I'm inclined to agree with the exchange the of specially modified Lane Hacker equipment surpluses with our allies, in particular: an exchange for services (i.e. extortion of designated miscreants), commodities (i.e. Cardamine) or allied weaponry. Parties that have already demonstrated their overall qualities or successful attempts to further Lane Hacker goals may be exempt.
Currently there is no demand for allied weaponry registered by the Lane Hacker armory specialist. That might soon change, as it also depends on the needs of our Lane Hacker Assassins.
Unused surpluses of allied weaponry: Outcast Primary and Secondary turrets, enough to outfit an entire battleship. And more. If you're interested in picking up the Outcast paingivers, contact us soon, before they're sold out.
There will be multiple opportunities to earn the privilege of an exclusive delivery of Lane Hacker Quality Checked, Space Certified equipment. You can contact us via this channel, or try a direct long-range transmission mid-flight. List of callsigns is available in our Archives (if you can get in).
Otherwise:
The Vespucci system patrols do not let in any ships without full & valid Lane Hacker access codes, following the HF lockdown order. The opportunity hereby presented is the best way to avoid the pile of mind-numbing fitness tests at Lane Hacker bases, which still won't guarantee your admittance into our guardspace. Your assistance in real Lane Hacker operations might be more than welcome, and beneficial for both parties.
In reply to "Technocracy"
Subject: request for 2 Broadsword bombers
The connection between improvement of intelligence gathering and bomber usage eludes me. In my experience, bombers are utilized as assault ships to blast large enemy capital ships out of the way, which is not something yo need to do on a typical intel gathering mission. Our Technicians have proven that it is more efficient to use agile interceptors, such as the newly designed Falchion.
The Falchion is freely available on the open Lane Hacker market, just visit our storage depot in the Ontario system. Ships sold outside of Vespucci do not need a request.
On the other hand, if you really require more processing power, we might discuss delivering you one of our battle-hardened gunships, which, given sufficient twin-fighter escort, can retreat from heated situations and provide just what you need for in-situ analysis of the data, and fending off enemy ships as you withdraw.
The exact motives for your request are unclear, and your very existence uncertain, however. Neural Net query for "Technocracy" does not yield any useful results. We can proceed once we're acquainted. There might even be room for future cooperation, in theory.
In reply to the ESS
Granted, as this is default for all members of the Outcast nation.
The Lane Hackers are interested in Cardamine shipments, and support allied Cardamine shipments to Liberty. Deliveries to our bases are also welcome. The ESS can freely dock at Mactan Base. However, you should not be coming withing standard sensor & local communications range of Freeport 4. We'd like to continue avoiding conflicts between the Outcasts and the IMG within Magellan for everyone's sake. You should also be able to freely dock and use the facilities of Cochrane Depot in Ontario (includes ship and equipment dealers). Please do not attempt to dock with Leiden Base in Galileo, it could be generally hazardous:

It is not open to visitors because the plumbing cannot stand the additional strain...
We're interested in technology exchange with our allies, and various deals of sorts. Please send us the propositions.
