavaaa... fuck, the reinforcement has arrived.
[05.02.2024 02:11:19] 47th|Zunko.Jane: Supporting friendly assets!
[05.02.2024 02:11:22] KKS-Kaiserschlacht: Holzner: Bomber incoming, target Jane!
[05.02.2024 02:11:25] 47th|Zunko.Jane: Weapons hot!
[05.02.2024 02:14:17] 47th|Bolt: Good job.
[05.02.2024 02:14:18] 47th|Bravo-5: Let's go.
[05.02.2024 02:14:19] 47th|Bolt: Message sent.
[05.02.2024 02:14:22] 47th|Bolt: Scatter.
[05.02.2024 02:14:23] BDM|U-66 died to 47th|Eliza.Krohn (23%)
[05.02.2024 02:14:23] Assisted by: 47th|Bolt (19%), 47th|Joe.King (18%)
[05.02.2024 02:15:02] 47th|Eliza.Krohn: You aren't guilty of intruding into our space, Rheinland Military, I'd suggest you fall back.
[05.02.2024 02:15:35] [RM]Lt-Elias.Beist: Orders?
[05.02.2024 02:15:54] [RM]KKS-Raeren: K: get them out of Rheinland space
[05.02.2024 02:15:55] [RM]Fl-Ignatz;Schwan: Looks like we have some renegade Libertonians.
[05.02.2024 02:15:58] [RM]Fl-Ignatz;Schwan: Let's detain them.
[05.02.2024 02:16:05] [RM]Fl-Ignatz;Schwan: Moving in to intercept.
[05.02.2024 02:18:49] [RM]KKS-Raeren: seems like your men are already abandoning you
[05.02.2024 02:19:24] [RM]KKS-Raeren: K: I suggest your comrades use their brains next time before shooting again.
[05.02.2024 02:19:35] 47th|Bravo-5 was put out of action by [RM]Fl-Ignatz;Schwan (32%)
[05.02.2024 02:19:35] Assisted by: KKS-Regensburg (23%), [RM]KKS-Raeren (22%)
[05.02.2024 02:19:38] [RM]Fl-Ignatz;Schwan: He's down!
[05.02.2024 02:19:45] [RM]Lt-Elias.Beist: Well done Schwan
[05.02.2024 02:19:48] [RM]KKS-Raeren: K: Well done kameraden!
[05.02.2024 02:20:01] [RM]Lt-Elias.Beist: Let's clear the jump gates
[05.02.2024 02:20:05] [RM]KKS-Raeren: K: Let's double check the Hamburg jumpgate before we head back to patrol
[05.02.2024 02:20:13] [RM]Fl-Ignatz;Schwan: Copy that.
[05.02.2024 02:21:00] [RM]Lt-Elias.Beist: Admiral Henze will be livid
