I apologize for the false nature of the Communications ID but it was necessary. Jake Hudson brought this matter to my attention and I am attempting to restrain him from opening a bloody channel to the IMG to rail on them. So with his unwilling restraint in the matter, I am contacting you.
Nearly a year ago we encountered a regiment of Hessian combatants in control of several IMG ships. These ships did more than their far share of damage within the Borders of Rheinland. The IMG stated that the Hessians acquiring of these ships were due in part of a pact made with the Hessians that had long since been absolved. This left us to deal with the Hessians using IMG technology, alone.
What about current events? Hessians using new IMG technologies against Rheinland?
I doubt the IMG can use the same excuse when these new IMG ships fly a Hessian flag.

I would never take your time if we didn't.
Computer, replay time index zero-six, eleven, twelve. Display gun camera one, two and three.
It's clearly an IMG ship. I've never seen one like this. Apparently their Zephyr designs were replaced or this is just another class they have.
In any case, I'm rotating patrols to have Cedric Richards in his bomber to stay in Stuttgart for awhile. No bloody way a gunboat will have a chance against that kind of direct firepower.
On another note. When Jake communicated to a Military support ship RNC-Konigstiger to help, the Hessian knew about it and immediately ran back to Dresden. He even commented that he expected the Military vessel to show even though there was never any sensor contact. That whole event was rather unsettling to hear. I do hope there aren't leaks between your captial ship Commanders and these Hessians.

Herr Marshal, your information is as new as the cruise engine systems on ships. The Hessians have been flying these IMG capitals for years now, Im shocked that you didnt notice them in Rheinland before since they are quite hard to miss. But then again, you do look like an Ausländer to me. The IMG have stated several times that those capital ships were stolen by the Hessians. How were they stolen? I wouldnt know mein Herr, Im not a god damn investigator.
Oh and, Ausländer. The next time you accuse any of my RNC Captains of treason, or even hint at it, I will have you caught and questioned for instigating riots and throwing mud on the fine soldiers of the Rheinland Militär. Verstanden?

Well chap there is objectivity and common sense.
Now I've personally engaged these rouge Argus and Zephyr ships in Omega 7 over a year ago so I know what ships fell into Hessian control what they look like and what they were capable of. You're saying this model of Battlecruiser, the Sagarmatha class, has been around for years? Has anyone seen this new ship design two years ago? Or even one year? You don't have to be a god damn investigator to figure that one out.
If this was an Argus or Zephyr, I wouldn't have bothered you with this. So unless you can give me some reason to believe this Sagarmatha class was some long existed design, I'm not buying it.
Perhaps you can you also help me to understand how that Hessian commander, not only knew about the approaching Rheinland ship, taking an evasive course just as help was requested to a Rheinalnd Military Captain, but how that Hessian expressed exactly this to one of us?
Hessian sympathizers exists. You know it and I know it. I supposes suppressing information as overt as this would put you right by my side on a firing squad, Supreme Command.
There are also a lot more people on a Capital ship than its Captain, so the risk of this increases. We're the ones at gun point from the Hessian ships too.
Also, Supreme Command, I will not be talked down to by anyone. Not even the Rheinland Military. If we made a mistake by informing you of an enemy battlecruiser in Stuttgart then you may wish us to simply ignore anything above a freighter to accommodate making this mistake again.
We've put our butts on the line for over a year here, put aside our differences and fought your enemies who place our chaps right alongside of your fine military officers. The Hessian's wouldn't think twice to blow us out of the sky with impunity so don't lecture me on respect. Verstanden?
I respectfully suggest you review this issue a bit more objectively.
You don't want us helping Rheinland. Just say the word.

If you dont wish to be talked down on, Ausländer, then dont throw mud at my men. The same men that protect your own miners and sacrifice themselves für Rheinland.
How did the Hessian know? Perhaps he is psychic. Perhaps you told him that the RNC ship is approaching? Perhaps you are that Hessian sympathizer. You see how mud throwing goes both ways, ja?
Die RotFront has been flying the IMG shipline design for several years now. Why the IMG dont keep their ship designs a secret I wouldnt know, you have to ask them that question. Since the IMG have upgraded their ship designs from the previous ones, the Hessians have been seen flying them. If you think we havent seen this, you are badly mistaken. How they got ahold of the new design I wouldnt know since I dont drink my morning coffee with Hessians whilst discussing their ship schematics.
In conclusion there is no proof that the IMG are supplying the Hessians with their new ships. If however someone were to present such proof, they would be treated and dealt with like any other enemy of Rheinland und den Kanzler. With a bullet to their head.

Supreme Commander do you know who we are? We're Freelancers. We have a contract with your Rheinwehr. We're not miners. We don't have any miners. I wouldn't be caught dead in a bloody mining ship again after Leeds. We don't work for Daumann or Kruger. We work for the Rheinwehr. We're the closest things to Bounty Hunters and the nicest lot of Freelancers you'll find in Rheinland. Hell, I'll defend IMG, Junker, and independent ships that need help. That's what being a Freelancer is all about Supreme Commander.
As far as being a Hessian sympathizer, I won't even entertain that with a verbal tennis match.
I'm also not going to over step my boundries with this any longer. You know about it, that's all that matters, we'll continue to press on.
Adam Spire chose to take the mantle of Kruger Minerals boss. That's why you're talking to me, not him.

Bounty Hunters, Miners, Freelancers, Barbie dolls, whatever. They're all the same Ausländer. You work for money, and as a result the only boundaries are that of your paycheck. I am not a Freelancer, Miner, or something of the sort and I do not care what Freelancing is about. The only thing I care about is Rheinland and crushing anyone who oppose it.
Enemies however, are sometimes hard to ascertain, as are friends.
As I said, bring me proof of what you originally claimed. Empty words and speculations mean nothing.
