Greetings once again, citizens and denizens of Rheinland. I must apologize for the previous broadcast, I was quite rude for not introducing myself... but discretion is always required when you can't keep your own people safe. It's not like any of you had an idea what it takes to help people realize about the crude oppression they have been living in until now.
I, Ji Hyun of the Guild, would like to extend my condolences to those widows, widowers, sons and daughters of the many Police officers who perished at Fulda. But may this serve as a reminder that this tragic event isn't the result of several deluded Miners with a NEMP bomb in their hands: It's the result of your government's hostile approach against our claimed territories in the Sigmas.
Unfortunately, it looks like your Federal Government has only issued a statement where all Gas Miners Guild have been banned from Rheinland space. While we can understand the obvious reasons for this ban -not like we wanted to roam peacefully around your House-, we did not see any announcement about the Rheinland's invasion force being withdrawn from Sigma 15 yet.
After seeing how our demands are met with mockery, we feel forced to deliver you a second message:
The battleship Hanjin, rightfully claimed by the Guild after being disabled in the war against the Imperial Rheinland and now manned by guildsmen, has been deployed in Sigma 15 and is ready to bombard both the docking ring in the Hammersee moon and its orbital outpost, as well as engaging the battleship Bayern in order to drive your House influence out of our space.
Our demand is pretty clear: Withdraw your forces from Sigma 15, and our wings currently besieging the surroundings of Fulda will be recalled together with the battleship Hanjin. It is up to you, federal government of Rheinland, whether the bodycount keeps rising or not.

Saw this s*** stir up a huge freaking part of Neural Net.
I hope you die soon, bastard. Guys, I'll send fifty million credits to anyone who will destroy this battleship.

I will also order everyone a drink for your victory in any bar I'll be around.
No one wants these animals in the Guild.

Sirius would do well to remember that the true name of the vessel, assuming the images are accurate, is the battleship KKS- Hohenschwangau and not the Hanjin. Please notify federal or partisnal authorities upon acquisition of the vessel, as the vessel is a registered war grave. Simply destroying it is tantamount to destroying a tomb. It is also a fate far too pleasant for the virus defaming its hull.
Regards,
Armin Jansen.

I see you have taken aim at the fringes. Typical of what I would expect from rogue Guild members. Clearly you aren't aware of the fact that an aging Rheinwehr battleship is no match for a modern and up-to-date Rheinland Kriegsflotte.
I'll give you the one warning before you attack my headquarters. Turn yourselves around and leave the Hammersee bastion be, or you will be in for a nasty surprise once you close in.
The Abschnitt does not joke when it comes to our home. Expect a cold welcome and a swift deportation back to the hole you crawled out of.
