[11.05.2012 21:57:45] IMG|Redstone: So, again, can we move now ?
[11.05.2012 21:57:48] RFP|Chemnitz: Bommel: And If I say stop, you stop.
[11.05.2012 21:57:48] IMG|Apollyon: Good day gentlemen... 
[11.05.2012 21:58:04] RNC-Gepard: seems he is dont care
[11.05.2012 21:58:25] IMG|Apollyon: Guildmaster Sanders, aboard the Apollyon - we heared about trouble in the system. Might I inquire what is wrong here?
[11.05.2012 21:58:30] RFP|Chemnitz: *Bommel notes one more IMH
[11.05.2012 21:58:47] IMG|Mercury: Andre: Okay Bommel
[11.05.2012 21:58:54] IMG|Terra: Kurt: What's this, stau?
[11.05.2012 21:58:54] IMG|Mercury: Andre: Deal with our Guild Master, we have to go now
[11.05.2012 21:58:57] RFP|Chemnitz: Bommel: You may.

* Assuming this response a permission to depart, the IMG transports enter the lane, or cruise if already past it. The lane is promtly disrupted by the Chemnitz and a cruise disruptor sent at the transport Redstone. Ships in range again hold in place. *

[11.05.2012 21:59:11] IMG|Redstone: We can move , I guess.
[11.05.2012 21:59:23] IMG|Redstone: We may move ? Thank you.
[11.05.2012 21:59:27] IMG|Mercury: Andre: Thank you sir
[11.05.2012 21:59:38] IMG|Redstone: Oh, what is this now ? CDs are hitting my ship.
[11.05.2012 21:59:39] IMG|Terra: Kurt: Anything wrong?
[11.05.2012 21:59:43] RFP|Chemnitz: Bommel: What I said, don't move!
[11.05.2012 21:59:50] IMG|Mercury: Andre: *sighs*
[11.05.2012 21:59:54] IMG|Apollyon: John: Attention, Federal Police and Military. I would request a clarification. All transports, hold in place please.
[11.05.2012 22:00:00] IMG|Mercury: Andre: You got a Guild Master now to speak with
[11.05.2012 22:00:10] IMG|Redstone: But, uh, you just answered ''you may'' after I asked the question ''can we go now''. 
[11.05.2012 22:00:49] RFP|Chemnitz: Bommel: Guildmaster: Where is the contract between ze IMG and ze Republic shipping station mainz?
[11.05.2012 22:01:20] IMG|Apollyon: John: That contract was brokered through our partner, ALG. We deliver raw materials, mostly copper, some robotics which republican then distributes throughout Rheinland as needed. We procure Industrial Materials needed for an expansion at Falster.
[11.05.2012 22:02:22] IMG|Apollyon: That aside, the trading station Mainz is, to my knowledge, a clearing house which is open to all shipping, including ourselves.
[11.05.2012 22:03:24] IMG|Terra: Kurt: Ehm, can I continue my flight?
[11.05.2012 22:03:44] IMG|Apollyon: Might I request why our convoy is being detained? If you are questioning our sincerety, feel free to join the convoy to it's destination, Falster.
[11.05.2012 22:03:45] RFP|Chemnitz: Bommel: It is, but zat amount is a bit incopatible. So again, where's your confirmation of Republic shipping?
[11.05.2012 22:04:16] IMG|Terra: Kurt: *mumbles* Shouldn't they be happy we bring in supplies...
[11.05.2012 22:04:18] IMG|Apollyon: I repeat. We have a standing contract brokered through our partner company in Rheinland, ALG.
[11.05.2012 22:04:56] RFP|Chemnitz: Bommel: So show me ze independent neural net contract about it.
[11.05.2012 22:05:19] Alexander.Boettiger: Oh my....
[11.05.2012 22:05:34] RNC-Gepard: tag offciren
[11.05.2012 22:05:35] Alexander.Boettiger: Is everythin' fine here?
[11.05.2012 22:05:38] Alexander.Boettiger: 'tag
[11.05.2012 22:05:42] IMG|Apollyon: Trade agreements aren't exactly the kind of thing you lug around with. Incidentally, do all companies get such a treatment?
[11.05.2012 22:05:58] IMG|Mercury: Andre: We were caught in criminal act and now we are trying to bribe our way out...
[11.05.2012 22:06:10] IMG|Apollyon: Can it Andre. Not helping.
[11.05.2012 22:06:28] Alexander.Boettiger: Err, did I... hear it right?
[11.05.2012 22:06:33] RFP|Chemnitz: Bommel: I didn't said you did something wrong.
[11.05.2012 22:06:51] IMG|Apollyon: Regardless. The agreements are all filed with the Bundestag. I'm sure you can look them up yourselves.
[11.05.2012 22:06:53] RFP|Chemnitz: Bommel: I only need papers about your cargo.
[11.05.2012 22:07:07] IMG|Apollyon: Federal trade database, file... hang on...
[11.05.2012 22:07:27] RFP|Chemnitz: Bommel: Zere is a database?!
[11.05.2012 22:07:32] IMG|Terra: Kurt: Tell me when I can continue. I'll be fixing my air conditioner till then.
[11.05.2012 22:07:39] IMG|Apollyon: ALG-HU-RP-#442IS. Redstone, hold in place.
[11.05.2012 22:07:57] Alexander.Boettiger: Oh, I see now. Well, I'm not needed here, then.
[11.05.2012 22:08:13] IMG|Apollyon: Yea, although with the lanes as choppy as is you'll probably have to interface with the database on New Berlin to look up the specifics.
[11.05.2012 22:08:35] IMG|Apollyon: Redstone, Hold in place.
[11.05.2012 22:09:19] IMG|Apollyon: Look, officer. I'm willing to work with you here, but our transport captains are getting nervous.
[11.05.2012 22:09:22] RFP|Chemnitz: Bommel: Well, I don't see why ze IMGs are allowed to export ze materials.
[11.05.2012 22:09:44] RFP|Chemnitz: Bommel: Why get zey?
[11.05.2012 22:09:46] IMG|Terra: Kurt: I did not see any law prohibiting us from doing so?
[11.05.2012 22:09:47] IMG|Apollyon: Officer, the cargo is not restricted within Rheinland space. We -do- look up these things.
[11.05.2012 22:09:56] IMG|Julia:Morrow: Greetings. Can I proceed to drop these ores to Mainz, Sir?
[11.05.2012 22:10:00] IMG|Apollyon: Neither is the destination: Falster.
[11.05.2012 22:10:25] IMG|Apollyon: The alternative is that we procure this stuff from Bretonia instead. It's about as far. Do you -really- want to harm your own economy?
[11.05.2012 22:10:34] RFP|Chemnitz: Schulz: You may Frau Morrow.
[11.05.2012 22:10:41] IMG|Julia:Morrow: Thank you, Sir. Proceeding
[11.05.2012 22:11:35] RFP|Chemnitz: Bommel: Captain of ze Apollyon: Aren't your station in bretonia space?!
[11.05.2012 22:11:59] RFP|Chemnitz: Bommel: So why do you feed it with Rheinland goods?!
[11.05.2012 22:12:16] IMG|Mercury: Andre: This does not make any sense. Can we go please?
[11.05.2012 22:12:20] IMG|Apollyon: Sanders: Convenience mostly. Your nation has the best price and the shortest delivery route.
[11.05.2012 22:12:44] IMG|Apollyon: Falster is at the border of Rheinland and Bretonian influencial spheres. The corridor to Rugen Station passes by there.
[11.05.2012 22:12:52] RFP|Chemnitz: Bommel: Ze best price due ze financial problems?
[11.05.2012 22:13:21] IMG|Apollyon: Sanders: Even before then. 'Though not by much. Does it matter? We deliver Rheinland goods and procure finished products
[11.05.2012 22:13:49] RFP|Chemnitz: Bommel: Ja, IT DOES MATTER.
[11.05.2012 22:14:00] IMG|Apollyon: Products which do not have a military significance. Why do you have such an issue with this? I don't understand.
[11.05.2012 22:14:13] IMG|Terra: Kurt: Hallo Julia!
[11.05.2012 22:14:22] IMG|Apollyon: Industrial componentry is not restricted. Mainz is not a restricted facility. I cannot see why you take issue to this.
[11.05.2012 22:14:28] IMG|Julia:Morrow: Hello boys and girls. *smiles* Are you still under arrest?
[11.05.2012 22:14:42] RFP|Chemnitz: Bommel: So please name some of ze products you delivered to Rheinland, IMG.
[11.05.2012 22:14:56] IMG|Apollyon: Sanders: Mainly refined copper, delivered directly to Mainz.
[11.05.2012 22:15:09] IMG|Apollyon: Sanders: We produce that in Omega 7.
[11.05.2012 22:15:29] RFP|Chemnitz: Bommel: DHC doesn't mine it in Omega-7, right?!
[11.05.2012 22:15:42] IMG|Terra: Kurt: Ja. Big load of Copper. For a good price as always.
[11.05.2012 22:15:51] IMG|Apollyon: Sanders: We don't have much contact with Daumann. Our mining areas are far from theirs.
[11.05.2012 22:15:55] IMG|Terra: Kurt: And Robotics from Aland.
[11.05.2012 22:15:56] IMG|Apollyon: Sanders: You'd have to ask them.
[11.05.2012 22:16:19] RFP|Chemnitz: Bommel: I had in the past. 
[11.05.2012 22:16:33] IMG|Terra: Kurt: I don't know what DHC mines in Omega-7. 
[11.05.2012 22:17:00] IMG|Apollyon: Sanders: To my knowledge, Daumann is primarily mining diamonds and aluminium.
[11.05.2012 22:17:02] IMG|Julia:Morrow: Officer, I mean no disrespect: Can I move the Flower thorugh? 
[11.05.2012 22:17:23] RFP|Chemnitz: Bommel: And the only thing RepEx told me about copper, was, IMGCP was in liberty with copper ore
[11.05.2012 22:17:37] IMG|Mercury: IMGCP?
[11.05.2012 22:17:37] IMG|Terra: Kurt: Hm...I only know about Kruger from the times I worked there, long ago.
[11.05.2012 22:17:58] IMG|Terra: Kurt: But, gut...
[11.05.2012 22:18:06] IMG|Mercury: What's IMGCP ?
[11.05.2012 22:18:08] IMG|Apollyon: Sanders: IMGCP? You mean that communist spinoff, the ICMG? I haven't heared from then in a long time.
[11.05.2012 22:18:30] IMG|Terra: Kurt: Never heard of them.
[11.05.2012 22:18:37] RFP|Chemnitz: Bommel: Yeah, I got a mispelling in ze mail to you.
[11.05.2012 22:18:41] IMG|Apollyon: Sanders: They were mostly Taubased. Tau 39 produces Copper as well, probably where they got that.
[11.05.2012 22:18:44] IMG|Terra: Kurt: Heard of the ICMG. But they disbanded I think.
[11.05.2012 22:19:18] IMG|Apollyon: Sanders: Regardless, our transport captains are getting a little antsy about hanging around in space here. Can we 
[11.05.2012 22:19:27] RFP|Chemnitz: It doesn't matter, if, or if zey are not operating in ze taus
[11.05.2012 22:19:29] IMG|Apollyon: settle this somewhere safer? Say, New Berlin orbit?
[11.05.2012 22:19:50] RFP|Chemnitz: Schulz: Would be the best.
[11.05.2012 22:19:53] IMG|Apollyon: Sanders: Look, if you have trouble with the ICMG, I suggest you take it up with them. 
[11.05.2012 22:20:06] IMG|Apollyon: I haven't heared from them in ages. Convoy: Move to New Berlin planet.
[11.05.2012 22:20:22] IMG|Julia:Morrow: Roger, Guildmaster. We are moving
[11.05.2012 22:20:26] IMG|Terra: Kurt: Oh, finally? Danke...

[11.05.2012 22:20:47] IMG|Redstone: We can go ? Thank you.

* The convoy moves to New Berlin - several transports moor while the situation is resolved. A few minutes later, the Police cruiser arrives as well *

[11.05.2012 22:25:56] RFP|Chemnitz: Bommel: So...
[11.05.2012 22:26:32] IMG|Julia:Morrow: One transport is still incoming. 
[11.05.2012 22:26:32] IMG|Apollyon: So. This should be cleared up soon. Some of our transports have moored to New Berlin while we sort this out.
[11.05.2012 22:27:03] IMG|Apollyon: Interface with the New Berlin archives. Pull up the file I mentioned. You'll find it contains a standing agreement for the delivery of raw materials to clearing houses at Mainz and Freiburg, and procurement of nonrestricted commodities produced in Rheinland.
[11.05.2012 22:27:27] RFP|Chemnitz: Bommel: It's interesting to see you, IMG, flying a military gunboat.
[11.05.2012 22:27:48] IMG|Apollyon: Sanders: I could say the same of a federal police cruiser...
[11.05.2012 22:28:29] IMG|Apollyon: Sanders: Still, it is good to see rumors about the Federal Police being under-funded are grossly exhaggerated.
[11.05.2012 22:29:05] RFP|Chemnitz: Becker: I expect it's more reasonable to fly a Rheinwehr cruiser than a gunboat.
[11.05.2012 22:30:08] The.Lover: oh
[11.05.2012 22:30:13] The.Lover: tag officer
[11.05.2012 22:30:32] IMG|Julia:Morrow: Ehm... since when are we treated with that kind of... I'd almost say... hostility?
[11.05.2012 22:30:55] IMG|Apollyon: Sanders: Back to the issue at hand however. You have held our convoy. I presume you suspect a crime is committed.
[11.05.2012 22:30:58] IMG|Lea.Evanz: whats going on why are we being stopped
[11.05.2012 22:31:20] IMG|Apollyon: I would like to know what exactly that is. The trade agreement is valid and standing until declared void by the Bundestag.
[11.05.2012 22:31:29] IMG|Apollyon: Or it's expiry in 850AS
[11.05.2012 22:31:50] RFP|Chemnitz: Bommel: I think no crime is issued, but paperwork is lost.
[11.05.2012 22:32:13] IMG|Apollyon: Then interface with the central database in New Berlin and correct your records.
[11.05.2012 22:32:58] RFP|Chemnitz: Bommel: Why can't you provide a contract?
[11.05.2012 22:33:16] IMG|Apollyon: Sanders: I've provided you the bloody file detailing it!
[11.05.2012 22:33:33] IMG|Lea.Evanz: well if no chrime is commited and your records are out of date, i suggest you go correct them
[11.05.2012 22:33:33] IMG|Apollyon: Sanders: In this day and time, do you think those contracts are still of paper and ink?!
[11.05.2012 22:33:47] IMG|Lea.Evanz: instead of causing problems between our houses
[11.05.2012 22:34:30] RFP|Chemnitz: Bommel: I zink zey are written down and zey are in underrstable rheinlandisch.
[11.05.2012 22:34:59] IMG|Apollyon: Sanders: Then I wager economic studies were not your favorite subject.
[11.05.2012 22:35:38] IMG|Apollyon: Sanders: Now. I've tried to be as courteous as I can be given the circumstances. But frankly, sir, this is a detainment without cause. I'm not one to enjoy making a big fuss, but these goods are expected at Falster, and these men and women deserve their drink and rest.
[11.05.2012 22:36:19] RFP|Chemnitz: Bommel: SIR?
[11.05.2012 22:36:45] IMG|Apollyon: Sanders: Aye. Men and women in rank are addressed as "sir" in naval ranks.
[11.05.2012 22:37:17] IMG|Apollyon: Although the customs between Bretonia and Rheinland might differ in that a bit. Not sure. Apologies if you took offense
[11.05.2012 22:37:41] RFP|Chemnitz: Schulz: Just a note Herr Sanders: Frau Bommel doesn't like to be named male,
[11.05.2012 22:38:01] IMG|Apollyon: Sanders: Duly noted. How does she like to be addressed?
[11.05.2012 22:38:20] RFP|Chemnitz: Schulz: Frau/Oberst
[11.05.2012 22:38:34] IMG|Apollyon: Sanders: Oberst Bommel, then.

[11.05.2012 22:39:20] IMG|Apollyon: Sanders: Try Mainz. If they still have any left. If not try Freiburg.

[11.05.2012 22:39:48] IMG|Julia:Morrow: Julia is getting annoyed: Officer, please. Can I move on? Is there anything that needs to be done by me to be allowed to go?

[11.05.2012 22:40:20] IMG|Apollyon: Sanders: Now, I'm afraid to have to agree with miss Morrow here. I do not see a crime being committed and the paperwork is duly filed in the central archive. Either charge us or clear us. The former will see a formal complaint sent to the Bundestag.
[11.05.2012 22:40:45] Eike.Museler: Hm. I am not a women.
[11.05.2012 22:41:06] IMG|Julia:Morrow: I am also transmitting my paper works and flight logs for this flight. You will see, they stand scrutiny as I do not do illegal activities. 
[11.05.2012 22:41:25] IMG|Apollyon: We've lost enough time in this as is. Might need to reconsider our routes into Rheinland if they take such damn delays more often.
[11.05.2012 22:41:55] RFP|Chemnitz: Bommel: Of course, I understand your copy, Herr Sanders.
[11.05.2012 22:42:18] IMG|Apollyon: Sanders: Then, are we cleared, or must I start dialing up the government chain on this matter?
[11.05.2012 22:43:09] RFP|Chemnitz: Bommel: Would be better to do it next time. For now you are clear.
[11.05.2012 22:43:32] IMG|Apollyon: Finally. Julia, let's go. I'll follow you in.
