The Corsair Empire has declared that the system 'Theta' has been placed under Martial Law.
This is as a result of the actions of a number of misguided renegade Zoners currently occupying Free Port 9.
Under Martial Law the Corsair Laws that would normally govern all law abiding Corsairs have been suspended, and any, and all shipping found within Theta may be liable to being stopped, searched and possibly destroyed at the discretion of any Corsair patrol.
Free Port 9 is to be blockaded until such time as the Zoners thereon come to their senses and make or are prepared to accept a reasonable offer of settlement.
We should like to make it clear to the Zoner population at large that we are not at war with Zoners, and that we consider the imposition of Martial Law to be a necessary step to insure the security of the people of our Empire.
We would recommend that true Zoners avoid Theta for the time being and we sincerely hope that this situation can be resolved promptly. In the meantime should you wish to provide supplies to the Empire you will be welcomed at our bases in the same manner that you have always been welcomed.

Corsair LawsCorsair Court Our forces combined, no-one shall stand before us. Our enemies shall be burnt and cast to the wind, our troops marching forward over their mangled corpses. True we stand alone, with wolves circling, but our isolation lends us our strength, for we are one and they are divided.
The days of Darkness are no longer, for we are the Corsairs and we are fear incarnate! Viva los Corsairs, the Empire shall rise!
The blood of the Hispania runs in our veins. The blood of our enemies shall wet our hands.
