Mr. Cross, I'll be happy to comment all of you statements.
"(...) if you open fire on any of the three name individuals, you will have fired upon all Zoners"
All Zoners? I don't think so. You know that is not the truth.
"If you commit this act, you have sealed the fate of yourself and your men and that fate is death. Be it in combat or through starvation."
Wrong, Mr. Cross. Construction of secret Apocalypse Wing's base called "Lateralus" is going as planned. Soon we will have our own base and our own supplies. But that has nothing to do with the fact that I've been fired at FIRST, and warned LATER. You seem to be keep on neglecting this fact in all your messages. That gave me a moral right not to listen to the person who harmed me, and the other 2 persons who stood behind Saronsen after fired shot, without possessing all facts.
"If you make enemies out of the Zoners, you will cease to be able to function this far out."
I do not wish to make enemies with Zoners, I only wish an apology from 3 individuals. And I won't be able to cease function this far out. Except that, as I've heard, Primus - Monkey Planet, is not controlled by Zoners. Monkeys treat us right. They are better than most humans. At least they don't kill each other for money nor power.
"I am requesting you to make amends for the damage that Freeport 11 took when your forcible docked to her."
I am fine by that. But I wonder to whom am I to pay that? You? Aurelia? I will transfer money to all faction of Zoners who provide me with a name and amount requested. I see no problem with that. It's fair.
"I am requesting you cover the costs of the equipment you stole while you were docked to Freeport 11."
I didn't steal anything. I purchased all equipment. Zoners that are stationed on Freeport 11 all know me for years. And, if you by any chance, referred to turrets - they are not sold there. I bought them on Corfu.
"How about you make amends for the laws you broke."
I'd listen to ANY order if it was given by straight Zoners in this incident. As far as I'm concerned, I didn't brake any law. 3 individuals did, by acting like pirates.
"How about you submit yourself to Justice."
How about you submit yourself to my turrets considering how much you're twisting truth and lie in general. Who are you anyway? One of spies Aurelia sent?
"Hell, if you can manage to eat your pride and apologize to the Zoners as a whole for you blatant disregard for our laws (past and present);"
They do not owe apology only to me, but to 2 of my Apocalypse members: Apocalypse_Apollo and Apocalypse_Dude. I also said this in my previous messages. You should have read them more carefully.
I didn't not brake laws.
"I will cover the expenses I have listed above." Believe me, with amount credits my supporters provide to our "establishment" and my personal stash, I could buy you around 2 billion times. So that's how much you are worth to me with such false accusations - 1 credit.
"As for the apoligizes from the individuals you named, I can promise you you will not be getting them unless you become a man of your word."
I've already told that I am aware of that fact. Don't you worry, I think 10 steps ahead. I know EXACTLY what will happen. Around 30-40% of Zoners won't support Aurelia and they will never open fire at APOs. Those, let's say, 60% will follow her shallow leadership covered up by lies. But sadly, they will not know the whole truth. They'll be tricked by deceits of these 3 individuals.
And now... about my strategy... Of course, I will not share that with you nor anyone else, hehe. It's a surprise.
"I can promise you will be getting them (apologies)"
You are so sure about that. Is that you Aurelia, or you Saronsen? Or that sleazy Izzi? If not, you're probably a spy. I see no objectiveness within your accusations.
"Do I feel Saronsen was a bit brash? Yes."
I can't believe you admitted something. I'm impressed and really surprised. "a bit harsh"? That's a mild statement, too mild. He though he could play a tough guy with me firing mortar at me... (he did that also 2 days before this incident. Ask him) thinking I will get scared of his ship with which he has no knowledge on how to maneuver, let alone command it and use of its tactical advantages. Anyway, I showed him. Ask him also if we ever had "battle simulation" which he also lost (I keep repeating myself, many don't read). Don't you see a pattern? Are you blind? He's taking things personally, that's why all this has happened. Why would I take anything personally? I know I'm better than him, as a person, and as a capital ship commander as well. He's weak-minded. Oh, sorry Saronsen, did I offend you? We'll see that new armor you mounted. Will that increase your... courage?
"He gave you and order and you choose to disobey it because you don't like him"
Mr. Cross. I will say again, because you keep on ignoring it: HE FIRED FIRST, WARNING FOLLOWED AFTER. That's not important, isn't it?
"I would also like to ask why the Spatial fighter called Apollo is currently moored at Freeport 11 and the pilot has booked a few nights at the inn located there? I followed him as he left Freeport 9 and sat outside Freeport 11 waiting for him to undock."
I have no knowledge of that, I swear. I Issued order to APOs not to dock to any Zoner base until we clear things out, just for case. I will talk to him as SOON as possible and make inquiry.
Anyway, we're not banned officially from docking, aren't we? If we are, no one informed me nor have I seen ANY messages of banning us on official channels.
Besides that, I also told all of my men not to station their ships at FP even before this incident. Maybe he had to use toilet or take a nap as you've said. Be that as it may, he shouldn't have.
Will you also ask Order, BHG, Corsairs not to station their ships there? No, you only judge us, and we don't do it. I'll repeat, I only go/was going there to buy supplies and to pick up missions.
Cheers,
Colonel Walter E. Kurtz, cmdr. of Rogue BHG BS "Apocalypse Now"
