Guten Abend Officers,
as i was talking to Doktor Wilke from MFE close to Planet Hamburg, a ship with scrambled IFF neared our location. It kept distance of about 8 klicks from Hamburg. After a few words i recalled having spotted this particular signature only days earlier while en route to another situation.
This time the pilot told me he had stopped two others carrying alien weaponry over in Thuringia. I did request proof of this, as this in itself already posed an issue. I was given logs - which you find here. Confusingly the pilot dodged most of my more aimed questions, claimed he suffered from anmesia and only recalls the last couple of days. Yet he was convinced patrolling Thuringia was part of his former tasks. I grew suspicious of this, still gave potential agents of the MND the benefit of the doubt. As i opted to take a scan and see if there was just some technical issues with his vessel, i quickly found out this was none of ours. The IFF and ID gave no conclusive evidence whatsoever, the carried weapons on the other hand raised not just my eyebrows. Additionally the refusal to cooperate and simply leave through Liberty lead to hostilities. Soldier Friedhelm Winter as well as a present Technocrat, Lazurith, aided me in this.
[30.11.2022 00:05:11] [RM]Obl-Trau.Habermeyer: ... so much for that then...
[30.11.2022 00:05:50] F-88: ?: You know... leaving when I was talking to you is kind of not respectful.
[30.11.2022 00:06:16] [RM]Obl-Trau.Habermeyer: Well - it is you again. Whoever you exactly are. *Traudel tilts her head a bit, then clears her throat.* One could argue
[30.11.2022 00:06:32] [MFE]~Healing.Wings: Sonja: oh who is that? you can take care of him if you want traudel, i will cook. *she smiled and Cuts some Mushrooms.*
[30.11.2022 00:06:33] [RM]Obl-Trau.Habermeyer: hiding is the same kind of less respectful.
[30.11.2022 00:07:20] [RM]Obl-Trau.Habermeyer: I am not even sure who exactly that is, Sonja. That, however, may change today. Who knows - future is uncertain as always.
[30.11.2022 00:07:20] F-88: ?: I was talking about the other day. And I was about to say, you should take more attention to any civilian.
[30.11.2022 00:07:43] [RM]Obl-Trau.Habermeyer: So did i.
[30.11.2022 00:08:31] F-88: ?: I should be rewarded... I stopped some carrying exotic weapons. If you see what I mean.
[30.11.2022 00:09:27] [RM]Obl-Trau.Habermeyer: 'Exotic weapons'? That may depend on ones perspective. To some weapons manufactured in another House already count as
[30.11.2022 00:09:41] [RM]Obl-Trau.Habermeyer: exotic. So bitte - do go on.
[30.11.2022 00:09:49] F-88: ?: Oh no. Much more exotic.
[30.11.2022 00:10:13] F-88: ?: Exotic as... alien origine.
[30.11.2022 00:11:06] [RM]Obl-Trau.Habermeyer: Ah, that sort of exotic. The problematic sort. You have my attention, 'stopped' ... how? Who was it? Where?
[30.11.2022 00:11:42] F-88: ?: Thuringia and two freelancers. One of them was carrying those said weapons.
[30.11.2022 00:13:05] [RM]Obl-Trau.Habermeyer: *Low grumbling could be heard for a brief moment.* ... callsigns? Ships used? Is there any proof of that? Blackbox recordings,
[30.11.2022 00:13:09] [RM]Obl-Trau.Habermeyer: guncam footage...?
[30.11.2022 00:13:35] F-88: ?: I have probably spared a recording.
[30.11.2022 00:14:04] F-88: ?: And their ships were... I think Gallia's origin?
[30.11.2022 00:15:18] [RM]Obl-Trau.Habermeyer: Interesting. Did they say anything, how ... did you stop them? Was it successfull even? If so - what have you done with
[30.11.2022 00:15:21] [RM]Obl-Trau.Habermeyer: said exotic weaponry?
[30.11.2022 00:16:25] A/)-Lazurith: Oh, hallo.
[30.11.2022 00:16:36] F-88: ?: They told me I was a scum and to fuck off. I only disabled their ships and destroyed the weapons.
[30.11.2022 00:16:54] A/)-Lazurith: Ahh, I remember you- Oh, and I remember you, too.
[30.11.2022 00:17:23] [RM]Obl-Trau.Habermeyer: ... and why would they do that? Call you 'scum'. This is peculiar situation. Might be assault on civilians. Or indeed
[30.11.2022 00:17:33] [RM]Obl-Trau.Habermeyer: assistance in keeping those kinds of weapons in check.
[30.11.2022 00:17:54] [RM]Obl-Trau.Habermeyer: If anything i'll require any recordings to that - submit them to either the Rheinwehr or me in particular, it makes little
[30.11.2022 00:17:55] [RM]Obl-Trau.Habermeyer: difference.
[30.11.2022 00:18:06] [RM]Obl-Trau.Habermeyer: Ahh... hallo Lazurith.
[30.11.2022 00:18:14] F-88: ?: Do I look like I know the reason why they called me a scum? No.
[30.11.2022 00:19:23] A/)-Lazurith: This is the second time I'm seeing this visor-scrambling fellow. Is it causing you any trouble?
[30.11.2022 00:19:31] [RM]Obl-Trau.Habermeyer: Might be that unwilling IFF to show anything properly... people tend to get jumpy around those that hide things.
[30.11.2022 00:19:51] F-88: ?: Everyone hides things.
[30.11.2022 00:19:58] [RM]Obl-Trau.Habermeyer: Nein, not directly. Depends on the recording i may or may not receive. And even then only passively if at all.
[30.11.2022 00:21:22] A/)-Lazurith: If you've got things to hide, then why worry so much?
[30.11.2022 00:21:57] [MFE]~Healing.Wings: Sonja: oh good day Auxo Ship. well traudel are you hungry? i made you a Dogy Bag in case you need to go fast again.
[30.11.2022 00:22:10] A/)-Lazurith: N-no, I'm fine. Really.
[30.11.2022 00:22:46] A/)-Lazurith: It looks like I'll be here for a while, actually.
[30.11.2022 00:23:36] A/)-Lazurith: Everything under control over here?
[30.11.2022 00:23:43] [RM]Obl-Trau.Habermeyer: Ja, about that. It'll most likely be take-out this time, Sonja. Not going to stay around to enjoy it i'm afraid.
[30.11.2022 00:24:48] [RM]Obl-Trau.Habermeyer: As i said - nothing directly to worry about just now. Even though the evasive nature of our unknown and unnamed friend here
[30.11.2022 00:24:56] [RM]Obl-Trau.Habermeyer: might lead to that sooner or later.
[30.11.2022 00:25:00] [RM]Obl-Trau.Habermeyer: Depends on said recordings.
[30.11.2022 00:25:05] [MFE]~Healing.Wings: Sonja: thats fine Traudel. i have also Packed a Nice Donought into it that i got from Liberty Earlyer. *she smiled and Puts---
[30.11.2022 00:25:13] [MFE]~Healing.Wings: --the Box in the Airlock*
[30.11.2022 00:25:16] A/)-Lazurith: Well, it's alright. If they bite, we'll bite harder.
[30.11.2022 00:25:27] F-88: ?: Oh?
[30.11.2022 00:25:39] A/)-Lazurith: It's called self-defense.
[30.11.2022 00:26:01] F-88: ?: I heard something else. As if you wanted to challenge me.
[30.11.2022 00:26:08] A/)-Lazurith: I'm a researcher, not a crazed gunman. Why would I want that.
[30.11.2022 00:26:14] [RM]Obl-Trau.Habermeyer: My my - getting spoiled here. *Amused.* Too kind of you, Sonja. Much obliged. I'll be ...getting that quick, then.
[30.11.2022 00:26:33] F-88: ?: I don't know. I barely know your group.
[30.11.2022 00:26:59] A/)-Lazurith: We excel in some things Sirius fails to accomplish.
[30.11.2022 00:27:03] A/)-Lazurith: Not to brag, of course.
[30.11.2022 00:27:36] F-88: ?: Heh.
[30.11.2022 00:27:47] F-88: ?: Right those recording...
[30.11.2022 00:28:20] F-88: ?: Care to send me your coordinates, military?
[30.11.2022 00:28:35] A/)-Lazurith: Coordinates? What, did a crash happen somewhere?
[30.11.2022 00:29:03] A/)-Lazurith: Someone died? Why are you asking this oh-so-fair Military fraulein for something so specific?
[30.11.2022 00:29:06] F-88: ?: What I meant is the way to send her the recording.
[30.11.2022 00:29:11] A/)-Lazurith: Ah!
[30.11.2022 00:29:13] A/)-Lazurith: My mistake.
[30.11.2022 00:29:18] [MFE]~Healing.Wings: Sonja: your Welcome Traudel. A sweet one needs some Sweets to stay like this. Thats what my Grany alwasy said to me.
[30.11.2022 00:29:18] [RM]Obl-Trau.Habermeyer: Indeed. As i said - either to the Rheinwehr or to me. Both ways are fine. Otherwise all i have to act upon is the potential
[30.11.2022 00:29:23] [RM]Obl-Trau.Habermeyer: assault on ... well. Civilians.
[30.11.2022 00:29:47] A/)-Lazurith: Ah, a report. What an outstanding citizen.
[30.11.2022 00:29:48] [RM]Obl-Trau.Habermeyer: Ah, just use the usual methods. Address it to Oberleutnant Traudel Habermeyer of the Kaiserliche Rheinwehr, or the Rheinwehr it
[30.11.2022 00:29:54] [RM]Obl-Trau.Habermeyer: -self.
[30.11.2022 00:30:12] A/)-Lazurith: If everyone was like you, there'd be no crime at all.
[30.11.2022 00:30:33] [RM]Obl-Trau.Habermeyer: Wishful thinking... but wonders do happen.
[30.11.2022 00:30:35] A/)-Lazurith: Which would probably make the Sirian Creatans very sad.
[30.11.2022 00:30:40] A/)-Lazurith: But alas.
[30.11.2022 00:32:09] A/)-Lazurith: I mean, wishful thinking is what brought us into the stars, right?
[30.11.2022 00:32:38] A/)-Lazurith: Some people were desperate to leave their planet thousands of years ago, and look where we are now.
[30.11.2022 00:32:44] [RM]Obl-Trau.Habermeyer: I concur. Wishful thinking is what got a lot of things moving.
[30.11.2022 00:33:00] [MFE]~Healing.Wings: Sonja: well i would not mind Runing out of Work.
[30.11.2022 00:33:13] [MFE]~Healing.Wings: Sonja: A doctor haves way to much to do anyways.
[30.11.2022 00:33:42] A/)-Lazurith: Yeah, you get early retirement, federal perks and you can finally buy a cozy mountain hut in New Berlin.
[30.11.2022 00:34:08] A/)-Lazurith: Okay maybe that is too much wishful thinking. We all know retirement is a lie.
[30.11.2022 00:34:34] [RM]Obl-Trau.Habermeyer: Ah, the good Frau Doktor Wilke isn't part of any Rheinland medical institution. Something tells me she will not see retirement
[30.11.2022 00:34:36] [RM]Obl-Trau.Habermeyer: anytime soon.
[30.11.2022 00:35:20] F-88: ?: Alright. Sent.
[30.11.2022 00:36:07] [MFE]~Healing.Wings: Sonja: *laughs sad* you have no idea how much work a doctor haves these days.
[30.11.2022 00:36:17] [RM]Obl-Trau.Habermeyer: Ah, very well. Mhmh ... give me a moment to review that then.
[30.11.2022 00:37:53] [MFE]~Healing.Wings: Sonja: i hope you like it
[30.11.2022 00:38:47] [RM]Obl-Trau.Habermeyer: Mh-mhm... no, both callsigns are not known to me. But that doesn't necessarily has to mean all that much. No visual footage of
[30.11.2022 00:38:54] [RM]Obl-Trau.Habermeyer: said weapons and or cargo holds...?
[30.11.2022 00:39:14] F-88: ?: Totally forgot. But I don't lie.
[30.11.2022 00:40:10] A/)-Lazurith: Ah, no guncam shots?
[30.11.2022 00:40:32] [RM]Obl-Trau.Habermeyer: All i have on that is your word. From someone that scrambles their IFF. Alright. Makes this slightly more problematic.
[30.11.2022 00:40:55] [RM]Obl-Trau.Habermeyer: Now - ... why did you care all that much about their exotic weaponry? You took a risk in this attempt to remove them.
[30.11.2022 00:41:25] F-88: ?: Well, they should be aware to not have them.
[30.11.2022 00:41:53] A/)-Lazurith: Not to be nosy, but are you sure this happened within your area of jurisdiction?
[30.11.2022 00:42:02] [MFE]~Healing.Wings: *sonja smiled and Activates the Docking Collar of the Ship for Traudel to dock and Colect the food*
[30.11.2022 00:42:26] F-88: ?: I can clearly confirm.
[30.11.2022 00:42:35] A/)-Lazurith: Ah.
[30.11.2022 00:43:30] A/)-Lazurith: Well, up to you, Frau Gesetz.
[30.11.2022 00:43:38] A/)-Lazurith: D-did I say that right?
[30.11.2022 00:43:58] [RM]Obl-Trau.Habermeyer: ... so ... you are telling me ... your area of jurisdiction is ... Thuringia... ? *Lifting a brow.*
[30.11.2022 00:44:02] [RM]Obl-Trau.Habermeyer: You did.
[30.11.2022 00:44:07] A/)-Lazurith: Oh, phew.
[30.11.2022 00:44:08] [RM]Obl-Trau.Habermeyer: I'll be getting that soon, Sonja. Pardon me.
[30.11.2022 00:44:37] F-88: ?: Well, I cover this part because, who knows what can happen.
[30.11.2022 00:45:16] A/)-Lazurith: But you're not part of the Rheinland law enforcement. Are you?
[30.11.2022 00:45:26] A/)-Lazurith: The fraulein over there is.
[30.11.2022 00:45:42] [RM]Obl-Trau.Habermeyer: You do know this looks awfully fishy? You are not recognised as part of Rheinland law enforcement. Especially not with that IFF
[30.11.2022 00:45:43] [RM]Obl-Trau.Habermeyer: there.
[30.11.2022 00:45:45] A/)-Lazurith: And I can't tell since you took so much effort into encrypting your IFF. It's scrambled like an egg.
[30.11.2022 00:46:28] F-88: ?: Up to you.
[30.11.2022 00:46:47] A/)-Lazurith: What? You can't just make a report and leave it to guesswork.
[30.11.2022 00:47:34] A/)-Lazurith: AFTER claiming that you're part of the law enforcement too!
[30.11.2022 00:47:42] F-88: ?: Look.
[30.11.2022 00:48:01] [RM]Obl-Trau.Habermeyer: A rather problematic claim. I advise to chose the next words very carefully.
[30.11.2022 00:48:05] F-88: ?: I forgot who I was. I just remember those four past days.
[30.11.2022 00:48:54] [RM]Obl-Trau.Habermeyer: Hold on a second ... ... what? And you have not considered checking in with any ... medical personnel?
[30.11.2022 00:49:14] F-88: ?: No.
[30.11.2022 00:49:18] [RM]Obl-Trau.Habermeyer: ... ...
[30.11.2022 00:49:19] [RM]Obl-Trau.Habermeyer: Why?
[30.11.2022 00:49:39] F-88: ?: Because it is not important.
[30.11.2022 00:49:45] A/)-Lazurith: Not only that but you also coincidentally remembered to be part of the law enforcement.
[30.11.2022 00:49:46] Friedhelm.Winter: Greetings
[30.11.2022 00:49:47] [RM]Obl-Trau.Habermeyer: Nonsense.
[30.11.2022 00:49:54] [RM]Obl-Trau.Habermeyer: Guten Tag, Winter.
[30.11.2022 00:49:56] A/)-Lazurith: I mean, if you were an agent that went AWOL you should really report that, stat.
[30.11.2022 00:50:28] A/)-Lazurith: I don't know the laws here but that kind of behaviour might put you on probation.
[30.11.2022 00:50:41] Friedhelm.Winter: Need assistance, Habermeyer?
[30.11.2022 00:50:51] [MFE]~Healing.Wings: Sonja: did i heard the Word Medical Personal? does somone need medical help?
[30.11.2022 00:51:01] F-88: ?: No.
[30.11.2022 00:51:12] [RM]Obl-Trau.Habermeyer: Only in unraveling what exactly is happening. Apparently we have a severe case of amnesia here.
[30.11.2022 00:51:58] A/)-Lazurith: I'm just saying. Mental issues might cause you to enact in hostile behaviour against yourself or the ones around you.
[30.11.2022 00:52:17] A/)-Lazurith: And if there's a real schtickler among the police officers they might apprehend you too for that.
[30.11.2022 00:52:30] [MFE]~Healing.Wings: Sonja: oh amnesia is a Serious Illness. i should know this then i once sufferd from it myself.
[30.11.2022 00:53:24] [RM]Obl-Trau.Habermeyer: First things first - whatever you may think you used to be is, at this point, impossible to verify. Hence i strongly advise
[30.11.2022 00:53:39] [RM]Obl-Trau.Habermeyer: against doing again what you just told me about. And stay away from that particular system.
[30.11.2022 00:54:31] F-88: ?: Why should I?
[30.11.2022 00:54:39] [RM]Obl-Trau.Habermeyer: That was no suggestion.
[30.11.2022 00:55:15] [RM]Obl-Trau.Habermeyer: Furthermore, i will take a good scan of your vessel and equipment. As that IFF is basically useless for any means of proper
[30.11.2022 00:55:17] [RM]Obl-Trau.Habermeyer: identification.
[30.11.2022 00:55:46] A/)-Lazurith: They're doing this for your own good.
[30.11.2022 00:56:03] F-88: ?: I rather prefer some distance.
[30.11.2022 00:56:29] A/)-Lazurith: Can't stop the law.
[30.11.2022 00:56:53] [RM]Obl-Trau.Habermeyer: I urge you to cooperate with a simple scan. It's nothing more at this point. But refusal will lead to avoidable problems.
[30.11.2022 00:57:22] F-88: ?: ...
[30.11.2022 00:57:36] F-88: [He rolls his eyes.]
[30.11.2022 00:58:00] F-88: ?: Fine...
[30.11.2022 00:58:13] [RM]Obl-Trau.Habermeyer: Most appreciated. Be glad you ran into me and not those that waste little time with incidents like these.
[30.11.2022 00:59:05] [MFE]~Healing.Wings: Sonja: aye traudel is a Nice Cop.
[30.11.2022 00:59:29] [RM]Obl-Trau.Habermeyer: Not part of the Polizei, but i get what you mean. Now. Alright ... let me see here... proceeding to scan.
[30.11.2022 01:00:52] [RM]Obl-Trau.Habermeyer: Yea that IFF is useless even up close. You ought to fix that as soon as possible. Rest seems fi-... ... what are those readings
[30.11.2022 01:00:58] [RM]Obl-Trau.Habermeyer: i get from your weaponry....?
[30.11.2022 01:01:15] F-88: ?: Prototypes.
[30.11.2022 01:01:29] F-88: ?: A bit unstable but it's safe.
[30.11.2022 01:02:03] [RM]Obl-Trau.Habermeyer: I'm much more concerned by what they might be based upon, less so them being safe or not.
[30.11.2022 01:02:53] F-88: ?: There's nothing to be concern about those.
[30.11.2022 01:03:05] F-88: ?: I think.
[30.11.2022 01:04:09] [RM]Obl-Trau.Habermeyer: And why is that? I do have something to be concerned about. Even if these are prototypes... the one who currently wields them
[30.11.2022 01:04:32] [RM]Obl-Trau.Habermeyer: is not authorized to do so here within Rheinland. Unless your IFF hides being Rheinwehr or similar...
[30.11.2022 01:05:23] F-88: ?: As you said, I will need to 'fix' that. But if I am being kept here, I am afraid we are both going nowhere.
[30.11.2022 01:06:00] [RM]Obl-Trau.Habermeyer: You need to fix that indeed. And nein, i won't keep you here. This little detail alone makes it unmistakenly clear. As things
[30.11.2022 01:06:20] [RM]Obl-Trau.Habermeyer: stand - you are to be banned from Rheinland until these are either unmounted from your vessel... or you are otherwise cleared
[30.11.2022 01:06:22] [RM]Obl-Trau.Habermeyer: for re-entry.
[30.11.2022 01:06:33] [RM]Obl-Trau.Habermeyer: I refuse to issue a fine, you have been cooperative so far.
[30.11.2022 01:06:38] Friedhelm.Winter: contact on scanner
[30.11.2022 01:07:00] Friedhelm.Winter: false alarm. a civilian.
[30.11.2022 01:07:04] [RM]Obl-Trau.Habermeyer: Mhm.
[30.11.2022 01:07:20] Friedhelm.Winter: I can escort this guy to the border, Habermeyer.
[30.11.2022 01:07:41] F-88: ?: I'm fine on my own.
[30.11.2022 01:07:48] [RM]Obl-Trau.Habermeyer: Irrelevant.
[30.11.2022 01:07:56] A/)-Lazurith: Wouldn't be much of an "escort" if you get away scot free you know.
[30.11.2022 01:08:01] Friedhelm.Winter: As you say.
[30.11.2022 01:08:03] [RM]Obl-Trau.Habermeyer: You may choose between Hudson or Bering. And we'll do so together, Winter.
[30.11.2022 01:08:28] F-88: ?: Not the places I wanted to go...
[30.11.2022 01:08:57] Friedhelm.Winter: Hudson looks like a nice place to be for an unidentified fighter.
[30.11.2022 01:09:14] F-88: ?: How about Omegas instead?
[30.11.2022 01:09:38] [RM]Obl-Trau.Habermeyer: Yet they are the closest routes out of Rheinland, thus they are to be taken. What is wrong with those? You may make your way to
[30.11.2022 01:09:44] [RM]Obl-Trau.Habermeyer: the Omegas around Rheinland.
[30.11.2022 01:09:53] Friedhelm.Winter: I would not let you go deeper to our homeland, but it's up to my superior.
[30.11.2022 01:10:18] A/)-Lazurith: Hate to be nosy, but the systems bordering Liberty are in fact closer.
[30.11.2022 01:10:24] F-88: ?: It would take to long to go to Omegas by counterning Rheinland.
[30.11.2022 01:10:43] Friedhelm.Winter: Longer than fixing your signature?
[30.11.2022 01:11:03] F-88: ?: Yes and to remove my prototypes.
[30.11.2022 01:11:12] Friedhelm.Winter: And then, of course.
[30.11.2022 01:11:16] [RM]Obl-Trau.Habermeyer: 'Too long' ... for what? What happened in those last four days you remember that makes it that urgent?
[30.11.2022 01:11:57] F-88: ?: Simply because it is faster to go to my destination than going by Liberty.
[30.11.2022 01:12:20] [RM]Obl-Trau.Habermeyer: ... comfort and saving time should be the least of your concerns.
[30.11.2022 01:12:22] [MFE]~Healing.Wings: Sonja: ahm Traudel i have to go. i will leave your Food at the Stationmaster of Altona.
[30.11.2022 01:12:26] [RM]Obl-Trau.Habermeyer: I am lenient as is already.
[30.11.2022 01:12:34] [RM]Obl-Trau.Habermeyer: Understood, Sonja. Sorry for that.
[30.11.2022 01:12:50] [MFE]~Healing.Wings: Sonja: dont worry Traudel, i hope you will like it. [30.11.2022 01:12:53] 2022-11-30 01:12:53 SMT Traffic control alert: [MFE]~Healing.Wings has requested to dock
[30.11.2022 01:13:11] F-88: ?: Then... In this case, I hope you will forgive me.
[30.11.2022 01:13:48] [RM]Obl-Trau.Habermeyer: Forgive you? For what? All that is needed is to follow procedures and take the long trip, if a fixed IFF doesn't clear the
[30.11.2022 01:13:52] [RM]Obl-Trau.Habermeyer: usage of those weapons.
[30.11.2022 01:14:01] [RM]Obl-Trau.Habermeyer: And i strongly suggest having a professional look at that Amnesia.
[30.11.2022 01:14:26] Friedhelm.Winter: Ja, every pilot should take his health seriously.
[30.11.2022 01:14:48] Friedhelm.Winter: Like we do in Rheinwehr.
[30.11.2022 01:14:49] F-88: ?: Forgive me because... I will not go through Liberty's borders.
[30.11.2022 01:15:16] [RM]Obl-Trau.Habermeyer: ... and why's that ?
[30.11.2022 01:15:28] [RM]Obl-Trau.Habermeyer: I asked you - you stated ... 'time'. Apparently it is more.
[30.11.2022 01:15:51] F-88: ?: I already told you that it will be longer than wanted.
[30.11.2022 01:16:28] [RM]Obl-Trau.Habermeyer: You dodge questions and test my patience, that is what you do. As it clearly isn't 'simply faster to go through Rheinland'.
[30.11.2022 01:16:35] [RM]Obl-Trau.Habermeyer: What - has something happened over in Liberty already?
[30.11.2022 01:16:51] F-88: [He sighed.]
[30.11.2022 01:17:14] Friedhelm.Winter: Maybe he had the same conversation within Liberty.
[30.11.2022 01:17:22] [RM]Obl-Trau.Habermeyer: Wouldn't be surprised...
[30.11.2022 01:17:24] F-88: ?: You can go where I think.
[30.11.2022 01:17:46] F-88: ?: And it means... I will simply force my way.
[30.11.2022 01:17:53] Friedhelm.Winter: Oh
[30.11.2022 01:18:06] [RM]Obl-Trau.Habermeyer: I strongly advise you to think about that statement one more time.
[30.11.2022 01:18:26] F-88: ?: It is more to you. You leave no other choice.
[30.11.2022 01:18:30] [RM]Obl-Trau.Habermeyer: As of now ... all i have issued is a temporary ban from Rheinland. That'll change for worse if you double down on it.
[30.11.2022 01:19:13] [RM]Obl-Trau.Habermeyer: I have left you plenty of choice, your unwillingness to take it does not equal a lack of choices and me forcing your hand.
[30.11.2022 01:19:20] [RM]Obl-Trau.Habermeyer: Wishful thinking of a different kind...
[30.11.2022 01:19:45] F-88: ?: No. You left me two choices.
[30.11.2022 01:20:24] A/)-Lazurith: Oh my G-- just comply already. Please.
[30.11.2022 01:20:46] [RM]Obl-Trau.Habermeyer: Plenty. Go, get them unmounted. Or that IFF fixed. Or take the long route and do not do any of those. Leave this ship and take
[30.11.2022 01:20:56] [RM]Obl-Trau.Habermeyer: another one to have a professional check your medical history...
[30.11.2022 01:21:05] [RM]Obl-Trau.Habermeyer: More than two. But we begin to move in circles.
[30.11.2022 01:21:31] F-88: ?: Alright. Time to force the path.
[30.11.2022 01:21:48] [RM]Obl-Trau.Habermeyer: You not wanting to is your problem, not Rheinlands. ... pfah, so be it. You have doomed yourself then.
[30.11.2022 01:22:21] Friedhelm.Winter: Ready to assist, by your command.
[30.11.2022 01:22:27] [RM]Obl-Trau.Habermeyer: Pity, i regret this development. Winter, you're with me. Lazurith - you're not under my jurisdiction. Do as you please in this.
[30.11.2022 01:22:42] A/)-Lazurith: Oh, we have a stake in this too.
[30.11.2022 01:22:54] A/)-Lazurith: Those guns are not what they appear to be. They're much worse.
[30.11.2022 01:22:57] Friedhelm.Winter: Lock aquired.
[30.11.2022 01:23:06] A/)-Lazurith: But I was trying to be civil about it.
[30.11.2022 01:23:17] A/)-Lazurith: Just -- try not to kill the poor s-
[30.11.2022 01:23:23] A/)-Lazurith: Sod. Right.
[30.11.2022 01:23:25] A/)-Lazurith: I'm ready.
[30.11.2022 01:23:29] [RM]Obl-Trau.Habermeyer: ... peculiar information. Well - despite all - your last warning to comply over there. If not this turns ugly.
[30.11.2022 01:23:52] A/)-Lazurith: Will all due respect, you gave like four already. Or was it three?
[30.11.2022 01:23:59] [RM]Obl-Trau.Habermeyer: Just a kind soul, 's all.
[30.11.2022 01:24:05] A/)-Lazurith: Hah. Would've done the same.
[30.11.2022 01:24:07] [RM]Obl-Trau.Habermeyer: Maybe now - with the situation clear ...
[30.11.2022 01:24:14] [RM]Obl-Trau.Habermeyer: Things appear more drastic.
[30.11.2022 01:24:14] F-88: ?: Perish.
[30.11.2022 01:24:18] [RM]Obl-Trau.Habermeyer: Mh, so be it.
[30.11.2022 01:24:20] A/)-Lazurith: Oh. Just like that.
[30.11.2022 01:24:24] A/)-Lazurith: Okay. Weapons hot.
[30.11.2022 01:28:02] F-88: [Sighs.]
[30.11.2022 01:29:14] F-88: ?: No way to handle this...
[30.11.2022 01:29:39] [RM]Obl-Trau.Habermeyer: That was your decision.
[30.11.2022 01:29:47] Friedhelm.Winter: Not gut for you
[30.11.2022 01:29:51] Friedhelm.Winter: Indeed [30.11.2022 01:33:22] Death: F-88 suffered a self-administered loadout error (Mine).
[30.11.2022 01:33:30] A/)-Lazurith: Ah.
[30.11.2022 01:33:33] A/)-Lazurith: That... takes care of that.
[30.11.2022 01:33:45] [RM]Obl-Trau.Habermeyer: Mhf ... i regret this outcome. But he made his choice.
[30.11.2022 01:33:53] A/)-Lazurith: We all have a choice.
[30.11.2022 01:33:54] Friedhelm.Winter: Tricked him, but it was costly for a ship.
[30.11.2022 01:34:28] A/)-Lazurith: Just like how I chose to be here. For the record: I'm not actually on-duty right now.
[30.11.2022 01:34:42] [RM]Obl-Trau.Habermeyer: Winter, good work. Lazurith? I thank you for that assistance. Once more the Technocracy seems to lend me a hand more often than
[30.11.2022 01:34:42] [RM]Obl-Trau.Habermeyer: not.
[30.11.2022 01:34:46] [RM]Obl-Trau.Habermeyer: Oh? Or ... maybe not?
[30.11.2022 01:34:49] A/)-Lazurith: Ah, we're good like that.
[30.11.2022 01:34:52] Friedhelm.Winter: I should return to the docks as soon as possible. May I be free, Habermeyer?
[30.11.2022 01:35:02] [RM]Obl-Trau.Habermeyer: Dismissed, Winter.
[30.11.2022 01:35:04] [RM]Obl-Trau.Habermeyer: Get that repaired.

Guten Abend Offiziere.
It is with some chagrin that I must admit to the failure of executing my duties. Early during my first official patrol post-reinstatement, I detected a cluster of ships loitering sunward near the trade lane between Wildau and New Berlin. Upon more detailed scans, I determined that one was a member of the Buro Der Marineintelligenz, seemingly engaging in a standoff with two hostile military vessels (a member of the Coalition and the Corsairs). After a brief conversation and my aborted attempt at humor, we engaged the enemy. Unfortunately, I was slowly but steadily outmatched by the Coalition pilot, while the BDM pilot and the Corsair seemed to be evenly matched. This engagement was witnessed by a pirate, who seemed unwilling to declare a side.
After the destruction of my ship, the combatants were kind enough to ignore my escape pod as it coasted toward Wildau. All neural net logs were lost, and the black box was destroyed by my own mine.
I have forwarded my simulator schedule to Oberleutnant Habermeyer in order to rectify this shortcoming, and am awaiting punishment if that is deemed necessary.
Hochachtungsvoll,

Guten Abend.
The pirate from my previous encounter (codename Omega) was spotted in New Berlin upon my return to Wildau from live-fire exercises. I elected to stay on his trail as he took the trade lane toward New Berlin. To my surprise, Omega aborted the connection and exited towards the Harzfeld. Seemingly waiting for something, he proceeded to resist an offer of escort to Wildau. As part of my interrogation, I determined that the vessel is stolen. When no submission was forthcoming, I engaged the vessel in order to recover the life pod. Unfortunately, my ship was disabled, though my escape pod was able to be picked up by a rookie patrol in the area. On the bright side, Omega will certainly need to spend at least a week in the maintenance yard, and should not be plaguing New Berlin during that time.
After the patrol dropped me off at Planet New Berlin, I logged in to the nearest simulator station, where Oberleutnant Habermeyer was waiting to provide feedback on my performance.

Guten Abend Offiziere.
Please find attached the neural net logs of my assigned areas as pertaining to mission AX76NG (Codename = Blumen).
Thuringia.
As outlined, I proceeded to Thuringia System at best speed to begin my scouting run. The grid was split into two outbound legs, beginning and ending at Bayern (Path 1, Path 2). I was directed to land at Weimar to physically acquire the latest Unstrut safe ingress zones. Although I planned to navigate around the field, the MND rep suggested that I pay a visit to Sommerda and update them on my mission. I naturally understood the meaning behind this "request", and acted accordingly. As part of my ingress, I confirmed the lack of activity at Heldrungen and current location of Siemensstadt (unchanged).
During the second leg of my run, I passed an MND vessel performing live-fire exercises. The vessel reported potential renegade activity in the system, which prompted me to make a loop around Valhalla (transcript log). Regretfully, there has been another breach - a light general-purpose craft towards the Hamburg jump anomaly. I disabled this vessel and managed to acquire the ejected pilot intact (designation: The Wild). He did not reply to my comms, but I am sure interrogators at Kolleda will have better luck. This concluded the first part of my mission.
Cologne
Upon arriving at Altenburg, I was once again assigned two legs which loosely covered the system (Path 1, Path 2). The first leg took me past the Karlsruhe wreck (alloy concentration unchanged). At the end of the first leg, I detected a faint signal in Steinfurt's orbit. Upon closer investigation, I uncovered a loose collection of modular containers in poor repair (designation: Altenberg Depot). A brief search of my nav databanks failed to confirm official registry of this base in Rheinland.
Before I had a chance to contact Altenburg for additional orders, my scanners detected the presence of vessel nearby. Upon communicating with the captain, I learned that this member of the Core seemed to have gotten lost inside the Norddrauwolke. I escorted this individual (codename: Faith) to Altenburg and awaited further instructions. An Oberleutnant swiftly contacted me with orders to have the individual escorted to the edge of Rhineland space. Faith requested that they be taken as close as possible to an ingress to the Omicron Systems. Upon review of my neural net nav data, I confirmed with Altenburg that Passau in Munich should have the most up-to-date information about local anomalies which connect to that sector. The escort mission was uneventful, and we made good time to Passau. Upon confirmation of the authority, Passau forwarded me the latest location of the Omicron Xi anomaly, to which I directed Faith. As I did not have clearance to proceed into the Storm, I lingered long enough to see the Core vessel on its way (transcript log).
After returning back to Cologne, I proceeded with the second leg of my assignment in this system. This was mostly uneventful: I confirmed for the astronomers at Heisenberg that Longerich continues to resist advanced scanning equipment (drone footage).
Getting back into high-bandwidth comms range with Heisenberg resulted in a scanner anomaly in my systems. Upon further investigation, the anomaly was centered at a Freelancer-piloted vessel (codename: Charlie,Jukins. WARNING: Neural net log unavailable). After getting into range for a detailed scan, I detected two nomad prototype weapons mounted on the vessel. The cargo of the vessel hold also contained illicit light arms, but I focused my interrogation on the nomad remnants. I implored the Freelancer to produce his registration, or follow me to Wildau where one may be checked in the system. Upon the denial of my request, I surreptitiously contacted Altenburg to determine if there were any assets in-system. Unfortunately, only a recon team was standing by at Heisenberg, without significant fighter assets. I ordered the vessel to proceed to Heisenberg and allow the team on board for inspection. Charlie,Jukins denied my request, and a fight ensued, in which I was unfortunately the loser. My pod made it to Heisenberg without issue, and I was greeted by the dour faces of the recon team, who provided transport back to Altenburg. I have been collating this report while waiting for a new vessel.

Guten Abend Officers,
i have caught a Cryer Pharmaceuticals vessel smuggling Xeno Artifacts in Hamburg.
Due to the sudden increase in especially these types of artifacts, i opted to have the ship unload those on Planet Hamburg for immediate safekeeping and investigation as to where they may have originated from. The vessel's captain put up a meek and futile effort of legitimizing his cargo, but did comply to an extent in the end. As instructed, he headed for Planet Hamburg - yet he managed to vanish in the busy transit area of the mooring fixture. Whether or not the goods have been properly handed over to Hamburg's authorities is unclear, the issued fine for contraband was not paid. I kept watch of the area and surveyed the NeuralNet logs... but there was no more sign of the vessel in question - callsign Glorious_Artoria.
[04.12.2022 15:21:23] [RM]Obl-Trau.Habermeyer: Guten Tag, Cryer. [04.12.2022 15:21:26] 2022-12-04 15:21:26 SMT Traffic control alert: Glorious_Artoria has requested to dock

[04.12.2022 15:22:49] [RM]Obl-Trau.Habermeyer: You don't happen to have a moment for me, do you?
[04.12.2022 15:22:59] Glorious_Artoria: i supose
[04.12.2022 15:23:07] Glorious_Artoria: but time is money
[04.12.2022 15:23:14] [RM]Obl-Trau.Habermeyer: Excellent - i had hoped so. Oh - certainly time is money.
[04.12.2022 15:23:37] [RM]Obl-Trau.Habermeyer: See, reason i ask is the very peculiar cargo of yours. Any ... ideas why that might be problematic here in Rheinland?
[04.12.2022 15:23:52] Glorious_Artoria: its not for Rheinland
[04.12.2022 15:24:03] Glorious_Artoria: i just have to go past rheinland pspace

[04.12.2022 15:24:18] [RM]Obl-Trau.Habermeyer: That is absolutely irrelevant - you are, right now, in Rheinland space.
[04.12.2022 15:24:31] Glorious_Artoria: true but its not my market all the same
[04.12.2022 15:25:10] [RM]Obl-Trau.Habermeyer: Whatever is your market for contraband is none of my concern - even though i would be highly interested to know either way.
[04.12.2022 15:25:42] Glorious_Artoria: so where is this headed rheinlander ?
[04.12.2022 15:26:18] [RM]Obl-Trau.Habermeyer: Oh, simple protocol. Confiscated goods and a fine. You'll drop those right off here at Planet Hamburg to the local authorities.
[04.12.2022 15:26:48] [RM]Obl-Trau.Habermeyer: And are to pay a fine of 4.975.000 SC to me for possessing and moving illegal goods through Rheinland space.

While monitoring comms i did pick up a garbled distress signal, most likely relayed over automated communication channels. It hailed from Bering, where i found a civilian frigate already searching. Apparently the origin was a Liberty research vessel, unfortunately we did not manage to find it. During our rescue operation we met Richards, a Freelancer already known to me, as well as some Bounty Hunters. The latter made use of fake calls to throw us three off. I have to admit them willingly squandering time with such diversion tactics and effectively jeopardizing rescue efforts in particular has been a most questionable course of action on their part. There was no personal sighting of the research vessel in question, i laid no eyes upon it during the whole attempt. Allegedly the Bounty Hunters Guild did manage to escort it back, i cannot confirm this though.
[04.12.2022 15:42:03] Swift.Silence: CO: Greetings, Military officer.
[04.12.2022 15:42:24] [RM]Obl-Trau.Habermeyer: Guten Tag there.
[04.12.2022 15:43:33] Swift.Silence: CO: Seeme like we got the same idea, officer.
[04.12.2022 15:43:36] [RM]Obl-Trau.Habermeyer: Bit off the beaten path here - out here for something specific, if i may ask?
[04.12.2022 15:43:52] Swift.Silence: ?: Out of the system's asteroid field.
[04.12.2022 15:44:17] Swift.Silence: CO: Would make sense for a research vessel to do that, I suppose.
[04.12.2022 15:44:42] Swift.Silence: CO: Seems like it's not there. Not for at least the ten future kliks.
[04.12.2022 15:45:02] [RM]Obl-Trau.Habermeyer: Research vessel? Oh - so i was right earlier on. Could've sworn i picked up a garbled transmission on my route in Hamburg.
[04.12.2022 15:45:05] Swift.Silence: CO: Well, the rancid Bounty Hunters who harrassed my colleagues are going to win this race.*
[04.12.2022 15:45:28] Swift.Silence: CO: Poor passengers, if they're in need of medical care, won't get it.
[04.12.2022 15:45:54] [RM]Obl-Trau.Habermeyer: I doubt there is any hint as to where said vessel may have been spotted last?
[04.12.2022 15:45:56] Swift.Silence: CO: I scanned the fields in F-G 3-4, nothing there.
[04.12.2022 15:46:07] Swift.Silence: It was headed for one of the two jumpgates.
[04.12.2022 15:46:17] Swift.Silence: Hence why I went to Hamburg.
[04.12.2022 15:46:36] [RM]Obl-Trau.Habermeyer: Mh, Liberty one is out of my usual area of operations.
[04.12.2022 15:46:48] Swift.Silence: CO: It's in need of help.
[04.12.2022 15:47:11] Swift.Silence: CO: We're on a humanitarian mission, contrary to those Bounty Hunters who are simply looking for a prize.
[04.12.2022 15:47:15] [RM]Obl-Trau.Habermeyer: Then we should better make sure we find it. Oberleutnant Traudel Habermeyer, by the way.
[04.12.2022 15:47:22] [RM]Obl-Trau.Habermeyer: Mh, credits are a motivation for most...
[04.12.2022 15:47:37] Swift.Silence: CO: Pleased to make your acquaintance, Officer. You should have met one of our agents, on Warhawk-1.
[04.12.2022 15:47:45] Swift.Silence: CO: We are aware of you.

[04.12.2022 15:48:49] Swift.Silence: CO: Negative, our agent fought alongside you. We are simply aware of this event.
[04.12.2022 15:49:11] Swift.Silence: CO: I mean, it met you. You were out of this combat in particular.
[04.12.2022 15:49:22] [RM]Obl-Trau.Habermeyer: Mh-mhm, i see. May have been a while already then.
[04.12.2022 15:49:56] [RM]Obl-Trau.Habermeyer: Richards ... how unexpected.
[04.12.2022 15:50:08] Swift.Silence: Greetings, Freelancer.
[04.12.2022 15:50:13] Richards.-[Fae: Hello guys.
[04.12.2022 15:50:27] [RM]Obl-Trau.Habermeyer: You did not happen to have spotted a vessel in distress by any chance?
[04.12.2022 15:50:36] Swift.Silence: CO: If you wish to search in order to help those people, feel free to join us.
[04.12.2022 15:50:37] Richards.-[Fae: No, Why? Is there one?
[04.12.2022 15:50:45] Swift.Silence: CO: Affirmative.
[04.12.2022 15:50:49] [RM]Obl-Trau.Habermeyer: Apparently so - research vessel. No sign of it yet, though.
[04.12.2022 15:50:56] Swift.Silence: CO: Here's a Bounty Pirate.
[04.12.2022 15:51:11] Swift.Silence: CO: Guessing you didn't find it.
[04.12.2022 15:51:22] [RM]Obl-Trau.Habermeyer: Mhmh...
[04.12.2022 15:51:26] Swift.Silence: CO: Alright, so I propose that:
[04.12.2022 15:51:44] Swift.Silence: One of us go to the Texas Jump gate and the Northern West of the system.
[04.12.2022 15:51:54] Swift.Silence: Another one of us go to the fields once again.
[04.12.2022 15:52:06] Swift.Silence: So, Freelancer, interested in joining the "good guys" side?
[04.12.2022 15:52:08] [RM]Obl-Trau.Habermeyer: Without approval of Liberty i will not enter their half of Bering.
[04.12.2022 15:52:13] Swift.Silence: Or do you do this for credits?
[04.12.2022 15:52:41] Swift.Silence: CO: Erm, with all due respect officer, it falls under the humanitarian mission clause and overrides this.
[04.12.2022 15:52:52] Swift.Silence: CO: At least the naval laws from Ancient Earth are this way.
[04.12.2022 15:53:08] Swift.Silence: CO: I'll go up then.
[04.12.2022 15:53:12] Richards.-[Fae: I do this to help. If I get credits out of it, great. If not, that is fine by me. Helping people is worth more than credits, in
[04.12.2022 15:53:16] Richards.-[Fae: my opinion.
[04.12.2022 15:53:30] [RM]Obl-Trau.Habermeyer: Mhhm... have not seen the proper full distress call, but i get your point. It should be covered by it...
[04.12.2022 15:53:45] Swift.Silence: I'll go to the fields in G 3-4.
[04.12.2022 15:54:05] Swift.Silence: Richards, maybe go to the Texas jump gate, and Frau Habermeyer, around the Pacifica base?
[04.12.2022 15:54:11] [RM]Obl-Trau.Habermeyer: I'll take a detour to the east of Bering, C-5 ... had some unusual activity weeks prior. Perhaps there is something.
[04.12.2022 15:54:13] [RM]Obl-Trau.Habermeyer: Exactly.
[04.12.2022 15:54:16] Swift.Silence: CO: Good luck.
[04.12.2022 15:54:29] Swift.Silence: CO: Revenant, fancy meeting you there.
[04.12.2022 15:54:34] [RM]Obl-Trau.Habermeyer: To you, too.
[04.12.2022 15:54:43] Richards.-[Fae: Oh, well.
[04.12.2022 15:55:06] Richards.-[Fae: Not yet. But my search has just started.
[04.12.2022 15:55:41] Swift.Silence: CO: Richards, you can tell Revenant that we're split, and that they're free to join us [04.12.2022 15:56:02] BHG|Unrelenting: S: This is the Unrelenting. We found the lost liner. It's in sector 8A. Requesting help. [04.12.2022 15:56:17] Swift.Silence: CO: Understood, coming, go, go, go.
[04.12.2022 15:56:31] BHG|Collector: G: Confirming. We're en route.
[04.12.2022 15:56:41] Richards.-[Fae: Going to check it out.
[04.12.2022 15:58:30] Swift.Silence: It's fake.
[04.12.2022 15:58:43] Swift.Silence: CO: All vessels, Unreleting is near me, it's not at 8A.
[04.12.2022 15:59:56] Swift.Silence: CO: Since you're gonna "transmit whatever" at Bretonia, I'll make sure to transmit this Sirius-wide.
[04.12.2022 16:00:16] Swift.Silence: anything? [04.12.2022 16:00:22] BHG|Collector: G: Transmit them my number.
[04.12.2022 16:00:24] Richards.-[Fae: not yet [04.12.2022 16:00:40] BHG|Collector: G: I want to know how many sexy unlawful women respond.
[04.12.2022 16:00:46] [RM]Obl-Trau.Habermeyer: Unbelievable... why squander time with this, Unrelenting?
[04.12.2022 16:00:56] Richards.-[Fae: Hamburg jump hole and Pacifica are clean.
[04.12.2022 16:01:05] Swift.Silence: Don't say it out in the clear.
[04.12.2022 16:01:15] Swift.Silence: We can guess it.
[04.12.2022 16:05:37] SLRC-XPS>Faraday: Brad: Ahh
[04.12.2022 16:05:47] A/)-Revenant: Bretonia is not quite the trustworthiest of hosts.
[04.12.2022 16:05:54] A/)-Revenant: Habermeyer. *nods*
[04.12.2022 16:06:07] A/)-Revenant: Squabbling at the gate, though, you say?
[04.12.2022 16:06:14] [RM]Obl-Trau.Habermeyer: Revenant. And company. *With a nod* I doubt anyone seen any trace of that research vessel?
[04.12.2022 16:06:27] A/)-Revenant: I'm afraid not.
[04.12.2022 16:06:29] SLRC-XPS>Faraday: Brad: Yeah, something about being hunted by the hunters and needing help looking for some research vessel
[04.12.2022 16:06:31] SLRC-XPS>Faraday: Brad: Speaking of
[04.12.2022 16:06:32] Garmr: I wasn't paid to be your scout.
[04.12.2022 16:06:54] A/)-Revenant: No, but you are being paid to protect me, not to scout.
[04.12.2022 16:07:26] Garmr: Starting to think I should demand hazard -and- detour pay for how much trouble you get inot.
[04.12.2022 16:07:42] SLRC-XPS>Faraday: Brad: Raven, /trouble/, never
[04.12.2022 16:07:54] [RM]Obl-Trau.Habermeyer: Mhmh, shame. Either way, time to look further then. Keep me posted, should ... something be found. Would appreciate it.
[04.12.2022 16:07:54] A/)-Revenant: [snorts under the mask, stiffling a wheezey chuckle]
[04.12.2022 16:08:04] A/)-Revenant: Don't let the Bounty Hunters get it. [04.12.2022 16:08:05] Swift.Silence: We found the Liner, northern west edge, maximum top, outside of the asteroids, it's moving.
[04.12.2022 16:08:31] [RM]Obl-Trau.Habermeyer: They already transmitted a wrong location. *Huffs* The nerve... play with human lives.
[04.12.2022 16:08:39] A/)-Revenant: Squabbling.
[04.12.2022 16:08:51] Garmr: Government payroll pretending to care for human lives.
[04.12.2022 16:08:53] Garmr: Always amusing.
[04.12.2022 16:08:59] [RM]Obl-Trau.Habermeyer: Believe it or not, i do.
[04.12.2022 16:09:11] SLRC-XPS>Faraday: Brad: I feel like I watched the junkers do this last time they were smuggling, called out a fake SAR, sent everyone far away [04.12.2022 16:11:34] Caliban: Where'd you say it was? North-west?
[04.12.2022 16:11:43] Swift.Silence: Don't go there, it was a fake call.*
[04.12.2022 16:12:05] Caliban: ...no comment.
[04.12.2022 16:12:08] Swift.Silence: Excuse me, Caliban. But I wanted those fake Bounty Hunters - rather Pirates, to suffer.
[04.12.2022 16:12:20] BHG|Collector: G: I am suffering from a good drink.
[04.12.2022 16:12:21] Swift.Silence: I hope you can understand, they sent a similar fake call
[04.12.2022 16:12:27] [RM]Obl-Trau.Habermeyer: ... not the first one, sadly. Indeed.
[04.12.2022 16:12:51] Garmr: I urge you to swiftly return to silence.
[04.12.2022 16:13:35] Swift.Silence: CO: You were present to listen to that fake call from those BHG pirates, I doubt I'm the only sinner here.
[04.12.2022 16:13:43] BHG|Sun: Shut the fuck up.
[04.12.2022 16:13:45] Garmr: Stop talking.
[04.12.2022 16:13:52] Swift.Silence: CO: No.
[04.12.2022 16:13:55] Caliban: Do go on, please.
[04.12.2022 16:16:31] Richards.-[Fae: There it is, and our fake call friends.
[04.12.2022 16:18:36] Swift.Silence: Hi.
[04.12.2022 16:18:36] A/)-Revenant: What was that for?
[04.12.2022 16:18:41] Swift.Silence: Read the comment.
[04.12.2022 16:18:46] Swift.Silence: *sighs*
[04.12.2022 16:18:48] A/)-Revenant: Yes - ... But it does not elaborate.
[04.12.2022 16:18:51] Swift.Silence: Purely disappointed.
[04.12.2022 16:18:57] Swift.Silence: I'm too disappointed to barely talk.
[04.12.2022 16:19:01] A/)-Revenant: Right?
After having returned to Hamburg i conducted regular scans of ships passing by, one of them caught my eye. A Freelancer named Charlie Jukins. According to him well aware of the laws of Rheinland, yet he was carrying enemies of the state as well as using illegal equipment constructed on basis of Nomad technology. The attempt to bribe me was in there as well. There was valiant efforts to talk his way out of the situation, yet all he managed by that was to have more and more people showing up. Among them an already known Unioner, Hans Olken, as well as a fellow soldier, Clayton Stiel. Stiel telling me Jukins already tried to assault him, which made the amount of laws Jukins had broken increase even more. As Jukins was not willing to cooperate, Olken offered his help - but had a present Bounty Hunter have a go at him first. The Hunter was taken out, Olken took care of Jukins.
I wish to note that one of the Bounty Hunters from the rescue attempt, callsign Sun, showed up briefly during the early stages of this scene as well. That distinct lack of respect towards Rheinland authorities, coupled with morally questionable decisions during SAR operations, might be a reason to reevaluate our standing with that one in particular. Contracting these kinds of people may reflect negatively on us.
[04.12.2022 17:38:15] [RM]Obl-Trau.Habermeyer: Guten Tag, Freelancer.
[04.12.2022 17:38:24] [RM]Obl-Trau.Habermeyer: Hold on a moment.
[04.12.2022 17:39:00] Charlie,Jukins: Apologies, I am in quite the hurry!
[04.12.2022 17:39:07] Charlie,Jukins: But, I could wait for a moment.
[04.12.2022 17:39:08] [RM]Obl-Trau.Habermeyer: Then we'll be quick.
[04.12.2022 17:39:19] [RM]Obl-Trau.Habermeyer: I care less for the leather, more for that one pilot there.
[04.12.2022 17:39:28] Charlie,Jukins: The pilot? What pilot?
[04.12.2022 17:39:35] Charlie,Jukins: I'm the only pilot here!
[04.12.2022 17:39:47] [RM]Obl-Trau.Habermeyer: If my scanners do no deceive me, you are carrying ... one Corsair with you?
[04.12.2022 17:40:01] Charlie,Jukins: Oh well, less of a Corsair and more of a passenger!
[04.12.2022 17:40:14] Charlie,Jukins: He wanted a ride, and he paid a lot to do so.
[04.12.2022 17:40:33] [RM]Obl-Trau.Habermeyer: ... peculiar passenger in that case. Corsair is a corsair and here in Rheinland viewed as terrorists. Got to insist on taking
[04.12.2022 17:40:36] [RM]Obl-Trau.Habermeyer: that one in.
[04.12.2022 17:41:07] Charlie,Jukins: Hmm, well I guess that makes sense of course.
[04.12.2022 17:41:34] Charlie,Jukins: But here how about this, right? How about you pay me the fee he was going to pay me for the trip. Everyone wins.
[04.12.2022 17:41:40] Charlie,Jukins: You get your guy, I get paid!
[04.12.2022 17:41:46] [RM]Obl-Trau.Habermeyer: They are either to be arrested ... or eliminated. I prefer option one. Therefore... just hand that one over to me.
[04.12.2022 17:42:00] [RM]Obl-Trau.Habermeyer: I am not going to pay you, Freelancer. This is not a negotiation.
[04.12.2022 17:42:13] Charlie,Jukins: What?! Aw come on, its only fair.
[04.12.2022 17:42:36] [RM]Obl-Trau.Habermeyer: You should be well aware of the laws of the regions you travel through before taking potentially problematic cargo and or
[04.12.2022 17:42:38] [RM]Obl-Trau.Habermeyer: passengers.
[04.12.2022 17:42:55] [RM]Obl-Trau.Habermeyer: If i'd be having a bad day i might suspect you of aiding Corsairs. We wouldn't want that.
[04.12.2022 17:43:00] Charlie,Jukins: Well, of course I know them! What kind of foolish man wouldn't read the regulations!
[04.12.2022 17:43:05] [RM]Obl-Trau.Habermeyer: Mh-mhm.
[04.12.2022 17:43:43] Charlie,Jukins: But! I think this is a great deal, a fair trade, with nobody loosing out in the end.
[04.12.2022 17:44:38] [RM]Obl-Trau.Habermeyer: I said it once, i'll repeat it once and only once. This is no negotiation. Your passenger is to be handed over to the
[04.12.2022 17:44:39] Charlie,Jukins: I get paid...you get your criminal...you get commended by your superiors.
[04.12.2022 17:44:41] [RM]Obl-Trau.Habermeyer: Rheinwehr.
[04.12.2022 17:44:59] [RM]Obl-Trau.Habermeyer: I care little for commendations.
[04.12.2022 17:45:10] Charlie,Jukins: Tsk. No fun at all...Hmm..
[04.12.2022 17:45:43] Charlie,Jukins: How about I give you the passenger AND I throw in some of my cargo hm? Surely this is a better deal!
[04.12.2022 17:46:02] Charlie,Jukins: Ah, but you pay me too.
[04.12.2022 17:46:07] Charlie,Jukins: How about it/
[04.12.2022 17:46:24] [RM]Obl-Trau.Habermeyer: ... you know, the longer i look at your vessel, the more i am afraid this will not work out.
[04.12.2022 17:46:35] [RM]Obl-Trau.Habermeyer: You said you had a look at our lovely laws here in the wunderbar Rheinland, ja?
[04.12.2022 17:46:44] Charlie,Jukins: Aw, whys that? I'm just a simple man trying to make a name for himself.
[04.12.2022 17:46:56] Charlie,Jukins: Oh of course! I looked at them alright.
[04.12.2022 17:46:59] [RM]Obl-Trau.Habermeyer: So ... you can't name a single other reason?
[04.12.2022 17:47:08] Charlie,Jukins: No no, not at all, Officer.
[04.12.2022 17:47:19] Charlie,Jukins: Do tell.
[04.12.2022 17:47:42] [RM]Obl-Trau.Habermeyer: Mhm. You may have looked at them then, but not very well. You are operating illegal equipment. Those adapted cannons there.
[04.12.2022 17:47:59] Charlie,Jukins: What? Adapted what now?
[04.12.2022 17:48:26] [RM]Obl-Trau.Habermeyer: I get two very distinct readings from your equipment, most of it is fine. Except two of your guns there.
[04.12.2022 17:48:43] BHG|Sun: OI OI!
[04.12.2022 17:48:53] Charlie,Jukins: Well, let me tell you, these weapons are certainly not from any kind of unsavory peoples.
[04.12.2022 17:49:06] Charlie,Jukins: Hello there, hunter.
[04.12.2022 17:49:12] BHG|Sun: How's everyone doing?
[04.12.2022 17:49:14] [RM]Obl-Trau.Habermeyer: I couldn't care less from who they came from. You have them mounted on your ship - that makes this a whole deal more
[04.12.2022 17:49:16] [RM]Obl-Trau.Habermeyer: problematic.
[04.12.2022 17:49:22] Charlie,Jukins: Great actually!
[04.12.2022 17:49:30] Charlie,Jukins: What? Why?
[04.12.2022 17:49:45] BHG|Sun: Woah!
[04.12.2022 17:49:48] BHG|Sun: The hostility!
[04.12.2022 17:49:49] Charlie,Jukins: Theres no problems here I can assure you. You have the wrong idea.
[04.12.2022 17:50:09] BHG|Sun: It's just stupid nomad guns that you people make.
[04.12.2022 17:50:22] [RM]Obl-Trau.Habermeyer: Why? They are based on Nomad technology - outlawed here within Rheinland, unless part of a select few. Simple as that.
[04.12.2022 17:50:28] [RM]Obl-Trau.Habermeyer: I am doing alright all things considered, Hunter.
[04.12.2022 17:51:24] Charlie,Jukins: No no, you've got it all wrong. These were made in Kusari!
[04.12.2022 17:51:35] BHG|Sun: Means they are not that good...
[04.12.2022 17:51:39] BHG|Sun: Things from Kusari usually...
[04.12.2022 17:51:42] BHG|Sun: You know.
[04.12.2022 17:51:46] Charlie,Jukins: Well...they might not be good but they do the job!
[04.12.2022 17:52:07] Charlie,Jukins: At least they work...my last weapons hardly functioned correctly.
[04.12.2022 17:52:30] [RM]Obl-Trau.Habermeyer: Irrelevant who made them. They show signs of Nomad origin or are based on it to an extent. Law is clear in that regard.
[04.12.2022 17:53:00] Charlie,Jukins: But! Clearly your scanners are mistaken.
[04.12.2022 17:53:13] Charlie,Jukins: These are Kusarian weapons and I can atest to that.
[04.12.2022 17:53:33] BHG|Sun: Sheesh you sound like my mom officer.
[04.12.2022 17:53:40] BHG|Sun: Law this law that.
[04.12.2022 17:54:04] [RM]Obl-Trau.Habermeyer: ... don't push it, Hunter. Back to you, Freelancer. My scanners operate just fine.
[04.12.2022 17:54:11] BHG|Sun: I'm sorry ma'am.
[04.12.2022 17:54:13] Charlie,Jukins: Hey you never know.
[04.12.2022 17:54:24] Charlie,Jukins: Could be "out of wack" as they say.
[04.12.2022 17:54:50] Charlie,Jukins: But hey hey, I'm all willing to make a deal.
[04.12.2022 17:55:04] BHG|Sun: Damn, you sound like one of us Charlie!
[04.12.2022 17:55:07] [RM]Obl-Trau.Habermeyer: Properly scheduled maintenance keeps them in check, be assured. 'Deals'?
[04.12.2022 17:55:09] Charlie,Jukins: I can just add it to the original offer!
[04.12.2022 17:55:33] Charlie,Jukins: Business is business, you do the criminal hunting I do the trading.
[04.12.2022 17:55:38] Charlie,Jukins: Simple!
[04.12.2022 17:55:59] [RM]Obl-Trau.Habermeyer: Add to an offer? Are you attempting to bribe me, Freelancer?
[04.12.2022 17:56:10] Charlie,Jukins: I don't know. Am I?
[04.12.2022 17:56:17] Charlie,Jukins: Surely not.
[04.12.2022 17:56:34] [RM]Obl-Trau.Habermeyer: Think very carefully about your answer, i am as lenient as it gets at this point. *She waits a moment, then nods.* Good.
[04.12.2022 17:57:10] Charlie,Jukins: So, just for clarification. What are the issues with my ship, just make sure.
[04.12.2022 17:57:11] BHG|Sun: Are you single?
[04.12.2022 17:57:35] BHG|Sun: Cus with that attitude, you'll remain single for the rest of your life.
[04.12.2022 17:57:48] [RM]Obl-Trau.Habermeyer: Your ship? Both those weapons with Nomad signature. Irrelevant who made them or where they came from.
[04.12.2022 17:58:12] [RM]Obl-Trau.Habermeyer: As they are mounted, i'll escort you out of Rheinland as you'll remain banned from Rheinland until they are no longer installed
[04.12.2022 17:58:21] [RM]Obl-Trau.Habermeyer: And no, carrying them with you will only lead to them being confiscated.
[04.12.2022 17:58:27] BHG|Sun: Or, or...
[04.12.2022 17:58:32] BHG|Sun: My pockets are empty.
[04.12.2022 17:58:41] [RM]Obl-Trau.Habermeyer: What a shame.
[04.12.2022 17:58:45] BHG|Sun: Put in some money in them, I'll destroy it all together
[04.12.2022 17:58:48] Charlie,Jukins: Ah...Well, if thats all it is. I could live with that.
[04.12.2022 17:59:02] [RM]Obl-Trau.Habermeyer: That pilot there will be handed over to me, of course.
[04.12.2022 17:59:13] Charlie,Jukins: But, the Liberty Navy had no trouble with such weapons, I guess Rheinland restrictions are stricter.
[04.12.2022 17:59:23] Charlie,Jukins: What? What pilot?
[04.12.2022 17:59:45] 2022-12-04 17:59:45 SMT Traffic control alert: BHG|Sun has requested to dock
[04.12.2022 17:59:55] [RM]Obl-Trau.Habermeyer: Your 'passenger'. And maybe Liberty is. We are not Liberty. Thanks to your ... exotic weapons... there is a fine involved.
[04.12.2022 18:00:20] Charlie,Jukins: Ah yes my faithful passenger.
[04.12.2022 18:00:38] Charlie,Jukins: And theres a fine? But why? Surely I have everything in order.
[04.12.2022 18:01:09] Charlie,Jukins: The guns are fine, the passenger is fine. What else could it be?
[04.12.2022 18:01:15] [RM]Obl-Trau.Habermeyer: Ja, there is. Your weaponry i just mentioned. Said fine is at my discretion. I'll place it at 1.000.000 SC.
[04.12.2022 18:01:29] [RM]Obl-Trau.Habermeyer: Neither your passenger nor those two weapons are fine - what are you on about?
[04.12.2022 18:01:33] Charlie,Jukins: Hm...
[04.12.2022 18:01:41] Charlie,Jukins: Ok ok how about this right.
[04.12.2022 18:02:24] Charlie,Jukins: I give you the passenger, you give me credits and then I pay the fine. How about it?
[04.12.2022 18:02:35] Charlie,Jukins: Its practically a win win!
[04.12.2022 18:02:56] [RM]Obl-Trau.Habermeyer: Negative. And if you keep refusing to cooperate this will turn less cordial.
[04.12.2022 18:03:30] Charlie,Jukins: Well, surely there must be some way, we can both make out of this situation better than we started.
[04.12.2022 18:04:23] [RM]Obl-Trau.Habermeyer: It is easy. You follow Rheinland law and this is a one time occurrene. You refuse and this is only the start of a long and
[04.12.2022 18:04:29] [RM]Obl-Trau.Habermeyer: problematic episode of your time here in Rheinland.
[04.12.2022 18:04:32] [RM]Obl-Trau.Habermeyer: I suggest option one.
[04.12.2022 18:04:55] Charlie,Jukins: But! How will that help both me and you make out better than when we started this conversation?
[04.12.2022 18:05:24] Charlie,Jukins: That didn't sound like YOU got anything out of it, and it didn't sound like I got anything out of it.
[04.12.2022 18:06:13] [RM]Obl-Trau.Habermeyer: I have to get nothing out of this. I am simply doing my duty here. This is thanks enough.
[04.12.2022 18:06:37] [RM]Obl-Trau.Habermeyer: If you benefit from this is not my priority. You are, as of now, in violation of Rheinland law. And this is your last warning
[04.12.2022 18:06:40] Charlie,Jukins: Hmm...but thanks alone cannot get you money to pay for goods!
[04.12.2022 18:06:41] [RM]Obl-Trau.Habermeyer: from me to cooperate, Freelancer.
[04.12.2022 18:07:13] [RM]Obl-Trau.Habermeyer: Rheinwehr is paid adequately, be assured.
[04.12.2022 18:07:32] Charlie,Jukins: Hmm, but you could always use more credits no?
[04.12.2022 18:07:42] [RM]Obl-Trau.Habermeyer: Your passenger - now.
[04.12.2022 18:07:56] Charlie,Jukins: Now now...hold on.
[04.12.2022 18:08:03] Charlie,Jukins: I will happily give you the passenger.
[04.12.2022 18:08:21] Charlie,Jukins: Of course I need something in return...
[04.12.2022 18:08:25] Charlie,Jukins: Its only fair.
[04.12.2022 18:08:50] [RM]Obl-Trau.Habermeyer: Negative, last chance.
[04.12.2022 18:09:04] Charlie,Jukins: Aw, I thought for sure, it would work this time.
[04.12.2022 18:09:12] [RM]Obl-Trau.Habermeyer: Your passenger, hand him over. Then i expect the issued fine to be paid, before we leave for either Hudson or Bering.
[04.12.2022 18:09:28] Charlie,Jukins: But I just CAME from Hudson. I can't just go back.
[04.12.2022 18:09:46] Charlie,Jukins: Thats pretty much the OPPOSITE direction of where I want to go.
[04.12.2022 18:10:18] [RM]Obl-Trau.Habermeyer: That is not my problem, you have the choice between Hudson or Bering. Should've adjusted your setup before heading to Rheinland
[04.12.2022 18:10:52] Charlie,Jukins: But! As I said earlier the weapons were never a problem. So, there would be no reason to change.
[04.12.2022 18:11:55] [RM]Obl-Trau.Habermeyer: I care not for Liberty and their laws. I just explained to you what the issue with them is here.
[04.12.2022 18:12:06] Charlie,Jukins: Oh don't worry I heard you.
[04.12.2022 18:13:35] [RM]Obl-Trau.Habermeyer: Well then - ... you don't want to take that lane.
[04.12.2022 18:13:40] Charlie,Jukins: What? Why?
[04.12.2022 18:13:43] Charlie,Jukins: What Lane?
[04.12.2022 18:13:49] [RM]Obl-Trau.Habermeyer: That one behind you...
[04.12.2022 18:14:07] Charlie,Jukins: But, I haven't moved at all.
[04.12.2022 18:14:23] [RM]Obl-Trau.Habermeyer: Now you are lying to me. Uncalled for.
[04.12.2022 18:14:35] Charlie,Jukins: No no Officer. I would never lie to you.
[04.12.2022 18:14:45] Charlie,Jukins: I am a very honest man.
[04.12.2022 18:14:56] [RM]Obl-Trau.Habermeyer: Our navigational data would tell both of us otherwise.
[04.12.2022 18:15:32] [RM]Obl-Trau.Habermeyer: Even my patience has its limits - and sadly we are nearing said limit. Told you how this goes. So ... make your choice,
[04.12.2022 18:15:34] [RM]Obl-Trau.Habermeyer: Freelancer.
[04.12.2022 18:15:50] Charlie,Jukins: Well....I could give you the passenger.
[04.12.2022 18:15:56] [RM]Obl-Trau.Habermeyer: Passenger, the fine and being escorted out. Or ... the alternative.
[04.12.2022 18:15:59] Charlie,Jukins: Or I could.....keep the passenger.
[04.12.2022 18:16:12] Charlie,Jukins: I could pay the fine...or keep my money.
[04.12.2022 18:16:24] Charlie,Jukins: You really put me in a difficult position you know?
[04.12.2022 18:16:49] [RM]Obl-Trau.Habermeyer: You put yourself into it. Pick - you wish to be prosecuted criminal within Rheinland or not?
[04.12.2022 18:17:27] Charlie,Jukins: Well...I don't remember the last time I saw the inside of a prison. I think it was when I went to visit a friend once.
[04.12.2022 18:17:54] Charlie,Jukins: But! I always heard the food in there is pretty bad.
[04.12.2022 18:18:05] Charlie,Jukins: How would you rate prison food?
[04.12.2022 18:18:29] [RM]Obl-Trau.Habermeyer: Stop stalling. You are nearing the point where this decision is going to be taken from you.
[04.12.2022 18:18:47] Charlie,Jukins: Alright, alright, just curious...
[04.12.2022 18:19:03] Charlie,Jukins: Also me? Stalling? What are you talking about?
[04.12.2022 18:19:40] [RM]Obl-Trau.Habermeyer: Don't push your luck. From all the officers you could've run into you already got lucky with me to begin with.
[04.12.2022 18:20:11] Charlie,Jukins: Oh really? Well thats reassuring.
[04.12.2022 18:20:22] Charlie,Jukins: Hold on Hold on.
[04.12.2022 18:20:26] Charlie,Jukins: Oh hello there Kusarian!
[04.12.2022 18:20:34] [RM]Obl-Trau.Habermeyer: Most would have not entertained this charade for that long.
[04.12.2022 18:20:38] Kishiro|Himeji-Maru: CIC: Oh, Mr. Jukins, are we selling video games again?
[04.12.2022 18:20:45] Charlie,Jukins: What? You know me?
[04.12.2022 18:20:49] Charlie,Jukins: Who are you?!
[04.12.2022 18:20:55] Kishiro|Himeji-Maru: CIC: That's a secret.
[04.12.2022 18:20:56] Charlie,Jukins: Thats spooky.
[04.12.2022 18:21:01] [RM]Obl-Trau.Habermeyer: It'll remain a mystery apparently.
[04.12.2022 18:21:17] Charlie,Jukins: So hold on hold on. You think..
[04.12.2022 18:21:24] Charlie,Jukins: I'm stalling?
[04.12.2022 18:21:32] [RM]Obl-Trau.Habermeyer: Certainly.
[04.12.2022 18:21:44] Charlie,Jukins: Me? Stalling?? No way No way.
[04.12.2022 18:21:57] Charlie,Jukins: You got the wrong idea it seems.
[04.12.2022 18:21:59] [RM]Obl-Trau.Habermeyer: I won't take bribes, neither will i just let you go. Hence this knows only two ways this'll go.
[04.12.2022 18:22:06] Charlie,Jukins: Oh?
[04.12.2022 18:22:12] Charlie,Jukins: Which ways are that?
[04.12.2022 18:22:22] Charlie,Jukins: Left tradelane or right tradelane?
[04.12.2022 18:22:46] [RM]Obl-Trau.Habermeyer: Compliance or hostilities for refusal to comply with Rheinland law and instructions of a law enforcement officer.
[04.12.2022 18:22:53] [RM]Obl-Trau.Habermeyer: If anything there is one lane to be taken.
[04.12.2022 18:23:10] Charlie,Jukins: Well, clearly there are two lanes here.
[04.12.2022 18:23:23] [RM]Obl-Trau.Habermeyer: True. One off limits to you at this very moment.
[04.12.2022 18:23:25] Charlie,Jukins: Come on now, are you sure you don't need glasses?
[04.12.2022 18:23:29] [RM]Obl-Trau.Habermeyer: Very.
[04.12.2022 18:23:41] Charlie,Jukins: You know I know a guy who can get good glasses for cheap.
[04.12.2022 18:24:03] [RM]Obl-Trau.Habermeyer: I suggest you get yourself some first, to check what Kusari gear you get and how well it plays along with Rheinland law.
[04.12.2022 18:24:13] [RM]Obl-Trau.Habermeyer: Maybe then i check if a pair is a good investment for me.
[04.12.2022 18:24:20] Charlie,Jukins: Alright well, I'll be doing that.
[04.12.2022 18:24:25] Charlie,Jukins: Have a good one!
[04.12.2022 18:24:27] [RM]Obl-Trau.Habermeyer: Halt.
[04.12.2022 18:24:34] Charlie,Jukins: What? Whats wrong?
[04.12.2022 18:24:34] [RM]Obl-Trau.Habermeyer: You are not just _leaving_
[04.12.2022 18:24:45] [RM]Obl-Trau.Habermeyer: Passenger, fine, being escorted out by me.
[04.12.2022 18:24:54] [RM]Obl-Trau.Habermeyer: That's the only way this goes in a friendly way.
[04.12.2022 18:25:12] Charlie,Jukins: You mean, Me follow you out of Rheinland. Through New Berlin right?
[04.12.2022 18:25:28] [RM]Obl-Trau.Habermeyer: Negative, shortest route. Bering or Hudson. We had that already.
[04.12.2022 18:25:53] Charlie,Jukins: Oh oh oh, right. I always get directions mixed up. Apologies.
[04.12.2022 18:26:02] [RM]Obl-Trau.Habermeyer: And if you do not give me that damn passenger, pay your fine and be escorted out to one of those two systems ... my hands are
[04.12.2022 18:26:05] [RM]Obl-Trau.Habermeyer: tied in how to proceed.
[04.12.2022 18:26:15] [RM]Obl-Trau.Habermeyer: First and last warning.
[04.12.2022 18:26:18] Charlie,Jukins: Woah woah. Take it easy.
[04.12.2022 18:26:24] Clayton.Stiel: Guten tag...
[04.12.2022 18:26:27] Charlie,Jukins: Ah hello!
[04.12.2022 18:26:35] [RM]Obl-Trau.Habermeyer: Guten Tag, Stiel.
[04.12.2022 18:26:35] Clayton.Stiel: You found Charlie, good. This son of a...
[04.12.2022 18:26:40] Charlie,Jukins: Woah woah!
[04.12.2022 18:26:42] Clayton.Stiel: he tried to kill me recently!
[04.12.2022 18:26:45] Charlie,Jukins: Take it easy!
[04.12.2022 18:26:49] [RM]Obl-Trau.Habermeyer: ... what now...?
[04.12.2022 18:26:56] Charlie,Jukins: No way. Thats crazy.
[04.12.2022 18:27:13] [RM]Obl-Trau.Habermeyer: Do go on, Stiel. My current company had the audacity to attack Rheinwehr personnel?
[04.12.2022 18:27:30] Clayton.Stiel: I was dealing with a hessian and Charlie here took a contract with them.
[04.12.2022 18:27:35] Charlie,Jukins: Ok how about you get your stories straight...and I go and leave Rheinland! Alright great. Adios.
[04.12.2022 18:27:40] [RM]Obl-Trau.Habermeyer: ... bad pl-... stop
[04.12.2022 18:27:41] Clayton.Stiel: Guess he thought it was going to be some easy credits
[04.12.2022 18:27:54] Charlie,Jukins: Oh.
[04.12.2022 18:27:56] [RM]Obl-Trau.Habermeyer: You want this to go south?
[04.12.2022 18:27:57] Charlie,Jukins: Ah.
[04.12.2022 18:28:06] [RM]Obl-Trau.Habermeyer: You just attempted to run.
[04.12.2022 18:28:08] Charlie,Jukins: No no, Officer. I am an upstanding citizen.
[04.12.2022 18:28:12] Charlie,Jukins: No way.
[04.12.2022 18:28:14] Charlie,Jukins: Clearly not.
[04.12.2022 18:28:18] [RM]Obl-Trau.Habermeyer: Then hand over the passenger. Pay the fine. And be escorted out.
[04.12.2022 18:28:24] Clayton.Stiel: Obviously trying to escape before I tell my story
[04.12.2022 18:28:30] [RM]Obl-Trau.Habermeyer: Else Stiel and me will take this a completely different way with you.
[04.12.2022 18:28:37] Charlie,Jukins: Ok ok you know what I will listen to Clayton's story first.
[04.12.2022 18:28:43] Charlie,Jukins: Then we can sort out the details.
[04.12.2022 18:28:48] Clayton.Stiel: You arent getting away this time, Jukins!
[04.12.2022 18:28:50] [RM]Obl-Trau.Habermeyer: Nein, you will not. I care not for what happened there.
[04.12.2022 18:29:02] Charlie,Jukins: Well, I want to hear this outragous story about me.
[04.12.2022 18:29:08] Charlie,Jukins: It could be false you know?
[04.12.2022 18:29:12] [RM]Obl-Trau.Habermeyer: If i do not have your passenger with me in the next two minutes, i'll do what i told you earlier.
[04.12.2022 18:29:18] Clayton.Stiel: What is there to say? You work for the Hessians.
[04.12.2022 18:29:21] Charlie,Jukins: What? What was that again??
[04.12.2022 18:29:26] Charlie,Jukins: ME?
[04.12.2022 18:29:29] Charlie,Jukins: Hessians??
[04.12.2022 18:29:31] Charlie,Jukins: No way.
[04.12.2022 18:29:48] [RM]Obl-Trau.Habermeyer: That was to let hostilities ensue due to you refusing to comply with instructions of an officer of the law.
[04.12.2022 18:29:50] [RM]Obl-Trau.Habermeyer: Simple as that.
[04.12.2022 18:30:09] [RM]Obl-Trau.Habermeyer: And trust me, i'd regret doing so. But i will. Do not mistake my kindness for weakness.
[04.12.2022 18:30:18] Charlie,Jukins: Ah that...But I am an upstanding citizen I've done nothing wrong.
[04.12.2022 18:30:19] Clayton.Stiel: Charlie is not worth the hassle, better to kill him and be done with it
[04.12.2022 18:30:28] Hans.Olken.: Serbus.
[04.12.2022 18:30:40] Charlie,Jukins: Woah hey. I'd like to keep my ship intact thank you.
[04.12.2022 18:30:44] [RM]Obl-Trau.Habermeyer: Lies. You are not. Transporting a Corsair, having nomad weaponry on board. And whatever else happened.
[04.12.2022 18:30:50] Charlie,Jukins: You know how hard it is to repair??
[04.12.2022 18:30:54] [RM]Obl-Trau.Habermeyer: So go ahead - comply already.
[04.12.2022 18:30:54] Tesoro.C.: Hello, any targets Military?
[04.12.2022 18:30:56] [RM]Obl-Trau.Habermeyer: ... Olken...
[04.12.2022 18:30:59] Hans.Olken.: Traudel?
[04.12.2022 18:31:03] Hans.Olken.: What's wrong?
[04.12.2022 18:31:06] [RM]Obl-Trau.Habermeyer: Hallo, Hunter. Maybe soon...
[04.12.2022 18:31:22] Tesoro.C.: Excellent
[04.12.2022 18:31:25] Charlie,Jukins: Hello hunter!
[04.12.2022 18:31:29] Charlie,Jukins: How are you this fine day?
[04.12.2022 18:31:36] Tesoro.C.: Poor!
[04.12.2022 18:31:39] [RM]Obl-Trau.Habermeyer: Ah, this dear Freelancer here refusing to cooperate. And my patience about to run out.
[04.12.2022 18:31:39] Charlie,Jukins: I see I see.
[04.12.2022 18:31:47] Clayton.Stiel: I will follow your lead Habermeyer, but you have my recommendation.
[04.12.2022 18:31:49] [RM]Obl-Trau.Habermeyer: Two minutes are soon over, Freelancer.
[04.12.2022 18:31:49] Charlie,Jukins: No way, I've done everything you asked!
[04.12.2022 18:31:58] [RM]Obl-Trau.Habermeyer: You have done _nothing_ i asked as of yet.
[04.12.2022 18:32:00] Hans.Olken.: Why do you run in to hard headed people all the time?
[04.12.2022 18:32:01] Charlie,Jukins: I am an upstanding citizen.
[04.12.2022 18:32:20] Hans.Olken.: And why is there a Hunter here?
[04.12.2022 18:32:22] [RM]Obl-Trau.Habermeyer: Then hand the passenger over, pay the fine to me and be escorted out.
[04.12.2022 18:32:24] Clayton.Stiel: The only thing upstanding is the shit you pile up where ever you go
[04.12.2022 18:32:30] Charlie,Jukins: Well, if you insist.
[04.12.2022 18:32:34] Charlie,Jukins: But first!
[04.12.2022 18:32:44] Charlie,Jukins: I must get him ready.
[04.12.2022 18:32:59] Charlie,Jukins: I must tell him his journey was not to his intended destination.
[04.12.2022 18:33:02] Charlie,Jukins: Sadly.
[04.12.2022 18:33:05] Clayton.Stiel: You have 10 seconds Charlie, otherwise I openfire
[04.12.2022 18:33:12] Charlie,Jukins: Woah woah.
[04.12.2022 18:33:12] Hans.Olken.: Wow wow.
[04.12.2022 18:33:14] Charlie,Jukins: Take it easy.
[04.12.2022 18:33:22] Hans.Olken.: Take it easy as he said.
[04.12.2022 18:33:23] [RM]Obl-Trau.Habermeyer: I care little what you tell your passenger. I have been lenient as is.
[04.12.2022 18:33:26] Hans.Olken.: No need for violence.
[04.12.2022 18:33:35] Charlie,Jukins: Exactly! Violence is not the answer!
[04.12.2022 18:33:35] Hans.Olken.: Hey Traudel.
[04.12.2022 18:33:39] [RM]Obl-Trau.Habermeyer: Law is not up for discussion, Olken.
[04.12.2022 18:33:43] Tesoro.C.: take it easy officer - perhaps you would like to pay me upfront just to be safe - you knowm if something comes up!
[04.12.2022 18:33:57] Hans.Olken.: You're annoying me Hunter.
[04.12.2022 18:33:58] Clayton.Stiel: Time is up, maybe a bit of pressure will speed you up
[04.12.2022 18:34:05] Charlie,Jukins: Oh no!
[04.12.2022 18:34:09] Charlie,Jukins: My ship!
[04.12.2022 18:34:28] [RM]Obl-Trau.Habermeyer: You're getting 5 for every head you bring me, Hunter. Should ... the need arise, that is.
[04.12.2022 18:34:31] Clayton.Stiel: Even the base knows you are hostile.
[04.12.2022 18:34:33] Charlie,Jukins: Surely we can work this out.
[04.12.2022 18:34:38] Hans.Olken.: Are you bountying me?
[04.12.2022 18:34:57] [RM]Obl-Trau.Habermeyer: You have done nothing so far, Olken. I hope it remains that way. Freelancer?
[04.12.2022 18:35:01] [RM]Obl-Trau.Habermeyer: I told you what would happen.
[04.12.2022 18:35:04] Hans.Olken.: Wow.
[04.12.2022 18:35:08] [RM]Obl-Trau.Habermeyer: Our two minutes are over.
[04.12.2022 18:35:11] Charlie,Jukins: No way.
[04.12.2022 18:35:15] Hans.Olken.: Since when did you become hostile towards me?
[04.12.2022 18:35:16] [RM]Obl-Trau.Habermeyer: A shame, to say the least.
[04.12.2022 18:35:30] Hans.Olken.: Are we back to square one?
[04.12.2022 18:35:55] [RM]Obl-Trau.Habermeyer: You, Olken? I act accordingly to what the situation presents me. Which is of now nothing, unless you put yourself between me
[04.12.2022 18:35:58] [RM]Obl-Trau.Habermeyer: and my duty with this Freelancer.
[04.12.2022 18:36:06] [RM]Obl-Trau.Habermeyer: Who is in violation of several Rheinland laws.
[04.12.2022 18:36:13] Charlie,Jukins: This is outrageous.
[04.12.2022 18:36:13] Hans.Olken.: You want me to take care of it?
[04.12.2022 18:36:15] Charlie,Jukins: Its unfair!
[04.12.2022 18:36:15] Clayton.Stiel: Habermeyer, do you want to kill him?
[04.12.2022 18:36:18] Clayton.Stiel: or shall I?
[04.12.2022 18:36:33] [RM]Obl-Trau.Habermeyer: ... you would lend a hand, Olken?
[04.12.2022 18:36:40] Hans.Olken.: Are you surprised?
[04.12.2022 18:36:51] Clayton.Stiel: Its Jukins, everyone wants to kil lhim
[04.12.2022 18:36:59] Charlie,Jukins: What? No no.
[04.12.2022 18:37:03] Charlie,Jukins: I am a nice person!
[04.12.2022 18:37:09] [RM]Obl-Trau.Habermeyer: Slightly. Mhm - by all means. I'll make use of that offer then. Stiel? Olken will take care of this.
[04.12.2022 18:37:14] Clayton.Stiel: Honestly a cancer to Sirius
[04.12.2022 18:37:16] Clayton.Stiel: Should be removed
[04.12.2022 18:37:22] Charlie,Jukins: Harsh.
[04.12.2022 18:37:26] Hans.Olken.: Alright Jukins.
[04.12.2022 18:37:27] [RM]Obl-Trau.Habermeyer: You had your chances - i regret it has come to this. I honestly do.
[04.12.2022 18:37:29] Hans.Olken.: Or wait.
[04.12.2022 18:37:29] Charlie,Jukins: I don't even know you!
[04.12.2022 18:37:31] Hans.Olken.: Bounty Hunter.
[04.12.2022 18:37:37] Hans.Olken.: 5.000.000 for Jukins head.
[04.12.2022 18:37:38] Clayton.Stiel: Very well Olken can take him
[04.12.2022 18:37:40] Tesoro.C.: you gotit
[04.12.2022 18:37:50] Clayton.Stiel: or the hunter...
[04.12.2022 18:37:52] Hans.Olken.: Lets enjoy a show.
[04.12.2022 18:38:19] [RM]Obl-Trau.Habermeyer: I am not here to enjoy a show... wish it wouldn't have come to this in the first place.
[04.12.2022 18:38:28] Hans.Olken.: Relaax..
[04.12.2022 18:38:39] Hans.Olken.: Nothing better than seeing them go at eachother.
[04.12.2022 18:38:47] Clayton.Stiel: I dont think you would have the opinion if you delt with Jukins on more occasions
[04.12.2022 18:38:52] Hans.Olken.: Bounty hunter talked a big game.
[04.12.2022 18:38:58] Hans.Olken.: Doesn't seem to go well for him.
[04.12.2022 18:39:37] Clayton.Stiel: Must be that nomad weaponary...
[04.12.2022 18:41:35] Hans.Olken.: Silly bounty hunter.

[04.12.2022 18:42:14] Hans.Olken.: Oh well...
[04.12.2022 18:42:19] Hans.Olken.: Seems like I'll have to jump in.
[04.12.2022 18:42:24] Hans.Olken.: After... the hunter.
[04.12.2022 18:42:50] [RM]Obl-Trau.Habermeyer: I won't stop you this time. You offered your help - i said i take it.
[04.12.2022 18:43:07] Hans.Olken.: I have a feeling, you're starting to like me.
[04.12.2022 18:43:21] Clayton.Stiel: Dont push your luck Olken
[04.12.2022 18:43:33] [RM]Obl-Trau.Habermeyer: *Traudel chuckles*

[04.12.2022 18:44:13] Hans.Olken.: Ah, always have to do the work myself.
[04.12.2022 18:44:15] Charlie,Jukins: Oh geez.

Guten Abend Offiziere.
Please find attached the neural net logs of my assigned areas as pertaining to mission AX76NG (Codename = Blumen).
Sigma-15 (Luneberg).
The grid in this system was split into two outbound legs, both passing through Freeport 8, where I was directed to land in order to acquire up-to-date intelligence about Core activity in-system (Path 1, Path 2). Due to adequate coverage of the Core zone of influence, I was directed to avoid this area during my patrol.
Overall, both legs of the patrol were uneventful. The ongoing construction of the Redline Depot E seems to be proceeding on schedule - please find attached the neural net node for additional information on the subject.
Munich.
After confirming my mission with Passau, I was directed to avoid all nebulae sectors within this system as much as possible. For this reason, I once again decided on creating two legs, one ending at New Augsburg, and the other starting from there and ending at Passau (Path 1, Path 2).
At the beginning of the first leg, I encountered a Freelancer vessel performing live-firing exercises (designation: Nobber). In the course of a brief exchange with this individual, I detected another transmission from another Freelancer, carrying helium to New Augsburg (designation: M!n3R_ApeX. WARNING: neural net data unavailable). Further communication with these individuals seemed unnecessary, and I proceeded with the rest of my patrol. As outlined in the mission parameters, I did not approach Ingolstadt directly, though I made sure to take detailed drone scans during the outbound leg (drone footage). I did not detect any vessels around the station, and alloy concentration seems to be unchanged from the last report. Augsburg did not have anything new to report either. This was turning out to be another uneventful patrol.
Upon my approach to Passau, I received a coded transmission to further investigate the aforementioned vessel Nobber. Upon a detailed scan, I detected a potentially unregistered Cloaking Device mounted on the vessel (scan infocard). As I was on the last leg of my patrol, Passau advised me to land and confirm any special equipment registries containing this vessel in the neural net. However, my search failed to discover any record of the sort. Unfortunately, by this point in time, both Passau and Augsburg reported no vessels on their long-ranged scans. I recommend that a detain&interrogate order be placed on the vessel Nobber in order to obtain more information from its captain. As I gave no indication of hostile intent, I believe the vessel may eventually return to Munich in order to conduct more live-fire exercises. At this point, the administrator at Passau has been instructed to forward the last known location of this vessel to currently-active members of the Kaiserliche Rheinwehr.

Guten Abend officers.
Today came to an unusual start. I was assigned to the furthermost patrol of the Rheinland-Liberty border, resulting in my path taking me to the Hudson system, along with the KKS Raeren. We encountered two Osiris class battleships at Manitoba station. Acting against Chapter 3, Article 6 for the Hudson system, where it states "Both houses are allowed to place one battleship in their zone to serve as base for their patrols. No other military installations are allowed".
They stated the reason for the military display for a "Nomad Threat" although they did not notify our government of any threats, to our knowledge. Stating they were there to scout the system. As the KKS Raeren pointed out, battleships were not exactly made for scouting.
I returned to the Carrier Soltau, and left the situation in the hands of the KKS Raeren and the RNC Sabaton.
Code:
[11.12.2022 00:49:57] [RM]Lt.Jurgen.Schmidt: Ah... Guten... tag...
[11.12.2022 00:50:00] 46th|LNX-Akhetaten: Uhmen: Good evening.
[11.12.2022 00:50:08] 46th|LNS-Anchorage: Kemp-Smith: Good evening to you.
[11.12.2022 00:50:12] [RM]Lt.Jurgen.Schmidt: A surprise to be sure...
[11.12.2022 00:50:58] [RM]Lt.Jurgen.Schmidt: Two battleships... this is... unexpected, may I say? [chuckles uncomfortably]
[11.12.2022 00:51:03] 46th|LNX-Akhetaten: Uhmen: It should not come as a surprise.
[11.12.2022 00:51:07] [RM]Lt.Jurgen.Schmidt: Vhat is the... uh... purpose here?
[11.12.2022 00:51:33] 46th|LNX-Akhetaten: Uhmen: The Akhetaten has been seen on this system plenty of times beforehand, Lieutenant.
[11.12.2022 00:51:37] [RM]Lt.Jurgen.Schmidt: As you should know, gentlemen, this is not an everyday appearance for a standard patrol?
[11.12.2022 00:51:56] 46th|LNX-Akhetaten: Uhmen: The reason behind our presence in the system are various reports from different sources stating the same thing.
[11.12.2022 00:52:06] 46th|LNX-Akhetaten: Uhmen: Nomad presence in the system.
[11.12.2022 00:52:21] 46th|LNX-Akhetaten: Uhmen: Of course, Lieutenant. This is no standard patrol.
[11.12.2022 00:52:49] [RM]Lt.Jurgen.Schmidt: Nomad, presence..?
[11.12.2022 00:53:06] [RM]Lt.Jurgen.Schmidt: That is... very unusual for this system. I was expecting along the lines of pirates
[11.12.2022 00:53:27] 46th|LNS-Anchorage: Kemp-Smith: Well, we were met a short while ago by a suicidal Rogue, but that's besides the point.
[11.12.2022 00:53:28] 46th|LNX-Akhetaten: Uhmen: We haven't been unfortunate enough to spot any Nomad warforms ourselves.
[11.12.2022 00:55:19] 46th|LNX-Akhetaten: Uhmen: Do Rheinland Military operatives not communicate between each other, I wonder?
[11.12.2022 00:55:37] 46th|LNX-Akhetaten: Uhmen: Of course I mean no offense with my words, Lieutenant, but the above should be no secret to the 'Military.
[11.12.2022 00:55:53] [RM]Lt.Jurgen.Schmidt: None taken
[11.12.2022 00:56:10] [RM]Lt.Jurgen.Schmidt: Although, I am sure we would be informed of something by your governments, if there was such a threat.
[11.12.2022 00:56:48] 46th|LNX-Akhetaten: Uhmen: The "threat" cannot be identified unless seen, Lieutenant, which is the purpose of the patrols.
[11.12.2022 00:57:08] 46th|LNX-Akhetaten: Uhmen: An unidentified threat is a threat the Government cannot legitimise or officialize.
[11.12.2022 00:57:29] [RM]Lt.Jurgen.Schmidt: So you are saying there.. are, no Nomad threat?
[11.12.2022 00:58:08] 46th|LNX-Akhetaten: Uhmen: Confirmed one? No. I mentioned that a few minutes ago.
[11.12.2022 00:58:15] Leipzig: on radar
[11.12.2022 00:58:24] [RM]Lt.Jurgen.Schmidt: Speaking of threats...
[11.12.2022 00:58:31] 46th|LNS-Anchorage: CIC: Unknown contact approaching. Ten clicks and rapidly approaching.
[11.12.2022 00:58:31] [RM]Lt.Jurgen.Schmidt: Good to see you, KKS Raeren
[11.12.2022 00:58:34] [RM]KKS-Raeren: Guten Tag everyone
[11.12.2022 00:58:39] Leipzig: all guns hot
[11.12.2022 00:58:41] 46th|LNX-Akhetaten: Uhmen: The Unioners. This just got even more interesting.
[11.12.2022 00:58:42] [RM]Lt.Jurgen.Schmidt: As you see, there are... two Liberty battleships
[11.12.2022 00:58:49] 46th|LNX-Akhetaten: Uhmen: Good evening, Raeren-actual.
[11.12.2022 00:59:08] [RM]Lt.Jurgen.Schmidt: I suppose the battleships may come in handy, this time
[11.12.2022 00:59:21] 46th|LNS-Anchorage: Kemp-Smith: Good evening to the Raeren.
[11.12.2022 00:59:42] Leipzig: pls leave the system
[11.12.2022 00:59:53] [RM]KKS-Raeren: If i may ask, what are 2 capital ships doing here in Hudson?
[11.12.2022 01:00:04] [RM]Lt.Jurgen.Schmidt: Not to play the situation but...
[11.12.2022 01:00:12] 46th|LNS-Anchorage: Kemp-Smith: Negative, Leizig. You hold no authority here. Cease and desist, immediately.
[11.12.2022 01:00:25] [RM]Lt.Jurgen.Schmidt: KKS Raeren, they were apparently sent to deal with a "Nomad Threat"
[11.12.2022 01:00:26] 46th|LNX-Akhetaten: Uhmen: [Sighs] Lieutenant, I am certain you can reply to the question.
[11.12.2022 01:00:28] Leipzig: not good sound
[11.12.2022 01:00:53] [RM]KKS-Raeren: Nomad Threat?
[11.12.2022 01:01:02] [RM]Lt.Jurgen.Schmidt: Gentlemen, may I ask the meaning behind such a large military display, without notifying our government?
[11.12.2022 01:01:39] [RM]KKS-Raeren: I can remember we had an agreement chapter 3 article 6 for Hudson?
[11.12.2022 01:01:48] 46th|LNS-Anchorage: Kemp-Smith: You did that, and you were duly notified of the reasoning of our presence.
[11.12.2022 01:01:56] 46th|LNX-Akhetaten: Uhmen: Both battleships involved in this are covering the Liberty-side of the Hudson-system, gentlemen.
[11.12.2022 01:02:16] [RM]KKS-Raeren: Correct, 1 battleship
[11.12.2022 01:02:32] [RM]Lt.Jurgen.Schmidt: If I am not mistaken, those are two military grade battleships...
[11.12.2022 01:03:10] 46th|LNX-Akhetaten: Uhmen: The Akhetaten and the Anchorage are both -not- bases of operations for patrols, gentlemen.
[11.12.2022 01:03:47] Leipzig: navy lets go to NY
[11.12.2022 01:04:59] [RM]KKS-Raeren: I don't mind you chasing nomads in this system, but we'd like to be notified if you plan a breach of agreements
[11.12.2022 01:05:08] Leipzig: or you want testing my guns ?
[11.12.2022 01:05:39] 46th|LNX-Akhetaten: Uhmen: The treaty that's signed clearly refers to battleships as military installations. Neither of the battleship's you-
[11.12.2022 01:05:41] [RM]Lt.Jurgen.Schmidt: should have brought bomber
[11.12.2022 01:05:45] 46th|LNX-Akhetaten: -see before you are military installations.
[11.12.2022 01:05:47] [RM]Lt.Jurgen.Schmidt: would have had to have gone back then
[11.12.2022 01:05:54] 46th|LNX-Akhetaten: Uhmen: But that being said, I can understand your concerns.
[11.12.2022 01:06:03] [RM]Lt.Jurgen.Schmidt: They sure seem like military installations...
[11.12.2022 01:06:11] [RM]Lt.Jurgen.Schmidt: No less threatening on our direct border.
[11.12.2022 01:06:12] Leipzig: haha allguns ready
[11.12.2022 01:06:25] 46th|LNX-Akhetaten: Uhmen: I am still, however, dumbfound by the fact that the Rheinland Military as a whole was not aware of the happenings-
[11.12.2022 01:06:28] 46th|LNX-Akhetaten: -in this system.
[11.12.2022 01:06:50] Leipzig: open fire
[11.12.2022 01:06:55] [RM]KKS-Raeren: Your leadership isn't to keen on sharing info with us
[11.12.2022 01:07:04] 46th|LNX-Akhetaten: Uhmen: Sheer, bring our batteries online and lock on that Unioner gunboat.
[11.12.2022 01:07:10] 46th|LNS-Anchorage: Kemp-Smith: If there is a threat poised to Liberty, we will freely deploy assets, as required, to secure the interests and --
[11.12.2022 01:07:12] [RM]KKS-Raeren: Even if it concerns an enemy to both of us
[11.12.2022 01:07:16] 46th|LNS-Anchorage: Kemp-Smith: Citizens of the Republic.
[11.12.2022 01:07:24] 46th|LNX-Akhetaten: Uhmen: You may fire if it does anything silly, Sheer.
[11.12.2022 01:07:49] [RM]KKS-Raeren: Then you can expect us to respond to your incursions with likewise assets
[11.12.2022 01:07:51] [RM]Lt.Jurgen.Schmidt: The citizens of "your republic" are no more valuable than our citizens.
[11.12.2022 01:08:06] 46th|LNS-Anchorage: Kemp-Smith: Your concerns, however, are duly heeded and cooperation as far as communications are concerned will --
[11.12.2022 01:08:13] 46th|LNS-Anchorage: Kemp-Smith: Surely improve, should such needs arise.
[11.12.2022 01:08:32] 46th|LNS-Anchorage: Kemp-Smith: A mutual understanding of said requirements would and should work both ways.
[11.12.2022 01:08:48] 46th|LNS-Anchorage: Kemp-Smith: Should the Rheinland Military need to do so as well.
[11.12.2022 01:09:15] [RM]Lt.Jurgen.Schmidt: [smiles] That is where we part ways, captains, you speak in words, I speak in actions. I have not seen any steps taken from-
[11.12.2022 01:09:15] [RM]KKS-Raeren: From what i see here, there has been a lack of that on your side
[11.12.2022 01:09:17] [RM]Lt.Jurgen.Schmidt: Your side
[11.12.2022 01:09:21] 46th|LNS-Anchorage: Kemp-Smith: Given we are military men, I'm sure we can mutually agree to understand the defense of our respective houses.
[11.12.2022 01:09:49] [RM]KKS-Raeren: On that we agree, where we disagree is that you send capital assests close to our borders
[11.12.2022 01:10:06] [RM]KKS-Raeren: You can understand we don't take these visits as friendly
[11.12.2022 01:10:09] 46th|LNX-Akhetaten: Uhmen: Hardly close to your borders, gentlemen.
[11.12.2022 01:10:30] [RM]Lt.Jurgen.Schmidt: You would not consider a direct tradeland to our space a "direct border"
[11.12.2022 01:10:30] 46th|LNS-Anchorage: Kemp-Smith: But you would do the same, were the roles reversed, correct?
[11.12.2022 01:10:34] 46th|LNX-Akhetaten: Uhmen: If we wished to be intimidating towards you our positioning, trajectory and placement would be vastly different.
[11.12.2022 01:11:04] [RM]KKS-Raeren: The same? No, we'd notify you of what our plans were if we'd enter close to your side of Hudson
[11.12.2022 01:11:24] 46th|LNX-Akhetaten: Uhmen: It is unwise, if not disrespectful, to put your border concerns -above- concerns regarding Nomad sightings in the-
[11.12.2022 01:11:26] 46th|LNX-Akhetaten: -system.
[11.12.2022 01:11:50] 46th|LNX-Akhetaten: Uhmen: Disrespectful towards your own people and towards the Libertonian authorities.
[11.12.2022 01:11:55] [RM]KKS-Raeren: It is disrespectful to get close to our border with capitals and NOT notify us of that
[11.12.2022 01:12:14] [RM]Lt.Jurgen.Schmidt: Gentlemen.
[11.12.2022 01:12:17] [RM]KKS-Raeren: Don't speak to me what's disrespectful and what not about my people
[11.12.2022 01:12:20] [RM]Lt.Jurgen.Schmidt: Please. Keep this civil.
[11.12.2022 01:12:40] 46th|LNX-Akhetaten: Uhmen: I am doing every attempt at that, Lieutenant.
[11.12.2022 01:13:02] [RM]Lt.Jurgen.Schmidt: We would like to be informed of the timing of this transmission to our government about the Nomad sightings.
[11.12.2022 01:13:58] 46th|LNS-Anchorage: Kemp-Smith: If there is a Nomad, posing a potential threat to either of our houses, I wouldn't care as to what assets you --
[11.12.2022 01:14:21] 46th|LNS-Anchorage: Kemp-Smith: Have in system. That is why we are both here, simple as, really. Cannot be any more clearer about it.
[11.12.2022 01:14:26] 46th|LNX-Akhetaten: Uhmen: The most 'useful' information I can give you regarding your inquire, is that the first broadcast we received was on-
[11.12.2022 01:14:35] 46th|LNX-Akhetaten: -the twenty-first of November, this year.
[11.12.2022 01:14:42] [RM]Lt.Jurgen.Schmidt: Gentlemen. Please answer my question before bringing your own
[11.12.2022 01:14:45] 46th|LNS-Anchorage: Kemp-Smith: In future, should time permit, we will cordially communicate via proper channels and coordinate efforts.
[11.12.2022 01:15:10] [RM]KKS-Raeren: Nomads or not, if you plan on breakign the treaty for whatever reason you will notify us.
[11.12.2022 01:15:17] [RM]KKS-Raeren: Thank you, glad that's clear.
[11.12.2022 01:15:28] 46th|LNX-Akhetaten: Uhmen: You should rest assured that if -I- personally spot any Nomads with my own eyes on this system, the Rheinland-
[11.12.2022 01:15:34] A/)-Revenant: Am I having double vision, or is there two Osiris's?
[11.12.2022 01:15:37] 46th|LNX-Akhetaten: -Military will be getting a report of my findings here.
[11.12.2022 01:15:43] [RM]Lt.Jurgen.Schmidt: You are seeing clearly, Auxesian vessel.
[11.12.2022 01:15:53] A/)-Revenant: Congratulations on the child, Uhmen.
[11.12.2022 01:16:13] 46th|LNX-Akhetaten: Uhmen: Revenant.
[11.12.2022 01:16:19] [RM]KKS-Raeren: Thank you for the understanding, LNX-Akhetaten.
[11.12.2022 01:16:22] 46th|LNX-Akhetaten: Uhmen: Always as charming as ever.
[11.12.2022 01:16:42] A/)-Revenant: That must have been the fifth Osiris I've seen in Liberty thus far.
[11.12.2022 01:17:43] A/)-Revenant: I couldn't help but notice that you had a mild border conflict a second ago.
[11.12.2022 01:17:54] [RM]Lt.Jurgen.Schmidt: Mild border...
[11.12.2022 01:18:00] A/)-Revenant: Being haunted again, hmm?
[11.12.2022 01:18:09] 46th|LNX-Akhetaten: Uhmen: I trust that this meaningless border argument has came to an end and that we can focus on our fruitful cooperation-
[11.12.2022 01:18:11] 46th|LNX-Akhetaten: -out here.
[11.12.2022 01:18:29] [RM]KKS-Raeren: About that, tell me about this... Nomad threat you speak.
[11.12.2022 01:19:01] 46th|LNX-Akhetaten: Uhmen: When we know, you will most certainly know as well.
[11.12.2022 01:19:08] [RM]Lt.Jurgen.Schmidt: And after that, there are... a few not so minor things we need to cover...
[11.12.2022 01:19:11] 46th|LNX-Akhetaten: Uhmen: I have no reason to keep such things a secret.
[11.12.2022 01:19:49] [RM]Lt.Jurgen.Schmidt: That being one of them. You keep explaining the... "Nomad Threat" although you also say there is none
[11.12.2022 01:19:53] [RM]KKS-Raeren: So just for recapping
[11.12.2022 01:20:04] [RM]KKS-Raeren: You send 2 battleships for a so called nomad threat nearby
[11.12.2022 01:20:10] 46th|LNX-Akhetaten: Uhmen: This is the third time we come to this conclusion, Lieutenant.
[11.12.2022 01:20:12] [RM]KKS-Raeren: Yet you can't give any info about it
[11.12.2022 01:20:31] 46th|LNS-Anchorage: Kemp-Smith: Let me handle this, Commodore.
[11.12.2022 01:20:38] A/)-Revenant: There has been sightings of Nomad incursions, mostly thralls though.
[11.12.2022 01:20:43] 46th|LNX-Akhetaten: Uhmen: Of course, sir.
[11.12.2022 01:21:07] 46th|LNS-Anchorage: Kemp-Smith: How it normally works, we receive reports on a Nomad presence in the system.
[11.12.2022 01:21:23] 46th|LNS-Anchorage: Kemp-Smith: We deploy assets to verify the reports, hence us being in system.
[11.12.2022 01:21:43] 46th|LNS-Anchorage: Kemp-Smith: If confirmed, we either engage to destroy, document and report our findings.
[11.12.2022 01:22:07] [RM]Lt.Jurgen.Schmidt: Surely a wing of fighters would be much more effective than two sluggish battleships
[11.12.2022 01:22:12] [RM]KKS-Raeren: And you plan on scouting the system with battleships?
[11.12.2022 01:22:38] [RM]KKS-Raeren: I must say, You and i have very different ways when it comes to strategies
[11.12.2022 01:23:03] 46th|LNS-Anchorage: Kemp-Smith: Clearly.
[11.12.2022 01:23:56] 46th|LNS-Anchorage: Kemp-Smith: Gunnery, if that pesk continues to fire on us, shoot back, freely.
[11.12.2022 01:25:06] [RM]Lt.Jurgen.Schmidt: So, you would not mind explaining your scout contigent of battleships?
[11.12.2022 01:25:16] [RM]Lt.Jurgen.Schmidt: A strategic flaw, or something else?
[11.12.2022 01:25:23] 46th|LNS-Anchorage: Kemp-Smith: I feel like I already have.
[11.12.2022 01:25:28] A/)-Revenant: I'm not sure why it is a great concern to you.
[11.12.2022 01:25:33] A/)-Revenant: They are on their side of the border, no?
[11.12.2022 01:25:36] 46th|LNS-Anchorage: Kemp-Smith: So, yes, in fact I would mind.
[11.12.2022 01:25:42] A/)-Revenant: How they waste their resources is their own decision.
[11.12.2022 01:25:53] [RM]KKS-Raeren: We have something called treaties
[11.12.2022 01:26:01] [RM]Lt.Jurgen.Schmidt: Raeren... please...
[11.12.2022 01:26:02] [RM]KKS-Raeren: And seems there is a miscomunnication about one
[11.12.2022 01:26:06] A/)-Revenant: Well - that Unioner is violating the treaty.
[11.12.2022 01:26:16] A/)-Revenant: Are you going to deal with it?
[11.12.2022 01:26:22] [RM]KKS-Raeren: That's the least of my concerns right now
[11.12.2022 01:26:29] [RM]Lt.Jurgen.Schmidt: Raeren...
[11.12.2022 01:26:36] [RM]KKS-Raeren: ?
[11.12.2022 01:26:42] [RM]KKS-Raeren: Ja?
[11.12.2022 01:27:14] A/)-Revenant: As long as the Navy sticks to their side and does not overextend, I'm sure it is fine.
[11.12.2022 01:27:17] [RM]Lt.Jurgen.Schmidt: Please. The Unioner is a priority, Our ships are not equipped to handle it
[11.12.2022 01:28:25] 46th|LNS-Anchorage: Kemp-Smith: Seems the Unioner has had enough.
[11.12.2022 01:28:50] A/)-Revenant: I wonder if there is even a conscious mind in there.
[11.12.2022 01:28:59] [RM]Lt.Jurgen.Schmidt: Raeren. I must go. Please, if there is anything more, or you run into any trouble, notify us immediately.
[11.12.2022 01:29:11] [RM]KKS-Raeren: Roger, safe skies
[11.12.2022 01:29:22] [RM]Lt.Jurgen.Schmidt: Guten abend captains. I will contact this to our Oberkommando
[11.12.2022 01:29:31] 46th|LNS-Anchorage: Kemp-Smith: Very well.
[11.12.2022 01:29:41] 46th|LNS-Anchorage: Kemp-Smith: Look forward to speaking to them.

Guten Abend Officers,
on my routine patrol through the Ruhrfeld, in order to map and root out illegal transportation of goods, i spotted a known signature.
The Rogue smuggler MeisterZim, having been stopped by me only a couple of weeks ago (Rheinwehr Report #2565). I decided to fine him one last time, confiscate his wares and escort him out - the next encounter, should he deem it worthwhile to risk more than his wares, will inevitably lead to the vessels destruction without escort as law dictates.
He was carrying Blood Diamonds for a contact in Liberty space. Given a lack of a suitable transportation vessel at that time, i destroyed the majority of his cargo and took a sample for examination and the possibility of retracing their origin.
[10.12.2022 20:13:54] Preparing to cloak...
[10.12.2022 20:14:15] Cloaking device on
[10.12.2022 20:17:24] [RM]Obl-Trau.Habermeyer: A familiar signature...
[10.12.2022 20:17:36] MeisterZim: what the hell
[10.12.2022 20:17:42] MeisterZim: *slaps com*
[10.12.2022 20:17:45] [RM]Obl-Trau.Habermeyer: It has been a while...
[10.12.2022 20:17:59] MeisterZim: Not you again
[10.12.2022 20:18:06] [RM]Obl-Trau.Habermeyer: Oh but i am afraid it is.
[10.12.2022 20:18:15] MeisterZim: I am literally at the jump hole
[10.12.2022 20:18:26] [RM]Obl-Trau.Habermeyer: Ja, to Hamburg. Still within Rheinland...
[10.12.2022 20:18:41] MeisterZim: ok true
[10.12.2022 20:18:49] [RM]Obl-Trau.Habermeyer: I've been most kind last time.
[10.12.2022 20:19:00] MeisterZim: yes i know
[10.12.2022 20:19:11] MeisterZim: Money is tight this week
[10.12.2022 20:19:16] [RM]Obl-Trau.Habermeyer: Then what do we do know? Is there... anything you'd like to tell me?
[10.12.2022 20:19:37] MeisterZim: what you want to know?
[10.12.2022 20:19:57] [RM]Obl-Trau.Habermeyer: This is a matter whether or not there is something you wish to tell me before i proceed.
[10.12.2022 20:20:06] [RM]Obl-Trau.Habermeyer: It may affect how this all goes down.
[10.12.2022 20:20:24] MeisterZim: I would take my chances
[10.12.2022 20:20:31] MeisterZim: If we would be in hamburg
[10.12.2022 20:20:42] MeisterZim: But im sure you already called for backup
[10.12.2022 20:20:52] [RM]Obl-Trau.Habermeyer: I might have done so.
[10.12.2022 20:21:02] [RM]Obl-Trau.Habermeyer: A shame that money is tight.
[10.12.2022 20:21:14] MeisterZim: yes it is
[10.12.2022 20:21:24] MeisterZim: Do what you have to do
[10.12.2022 20:21:27] [RM]Obl-Trau.Habermeyer: As for what i see... a fine is in order. And confiscated goods are to be handed over.
[10.12.2022 20:21:58] MeisterZim: Better then to end in Houston
[10.12.2022 20:22:09] [RM]Obl-Trau.Habermeyer: I'd bring you out after this one last time. Everything beyond that will be... violence. [10.12.2022 20:22:11] Cloaking device off
[10.12.2022 20:22:19] [RM]Obl-Trau.Habermeyer: No choice of mine in that matter.
[10.12.2022 20:22:30] MeisterZim: I see
[10.12.2022 20:22:55] [RM]Obl-Trau.Habermeyer: Indeed - repeated offenders are to be ... engaged without escort out of Rheinland. Third time's the charm or how they say.
[10.12.2022 20:23:39] MeisterZim: Then I will be compelled to open fire next time
[10.12.2022 20:23:56] MeisterZim: I wouldnt go down without a fight
[10.12.2022 20:24:02] MeisterZim: I am sure you understand
[10.12.2022 20:24:28] [RM]Obl-Trau.Habermeyer: We all do what we have to, don't we? For now... i'll have to insist on your current cargo. And a fine of 4.300.000 SC.
[10.12.2022 20:24:32] [RM]Obl-Trau.Habermeyer: As today is not that day. Yet.
[10.12.2022 20:24:50] MeisterZim: dropping cargo
[10.12.2022 20:25:01] [RM]Obl-Trau.Habermeyer: Wonderful....
[10.12.2022 20:25:10] [RM]Obl-Trau.Habermeyer: Would you mind sharing where you got those from?
[10.12.2022 20:25:15] MeisterZim: gct 4300000
[10.12.2022 20:25:23] [RM]Obl-Trau.Habermeyer: I'll be taking a sample for investigation...
[10.12.2022 20:25:28] MeisterZim: sorry my mics acting up
[10.12.2022 20:25:32] [RM]Obl-Trau.Habermeyer: No worries there. [10.12.2022 20:25:38] [2022-12-10] 20:25:39 You have received 4.300.000 credits from MeisterZim
[10.12.2022 20:25:44] [RM]Obl-Trau.Habermeyer: Fine paid - excellent.
[10.12.2022 20:25:48] MeisterZim: Id rather not
[10.12.2022 20:26:24] MeisterZim: I protect my soures
[10.12.2022 20:26:36] [RM]Obl-Trau.Habermeyer: Ahhhh. *Chuckles* As expected... no matter, they'll be thoroughly analyzed.
[10.12.2022 20:27:18] [RM]Obl-Trau.Habermeyer: A shame really... anyway, we have a route to take once more. As before - Hudson or Bering, up to you.
[10.12.2022 20:27:42] MeisterZim: Then Hudson this time
[10.12.2022 20:27:55] [RM]Obl-Trau.Habermeyer: Mhm, change of pace. I like it. Proceed.
[10.12.2022 20:29:47] [RM]Obl-Trau.Habermeyer: So - do i get a story for the current cargo as well? I doubt this is for ... what was it last time? Family gatherings?
[10.12.2022 20:30:02] MeisterZim: No this time i guess
[10.12.2022 20:30:15] MeisterZim: The diamonds pay for a lot in liberty
[10.12.2022 20:30:24] MeisterZim: Must be because they are forbidden
[10.12.2022 20:30:49] [RM]Obl-Trau.Habermeyer: Mhhhh... my presence must sting then. Understandably so, the forbidden fruit tends to taste best.
[10.12.2022 20:31:11] MeisterZim: I was nearly there....
[10.12.2022 20:31:24] [RM]Obl-Trau.Habermeyer: Well at least in Hamburg.
[10.12.2022 20:32:20] MeisterZim: If I had reached vierlande it would be just a cakewalk
[10.12.2022 20:32:34] MeisterZim: well no matter
[10.12.2022 20:32:46] MeisterZim: I will pick up other goods
[10.12.2022 20:33:01] [RM]Obl-Trau.Habermeyer: Maybe. We have eyes on this system as well. Indeed, it was not successful. Right, right. More legal goods was my suggestion
[10.12.2022 20:33:03] [RM]Obl-Trau.Habermeyer: last time.
[10.12.2022 20:33:26] [RM]Obl-Trau.Habermeyer: Didn't appear profitable enough i reckon...?
[10.12.2022 20:34:06] MeisterZim: I am banned to get a legal license in liberty and carrying food between base wont pay the bills
[10.12.2022 20:34:44] [RM]Obl-Trau.Habermeyer: Mhhhm. You got a ship to haul goods... no one out there to grant you a chance outside Liberty?
[10.12.2022 20:35:28] MeisterZim: Some did. The owners of the cargo you took were one of my clients
[10.12.2022 20:36:10] [RM]Obl-Trau.Habermeyer: Ah well, their choice of cargo is not the best for the route they let you take with it. Blood Diamonds and Rheinland ...
[10.12.2022 20:36:17] [RM]Obl-Trau.Habermeyer: ... doesn't go that well together.
[10.12.2022 20:36:30] MeisterZim: Yes a bad combination i guess
[10.12.2022 20:36:36] [RM]Obl-Trau.Habermeyer: Extremely
[10.12.2022 20:36:52] MeisterZim: Should have taken H-Fuel from Frankfurt back to Texas.....
[10.12.2022 20:37:04] [RM]Obl-Trau.Habermeyer: That would've made so much a lot easier.
[10.12.2022 20:37:05] MeisterZim: But the offer I got was too good
[10.12.2022 20:37:14] [RM]Obl-Trau.Habermeyer: High risk high reward...
[10.12.2022 20:37:19] [RM]Obl-Trau.Habermeyer: Sadly now no reward.
[10.12.2022 20:37:28] [RM]Obl-Trau.Habermeyer: Unless you count your life and ship, that is.
[10.12.2022 20:37:45] MeisterZim: Id call that win
[10.12.2022 20:37:58] [RM]Obl-Trau.Habermeyer: Good thing we still agree on that.
[10.12.2022 20:38:13] MeisterZim: If i was caught in liberty i would end in Sugarland
[10.12.2022 20:38:15] [RM]Obl-Trau.Habermeyer: Credits can be earned again, a ... life. Well, it cannot.
[10.12.2022 20:38:35] [RM]Obl-Trau.Habermeyer: Mhhh, one of their prisons, ja?
[10.12.2022 20:38:56] MeisterZim: They throw you in there for a parking violation...
[10.12.2022 20:39:08] MeisterZim: just to meet their damm weekly quota
[10.12.2022 20:39:53] [RM]Obl-Trau.Habermeyer: Mhm, well. They do what they are told to do. That can be viewed ... a couple of ways.
[10.12.2022 20:41:32] MeisterZim: true which is why the libery police does not get mercy from us Rogues
[10.12.2022 20:41:55] [RM]Obl-Trau.Habermeyer: Eye for an eye, tooth for a tooth
[10.12.2022 20:42:27] MeisterZim: No grudges to be held
[10.12.2022 20:42:34] MeisterZim: Thats just the way it is
[10.12.2022 20:42:36] [RM]Obl-Trau.Habermeyer: If you weren't a Rogue but ... let's say a Hessian this would've gone differently.
[10.12.2022 20:42:41] [RM]Obl-Trau.Habermeyer: Oh ja, that is just the way how things are.

Guten Abend Officers,
i arrived late in Hudson yet i believe i have a few additional pieces of information which will come in handy.
The main issue had, to my knowledge, already been taken care of. I took position near the Sabaton and the trade lane leading to the Hamburg gate.
Both Osiris-class vessels of the 46th Fleet were still present at that time. The Akhetaten under Commodore Uhmen, already known to me from prior visits to Hudson, as well as the Anchorage under Fleet Admiral Kemp-Smith.
A Freelancer on a Dunlin arrived at the scene, coming from somewhere around the Wrangell Field area. They expressed an interest in the presence of our capital assets in the system. Later they communicated to be ready for a meeting with Revenant. A certain Karl would be aboard. Revenant did not seem to be aware of any scheduled meeting - if this was merely for show or genuine surprise on her part is unknown to me.
[11.12.2022 03:03:46] Offensive.Vector: Greetings.
[11.12.2022 03:03:50] [RM]Obl-Trau.Habermeyer: Mhm, two ways to put this....
[11.12.2022 03:03:52] Offensive.Vector: Sorry, I was lost in my thoughts.
[11.12.2022 03:03:59] [RM]Obl-Trau.Habermeyer: Guten Abend, uhm ... ... Freelancer, i suppose.
[11.12.2022 03:04:01] 46th|LNX-Akhetaten: Uhmen: Good evening.
[11.12.2022 03:04:02] Offensive.Vector: That's, quite the gathering.
[11.12.2022 03:04:05] [RM]KKS-Raeren: Guten Abend
[11.12.2022 03:04:10] A/)-Revenant: Indeed.
[11.12.2022 03:04:20] A/)-Revenant: They all gathered here, just to anticipate for your arrival.
[11.12.2022 03:05:05] [RM]KKS-Raeren: And what a climax it was
[11.12.2022 03:05:05] Offensive.Vector: On-board AI: Irony detected in speech. Suggestion of action: carefulness.
[11.12.2022 03:05:24] A/)-Revenant: Partial truth. The reality is that anyone is expected.
[11.12.2022 03:05:26] Offensive.Vector: Hm, what did I do to deserve such a treatment?
[11.12.2022 03:06:13] Offensive.Vector: I barely talked and I'm already being talked passive-aggressively. Gotta love the Rheinland-Liberty border.
[11.12.2022 03:06:22] A/)-Revenant: There is no passion aggression here.
[11.12.2022 03:06:25] A/)-Revenant: It was but a mere jest.
[11.12.2022 03:06:32] [RM]Obl-Trau.Habermeyer: Still, always worth a visit.
[11.12.2022 03:06:42] Offensive.Vector: Either it's Xenos opening fire on sight, and now- fine then. I'll leave it to jokes.
[11.12.2022 03:07:03] [RM]Obl-Trau.Habermeyer: Something tells me you prefer this over Xenos opening fire on sight. But it's just a hunch.
[11.12.2022 03:07:05] Offensive.Vector: Sorry, I don't really expected such lighthearded discussion amongst capital-class vessels part of two different militaries.
[11.12.2022 03:07:33] Offensive.Vector: No. The Xenos are really the last thing I'd like to encounter.
[11.12.2022 03:08:08] Offensive.Vector: Not that you are a nuisance, don't be mistaken. I barely arrived. The Xenos are a nuisance. It's the first thing that came to -
[11.12.2022 03:08:12] Offensive.Vector: - my mind.
[11.12.2022 03:08:16] 46th|LNX-Akhetaten: Uhmen: With experience you'll eventually figure out that there can always be -some- amount of common ground.
[11.12.2022 03:08:23] RNC-Sabaton: RO: So much for "liberation front".
[11.12.2022 03:08:26] [RM]Obl-Trau.Habermeyer: Figured as much. *Amused* What brings you here? Passing through and now enjoying the unexpected company?
[11.12.2022 03:08:39] [RM]Obl-Trau.Habermeyer: Well, they liberate others from their goodwill towards them.
[11.12.2022 03:08:39] Offensive.Vector: Verily.
[11.12.2022 03:08:45] [RM]Obl-Trau.Habermeyer: So technically not wrong.
[11.12.2022 03:09:16] Offensive.Vector: The Xenos are not even worthy of being called a liberation front.
[11.12.2022 03:09:41] Offensive.Vector: They are a mere band of terrorist who simply destroys foreign shipments. Don't give them more credits than they deserve.
[11.12.2022 03:09:49] Offensive.Vector: //terrorists*
[11.12.2022 03:10:04] A/)-Revenant: Such lightheartedness is only beneficial for de-escalation, no?
[11.12.2022 03:10:16] A/)-Revenant: Ah, the Xenos are shortsighted.
[11.12.2022 03:10:28] A/)-Revenant: Yet contradictory, they desire freedom, yet impose restriction.
[11.12.2022 03:10:32] Offensive.Vector: So, uhm, time to adress the elephant in the room. Why are two capital-class vessels of two different militaries blocking the -
[11.12.2022 03:10:35] Offensive.Vector: - Trade Lanes?
[11.12.2022 03:10:35] RNC-Sabaton: RO: No terrorist threat should be treated lightly, Freelancer.
[11.12.2022 03:10:38] A/)-Revenant: Ultimately, they will crumble upon themselves.
[11.12.2022 03:10:50] A/)-Revenant: A mere security concern.
[11.12.2022 03:11:00] Offensive.Vector: I did not treat them lightly. I despise them. And I agree with the Auxo pilot over here.
[11.12.2022 03:11:01] A/)-Revenant: As you said yourself, Xenos are privy to making guests feel welcome.
[11.12.2022 03:11:08] RNC-Sabaton: RO: There is no blockade here, Freelancer. We're monitoring the system for terrorist acitivity.
[11.12.2022 03:11:36] 46th|LNX-Akhetaten: Uhmen: Think of it like a checkpoint more than a blockade point, Freelancer.
[11.12.2022 03:11:38] Offensive.Vector: Roger that. It just felt as if you were watching one another.
[11.12.2022 03:11:41] [RM]Obl-Trau.Habermeyer: Neither Liberty nor Rheinland takes security matters ... lightly. But ja, you are free to move. Lane traffic is not restricted
[11.12.2022 03:11:43] [RM]Obl-Trau.Habermeyer: all that much.
[11.12.2022 03:11:51] Offensive.Vector: I mean.
[11.12.2022 03:12:06] Offensive.Vector: I am seeing it as if they were facing each other. I'm reassured it is not the case.
[11.12.2022 03:12:24] 46th|LNX-Akhetaten: Uhmen: I mentioned something about common ground earlier, Freelancer.
[11.12.2022 03:12:31] Offensive.Vector: Indeed.
[11.12.2022 03:12:50] Offensive.Vector: Might as well join the party.
[11.12.2022 03:13:02] 46th|LNS-Anchorage: Kemp-Smith: We and the the Rheinland vessels have a mutual purpose and understanding, nothing else.
[11.12.2022 03:13:08] A/)-Revenant: Will it agitate you if I attempt to achieve such goals, Uhmen?
[11.12.2022 03:13:18] A/)-Revenant: I'm sure no one will be harmed.
[11.12.2022 03:13:35] 46th|LNX-Akhetaten: Uhmen: Define "such goals", Revenant. Are you referring to your earlier Stockhold syndrome incident?
[11.12.2022 03:13:42] 46th|LNX-Akhetaten: //Ignore the typo
[11.12.2022 03:13:47] A/)-Revenant: That is not the definition of Stockholm Syndrome.
[11.12.2022 03:13:58] 46th|LNX-Akhetaten: Uhmen: So you -are- referring to that.
[11.12.2022 03:14:07] A/)-Revenant: Such a case would be me willingly surrendering and envel--- No...
[11.12.2022 03:14:16] 46th|LNX-Akhetaten: Uhmen: Are you requesting the permission of a Commodore of the Liberty Navy to break the Law?
[11.12.2022 03:14:18] Offensive.Vector: This kind of mutual understanding, at least concerning the border systems, should be the subject of at least a treaty.
[11.12.2022 03:14:21] A/)-Revenant: Yes.
[11.12.2022 03:14:30] 46th|LNX-Akhetaten: [Uhmen sighed deeply]
[11.12.2022 03:14:38] RNC-Sabaton: RO: Yet you are willing to commit crimes in order to receive... What? Punishment? Adrenaline rush from being wanted by
[11.12.2022 03:14:43] RNC-Sabaton: the police?
[11.12.2022 03:14:44] 46th|LNS-Anchorage: Kemp-Smith: As it is, currently.
[11.12.2022 03:14:50] A/)-Revenant: If you give me permission, it is not illegal.
[11.12.2022 03:14:59] [RM]Obl-Trau.Habermeyer: It in fact is, Freelancer. The Liberty-Rheinland treaty, albeit it being a bit older at this point.
[11.12.2022 03:15:00] 46th|LNX-Akhetaten: Uhmen: I am not above the Law.
[11.12.2022 03:15:05] Offensive.Vector: Oh, there is a treaty covering the border systems, between Liberty and Rheinland?
[11.12.2022 03:15:07] A/)-Revenant: The law is not absolute.
[11.12.2022 03:15:13] 46th|LNS-Anchorage: Kemp-Smith: Yes, correct.
[11.12.2022 03:15:14] Offensive.Vector: Huh, well, you learn things every day.
[11.12.2022 03:15:21] Offensive.Vector: I'm glad this exists then.
[11.12.2022 03:15:25] [RM]Obl-Trau.Habermeyer: So are we.
[11.12.2022 03:15:40] 46th|LNS-Anchorage: Kemp-Smith: As are we, and I'm sure our counterparts.
[11.12.2022 03:16:02] [RM]KKS-Raeren: Jawuhl
[11.12.2022 03:16:03] Offensive.Vector: Unfortunately, the threat that poses terrorist groups from both Houses still persists... Making this treaty all the more -
[11.12.2022 03:16:06] A/)-Revenant: The purpose of such is for personal entertainment, Sabaton actual.
[11.12.2022 03:16:06] Offensive.Vector: - Relevant.
[11.12.2022 03:16:06] RNC-Sabaton: RO: Correct. This here is a common shared sandbox, if you will. Anything past our tradelane in our grounds. Same goes for-
[11.12.2022 03:16:13] RNC-Sabaton: -our Libertonian colleagues.
[11.12.2022 03:16:47] A/)-Revenant: Even more so reinforced by the idea that Liberty - perhaps in the future - would be agitated by an elder.
[11.12.2022 03:17:02] A/)-Revenant: Adds a little excitement.
[11.12.2022 03:17:14] Offensive.Vector: Hm? I do not understand.
[11.12.2022 03:17:15] A/)-Revenant: Do you think I would enjoy retirement confined to a canvas?
[11.12.2022 03:17:15] A/)-Revenant: Bah.
[11.12.2022 03:17:44] Offensive.Vector: Who are you referring to, if I may ask?
[11.12.2022 03:17:49] A/)-Revenant: It would certainly add some emotion to the creations.
[11.12.2022 03:18:14] A/)-Revenant: I am primarily speaking to Uhmen and the Sabaton.
[11.12.2022 03:18:32] Offensive.Vector: I have guessed this. I am simply trying to understand.
[11.12.2022 03:18:37] A/)-Revenant: Regarding retiring as an artisan.
[11.12.2022 03:18:39] 46th|LNX-Akhetaten: Uhmen: I've already given you my part of the answer, Revenant. I am not above the Law.
[11.12.2022 03:18:41] RNC-Sabaton: RO: She talks about spending her last days as a mischievous hag who finds loopholes in legal systems to avoid any-
[11.12.2022 03:18:42] A/)-Revenant: Within Liberty.
[11.12.2022 03:18:46] RNC-Sabaton: -substantial punishment.
[11.12.2022 03:18:55] A/)-Revenant: It isn't a loophole.
[11.12.2022 03:18:59] A/)-Revenant: It is simply mischief.
[11.12.2022 03:19:03] Offensive.Vector: *lifts an eyebrow, then sigh*
[11.12.2022 03:19:09] RNC-Sabaton: RO: Fine. Simple mischief.
[11.12.2022 03:19:26] RNC-Sabaton: RO: For no other particular reason other than her own entertainment.
[11.12.2022 03:19:33] A/)-Revenant: And no mentioned of being caught was made. Do you truly think I am that incapable of being a rascal?
[11.12.2022 03:19:38] RNC-Sabaton: RO: No grudges hold, no vengeances served.
[11.12.2022 03:19:44] Offensive.Vector: Do you know each other? It feels like banter now. *slight chuckle*
[11.12.2022 03:19:54] RNC-Sabaton: RO: Negative.
[11.12.2022 03:19:55] A/)-Revenant: Oh, no, we have only just met.
[11.12.2022 03:20:03] A/)-Revenant: I brought peace through a portrait.
[11.12.2022 03:20:14] Offensive.Vector: You are calling AKhetaten actual by their name.
[11.12.2022 03:20:18] Offensive.Vector: //Akhetaten*
[11.12.2022 03:20:24] A/)-Revenant: Oh, yes, she did try to kill me a few times.
[11.12.2022 03:20:31] Offensive.Vector: This is concerning.
[11.12.2022 03:20:35] 46th|LNX-Akhetaten: Uhmen: Emphasis on the word 'try'.
[11.12.2022 03:20:41] A/)-Revenant: No, just your average day in Liberty.
[11.12.2022 03:20:44] 46th|LNX-Akhetaten: Uhmen: I have yet to succeed, dearest Revenant.
[11.12.2022 03:20:49] A/)-Revenant: Yet.
[11.12.2022 03:20:55] A/)-Revenant: I'm sure my age will catch up to me.
[11.12.2022 03:21:09] [RM]KKS-Raeren: But your art will live forever
[11.12.2022 03:21:10] 46th|LNX-Akhetaten: Uhmen: How many centuries old?
[11.12.2022 03:21:16] A/)-Revenant: Excellent question.
[11.12.2022 03:21:20] A/)-Revenant: I don't remember.
[11.12.2022 03:21:24] A/)-Revenant: Many centuries.
[11.12.2022 03:21:28] A/)-Revenant: Possibly forever.
[11.12.2022 03:21:30] 46th|LNX-Akhetaten: Uhmen: Truly an ascended, devine being.
[11.12.2022 03:21:34] Offensive.Vector: By the way Revenant. If you have time, we can meet now, after you end your banter here. Karl is present on board.
[11.12.2022 03:21:38] Offensive.Vector: Devine?
[11.12.2022 03:21:53] A/)-Revenant: It is, Divine - my dear Uhmen.
[11.12.2022 03:22:02] Death: Dedcher was put out of action by a hostile vessel.
[11.12.2022 03:22:09] [RM]Obl-Trau.Habermeyer: ... huh.
[11.12.2022 03:22:15] [RM]Obl-Trau.Habermeyer: So much for passing through. *Amused*
[11.12.2022 03:22:24] A/)-Revenant: I do not even know a Karl.
[11.12.2022 03:22:27] A/)-Revenant: Except for a Unioner.
[11.12.2022 03:22:35] RNC-Sabaton: RO: That is how we ended up here. We were just passing through.
[11.12.2022 03:22:36] Offensive.Vector: *sighs*
[11.12.2022 03:22:36] A/)-Revenant: But it would ponder the query, why would I desire to meet a Unioner/
[11.12.2022 03:22:39] A/)-Revenant: ...?
[11.12.2022 03:23:03] Offensive.Vector: *facepalms sufficiently audibly to be picked up by the radio's microphone*
[11.12.2022 03:23:12] RNC-Sabaton: RO: A unioner, hm?
[11.12.2022 03:23:12] Death: Fluffy_Unicorn was put out of action by a hostile vessel.
[11.12.2022 03:23:14] A/)-Revenant: What?
[11.12.2022 03:23:18] A/)-Revenant: Yes.
[11.12.2022 03:23:32] RNC-Sabaton: RO: On board of... That ship?
[11.12.2022 03:23:35] Offensive.Vector: For your information, and for my protection, I am no Unioner.
[11.12.2022 03:23:58] Offensive.Vector: He has barely travelled to Rheinland.
[11.12.2022 03:24:21] RNC-Sabaton: RO: Yet he is affiliated with them, no?
[11.12.2022 03:24:34] 46th|LNS-Anchorage: Kemp-Smith: Think you may have talked yourself in to a long, eventful evening, Freelancer.
[11.12.2022 03:25:01] Offensive.Vector: Sorry, my radio was picking up another transmissio- it's still emitting, one second...
[11.12.2022 03:25:14] RNC-Sabaton: RO: Fantastic.
[11.12.2022 03:25:24] [RM]KKS-Raeren: More the merrier!
[11.12.2022 03:25:42] Offensive.Vector: I think it's gone? Alright. Sorry.
[11.12.2022 03:25:47] Offensive.Vector: So, what were we talking about?
[11.12.2022 03:25:55] RNC-Sabaton: RO: A unioner. Aboard your ship,
[11.12.2022 03:26:08] A/)-Revenant: I do not think that the vessel is of Unioner origin.
[11.12.2022 03:26:18] RNC-Sabaton: RO: No, no. That's not my concern.
[11.12.2022 03:26:27] A/)-Revenant: A man named Karl. Anyone can be a Karl and not be a Unioner.
[11.12.2022 03:26:31] Offensive.Vector: A unioner? As I said, the Karl aboard this ship has a Libertonian citizenship.
[11.12.2022 03:26:46] Offensive.Vector: He barely went to Rheinland, according to him, twice, for Baden Baden.
[11.12.2022 03:26:57] RNC-Sabaton: RO: That does not answer my question.
[11.12.2022 03:27:06] RNC-Sabaton: RO: Is he affiliated with the Unioners?
[11.12.2022 03:27:11] Offensive.Vector: No.
[11.12.2022 03:27:38] RNC-Sabaton: RO: Can you confirm, Revenant?
[11.12.2022 03:27:45] A/)-Revenant: You did not have to take my word so literal, I am certain there are many Karl's in this Sector.
[11.12.2022 03:27:52] Offensive.Vector: Just do it.
[11.12.2022 03:27:52] A/)-Revenant: and I'm sure that not every Karl is a Unioner.
[11.12.2022 03:28:00] A/)-Revenant: He is not the same Karl.
[11.12.2022 03:28:04] Offensive.Vector: Thank you.
[11.12.2022 03:28:08] Offensive.Vector: *sighs*
A third Liberty capital ship, this time an Overlord-class dreadnought - the Redback, approached. It exited the trade lane from Planet Atka to Manitoba station, unclear what it did there. Revenant mentioned a potentially interesting relationship between the Xenos and the Order, the latter backing the former. Proof of that is to be expected soon. Further talks were disrupted by a lone Liberty Rogue showing up, picking Revenant as their target. After some verbal banter the Rogue did indeed attack, which prompted me to engage. Present ships of both sides fired at first, driving the target from Manitoba out in the open. The Raeren rendered assistance, Revenant herself joined me after a moment, too. She landed the deciding blow.
It was at this time that a fourth Liberty capital ship entered the immediate vicinity of Manitoba Station. The Akubra, an Atlantis-class carrier with peculiar cargo. Commodore Uhmen was allegedly as confused as i was about both Secondary Fleet vessels and stated to not have called in backup. I have no way of confirming whether or not that was the truth.
[11.12.2022 03:40:45] A/)-Revenant: Allow me to illuminate something to you.
[11.12.2022 03:40:49] A/)-Revenant: The Order backs the Xenos.
[11.12.2022 03:40:55] Offensive.Vector: ....
[11.12.2022 03:40:58] [RM]Obl-Trau.Habermeyer: ... ahm. Mhmhm. A third one...?
[11.12.2022 03:41:08] 46th|LNX-Akhetaten: Uhmen: An unexpected visit.
[11.12.2022 03:41:09] [RM]KKS-Raeren: Guten Tag there!
[11.12.2022 03:41:12] RNC-Sabaton: RO: Interesting. Do you have any substantial proof to provide, Revenant?
[11.12.2022 03:41:12] Offensive.Vector: What makes you say that, Revenant?
[11.12.2022 03:41:27] A/)-Revenant: Observation.
[11.12.2022 03:41:38] A/)-Revenant: As well as experience.
[11.12.2022 03:41:50] A/)-Revenant: It isn't unusual for the Order to have underground connections everywhere.
[11.12.2022 03:41:55] A/)-Revenant: Likewise for most parties.
[11.12.2022 03:41:59] RNC-Sabaton: RO: Hm. Well, perhaps we'll need something more than that to make it official.
[11.12.2022 03:42:09] A/)-Revenant: Oh, I have plenty of imagery.
[11.12.2022 03:42:19] A/)-Revenant: As well as personal experience of being attacked by them.
[11.12.2022 03:42:40] RNC-Sabaton: RO: Please, do provide them to the Oberkommando. I believe our Libertonian colleagues will be invested, as well.
[11.12.2022 03:42:46] Offensive.Vector: Hm, I presume this holds true for underground organizations, they rely on each other, I assume.
[11.12.2022 03:43:14] Offensive.Vector: Is the Technocracy suddenly interested in cooperating with Liberty and Rheinland?
[11.12.2022 03:43:23] A/)-Revenant: I am but one individual.
[11.12.2022 03:43:36] 46th|LNX-Akhetaten: Uhmen: The Technocracy cooperating with the Republic of Liberty is an old case.
[11.12.2022 03:43:41] 46th|LNX-Akhetaten: Uhmen: One that ended pretty badly.
[11.12.2022 03:44:04] A/)-Revenant: It ended when the Fifth Fleet kept making incursions into Inverness, and when the rookie made one trespass to speak
[11.12.2022 03:44:06] A/)-Revenant: to an Officer.
[11.12.2022 03:44:28] 46th|LNX-Akhetaten: Uhmen: I did not throw any blames around, Revenant, don't get all personal.
[11.12.2022 03:44:37] 46th|LNX-Akhetaten: Uhmen: I merely mentioned that it ended badly.
[11.12.2022 03:44:45] A/)-Revenant: I did not say we were innocent either.
[11.12.2022 03:44:52] Offensive.Vector: Ah, this indeed reminds me of an Ancient Earth nation that behaved this way before the Alliance's inception.
[11.12.2022 03:44:54] A/)-Revenant: The rookie should never have crossed the gate.
[11.12.2022 03:45:03] RNC-Sabaton: RO: Sounds like no permanent damage was done, regardless.
[11.12.2022 03:45:40] A/)-Revenant: Who do you wish for me to send the data to, Sabaton?
[11.12.2022 03:45:53] Offensive.Vector: Anchorage actual. I would like to meet with you in private in the near future. I cannot talk about it on the Neural Net.
[11.12.2022 03:46:29] RNC-Sabaton: RO: Relay it to Rheinland Military Oberkommando. I believe our Libertonian colleagues would want to know about this, too.
[11.12.2022 03:46:33] 46th|LNS-Anchorage: Kemp-Smith: As a Fleet Admiral, that is very unlikely to happen.
[11.12.2022 03:46:48] A/)-Revenant: Mm. I will attach your name as a point of reference for ... well, referencing.
[11.12.2022 03:46:53] 46th|LNS-Anchorage: Kemp-Smith: We can open a secure channel if there's something you wish to privately discuss now?
[11.12.2022 03:47:15] Offensive.Vector: Anchorage actual, I will open an encrypted radio transmission with you.
[11.12.2022 03:47:16] RNC-Sabaton: RO: Contact.
[11.12.2022 03:47:18] 46th|LNX-Akhetaten: Uhmen: Of course I would indulge in any intelligence regarding the matter.
[11.12.2022 03:47:24] [RM]KKS-Raeren: I'm sure you can... Anomaly spotted!
[11.12.2022 03:47:28] 46th|LNS-Anchorage: Kemp-Smith: Very well. Standing by.
[11.12.2022 03:47:30] RNC-Sabaton: RO: Ah, a single Bloodhound.
[11.12.2022 03:47:51] [RM]KKS-Raeren: Guten tag there!
[11.12.2022 03:48:27] [RM]KKS-Raeren: Halt bitte
[11.12.2022 03:48:28] Liberty.Rogue!: Eh?
[11.12.2022 03:49:06] Offensive.Vector: I suppose you can let it live.
[11.12.2022 03:49:07] Liberty.Rogue!: Sum nasty fellas here.
[11.12.2022 03:49:20] 46th|LNX-Akhetaten: Uhmen: Including or excluding yourself?
[11.12.2022 03:49:25] [RM]Obl-Trau.Habermeyer: Keep your distance, Rogue...
[11.12.2022 03:49:31] RNC-Sabaton: RO: We're not savages. Unlike you.
[11.12.2022 03:49:34] Liberty.Rogue!: Left this one sucking space last we met, ha!
[11.12.2022 03:49:49] [RM]Obl-Trau.Habermeyer: Mhmf.
[11.12.2022 03:50:08] Liberty.Rogue!: And this nasty little cyborg.
[11.12.2022 03:50:19] Liberty.Rogue!: Hidin' behind it's cyborg... friends...
[11.12.2022 03:50:20] 46th|LNX-Akhetaten: Uhmen: You touch anyone here and you'll have our Jackhammers to deal with.
[11.12.2022 03:50:30] A/)-Revenant: I did forewarn you that violence could simply be avoided.
[11.12.2022 03:50:32] [RM]KKS-Raeren: And that not alone
[11.12.2022 03:50:34] Liberty.Rogue!: Eh quit your act.
[11.12.2022 03:50:36] 46th|LNX-Akhetaten: Uhmen: Consider yourself warned.
[11.12.2022 03:50:39] A/)-Revenant: But it appears you lack a certain awareness.
[11.12.2022 03:50:47] [RM]Obl-Trau.Habermeyer: All too common with those.
[11.12.2022 03:50:55] Liberty.Rogue!: I'm more than aware.
[11.12.2022 03:51:21] Offensive.Vector: Seems like Revenant has a lot of friends, or "friends", or else.
[11.12.2022 03:51:28] Liberty.Rogue!: Maybe this time I blow you up for real!
[11.12.2022 03:51:37] A/)-Revenant: Such a fixation upon me.
[11.12.2022 03:51:40] A/)-Revenant: How curious.
[11.12.2022 03:51:41] [RM]KKS-Raeren: Had a scanner problem Rogue? I thought you folks were sneakier
[11.12.2022 03:52:00] Liberty.Rogue!: Pfft. I don't need to be sneaky.
[11.12.2022 03:52:13] Liberty.Rogue!: I'm the A-dog where I'm from.
[11.12.2022 03:52:19] A/)-Revenant: Is that so?
[11.12.2022 03:52:29] A/)-Revenant: I know a few Rogues who would happily contest to that claim.
[11.12.2022 03:52:30] Liberty.Rogue!: I think you know that for a fact.
[11.12.2022 03:52:57] Liberty.Rogue!: All dem cowards.
[11.12.2022 03:53:01] Liberty.Rogue!: Talkin.
[11.12.2022 03:53:03] RNC-Sabaton: RO: [to the side] ...punktverteidigung, bereiten sie sich darauf vor, sich zu engagieren...
[11.12.2022 03:53:03] Liberty.Rogue!: Making deals.
[11.12.2022 03:53:05] Liberty.Rogue!: Pfft.
[11.12.2022 03:53:13] [RM]KKS-Raeren: Revenant has shown not to be a threat so far. Any form of attacking him will be met with full fire from Rheinland side.
[11.12.2022 03:53:29] Liberty.Rogue!: You're a simp, I get it.
[11.12.2022 03:53:36] A/)-Revenant: It appears to me that you are insecure of yourself.
[11.12.2022 03:53:40] A/)-Revenant: Do you perhaps feel lonely?
[11.12.2022 03:53:46] A/)-Revenant: Did your friends abandon you?
[11.12.2022 03:53:53] Liberty.Rogue!: I do feel a bit lonely.
[11.12.2022 03:53:59] Liberty.Rogue!: That's why I came out here.
[11.12.2022 03:54:01] A/)-Revenant: Perhaps another tragic story of parental abandonment?
[11.12.2022 03:54:04] Liberty.Rogue!: To get some company.
[11.12.2022 03:56:20] Liberty.Rogue!: I did offer.
[11.12.2022 03:56:37] Liberty.Rogue!: Guess I could just shoot ye instead.
[11.12.2022 03:56:43] A/)-Revenant: You know,
[11.12.2022 03:56:48] A/)-Revenant: If you truly desired something.
[11.12.2022 03:56:49] Offensive.Vector: Akhetaten actual, I would advise you to contract us in the event of a hostile situation. We are fine with a 2 million fee.
[11.12.2022 03:56:55] A/)-Revenant: It's probably more optimal to earn my favour.
[11.12.2022 03:57:03] A/)-Revenant: I tend to do things for people that I like.
[11.12.2022 03:57:11] 46th|LNX-Akhetaten: Uhmen: We will see about that, Freelancer.
[11.12.2022 03:57:15] Liberty.Rogue!: Mmm.
[11.12.2022 03:57:18] Liberty.Rogue!: Nahhhh.
[11.12.2022 03:57:23] Liberty.Rogue!: I'm no simp.
[11.12.2022 03:57:24] RNC-Sabaton: RO: I believe there's an abundancy of firepower on the scene.
[11.12.2022 03:57:46] A/)-Revenant: Then perhaps you shall be lonely for all time then.
[11.12.2022 03:57:59] Liberty.Rogue!: Bleh, shut up and die!
[11.12.2022 03:57:59] Offensive.Vector: It is a preemptive measure, but so be it. You are aware that we as Freelancers, cannot act this way.
[11.12.2022 03:58:00] A/)-Revenant: Connections make the world go around, Rogue.
[11.12.2022 03:58:06] [RM]Obl-Trau.Habermeyer: Wrong choice, Rogue.
[11.12.2022 03:58:06] RNC-Sabaton: RO: Aim.
[11.12.2022 03:58:07] Offensive.Vector: Hostile event.
[11.12.2022 03:58:10] [RM]Obl-Trau.Habermeyer: Target acquired - weapons hot!
[11.12.2022 03:58:15] 46th|LNX-Akhetaten: Uhmen: You're cleared to open fire, Sheer.
[11.12.2022 03:58:17] RNC-Sabaton: RO: Fire.
[11.12.2022 03:58:20] [RM]KKS-Raeren: Opening fire!
[11.12.2022 03:58:21] [RM]Obl-Trau.Habermeyer: Engaging the enemy! For Rheinland!
[11.12.2022 03:58:22] Offensive.Vector: Well.
[11.12.2022 03:58:45] Offensive.Vector: I'm out of the fun it seems. Despite having an equipment designed against fighters.
[11.12.2022 03:58:48] Offensive.Vector: Mostly.
[11.12.2022 03:58:56] Offensive.Vector: Anchorage actual?
[11.12.2022 03:59:05] 46th|LNS-Anchorage: Kemp-Smith: Send traffic.
[11.12.2022 03:59:23] Offensive.Vector: Eh?
[11.12.2022 03:59:32] 46th|LNS-Anchorage: Kemp-Smith: You hailed?
[11.12.2022 03:59:42] RNC-Sabaton: RO: Oberleutnant, I advise you to remain in vicinity of allied forces.
[11.12.2022 03:59:49] Offensive.Vector: Yes. I was referring to contracting me, to get rid of this terrorist.
[11.12.2022 04:00:10] 46th|LNS-Anchorage: Kemp-Smith: It seems sufficiently handled, at present. Stand down, for now.
[11.12.2022 04:00:19] Offensive.Vector: Akhetaten actual doesn't seem eager, or willing-- right.
[11.12.2022 04:00:41] 46th|LNX-Akhetaten: Uhmen: I do not remember taking orders from Freelancers.
[11.12.2022 04:00:56] 46th|LNX-Akhetaten: Uhmen: If the fighters require our cover they will simply fly towards us.
[11.12.2022 04:01:11] Offensive.Vector: It was not an order. If you feel this way, I would advise you to re-listen to our sent messages.
[11.12.2022 04:01:23] Offensive.Vector: It was an advice.
[11.12.2022 04:01:39] 46th|LNX-Akhetaten: Uhmen: I did not ask for nor do I need your advice.
[11.12.2022 04:01:40] RNC-Sabaton: RO: Translation - the Freelancer wants some quick buck for shooting down a rogue.
[11.12.2022 04:01:45] Offensive.Vector: And a recommendation of making a contract to preemptively be ready to get rid of a terrorist?
[11.12.2022 04:02:05] RNC-Sabaton: RO: I believe it is handled.
[11.12.2022 04:02:21] Offensive.Vector: Actually, it is more of an opinion question, and the fee was low, and more of a symbolic one.
[11.12.2022 04:02:37] Offensive.Vector: Just to enter the laws of being a Freelancer, and not anger The Powers That Be.
[11.12.2022 04:02:39] RNC-Sabaton: RO: Shall it get out of control, our allies can retreat to us.
[11.12.2022 04:02:45] 46th|LNX-Akhetaten: Uhmen: Please, do continue, I am most interested.
[11.12.2022 04:03:03] RNC-Sabaton: RO: I would not speak of -them-, Freelancer.
[11.12.2022 04:03:08] RNC-Sabaton: RO: Best not to mention.
[11.12.2022 04:03:21] Offensive.Vector: I am referring to the Houses' Police.
[11.12.2022 04:03:31] Offensive.Vector: And the Houses themselves.
[11.12.2022 04:03:55] Offensive.Vector: At least one similar organization has already angered a House.
[11.12.2022 04:04:59] RNC-Sabaton: RO: Redback-actual, I would advise against firing explosive ordinance at that Rogue.
[11.12.2022 04:05:07] RNC-Sabaton: RO: You put our forces at risk.
[11.12.2022 04:05:31] [RM]KKS-Raeren: Apologies for friendly fire
[11.12.2022 04:05:35] Redback: then tell them to leave and fight elsewhere
[11.12.2022 04:05:36] 46th|LNS-Anchorage: Kemp-Smith: Agreed. Weapons hold, all capital units.
[11.12.2022 04:05:52] 46th|LNX-Akhetaten: Uhmen: Order acknowledged.
[11.12.2022 04:05:54] RNC-Sabaton: RO: Point-defense, keep an eye on that pest. Waste them if they get close.
[11.12.2022 04:06:06] 46th|LNS-Anchorage: Kemp-Smith: Redback-actual, confirm weapons hold.
[11.12.2022 04:06:07] RNC-Sabaton: RO: Make sure we don't harm our allies.
[11.12.2022 04:08:22] Offensive.Vector: Hmm. The system's on-board AI has a defective targetting system. [11.12.2022 04:08:27] Death: Liberty.Rogue! was put out of action by A/)-Revenant (Gun).
[11.12.2022 04:08:35] RNC-Sabaton: RO: Area clear.
[11.12.2022 04:08:41] [RM]KKS-Raeren: Well Done, Trau und Revenant
[11.12.2022 04:08:45] [RM]Obl-Trau.Habermeyer: Mhmh...
[11.12.2022 04:08:45] RNC-Sabaton: RO: Well handled, kameraden.
[11.12.2022 04:08:46] Offensive.Vector: No, it's rather the lack of personnel... Yes, it's a skeleton crew currently manning the ship.
[11.12.2022 04:08:52] 46th|LNS-Anchorage: Kemp-Smith: Sitrep?
[11.12.2022 04:08:52] 46th|LNX-Akhetaten: Uhmen: Well done indeed.
[11.12.2022 04:09:03] [RM]KKS-Raeren: Not sure what was going on in that rogues mind
[11.12.2022 04:09:14] [RM]Obl-Trau.Habermeyer: No major damage to my vessel. Might have to check the targeting systems ...
[11.12.2022 04:09:15] Offensive.Vector: One less Rogue in Sirius.
[11.12.2022 04:09:22] [RM]Obl-Trau.Habermeyer: Returning to position.
[11.12.2022 04:09:22] A/)-Revenant: I'm too old to fight properly.
[11.12.2022 04:09:35] Offensive.Vector: Well, you're still here.
[11.12.2022 04:09:58] A/)-Revenant: I would be highly concerned if the security here was not able to stop one meager Rogue.
[11.12.2022 04:10:09] RNC-Sabaton: RO: I have to commend this Rogue's boldness. Clearly, he engaged someone in presence of... -This- much lawful enforcers.
[11.12.2022 04:10:28] [RM]Obl-Trau.Habermeyer: Hold on .... when did a _fourth_ Navy capital turn up here?
[11.12.2022 04:10:38] A/)-Revenant: Just arrived.
[11.12.2022 04:10:59] Offensive.Vector: On-board AI: Diagnostic of the <targeting systems> finished. Turrets are not correctly <manned>. Hypothetical fighting-
[11.12.2022 04:11:02] [RM]Obl-Trau.Habermeyer: Did ... i miss something here? With all due respect, that is an impressive amount.
[11.12.2022 04:11:10] Offensive.Vector: competency estimated to be <79.3%>
[11.12.2022 04:11:50] 46th|LNX-Akhetaten: Uhmen: I am as confused by the Secondary Fleet ships as you are, Oberleutnant.
[11.12.2022 04:11:50] [RM]KKS-Raeren: hmmm that's odd
[11.12.2022 04:11:55] 46th|LNS-Anchorage: Kemp-Smith: Akhetaten-actual, you have command. I need to relay a communications via Manitoba.
[11.12.2022 04:12:01] 46th|LNX-Akhetaten: Uhmen: We did not request backup.
[11.12.2022 04:12:05] Offensive.Vector: AI: Suggestion: Addition of 2.38 personnel to up the personnel at <redacted>, for a nominaly fighting competency.
[11.12.2022 04:12:13] 46th|LNS-Anchorage: Kemp-Smith: Do as you see fit with the Secondary Fleet vessels present.
[11.12.2022 04:12:20] 46th|LNX-Akhetaten: Uhmen: Orders received and acknowledged Fleet Admiral, sir. [11.12.2022 04:12:22] 2022-12-11 04:12:23 SMT Traffic control alert: Akubra has requested to dock
[11.12.2022 04:12:24] Offensive.Vector: Uh. AI, where would I get 0.38 of someone?
[11.12.2022 04:12:32] 46th|LNS-Anchorage: Kemp-Smith: To everyone else, I bid you a good evening.
[11.12.2022 04:12:45] RNC-Sabaton: RO: Safe skies, Fleet Admiral.
[11.12.2022 04:12:46] Offensive.Vector: Goodbye, Anchorage actual.
[11.12.2022 04:12:50] 46th|LNS-Anchorage: Kemp-Smith: Manitoba, Anchorage-actual. Requesting permission to moor, over.
[11.12.2022 04:12:52] [RM]Obl-Trau.Habermeyer: Auf Wiedersehen, sir. A good evening. [11.12.2022 04:12:58] 2022-12-11 04:12:59 SMT Traffic control alert: Redback has requested to dock
[11.12.2022 04:13:05] [RM]KKS-Raeren: Gute Nacht!
[11.12.2022 04:13:07] A/)-Revenant: A shockingly more respectful Fleet Admiral than the others. [11.12.2022 04:13:12] 2022-12-11 04:13:13 SMT Traffic control alert: 46th|LNS-Anchorage has requested to dock
[11.12.2022 04:13:29] RNC-Sabaton: RO: Perhaps, Liberty has re-evaluated its standards.
[11.12.2022 04:13:44] [RM]Obl-Trau.Habermeyer: First one i met in person. You are... alright, by the way? I must've missed that, should you have mentioned it earlier Revenant
[11.12.2022 04:13:52] A/)-Revenant: Sadly, some fanatics still exist.
[11.12.2022 04:14:00] A/)-Revenant: Van Leer's army of demented meerkats.
[11.12.2022 04:14:09] Offensive.Vector: On-board AI: The standards have been estimated to have fallen, since 800 A.S., by around <50%>.
[11.12.2022 04:14:13] RNC-Sabaton: RO: Every military has its own fanatics. It's inevitable.
[11.12.2022 04:14:19] A/)-Revenant: Quite.
[11.12.2022 04:14:59] Offensive.Vector: AI: The Nomad War affected most. <Secondary Fleets>, second, as most probable reason for Liberty's power to have reduced.
[11.12.2022 04:15:09] Offensive.Vector: AI: Thirdly, conflicts with <Gallia>.
[11.12.2022 04:15:35] A/)-Revenant: Habermeyer, I'm well, but I won't survive another jump from undesirables.
[11.12.2022 04:15:55] A/)-Revenant: I was concerned for your wellfare in that fight, but it seemed he hardly dented you.
[11.12.2022 04:15:55] Offensive.Vector: Okay, okay, shut up now. "<mute openspeech>"
[11.12.2022 04:16:10] [RM]KKS-Raeren: Trau has been practicing a lot
[11.12.2022 04:16:35] A/)-Revenant: Good to see improvements.
[11.12.2022 04:16:36] [RM]KKS-Raeren: Wish all our pilots have been as motivated as her
[11.12.2022 04:16:37] [RM]Obl-Trau.Habermeyer: I am touched by that concern, but .... i was alright for the most part. Indeed.
[11.12.2022 04:17:11] [RM]Obl-Trau.Habermeyer: Means we'll keep another jump like that from happening.

Guten Abend Offiziere.
I regret to inform you of an incident which occurred yesterday, and concluded in major damage to the vessel RNC-Wetzlar, and my own ship.
I was made aware of potentially suspicious activity in the Frakfurt system by Leutnant Jurgen Schmidt and Flieger Jonas Wagner. We proceeded to split the system, with Fl. Wagner proceeding to jumping off points to New Berlin and Sigma-13 and myself sweeping through the Hausenfeld. Meanwhile, Ltn Jurgen Schmidt was advised by Schwerin of a potential Coalition warship in-system. The vessel RNC-Wetzlar was swiftly scrambled by Schwerin to search for and intercept the threat.
On its way to its target sector, the Wetzlar reported sightings of a loose group of freelancers. It seems their purpose was escorting and then filling a Barge-class vessel from within the Hausenfeld (this activity will be forwarded to the Kruger Mineralen corporate offices for further investigation). I did not detect this sighting myself, as the group approached from the Neu Berlin anomaly, which seems an exceedingly foolish undertaking for a vessel with such tonnage.
It is lucky for us that this group was in attendance, as investigating this sighting lead us straight across the route of the Coalition warship (designation: Fryapa). Obl. Trau Habermeyer, newly arrived on the scene, managed to get the vessel on scanners, and tracked it as it moved away from the jump anomaly towards Mannheim. The Wetzlar honed in on Obl. Habermeyer’s transponder and quickly closed with the contact. Fl. Wagner proposed a switch out to a Revenant-class, and I quickly proceeded to Mannheim to catch a fast packet to Battleship Kolleda, where my ship was undergoing minor repairs.
I updated the CO of the Wetzlar with my ETA from Kolleda. Upon receipt of this transmission, I overheard squad chatter that a ship was needed in other places. I did not realize at the time that this transmission was meant for me. On my way to the combat area, my scanners detected a light Corsair vessel on approach, which I forwarded to the squad.
Upon approaching the updated coordinates of the Wetzlar and the Coalition vessel, I requested permission to engage, but was denied to do so by the Wetzlar’s CO. At the same time, I detected the aforementioned Corsair on approach. Seeing as the situation was under control, I flew back to Schwerin in order swap out for the Disir-class for mop-up further reconnaissance operations. I humbly submit that this was a critical mistake. I should have remained on scene, and provided assistance to the Wetzlar which would soon prove necessary.
Upon returning to the scene, I discovered that the Corsair ship was engaged by Fl. Wagner in Rot-1 (Roc-class), with Obl. Habermeyer observing. With no further warning, my scanners picked up increasing heat signatures from the Wetzlar, and in a few more seconds an explosion was registered on the particle detector. Meanwhile, the Coalition vessel still maintained steering, and was searching for additional targets. I engaged the Corsair, while Fl. Wagner switched targets to the Coalition cruiser. Obl. Habermeyer offered assistance after a few moments, which I gladly accepted. I believe that she was torn between losing valuable time while switching out to another Revenant-class in order to challenge the Coalition vessel, or taking on the Corsair then and there. I submit that her decision was correct, as the Corsair pilot was more than a match for me alone, as this individual managed to disable my ship even with Obl. Habermeyer assisting.
As I limped back to Schwerin, a freelancer (designation: Nate.Ross) was employed to keep the coalition vessel pinned down, as it attempted to cruise into deep space. The KKS-Ostkantone was arriving on the scene, and Fl. Wagner switched targets back to the Corsair. At this point, I exited the short-range transmission envelope and disconnected from the squad channel to avoid distracting the commanders.

[11.12.2022 20:13:55] [RM]Bmn-Elias.Beist: Guten Tag, anything to report?
[11.12.2022 20:14:48] [RM]Saboteur: many people in frankfurt

[11.12.2022 20:14:58] [RM]Bmn-Elias.Beist: Affirmative
[11.12.2022 20:16:05] [RM]Lt.Jurgen.Schmidt: hello there
[11.12.2022 20:16:19] [RM]Bmn-Elias.Beist: I am near the Frankfort jump gate
[11.12.2022 20:16:27] [RM]Lt.Jurgen.Schmidt: what are you doing?
[11.12.2022 20:16:41] [RM]Rot-1: also checking frankfurt

[11.12.2022 20:17:55] [RM]Lt.Jurgen.Schmidt: then we can impose our will on lesser factions
[11.12.2022 20:17:56] [RM]Rot-1: you go
[11.12.2022 20:18:03] [RM]Lt.Jurgen.Schmidt: like in S15 or Omega-7
