Private Sales #2

Across the cryptnet a message come to you. It reads "For your eyes only."

[[Start]]

[[ Dear Underground, y'all remember me as Hala. I served for a brief period as a part of your cells, and even as a rebel on a few occasions. I have made an offer to the GA for my vessels. The same as I now make to you. I built a custom survey vessel for you sometime back actually.

You may know me now as Hala of the Red Devils, but rest assured, our violent tendencies have their ways and means. We seek the same thing as you folks. Freedom and prosperity. Right to the meat and potatoes here's what I'm offering.

For a deep discount my shipyards (Which kindly are in your realm) can give you an influx of vessels targeted initially for your type of folk. We can provide speciality vessels as well. (Jorus you devil, I know you mod. You'd love these.)

No pressure though.

Enclosed is a dossier of my vessel designs. Please let us know if you'd be interested in sponsoring our company and adding these en masse to your hangars!. Cheers!

• Jast 1 Freighter : Fast Small Freighter. Good for running guns, smuggling, what have you. Built in smugglers hatches that are shielded from scans. Low weapons, but the speed makes up for it. This baby can turn easy and is super modifiable. A bit rickety though, keep her tuned up!
• Jast 2 Freighter Still Pretty fast, with a heavier load out on the armaments. Decent speed.This one is less modifiable, but can haul more cargo in her holds than the Jast 1. Holds are still lead shielded to prevent easy scanning. Sturdier, but still keep her tuned up!
• Jast 3 Freighter: It's bigger and heavier armed. She's got a few tricks to keep folks off her back, but she's super slow. With so much weapons cargo space was cut down, but it's extra room for mods was part of the cargo hold sacrifice. As usual still has the lead shielded holds, still need to do upkeep or some things might...... Explode?
• Jast Blackout: A specialized support ship. The Jast Blackout is super fast, has no arms, but can hack like a pro. If you drop one of these in system things become very finicky. She can shut down commo channels, scramble sensors, and hack systems. Be aware of limitations.

• Reclaimer 1 : A great Support ship! 500M worth of power to Salvage. This baby can refit and Rearm a vessel, build Ships, Shipyards, capture and disassemble, mine asteroids and do a myriad of stuff. If you got one in your fleet, you can keep your stuff sailing for a long time. Downside is that it will die like the rust box it is in combat. Keep it away from the front lines.

Hala-

I remember you and I know your work. Always good to see a new face in the freighter game. I confess I've been developing a bit of a crush on your Blackout frigate. That's a ship that could come in all kinds of handy in Wild Space. I don't have the purchasing power to take more than two off your hands, but I'll talk with those that do. I know the Coalition Council, off on the Foundation, has been looking for a good e-war boat for a while now.

Same goes for the Reclaimer. I'd like a couple, and yeah, better believe I'll be modding one. The Coalition could use a good salvage ship - junkers tend to pile up in Wild Space.

What're you working on next?

Jorus-

Give me a custom order for what ya need. I'll whip it up.

I was thinking of working either some corvettes or ships of the line in. They will be somewhat unique, as I prefer all my ships to fill a role, rather than be generalist dreadnaughts of doom. Thanks a bunch, we will begin sending some over as soon as possible.

- Ms [member="Hala Jast"] ,

To Jorus's order above please add two more blackout for a total of four, twenty Jast 1s to complement the Judges deputy core, five Reclaimers for salvage and repair operations.

All to be funded by the coalition at time of final sale. Please have all ships delivered to The Foundation to complete transaction.

-Gentlemen,

Too easy. They will be delivered with Haste. Can we assume this is the beginning of a partnership? For a retainer I can deliver all new designs as they come out. Got a few new cannons, Frigates and the like in the works.

Hala-

We've looked over your work, and seen some of your ships in action. I've got no problem with an ongoing arrangement like you're discussing: we'll get the first taste of your new boats.

As for custom work, I know for a fact that the Coalition's shopping around for a good solid flak escort, something that fits the same bill as the Naboo Handmaiden-class. It needs to shred missile waves and fighter swarms, keep a low profile, make things livable for big boats and convoys. That something you could make happen?

-Jorus

For sure, that is an option my friend.

I'll begin work right away.

Thanks a bunch, sending my newest design your way!
