I wish this message was sent on a more positive subject, but unfortunately I must bring to your attention some unsavoury business. A ship bearing your identification was recently intercepted in Sigma-13, which is GMG territory and thus falls under Guild laws and regulations. That in itself is not an issue, however, this ship in particular was carrying a large amount of unregistered ammunition, which is where the problem lies as defined in law 2.2.
When confronted, the pilot of this ship immediately attempted to flee in violation of all instructions, which regrettably left me with no other choice but to open fire on their vessel. After a brief engagement, the ship was destroyed. The fate of the pilot is unknown. Please find attached the communications log of the incident.
[22.11.2015 02:41:19] GMG|Keiji.Namura: Good day, pilot. Please hold for a routine scan.
[22.11.2015 02:41:34] GMG|Keiji.Namura: Cut your engines immediately.
[22.11.2015 02:41:56] GMG|Keiji.Namura: You are carrying cargo deemed contraband by The Guild. Cut your engines or I will be forced to open fire.
[22.11.2015 02:42:03] GMG|Keiji.Namura: I will not ask again.
[22.11.2015 02:42:23] GMG|Keiji.Namura: Very well. Discharging weapons.
[22.11.2015 02:45:30] Death: {AFC}-Sutakatta[k] was put out of action by GMG|Keiji.Namura (Gun).
At this stage, The Guild does not intend on taking any further action. However, the events that have transpired are cause for concern, and as such I must ask the following questions.
Is it known where this cargo was acquired?
Is there any information to share on destination of this cargo?
Are the actions of this pilot representative of AFC as a whole?
I welcome a reply from a representative of the Club soon.
TO: GMG HQ
This is indeed some... rather concerning news. The club does apologies for the recklessness of this member. It is a rather shame what happened had to happen but perhaps for the best. It's a good thing you caught him and reported to me! I see I have some guys here that need to be given another... briefing...
To answer your questions:
1. Negative. It is not known where these munitions were collected.
2. Negative, again. We do not have any factual information that you are requesting on this topic.
3. Negative. These are not actions that the club deems appropriate for their members. These actions are rather the unfortunate decision of the individual member and will be dealt with to correct.
The Guild is willing to accept that these were the actions of a misguided individual and not sanctioned by AFC. We do not feel it necessary to pursue the matter further and are content to consider this case closed. Your assistance is greatly appreciated.
Earlier today, one of your Clubmembers visited the Sigma-13 system. The pilot of this ship failed to stop when requested for a routine scan, and took off into the nebula in direct violation of Guild directives. They did eventually come to a halt and submit to a scan, after a long and erratic chase. Due to this poor display, I directed them to vacate the Sigmas, after which they claimed to be heading to Frankfurt.
The speedy light fighter then decided to once again take off in a random direction, and promptly disappeared from scanner range.
[30.03.2016 13:10:42] {AFC}-Mighty.Shark[B]: Thrace: Howdy
[30.03.2016 13:10:44] GMG|Namura.Maru: Good day, pilot. Please hold for routine inspection.
[30.03.2016 13:11:07] GMG|Namura.Maru: AFC ship, please hold.
[30.03.2016 13:11:16] {AFC}-Mighty.Shark[B]: Thrace : Thats not nice
[30.03.2016 13:11:22] GMG|Namura.Maru: Failure to comply with Guild directives may result in ship destruction.
[30.03.2016 13:12:29] {AFC}-Mighty.Shark[B]: wooohoooo
[30.03.2016 13:13:58] {AFC}-Mighty.Shark[B]: Thrace : Thrace: Ok Sir, wat do you want?
[30.03.2016 13:14:23] GMG|Namura.Maru: Please explain why you have failed to stop your shop when directed.
[30.03.2016 13:14:47] {AFC}-Mighty.Shark[B]: Thrace : Sorry i am a racer i fly always fast
[30.03.2016 13:14:54] GMG|Namura.Maru: This system is not a race track.
[30.03.2016 13:15:10] {AFC}-Mighty.Shark[B]: Thrace : I know, sorry
[30.03.2016 13:15:21] GMG|Namura.Maru: Ships are required to stop and submit to routine cargo scans when asked.
[30.03.2016 13:15:51] GMG|Namura.Maru: In the future, you are to comply.
[30.03.2016 13:15:54] {AFC}-Mighty.Shark[B]: Thrace : Understood, i will stop next time sir
[30.03.2016 13:16:05] GMG|Namura.Maru: For now, as a result of your behaviour, you are to vacate the Sigma systems.
[30.03.2016 13:16:08] {AFC}-Mighty.Shark[B]: Thrace : Copy that
[30.03.2016 13:16:12] GMG|Namura.Maru: You may proceed to either Honshu or Frankfurt.
[30.03.2016 13:16:48] {AFC}-Mighty.Shark[B]: Thrace : Hmmm- i will go to frankfurt Sir
[30.03.2016 13:16:56] GMG|Namura.Maru: We shall proceed.
[30.03.2016 13:17:40] {AFC}-Mighty.Shark[B]: Thrace : Sayonara Namura San!
[30.03.2016 13:18:45] GMG|Namura.Maru: Where are you going? This is not the direction to the Frankfurt gate.
[30.03.2016 13:18:53] {AFC}-Mighty.Shark[B]:
Please inform your club that Sigma-13 is in fact not a playground, and Guild law is to be followed at all times in Guild space.
I come to you once again to report an incident with a member of your Club. A ship, marked as {AFC}-Maniac.Falcon[B] greeted me some hours ago in orbit of Planet Kyushu, Kyushu.
After a brief exchange of words, it became clear the pilot of this ship, someone claiming to be named Alex, was attempting to extort credits from my accounts, enforced by death threats. Despite being warned otherwise, Alex disrupted the cruise engines of my ship multiple times, as well as continually taking down Kusari tradelanes.
Alex even went so far as to open fire, as well as discharge a number of mines in the vicinity of my ship, causing damage to my shielding. It was at this time I was forced to act in self defence, eventually destroying the rogue Series CX "Scimitar" Border Worlds Light Fighter.
[15.09.2016 20:01:14] {AFC}-Maniac.Falcon[B]: Alex: Hey Namura
[15.09.2016 20:01:22] GMG|Keiji:Namura: Good day, Archangel.
[15.09.2016 20:01:31] {AFC}-Maniac.Falcon[B]: Alex: What you are doing here?
[15.09.2016 20:01:40] GMG|Keiji:Namura: I am on Guild business.
[15.09.2016 20:02:13] GMG|Keiji:Namura: Might I be of assistance?
[15.09.2016 20:02:31] {AFC}-Maniac.Falcon[B]: Alex: Haha, no please no
[15.09.2016 20:02:47] GMG|Keiji:Namura: Very well. I shall proceed.
[15.09.2016 20:02:50] GMG|Keiji:Namura: Please enjoy your flight.
[15.09.2016 20:02:50] 2016-09-15 20:02:55 SMT Traffic control alert: GMG|Keiji:Namura has requested to dock
[15.09.2016 20:03:13] {AFC}-Maniac.Falcon[B]: Alex: Wait
[15.09.2016 20:03:27] GMG|Keiji:Namura: Archangel, please do not disrupt my engines.
[15.09.2016 20:03:48] {AFC}-Maniac.Falcon[B]: Alex: Tell me a reason why not
[15.09.2016 20:04:14] GMG|Keiji:Namura: Disrupting my engines will be viewed as a hostile action. You have no reason to harass my passage through Kusari space.
[15.09.2016 20:04:32] {AFC}-Maniac.Falcon[B]: Alex: True
[15.09.2016 20:04:53] GMG|Keiji:Namura: Is there anything I can help you with?
[15.09.2016 20:05:03] {AFC}-Maniac.Falcon[B]: Alex: But i think you could suport the Archangels with 2 mill!
[15.09.2016 20:05:18] GMG|Keiji:Namura: I am afraid not. I must continue with my business.
[15.09.2016 20:06:01] {AFC}-Maniac.Falcon[B]: Alex: Hmmm. you want to gimme 2 mill?
[15.09.2016 20:06:09] GMG|Keiji:Namura: I am afraid I do not.
[15.09.2016 20:06:19] {AFC}-Maniac.Falcon[B]: Alex: Thats bad
[15.09.2016 20:06:59] {AFC}-Maniac.Falcon[B]: Alex: What we do know?
[15.09.2016 20:07:10] GMG|Keiji:Namura: I must proceed with my business. Good day.
[15.09.2016 20:07:47] {AFC}-Maniac.Falcon[B]: Alex: Last chance
[15.09.2016 20:08:30] GMG|Keiji:Namura: Repeating disruption of my travel will be viewed as hostile action, and I will be forced to discharge weapons.
[15.09.2016 20:08:37] GMG|Keiji:Namura: Please do not disrupt my engines again.
[15.09.2016 20:09:14] {AFC}-Maniac.Falcon[B]: Alex: You pay or die
[15.09.2016 20:11:26] Death: {AFC}-Maniac.Falcon[B] was put out of action by GMG|Keiji:Namura (Gun).
This is the third transgression your Club has committed against The Guild. As a result of this most recent disruption of Guild business, as well as overtly hostile behaviour, The Guild is seeking 25,000,000 credits in compensation, which can be transferred to GMG|Bank at your nearest convenience. I am sure this matter may be settled without the involvement of Kusari, and our two organisations can continue to go about our business without issue.
Before I say anything else, you should know these types of actions are not based out of our club's code. We do not condone these types of actions by our pilots and as a club, we do not take responsibility on behalf of pilot as he is responsible for his actions here.
Having said that, I had managed to find the pilot after tracking him down at one of the bars in Honshu. He looked pretty beat up too.
No offense, as well, but I figured something was wrong when I read in the report that the transport gunners managed to take him down.
Turns out the pilot was completely pissed-out drunk when he decided to fly. He told me he was doing well but vaguely remembers meeting you. From what he told me, he messed you guys up with the Hogosha. He was pretty embarrassed when I told him what actually happened and he said he'd pay the money in compensation.
You will got a notification from him soon.
Cheers,
