I'll tackle this one, seeing as I was leading the duo in question. The Leeson and the Fenning are both Clydesdales, not Percherons, but that's irrelevant - we were still in the wrong here. You see, Bowex has had a long an coloured history with slavers, resulting in us getting burned pretty bad.
Because of that, we reacted as our characters would when we spotted you, a matter further exacerbated by the fact we'd had a scuffle with you the day before when you tried to pirate me (when you had a Slaver ID instead of a Junker one). In the midst of all this, we completely forgot about our corporate ID limitations. I think it's a case of logical RP being trumped by rules, really.
Regardless, I do believe I stopped firing after you pointed that out, and retreated out of your weapon range to the trade lane, from where I could take pictures. It slipped my mind to pass your message on to the Fenning, so again, that's my fault and not his. I am completely willing to reimburse you for damages and the turrets lost, as well as for the inconvenience involved with the incident.
I can promise it won't happen again. The Clydesdale Brigade will be more aware of its own limitations in the future.
