Aww! A costumer! Welcome my friend. Of course, Zoners are free to buy our products after they ordered them. Although I have to confess that requests like this one are quite rare. Most people rather ask for Talons and Stingers; So I have good and bad news for you: I am afraid to tell you that we don't have any Spatials left in our Docking-Bays right now. But the good news is, that we have two of them in our dry dock on Singapore as I ordered them three months ago to see how they do in all-day routine and to eventually do some fine-tuning on its blue-prints. Now there shouldn't be a problem with reserving one of them for you, zoner, because I think that I will take a rather long time to waste my first exemplar, hah!
It will be shipped to the Hood, since I know that you guys use to hang out nearby on Gran Canaria - most likely within the next 14 days. I will tell our local arms dealer that you will be coming. He will charge an appropriate price.

So have fun in the radiation and all!

Good livings, IMG

Its been a long time since our last communication. Our last area of business went on into the economic departments. My senior economic officer has prepared a shipment of H-fuel ready to recieve its drop-off locataion. We expect a vessel to be in space awaiting the load, if not we will access the automated computer system and drop the load in the storage area. As always our security officers are at your service when they are in space for your transports. I hope our economic officer will be hearing from you soon. Thank you for your time.

Subject: Atlantia patrol report

*transmission begins*

i taken the Atlantia out for a patrol of Bretonian space today starting from leeds to Freistadt base, in Leeds there was a couple of BMM but they choose not to say anything at all to me which is probably wise since their ships are no match for ours, so i carried on towards Cambridge checking my long range scanners and noticed that the BMM transport named 'Devon' has been in Omega 7 for awhile so i proceeded towards Freistadt but must of had a tip off or something because soon as i entered Omega 3 the BMM pilot had suddenly moved into Stuttgart then proceeded towards Hamburg, which my scanners also picked up 2 BLS ships in the system so lets hope they caught him hehehe.

after my patrol towards Freistadt i headed back to Cardiff and noticed a pilot was fighting within our field at Cardiff against some rookie Corsair pilots i asked him if he needed assistance (since his bots and bats had ran out and he was down to 34% hull) but he didnt reply and ran away shortly after initial contact so i proceeded to dock at Cardiff for a round on me for a good patrol

Today, me and Escort Pilot Rhodri Evans met at Java to move on to one of those fancy Combat-Simulators the Colonials use in Tau-44. On our way to the 44 Jump Hole, our scanners showed RoS activity. But since they didn't seem to attack any vessels of fellow miners, we decided to stay on our course to 44. Arrived at our destination, we met the pilot of the colonial viper "Freeride" and had some talk as suddenly an Outcast aligned Pirate named "HFole" Jumped in. The moment we came back to the hole, he already got scared off by the guards of Tau-44. I fallowed him and managed to rip down his shield and scratch his hull before he had to hit the cruse.
As I was back in 23, I noticed heavy Outcast activity in the system as they rubbed a couple of traders. Via IMG com-channels, I called the colonial and Mr Evans in, to friendly ask the pirtes to leave IMG space. But unluckily, their intelligence wasn't as impressive as their equipment and they forced a fight on us. What fallowed was nothing but a small skirmish in which we destroyed every single Sabre Fighters with mines, after disrupting their shields. The first outcast of the 101st was destroyed by the Pilot of the "Freeride", the second vessel was ripped apart by Mr. Evans and finally, the last one was blown off the skies by my explosives.
Luckily, we suffered no losses this time as our fast victory was the result of the fragile composition of the Sabre's Hull-Parts.

Hopefully this will be the last Pirate attack on our mining grounds for the next few days.

i began a patrol of the nearby area of Cardiff in the Atlantia but nothing happened but soon as i checked my long range sensors i noticed 3 BMM vessels were hanging around Leeds, and since we all know how mutch trouble they like to make i proceeded to check out the Jump Hole aswell as the planet to see if they was upto anything to threaten our operations but thankfully they was not doing anything, as normal, and were just hanging around talking

shortly after a talkt with them and trading several insults over the BMM vessels decided to resume their business and left so i proceeded back to a quiet Cardiff

*transmission begins*

soon as the Endeavour un-docked from Cardiff it had received a distress call from a Liberty Naval ship named LNS Niagra Falls about an incoming Phatom piloting a Battleship and replied that the Endeavour isnt equipped to take on a Battleship without support and the Niaga Falls replied stating they have another 2 Battlecruisers, a few Bounty Hunters and a Bomber on hand to assist so i agree'd and proceeded to the New York system as the Phantom menance does threaten the human race and while wondering why they would needed our help but soon as i arrived at Planet Los Angeles the LNS Niagra Falls reported that the Phantom had fled the battle and that the Endeavour was not needed

unfortunatly while getting that transmission i bumped into another BMM vessel who mistaken me for the Atlantia which would indicate that they would need new sensors since the Endeavour is completly different to the Atlantia in every way

also while on route escort pilot Rhondri Evans undocked from Java and i have assigned him to patrol the area

currently an Ion storm has hit and sensors are down

Subject:Odd occurrence in Magellan
*Begin Transmission*

I was flying engine compants, pharmaceuticals, and a couple of miners from Colorado to Freeport 4. It was a fairly easy trip until I pulled up to the station. Hovering not a thousand meters in front of me were two extremely large battleships holding position in front of the freeport. They were surrounded by the wreckage of ships, and I didn't waste any time in docking.

However, after I was safe on board i noticed the comm was silent, no cries for help from unfortunate traders, and no demands from the two behemoths. I cautiously left the station, slipped behind it, and joined a firefly who was watching the two pirates. They were only attacking the NPC classed ships totally ignoring us PCs. The other trader, a fine fellow named Patrico Brillone, reported that he had watched the two chase a zoner transport into the base and had been holding position sense. we decided I should try to communicate, to which I asked what the two's intention was. Neither responded to my hails. Brillone had to be off to Colorado, he was carrying luxury food, but he promised to tell the authorities, and I to keep him informed on the situation in Magellan.

I tried several more times to hail the two, ( to no available) and scanned them both. One was an Outcast dreadnaught [HF] Ven'gyr and carried several pilots and nothing else. The other was a Liberty Cruiser [HF] Goldenflame and carried no cargo. They remained in position and continued to destroy NPCs. The zoner ship left port several times and redocked when it spotted the cruisers, I managed to scan it once and found a nomad and a power cell aboard, Brillone who had scanned him earlier conformed the Zoner was carrying nomad equipment. I was unable to read the zoners name due to odd interference, which I speculate was from the nomad.

Brillone was flying back and relayed an odd rumor that the Liberty Rouges in California were throwing around. They claimed someone was laying regency to Magellan. About this time the Zoner left the 'Verse and the two Pirates left the freeport silently and disappeared beyond my radar. Brillone and I checked our facts compiled evidence and then i docked again with the Freeport. I took a quick break to refresh myself and then logged on to the neural-net to post this. I don't know what to make of this but I felt it needed to be posted.

Greetings. I have found myself in need of slightly more powerful fighter than my Collector. I would like to put in a purchase order for one of your wonderful Raven's Talons. The ship is needed to fend off the wild and other undesirables around Yanagi and Bornholm. I have flown a flight simulator of the Talon and I must say that I am impressed.

If this is agreeable I shall transfer the money to your associates on Gran Canaria.

Cesar out.
