It may seem odd to reuse over two centuries old ship parts, but keep in mind that in space virtually nothing decays.

The Junkers have made off with many small parts, but the market for Rheinland capital ship components isn't that big. <p> | ||

<li> | <li>It seems like the Hogosha always manage to steal shipments from the storage area before they are officially signed over to Samura. This port is too small. If it had proper storage, we wouldn't need to expose our goods to theft. It's probably all part of Samura's grand plan.<p> | ||

Imperial Shipping is the premier shipping corporation in Rheinland, responsible for the vast majority of all domestic cargo transport within the Empire's borders. While also historically involved in many shipbuilding enterprises both civilian and military, in recent years Imperial's shipbuilding section has struggled to compete with foreign firms offering lower prices and larger volumes of product.
