Well met and good flight to you all, fellow Junkers.
This is FynnMcScrap speaking.
We have managed to plan and build Tinkers Haven at last, and are currently at work to install extra facilities to open Trading access and fully open the Haven Memorial Clinic , offering our services to all Junkers alike.
However all this occurs at a dark time for Junkers as a whole.
Tensions mounting between factions in the Junker Community have been rising continuously, and we are more than worried.
So we stay neutral, as a trading cooperation and as part of Junker Community.
We will not grant acces to Tinkers Haven to all parties without being ensured that this neutrality is respected. We will offer every individual ship bearing Junker ID or a JM| or .:j:. IFF access if there is a short personal aggreement that the neutral status of T&T/ and J/T&T/ affiliates is accepted in any upcoming crisis.
Also we guarantee full and neutral service by any T&T/Ambulance vehicle if needed.
We bid both sides of the conflict to realise that Junkers have common problems and common enemys. I can only imagine the scorn Hogosha or Xeno Raiders will spit at us all if we start shooting at each others. Or continue to shoot at each others as the situation seems to be now.
T&T does not seek any competition or strife and is not prepared to be a scapegoat or a mediator between Junkers. We are a civil group and offer a more pacifist and very strictly codified view.
We hope that this will be acceptable to both Junker Congress and the Junker Marauders. But we can not - and will not - take sides in a conflict that can only harm Junkers as a whole.

As representative of Tinker&Transport and Foreman at Tinkers Haven.
We adhere to your neutrality in this scuffle. Currently, it seems as though it will blow over without much conflict.
The other day I myself assisted in supplying your base, to show a friendly sign of cooperation. I hope those robotics you received will come in handy.
One last thing though, I highly suggest you send a transmission to the Rogues about your base if you haven't done so already. Specifically, the Padua Liberty Rogues seem very tenacious in enforcing 'Moka's law' within Texas. We've had to defend our own base from them a couple of times. It's strange that they're so far out from their usual modus operandi, which is northern Liberty, but I guess Rogues will be Rogues.
If your base does come under attack from these Rogues, I highly suggest you look into getting assistance from the ALG Delta wing. They were highly effective at defending our base, I'm sure they will be highly effective at defending yours. I am not sure whether we will be able to assist in the defence of your installation however. We've already irritated the Padua Liberty Rogues quite a bit, we would not wish to irritate them further. We can help supply your base now and again however.
Hey there Finn, its Rick from The Train? Yeah, I hear ya loud and clear. Neutrality is the Junker way if ye ask me, all this fightin' stuff is a bit too rough for me. All I want is me, my Salvager, some scrap metal and maybe a cold one while tossing words between a few good pals late at night in a bar some were. On another note, you ever get out of that CSF? I remember see'n ye buzzing around in that little thing. Reminded me of my days scrapping in a CSV, ah those were the days. But now,he flings his hands up and waves them behind the camera.Look at all this stuff! Just look at it all!
A siren blares"Attention Captain, ship detonation detected cargo scans read it was full of electronic components"
He looks at the camera with a blank expressionI have to go.
I take that as a clear sign we can share mutual interests without shooting over a misunderstanding.
As far as I am concerned that should take us a long way, and in these things the Freelance Traders and Inverstors in the Board of Trustees follow my lead.
As soon as we ourselves have got to negotiate our official standing with the Rouges and Congress we will be happy to set open docking acces to all JM| as long as our code of conduct is respected. I cannot at the moment predict how things will develope and plan for the worst while hoping for the best.
Till then the Rhenopolous has been added to docking registry and I will add any other Marauder ship willing to accept our way of live and be our Guest. I will contact you if on the other side the Board decides to opt for a clearance with the Spire, but I doubt it at the moment. They are brave men, but quite pacifistic in their views.
If you are in need of Paramedic service we will gladly help you, as we all here at the Haven still remember Cold Bay.
The Ambulances are sturdy CSF adopted to their purpose and unarmed, please see them as the noncombatants they are. This is regardless of the reason of any catastrophe, be it through weapon fire or normal calamity. Anybody not shooting at the Paramedics will find them willing to help.
As far as any possible competition is concerned : I see no shortage of premium grade scrap arising, and even without somebody trying to drill any new wormholes the Officials of the Sirian Houses seem determined that it will stay that way. So I have set Scrap Price to standard level so as not to start another pissing contest. As we do not plan to engage in any other prime market I see no reason to skirmish.
You know how to reach me and I will mark your callsign as high priority in my ComNet Acces.
Well met !
Quite a commotion back there, but I seem to have missed most.
Well, my Wrecker Buggy has developed a funny energy quiver and doesnt see honest Junker Turrets as an agreeable component, so Im mostly still yust scraping along. And the Salvagers here at the Haven are surefire workhorses. None bought by us so far, but some newcomers came in fully equipped. Who am I to complain ?
If I want to feel alive, I get into a CSF. It still is the best little Bugger around !
The Ambulances we commission are built on the same chassis, without offensive weaponry but with some useful little gadgets on board turning them into mobile little operation rooms. Well, at least for a short while. They excell in first aid for larger groups and have everything to tweak triange as far as possible. I want no blood in the scrap.
Im not up to operating a Bar, with La Fort so close and all that but I suppose we will set up a cantine thats worth the name soon. And in the long run... perhaps a rest ´n recreation clinic somewhere nice, with pretty nurses and professional care ? Not only do we all sometimes need a break without all those noseintheair Vips snorting at us, it would probably cut sick leave in half. That is... after the guys payd the bill two or three times *laughs*
Well, a lot to do, sorry.
Send me a Transponder code and visite, I will show you the Haven.
Till then,
Ya know, it just ain't right. All this bad blood between junkers. Our neutrality and unity is what brought us this far, so I don't understand why some of yall, ... of us... are so willing to throw it aside.
I'd rather not talk about some of the... underhanded, backstabbing, unbecoming acts of conflict between the .:j:. and JM|, but I'd love to see an end to it all.
Let's not drag ourselves down, here. Say, How 'bout we knock back a few cold ones at the bar? There is a bar, right?
[End transmission]

If you Pay the rounds, Mr. Matthew , I will ferry all my Crewmen over to La Fort for that drink ! You just drew a cheer here you could probably hear to Beaumont - in Gallia .
Or do come by and visit us ! We dont build a great Bar here, but there is enough space in the central cantine.
Till then Im back to scrapping.
