And as for le Cruiser, it was not simply 'taken command of', it was -purchased-. We are more than happy to provide such economic munificence to le Council in exchange for your shipyard surplus. If the money for some reason did not show up in your coffers, it is to the manager of Chalons that you must speak, not us!
//Seriously. The Brigands ID specifies that we are able to fly cruisers. Do you suggest that we get them from the GRN? Are you questioning our right to fly them, or the uses that we put them to? Because we have had multiple encounters with GRN cruisers where a cruiser of our own would have been extremely useful!
Let us calm our Tongues mon amis we do not want a flame De Fest, but i will say after all the bloood spilt upholding Council Ideals and keeping back the royals. We have even died in battle by teh side of council pilots, we have earned Rights marked in Blood. We demand a little respect and common Professional Courtesy Merci
