Hola.
Interesting day. Responded to a call because one of our Marauders was being threatened by some Exiles and IMG. Undocked from Cali and raced right over to the Marauder Pilgrim Liner in distress. After a slight awkward stand of, a fight began. The IMG Miner was blown up with a salvo of Torpedoes and Missiles. Shortly after, a Kusari Exile engaged us and that was swiftly taken care of. I had to bail right after because i couldn't shake of a Kusari Destroyer and our Pilgrim Liner had been blown up. Escape pods were tractored in. I raced to Tau 37 and docked on the Freeport there and i am now laying low for a little. I'll make my way back to Cali Base when everything has died down.

Bonjour, yadda yadda yadda.
Joe and I intercepted a Samura vessel hauling Kyushu Rice. After some hefty negotiations we managed to get him to drop his cargo. Joe dispatched and I found a friendly miner who'd fill me up if I kept him alive. The best kind of deal. Dropped the rice for a load of Niobium Ore which was dropped off at Denver.
Hola Compadres!, i took care of the business with that misterious individual, i took the Black Market munitions. As i was told, i ran silent and sin ser descubierto... I managed to arrive to seasons without any problem...
Now i will take something from the bar... the trip was long...
Hello fellow Junkers. I decided to help out our mysterious employer by acquiring the Light Arms that were requested. I encountered a problem when I was unable to dock with Detroit due to our less than stellar reputation with Algeria. I was able to get the pictured arms by using some of our "friends" on Rochester. These weapons are from Detroit I can tell you that much.
There wasn't any trouble getting to Seasons.
After this adventure I need a drink. We only need Side Arms to finish this job.
So... I undocked from Cali, in my Collector, and found an IMG Miner on his way to Kyushu with a load of Niobium ores, he was in a bit of a hurry so I got him to stop using the cruise disrupt, He wanted peace, and I offered him peace for some cash, and it happened, got my cash, and the miner went on his way, after that, didn't find anyone to continue my job on.. *sigh* But, I would say it was an interesting day...
Well for my first day with this outfit was a successful one. I was on-board the Mr.Clean as I head to Omicron Alpha. Loaded up the cargo full of Cardi and hauled tail to Texas. Landed on Houston and sold my cargo for a nice little sum(rounded up) of 17 million. Managed to bypass all law thanks to a Junker flying under the name Rusty.Nail. He gave me some good info on LNS whereabouts and I paid him well for the info. I love this job. I'll drink a cold one for you guys on Seasons.

I was running some Liberty Ale from Planet Houston to Carolina Outpost in Puerto Rico, when I notice a Freelancer hanging around in the system. I flagged him down and he immediately ran from me. He was quick to dock at Carolina, but then grew some cajonés and came back out.
Attached below are the ships communication logs from this encounter. I got 1 mill from this guy, (/////I already Jumped system when I took these\\\\\)

Well, today sure was interesting. Went flyin' about the Taus, eventually settling down in Tau-23 near the Java base, hopin' to catch a would-be trader. Unfortunately, I found some uh...weirder things than yer average smuggler.
Scanner was showin' em as Nomads, whatever they be. I've not seen anything like 'em before, but they wanted me money or me life, and I wasn't having that. JM|-Salvager came to help, and we happily finished them off.
Docked myself up after that as I wasn't too keen on seeing many more of those. They tore up my hull like nothin' I've ever seen and were more maneuverable than even them Liberators that the police love ta fly. Suggest any o' us that flies about the Taus keep an eye out, lest they be taken by surprise.
Gilbert Kapp, Captain of the Marauder Transport "Mr Clean", reporting in. Undocked at Cali base, in Tau-23, today and linked up a few fellow
Marauders:
We decided to check the Niobium and Beryllium fields to see if anyone was ripe for the pickin. The Berl' fields proved to be
fruitless, but Gear Golem found a miner in the Niobium fields.
When I arrived the exchange went down like this:
As you can see by the end of the log, some IMG capital ships were coming to rain on our parade so we decided to cut our encounter short.
So I formed up on Gear Golem and we headed through Kusari to Planet Dever, where I sold our ill-gotten booty for a nice sum and transferred
the money to Gear Golem, who then divided up our cuts.
An easy 20 mill cut for myself was received and I decided to relax on Denver by hitting the slopes.

I can say it's part to be good of a crew. Packing my things and saying farewell to Home for now, I then set out to the coordinates given to me in the Taus. The journey was peaceful, one of meditation and inner thoughts, some would say. Regardless, I made it safely to the Freeport, where I was contacted by Cash Ivankov. Ivankov briefly mentionned that he read over my files and saw my engineering and mechanical abilities, and asked me if I could help the Marauders with a certain project Hel.
Sending me the relevant files and glancing them over, I realized that this project literally was about playing Doctor Frankeinstein with the husks of two Hels. I don't know if I have the technical abilities to handle such an ambitious project, but I'll certainly give it a shot. At the very least, it's an exciting prospect and I am proud to be trusted with such information. I won't let you down.
Anyway, I was getting a shuteye when my netwatch went berserk. Apparently, a fellow Marauder needed my assistance in Tau-23. Moving to the scene on the double, I met the sorry sight of a transport being hammered by a Bounty Hunter, which I swiftly engaged with my Recycler, the Piece of Scrap. I was having a good effect on its shields, but I wouldn't have been able to take it down before it'd have shot down the Recycled Hardware if it weren't for Tentacle Grape's and an Outcast's assistance. I celebrated my first mission in good company of my new comrades, feeling like I belonged.
