Greetings.
Today I encountered Interspace Renzu Liner in New Tokyo which was carrying <ITS> tag. Of course I was interested about this new faction, so I asked the ship take course to quiet part of the system for interrogation.
I will let the logs speak for them self.
Trigger: Greetings. <ITS>Monsun: Hello. Trigger: Set course to G7. Yoshida: Greetings. <ITS>Monsun: G-7? It not on your way. <ITS>Monsun: Why? Trigger: It's more peaceful place. <ITS>Monsun: Lets go. Trigger: Get your cruise engines up and running. <ITS>Monsun: Well, looks peaceful enough. Trigger: I have caught an Interspace liner, New Tokyo, G-7 Yoshida: Do you require assistance? Trigger: Not needed, but you can join if you want. Trigger: Alright, it's nice and peaceful here. <ITS>Monsun: Yep. Trigger: I am going to ask you a couple questions. <ITS>Monsun: Ask away. Yoshida: On my way. Trigger: What is this <ITS>, sub division of Interspace? Yoshida: Are you on a bomber? Trigger: Yes, and I am also interrogating. <ITS>Monsun: No, no subdivision <ITS>=Independent Trading Ship. <ITS>Monsun: We are not employees of IC.

Trigger: Alright, I see you are carrying Interspace transponder, what is your reputation with them? <ITS>Monsun: it is very high, as you can see at my IFF. Trigger: I meant how close your faction is with them. Trigger: How much do you fly with them? <ITS>Monsun: Fly with them? <ITS>Monsun: Sometimes we meet one in space. Trigger: Co-operations and that sort of stuff? <ITS>Monsun: No, no cooperations. Trigger: So you don't have regular operations with them? Trigger: Okay. <ITS>Monsun: Not with the IC. <ITS>Monsun: We just have their ID. Trigger: What is your primary area of operations? <ITS>Monsun: By now, Liberty, Kusari, Taus. <ITS>Monsun: Sometimes Bretonia. Trigger: What kind of cargo you usually haul? High-risk cargo or more regular stuff? Trigger: By high-risk I mean ores. <ITS>Monsun: We have a kind of contract with T&T. <ITS>Monsun: No unlawful! <ITS>Monsun: Ore? If we can receive them. Trigger: So what are your most commonly hauled items? <ITS>Monsun: Helium, Helium-3, Premium Scrap, Niobium Ore, are always good runs. <ITS>Monsun: But hull panels and superconductors are necessary too. Trigger: That seems to be quite high-risk stuff mostly. Trigger: Alright, that's all. Trigger: Now I ask you for 5 million contribution towards The Lane Hackers. Trigger: Because you surely don't want to loose that cargo. <ITS>Monsun: Okay. <ITS>Monsun: To you or your friend? Trigger: To me please. You have received 5.000.000 credits from <ITS>Monsun. Trigger: Thank you. Trigger: Have a good day.
