Bonjour,

Aspirants Delacroix and Amyx, you two are officially promoted to Membre within the Armed Division. Our apologies Mei-Lin; we understand that this is far overdue. It has been a pleasure to work with you, mademoiselles.

Matthieu Picard, I have been most impressed with your performance as a leader, in particular your role administering the Glieze facility. You are given a raise from Lieutenant to Commandant as a result. Keep up the good work, mon ami.

Finally, I would like to extend my thanks to those who have recently assisted in gathering route information. The ongoing war has caused much fluctuation in the markets, et it is paramount to stay on top of this.

General Logarus,
Unione Corse Armed Command

Bonjour!

I'm happy to report that the business of ousting the sniffer swine and their weed is progressing well! I've recently made another couple of claims with our IMG friends. Thanks to Aspirant Dunois for her assistance in interdicting the Cardamine hauler as well! She's shown great promise in overcoming her fears of combat to help stop the spread of this vile substance!

My Claim

Oh, and you'll never guess what I ran into before I put into for the day. Another one of those "Judge" pilots. The last time they showed up they seemed rather misguided; I can't same the same about this one. He was downright threatening! I suggest keeping an eye or two or three out for these rather rude and offensive pilots in case they try threatening us again!

Adieu!

[Teerin]

Good morning.

Madame Dunois, your raise to Membre from Aspirant is given with honors. We appreciate the work you've put in, and it has been a pleasure to fly with you.

There is no other news for now, though new neural net billboards will soon be completed by the Armed Command. Safe flying out there; au revoir.

Bonjour Madames and Monsieurs of the Corse,

I know that scale of My contributions to Our case so far can be best described as puny, but I had my hands tied but commitments of scale unworthy of further explanation.

To cut it short, I have came into possession of a vessel, I'Aine. I have acequired ownership in the fair game of cards, and while I regret that this will leave my opponent without precious source of income, I cannot be held accountable for my opponents inability to cover the stake in different way.

The ship is currently docked on Brigands base in the Languedock, and I wish to employ its spacious cargo bay for my gain, as an Nox runner for a start. For this I wish to wash away its past allegiance and rechristen it to [UC]V-Soleil.Noir.

To avoid any misunderstanding, I am asking for permission to do so.

Salut

Aspirant Treville,

You may of course use the Soleil Noir, though I do suggest Nox be only an occasional cargo for it. In our position, it is best for us to have the Brigands do the majority of the distribution, for we have much more to lose if caught. On that note, use extreme caution, and try to fly with an escort at all times.

The Armed Command applauds your initiative, monsieur. Also, I would enjoy it if we had a chance to sit down for a game of cards, Treville - just remind me to keep an eye on my wallet ...

Good luck out there. May your travels be profitable.

General Logarus,
Unione Corse Armed Command

Salut, Arek here with an update on my efforts to improve our investments and profit margins, along side whatever other information seems relevant to the reports database.

Our transport fleet has been hard at work, with each ship's crew handling the fuel limitations of our engine systems well when shipping goods to and from the Sirius systems. While individual profit records are of course logged on each individual ship and are not required to be added to our records, I can confirm that our current accumulated funds have risen into the billions over the past few months. Naturally we've ensured these funds are spread across multiple, separate banking facilities across Gallia, although we are also looking into Kusari banking firms should our separated net value begin to rise further and gain the attention of tax agencies. It may be worth contacting our friends in the Black Dragon Society to make inquiries on this matter at some point.

On the downside, Manufacturing has been in decline over the past few months despite our recently opened equipment markets. However we do have one pending order awaiting delivery, as well as word of when to send this out, although Ion interference has prevented contact with our client. As for our internal projects, our commodities have seen a slight boost in exports beyond the Gallic Borderworlds, and a new project to improve our security pilot's arsenal has been put forward for consideration. For anyone interested, this project will provide a dramatic improvement in our combat performance while maintaining our ever-favored maneuverability. Selan is certainly looking forward to future developments on this project, and so am I.

Finally, to conclude the majority of this report I would like to bring an event from one of my more recent journeys to Sirius forward, for a couple of reasons.
The following conversation took place in Libertonian space, as I was transporting Blue Diamonds.

The above is basically just the transcript and a data-scan of the two vessels I encountered. While I'm bringing attention to this simply to keep a record of this, I also would like to point out that, despite the donation of four hundred Blue Diamonds and seven point four million credits, my final delivery of three-thousand six-hundred and five BD at my intended delivery point still earned me a profit of eleven million, so there was no real loss after this encounter. Naturally I laughed this off once I completed the delivery and simply moved on to the next stage of my itinerary.
At any rate, another reason I bring this to your attention is to ask if anyone can share any information you have regarding the identification codes of the Ice.Cream.Van, as I don't believe we've encountered these Rogues before despite previous interaction with the Lane Hackers. I'm not too bothered however, as apart from this we've had no contact of interest with the Hackers in over a year anyway.

Ah, and Selan seems to think that the above scenario is called being pirated. I disagree, based on the poor quality of their ships, and still consider it a donation to a pair of Libertonian romantics looking for adventure. If they did not seem like lower-class civilians they might fit into Gallic society. Or maybe I'm just too busy thinking about the potential profits of another Blue Diamond delivery, perhaps they'll spread news that we are in the export market...
That should be everything I needed to cover in this report, oui?

Non, Mon dieu! I almost forgot. Monsieur Treville, congratulations on your promotion from Aspirant to Membre. I trust the Soleil Noir is handling well, the l'Ane class transports certainly have more mobility than my Vache after all.

-Commandant Arek Maxim,

Division du financement

PS: Could someone tell Selan that I do -not- have a problem, s'il vous plaît? She seems to think I have something akin to Gamblers addiction.

::TRANSMISSION EN COURS::
POUR: Haut Commandement Corse
IDENTITÉ CONFIRMÉ: Lucie Poitoux
SUJET: Rapport de mission
ENCRYPTION: Élevé
PRIORITÉ: Moyenne

Salutations,

I have to begin this report by stating the obvious. I am a woman of many talents. I can probably kill a man in more ways than a Holovid director can imagine. I've spent years studying different kinds of poisons and drugs, and consider myself to be an accomplished chemist. I've even trained under the wing of Lane Hackers when Sirius was revealed to us, teaching my Sirian and a few hints about the ins and outs of Sirian lanes. Piloting, though, is not one of my talents. Sure, I own a licence. Put me in a ship and tell me to point the guns in the generic direction of a transport, I can do. Slap me into a bomber and tell me to support against a capital vessel, everyone can do that, and I might even score a hit or two.

A snub pilot I am not, as this mission report proves.

Regardless, I met up with MacMahon in the Taus aboard my brand new Mistral Noir. I wasn't too comfortable with the ship, but c'est la vie. He informed me that we would be on some kind of 'watch' duty of some kind. Having never left the confines of the Borderworlds, I wasn't too sure what he was referring to.

Until we saw a Krueger vessel carrying our good stuff, at least. We swooped in to interrogate it, but it immediatly opened fire. MacMahon and I were forced to terminate the vessel. What a waste. Immediatly after, we intercepted a Sirian Junker carrying the nasty orange stuff. He didn't even bother bargaining and opened fire fire. Not that I'd bargain with a Junker, anyway.

Or so I thought until we met those Marauders fellows Apparently, they claim to be some kind of "clean" Junkers, I don't know them well enough to comment on that. I was suspicious at first as they were around Cali base, but they were 'friendly' enough for Sirians, I suppose. We started discussing business, our shared dislike for our Junkers, until some Outcast tried to kick the Junkers away from the area. I decided to teach some manners to it, but that's where the part where I'm not a pilot comes in play. I was completely unable to fight it off, and could only annoy it by swirling in pretty circles around him. Embarassing, uh?

Regardless, he got bored and left after a while, and the Junkers and we moved to a more appropriate area, the Freeport 10 I believe. We started discussing about Hypnotainments since we got a feel Nox might be too much for them to handle, and they seemed interested by the idea. It would probably be a good idea to contact them to try to cement some kind of deal in the matter before there may be any misunderstandings.

An Outcast did show up, and it seemed nice enough to respect the concept of Freeport. I didn't think they were civilized enough. We ended the mission shortly after, and so does my report.

-Lucie Poitoux, your loyal servant.

Salut, everyone. Just a quick announcement this time around, Selan said I shouldn't waste transmission data with too many numbers.

Grayson Matthews, I hear you've been doing well in upholding Corsican standards out in space. As a reward for your efforts the Armed Command has seen fit to promote you from Aspirant to Membre. Keep up the good work out there.

Bonjour!

I am relaying this message off of Java's transmitters from deep near Liberte at the moment. It seems we may or may not have some small measure of annoyance down here. I shall explain!

Hauling a hold full of our lovely Blue Diamonds down to Liberte, I was accosted by a "Liberte Rogue" in the New York system. Having downed the lane before me, I had little choice to listen the drunken pilot and engage in one of the most inane robberies I've ever suffered through in my life! Here are my transcripts so that you can emphathize with my plight, and perhaps learn what manner of fool we'll be dealing with down here.

Code:

[07.08.2014 05:30:48] [UC]-Affaire.Lucrative: Antoine: Bonsoir!
[07.08.2014 05:32:30] LR-Boob.Rabbit: ?: "Hello!!"

[07.08.2014 05:33:16] LR-Boob.Rabbit: ?: "I think you have to go with me now..."
[07.08.2014 05:33:35] [UC]-Affaire.Lucrative: Antoine: Oui? How and where is that?
[07.08.2014 05:33:59] LR-Boob.Rabbit: ?: "Eta-two location... I need to talk to you there"
[07.08.2014 05:34:21] [UC]-Affaire.Lucrative: *raises an eyebrow*

[07.08.2014 05:34:41] [UC]-Affaire.Lucrative: Antoine: I kind of like this location myself. Will this not do?
[07.08.2014 05:34:52] LR-Boob.Rabbit: ?: "No... Fly there"
[07.08.2014 05:35:10] [UC]-Affaire.Lucrative: Antoine: And what guarantee do I have all we'll do is "talk", hmm?
[07.08.2014 05:35:21] LR-Boob.Rabbit: ?: "My word? Word of woman?"
[07.08.2014 05:35:35] [UC]-Affaire.Lucrative: *barely holds in a laugh*
[07.08.2014 05:35:45] [UC]-Affaire.Lucrative: Antoine: Uh, well, wait. You're a woman?
[07.08.2014 05:36:00] LR-Boob.Rabbit: ?: "Haven't you found out?"

[07.08.2014 05:36:27] [UC]-Affaire.Lucrative: Antoine: I don't even know who you are. And you seem to be masking your voice some.
[07.08.2014 05:36:48] [UC]-Affaire.Lucrative: Antoine: You could be a mutant lizard with a shell for all I know.
[07.08.2014 05:36:49] LR-Boob.Rabbit: ?: "You don't need to know my name... Proceed to Eta-two location now"
[07.08.2014 05:36:56] [UC]-Affaire.Lucrative: *sighs*
[07.08.2014 05:37:01] LR-Boob.Rabbit: ?: "Or can I use my fireworks?"
[07.08.2014 05:37:10] [UC]-Affaire.Lucrative: Antoine: Alright, but if you start shooting, I'll be sure to remember you're not a woman.
[07.08.2014 05:37:20] LR-Boob.Rabbit: ?: "Of course!
[07.08.2014 05:38:21] LR-Boob.Rabbit: ?: "Alright, stop!"
[07.08.2014 05:38:31] LR-Boob.Rabbit: ?: "Now we can 'talk'"
[07.08.2014 05:38:38] [UC]-Affaire.Lucrative: Antoine: Uh-huh.
[07.08.2014 05:39:02] LR-Boob.Rabbit: ?: "Tell me something about your Tau activity, hunny"
[07.08.2014 05:39:15] [UC]-Affaire.Lucrative: Antoine: Well, I dance.
[07.08.2014 05:39:28] [UC]-Affaire.Lucrative: Antoine: Mostly in small ships, but sometimes in bigger ones.
[07.08.2014 05:39:38] [UC]-Affaire.Lucrative: Antoine: I rather like looking at the stars.
[07.08.2014 05:39:39] LR-Boob.Rabbit: ?: "Salsa?"
[07.08.2014 05:39:50] [UC]-Affaire.Lucrative: Antoine: And I dislike all the large rocks out there.
[07.08.2014 05:40:11] [UC]-Affaire.Lucrative: Antoine: What is "Salsa"?
[07.08.2014 05:40:17] LR-Boob.Rabbit: ?: "Quite nice... And now to my problem with your weird group"
[07.08.2014 05:40:38] LR-Boob.Rabbit: ?: "You are quite interrupting our convoys there"
[07.08.2014 05:40:46] LR-Boob.Rabbit: ?: "And Salsa is dance, hunny"
[07.08.2014 05:40:52] [UC]-Affaire.Lucrative: Antoine: Oh! And I like looking at the various Sirian ships that pass by. Some have quite the interesting design to them.
[07.08.2014 05:41:05] [UC]-Affaire.Lucrative: Antoine: Quite what?
[07.08.2014 05:41:39] LR-Boob.Rabbit: ?: "Your Corseir or whatever is your name..."
[07.08.2014 05:41:41] [UC]-Affaire.Lucrative: Antoine: I just look at ships.
[07.08.2014 05:41:56] [UC]-Affaire.Lucrative: Antoine: And fly my own to and from out there.
[07.08.2014 05:41:58] LR-Boob.Rabbit: ?: "Are interrupting our convoys... Asking them for money..."
[07.08.2014 05:42:13] LR-Leopard: ?:Bad thing
[07.08.2014 05:42:15] [UC]-Affaire.Lucrative: Antoine: Are you sure you have the right person?
[07.08.2014 05:42:17] LR-Boob.Rabbit: ?: "And you know... I as Rogue don't like being pirated by some scum"
[07.08.2014 05:42:26] LR-Leopard: ?: We don't like that here
[07.08.2014 05:42:36] [UC]-Affaire.Lucrative: Antoine: You'll forgive me, but I've only seen a few of you the few times I've been here.
[07.08.2014 05:42:43] [UC]-Affaire.Lucrative: Antoine: And I'm positive I've never met you before.
[07.08.2014 05:42:57] [UC]-Affaire.Lucrative: Antoine: And I'm quite sure that I have no clue about what you care for.
[07.08.2014 05:43:10] LR-Leopard: ?: You are wrong, We are getting reports of you people pirating Rogues
[07.08.2014 05:43:20] [UC]-Affaire.Lucrative: Antoine: So I do wish you'd stop assuming I know anything about your Sirian politics down this way.
[07.08.2014 05:43:27] LR-Boob.Rabbit: ?: "Let me handle that, Leopard"
[07.08.2014 05:43:31] [UC]-Affaire.Lucrative: *shrugs*
[07.08.2014 05:43:40] [UC]-Affaire.Lucrative: Antoine: Doesn't ring a bell.
[07.08.2014 05:43:58] LR-Boob.Rabbit: ?: "Listen... I don't care if you know something about us"
[07.08.2014 05:44:11] LR-Boob.Rabbit: ?: "I care about your group shooting our people"
[07.08.2014 05:44:23] [UC]-Affaire.Lucrative: Antoine: But you just said, and I quote--
[07.08.2014 05:44:36] [UC]-Affaire.Lucrative: "I as a Rogue don't like being pirated by some scum".
[07.08.2014 05:44:56] [UC]-Affaire.Lucrative: Antoine: So doesn't that mean you assume I know something about you?
[07.08.2014 05:44:59] LR-Boob.Rabbit: ?: "And? You are scum... Pirating us in your turf..."
[07.08.2014 05:45:12] LR-Boob.Rabbit: ?: "However now you are scum in -our- turf"
[07.08.2014 05:45:14] [UC]-Affaire.Lucrative: Antoine: I'm quite sure I have no idea what you're on about.
[07.08.2014 05:45:41] LR-Boob.Rabbit: ?: "But I know... And that's important"
[07.08.2014 05:45:44] [UC]-Affaire.Lucrative: Antoine: I do recall one of our Membres laughing about a communique from down this way.
[07.08.2014 05:45:54] [UC]-Affaire.Lucrative: Antoine: Did you send us a message, perhaps?
[07.08.2014 05:46:19] LR-Boob.Rabbit: ?: "Why should we? I'm sure we sent"
[07.08.2014 05:46:35] LR-Boob.Rabbit: ?: "Shortly your group is causing some troubles to us"
[07.08.2014 05:46:53] [UC]-Affaire.Lucrative: Antoine: Are you drunk perhaps? I think you're rambling right now.
[07.08.2014 05:47:14] [UC]-Affaire.Lucrative: Antoine: I can assure you, if you sent us a message, we will have responded.
[07.08.2014 05:47:30] LR-Boob.Rabbit: ?: "Who cares... SO what to do with you now"
[07.08.2014 05:47:39] [UC]-Affaire.Lucrative: Antoine: Wait, wait, wait.
[07.08.2014 05:47:52] [UC]-Affaire.Lucrative: Antoine: So if you -did- send a message, you don't actually care if you got a response?
[07.08.2014 05:48:28] LR-Boob.Rabbit: ?: "We care... Maybe as grandma cares about young boys"
[07.08.2014 05:48:38] [UC]-Affaire.Lucrative: Antoine: I-- I don't even.
[07.08.2014 05:48:46] [UC]-Affaire.Lucrative: Antoine: What is that supposed to -mean-? Huh?
[07.08.2014 05:48:48] LR-Boob.Rabbit: ?: "Shortly we will solve that by this way..."
[07.08.2014 05:49:13] LR-Boob.Rabbit: ?: "You will pay us 5 milion credits now and give us 30 blue diamonds, ya?"
[07.08.2014 05:49:30] [UC]-Affaire.Lucrative: Antoine: To you?
[07.08.2014 05:49:44] LR-Boob.Rabbit: ?: "No... To my granny of course..."
[07.08.2014 05:49:50] LR-Boob.Rabbit: ?: "Of course to me"
[07.08.2014 05:49:56] [UC]-Affaire.Lucrative: Antoine: Well, you did say you care like grandmas.
[07.08.2014 05:50:10] [UC]-Affaire.Lucrative: Antoine: Would I be able to talk you down to three million and 75 diamonds?
[07.08.2014 05:50:12] LR-Boob.Rabbit: ?: "As... AS!!"
[07.08.2014 05:50:28] LR-Boob.Rabbit: ?: "Okay... 5 milion and 75 diamonds"
[07.08.2014 05:50:37] [UC]-Affaire.Lucrative: Antoine: No no, down, not up.
[07.08.2014 05:50:48] [UC]-Affaire.Lucrative: Antoine: Diamonds go up, credits go down.
[07.08.2014 05:50:52] [UC]-Affaire.Lucrative: Antoine: Oui?
[07.08.2014 05:50:58] LR-Boob.Rabbit: ?: "More you try to negotiate..."
[07.08.2014 05:51:04] LR-Boob.Rabbit: ?: "More we will get"
[07.08.2014 05:51:15] LR-Boob.Rabbit: ?: "And don't try that pigglet language"
[07.08.2014 05:51:29] LR-Boob.Rabbit: ?: "You are in Liberty... Not Piggletland"
[07.08.2014 05:51:35] [UC]-Affaire.Lucrative: Antoine: So, before I hand anything over, do you even care to try and work with us at all?
[07.08.2014 05:51:54] [UC]-Affaire.Lucrative: Antoine: I have reference to a communique your group sent. We did reply, as I said.
[07.08.2014 05:52:01] LR-Boob.Rabbit: ?: "If you have anything in mind... You will send it in Transmission, hunny"
[07.08.2014 05:52:08] [UC]-Affaire.Lucrative: *sighs*
[07.08.2014 05:52:19] [UC]-Affaire.Lucrative: Antoine: We already did. Perhaps if you were less drunk you'd check your mail?
[07.08.2014 05:52:41] LR-Boob.Rabbit: ?: "Maybe... However you are still in our turf... So money and diamonds please"
[07.08.2014 05:52:49] LR-Boob.Rabbit: ?: "5 milion credits and 75 diamonds"
[07.08.2014 05:52:58] [UC]-Affaire.Lucrative: Antoine: Right. Five million and seventy-five diamonds.
[07.08.2014 05:53:38] LR-Boob.Rabbit: ?: "Very nice... And kind of you dear"
[07.08.2014 05:53:48] [UC]-Affaire.Lucrative: Antoine: So you say.
[07.08.2014 05:53:56] LR-Boob.Rabbit: ?: "Bye bye then?"
[07.08.2014 05:54:05] [UC]-Affaire.Lucrative: Antoine: Uh, is that a yes?
[07.08.2014 05:54:21] LR-Boob.Rabbit: ?: "Yes to what?!"
[07.08.2014 05:54:29] [UC]-Affaire.Lucrative: Antoine: Never mind.
[07.08.2014 05:54:43] LR-Boob.Rabbit: ?: "Ten seconds and I will launch some torpedoes... Run!!"
[07.08.2014 05:55:45] LR-Boob.Rabbit: ?: "Tell your leaders that I love them!!!" *sends kiss*
[07.08.2014 05:55:57] [UC]-Affaire.Lucrative: Antoine: Tell your leaders to read their mail.
[07.08.2014 05:56:09] LR-Boob.Rabbit: ?: "Don't worry, hunny!"
[07.08.2014 05:56:20] Joe.Prager: People read mail these days?!
[07.08.2014 05:56:38] Heavenly.Stairway: Mail eh
[07.08.2014 05:56:43] Heavenly.Stairway: Not Gallic Mail
[07.08.2014 05:57:01] LR-Boob.Rabbit: ?: "Silly human using Pigglet language... You know... Piggletland!! Oui? and Oui, oui! Oui?" *she laughs*

You understand now what I went through just to keep from offing myself! I am aware that Membre Poitoux is looking to deal with these "Rogues", but I will gladly keep "taxing" their efforts to supply the Maltese until that gets figured out. I hope it's soon; I don't think I could mentally suffer such an indignity again.

Adieu!
