The request for the blueprints was simply to ease any production or trade requirements on your side. Perhaps if my men pick up a limited amount? Say 7 sets to arm our vessels?
This reduction in request should make up for the, lets say, lacking in offered credits? Furthmore, after a breif consultation with my brother, Alan Write, the mind behind our research department, we are willing to give up an ongoing project to you...
Several months ago the Renegades came across a ship of the most unusual nature, a remnant of a once powerful race. All systems but the life support were down, and the entire crew was either dead or in Cryostasis. These few living members were transported to our Research Vessel, and the strange vessel disposed of. Alan found that these pilots possessed super human features, and their suits were outfitted with technology far beyond what we have availble to us today... Further investigations are proving difficult for him, but one man, and so he has offered up all paperwork as well as the 10 pilots who are still held in Cryostasis to you...
