The New Scavangers (TRADING OPEN)

Eric receives a transmission from....the capital planet of the Zzakazz Republic.
The voice sounds metallic and echoey.
Doctor: Hello, I am the Doctor, you may or may not have heard of me. I am here to warn you. Venture into that territory once more, and you will face either Annihilation by the Corruption or extermination by an E-squad. I hope you understand.
The transmission ends and the connection is cut.

What territory? Oh, and, who the hell do you think you are mr doctor. We can trade with however we like, whether given consent or not!
/transmission end/

Eric: Zzakazz? Never heard of them before...
Xylan: They were trade partners in the days of the old Scavangers. Since Cosmolord, we haven’t heard that much from them.
Eric: Hmn...

jbox1 (I do not know, I think something stinks here, I do not understand why to activate the weapons, and not let the Traders call the others, I think this is .......... a theft !)

Doctor: Oh, don't be so sure. At this very moment I notifying my comrades that any ship that enters is kill-on-sight. I wouldn't go there if I were you.

jbox1 The dreadnought open communications, and a human starts talking. "Sorry about that misunderstanding, but we had to see for ourselves whether or not your faction was prone to rash action. Now that you've proved you aren't we'd like to offer you the fully developed blueprints for our AI battleship. (uses SWCD and Drones) We'd also like to buy 5,000,000,000 credits worth of metals.

Erm, we don’t have 5,000,000,000 credits worth of metals. In fact, we have already sold all our metals. We are busy mining new metals. Why do you need so many metals?

Look, Buddy, I thought your whole thing was that you gave the goods in exchange for money, and DIDN'T ASK QUESTIONS

LeftHandofGod Well, you haven’t read the T&Cs of trade.

ahem

Unstocked items cannot be sold due to the nature of the universe not giving something for nothing.

(P.S. In the “box” format, gifting, or very high pays, are considered highly suspicious, and will lower democratic status)

LeftHandofGod

................................................
Fine. We're looking for metals to support a major military shipbuilding initiative. We're at war, after all, and most of our ships ain't cheap or light on materials.

jbox1

LeftHandofGod We can still sell stuff! Just not that much of it...

LeftHandofGod

jbox1
What can you sell?

jbox1

LeftHandofGod Food, parts, equipment, (some) ores
