I am contacting you in regards to our need for Nomad Remains, Battleship remains specifically. Its no secret between us what it is we at OSI want is for, but our supply has run out, and so I'm asking if its possible to acquire some more from yourselves.
If you could let me know as to the amount you can spare and to how much it will cost, then we can work out logistics after wards.
Of course as always "mom's the word" on this, no one outside of our 2 organisations will know of the request.
Herr Voncloud, actually, I did not expect you to send ein message to us, but rather
Herr Stow. Especially after what happened in Omega-49.
I hope he is allright, it has been some time since OSI and
Taskforce One Four One talked with each other.
So, you are really asking for nomad remains. Especially remains that...with luck...
can be obtained by killing or rather surving the encounter with the oldest of all nomads?
Perhaps I should remind you about our nomad material directive:
Quote:
Nomad materials directive
All ships, which do not fly with correct Zoner or Order ID signals and are caught hauling nomad remains of any kind, will have their cargo confiscated.
Ships signaling the correct Zoner ID are allowed to transport small nomad remains to research, but not more then 10 units.
Transporting nomad remains of gunboat or even battleship size is off-limits to everyone outside the Order and will be confiscated if caught smuggling.
If said bigger remains are needed, the Order High Command has to be contacted first for approval.
Using weapons of nomad origin is off-limits to everyone outside the ranks of the Order. Should we find such a ship, the weapons will be confiscated on spot.
Any ship which is caught violating these regulations and disobeys our commands will be destroyed without mercy!
So many groups and individuals tried to get everything out of nomad remains,
even zoners: Obsidian Zoetic...the Zoner Alliance.
I appreciate that you contacted us first instead of trying to get them yourselves,
though I am right now in ein stupid situation.
Those regulations have been pressed hard by me to make sure that
nomad material does not get into the wrong hands. I know OSI quite gut enough
but what about your customers? I am not so sure about this.
And although I still know how to make shady deals due to mein former life as
smuggler, do not forget that I am now part of the Order.
And I take mein job serious.
So, what can you offer to the Order in our fight against the nomads, Herr Voncloud?
You raise very good points, however the nomad remains are for OSI use only, the materials themselves are not what we want to sell nor do i ever have the intention of doing so. No, the materials are for producing certain advanced equipment.
What we can offer you in trade is this.
Greatly Subsidised Prices on said advanced equipment
A secure and constant supply line free of charge to Akabat and Order installations.
Both of which is our contribution to your ongoing efforts against the nomads.
In regards to the supply line if you let us know specifically what it is Akabat would need, Medical supplies, Marines, so on. Let me know.
so, it took us some time, but after we had some rather heavy...discussion within our
ranks we approved and gathered seven samples of those nomad remains for you.
In return, One Four One would like OSI to fulfill the following request for us:
Construction of a cloak device MK 2
Due to our efforts to gather the remains, one of our cruisers took some damage,
and during the repairs we considered it for an upgrade.
Furthermore, we would like OSI to supply the Order with the following goods
to Akabat.
2.000 units of lasers
3.000 units of Energy Field equipment
2.500 units of ship hull panels
1.000 units of Solar panels
3.000 units of Boron
500 units of Vodka
500 units of Whiskey
Right now, the Order is in need of supplies for Akabat's infrastructure, thus these
rather unusual request. And before you ask: The alcohol is just to raise our
agents' morale a bit. And Akabat does not really offer many possibilites for
at least some sort of recreation.
Please, let us know if you are can fullfill that request. If necessary, we can talk
about any concerns that should arise from your point.
Moreover, if necessary, One Four One can assist in escort and transporting,
though the latter one at a limited number though.
Oh, and before I forget, Admiral Golanski wants me to remind you about a certain
other project. I think you know what I mean.
