Talk to Bartender
- BARTENDER
- Did you hear? A delegation from the Confed Mining Guild swept by $BN last week.
- Because of attrition on the front, they're stepping up fighter production...
- ...which means more raw ore is being bought, which means it has to be refined...
- ...which means everyone at $BN is jumping to keep up with the demand.
- Seems it's gonna be a bad year for the Confed...and a hell of a year for us.
Talk to Bartender
- BARTENDER
- There's an ugly rumor making the rounds here at $BN.
- Heard it from a subcontractor for the Fed that they're thinking of militarizing our business.
- They might use the Wartime Emergency Act to take over all mining and refinery operations...
- ...which means we'd have to work twice as hard for four times less.
- I sure hope it ain't true.

- Heard this from a pirate who left $BN two days ago...
- You wouldn't believe the trouble Oxford has been having with data theft.
- These database jackers I know are looking to trawl the Oxford net.
- They been at it for months, but it's a tough crack.
- I bet it's worth it, though. Lot of valuable info at the Oxford Library...
Talk to Bartender
- BARTENDER
- We had another terrorist bombing at $BN today.
- I tell you, it's those damn Mandarins if it's anyone! This war started out to be good business...
- ...but if the bombings get much worse, the only profit'll be had by Russo Incorporated...
- ...maker of fine red ink everywhere!

- Talk about bizarre stories, this is incredible.
- A Kilrathi attack force was spotted on sensors...
- It was moving along the frontier in a search pattern.
- On Confed screens, one by one, each Kilrathi ship vanished...just vanished...
- ...all except one, which moved into Confed space. Strange, huh?
- Boy, I'm glad I'm here on $BN, safe and sound. Aren't you?
Talk to Bartender
- BARTENDER
- Had a look around $BN yet?
- Well, you wouldn't guess it from the way things look...
- ...but everyone on $BN is going to be rich in three years.
- We just signed a deal with the Merchants' Guild that'll do us right.
- Because of the quality of our ore, they've waived 75% of the standard Guild cut...
- ...in exchange for 10% of our gross. Sweet, eh?
- Bet there's no other refinery that can make THAT claim...
Talk to Bartender
- BARTENDER
- Bet you're glad to be on $BN. There's been more trouble from the front.
- I heard that Confederation Outpost 57 is gone.
- Now there's a crater on the asteroid where Outpost 57 used to be.
- Not a trace of residual radiation. No weapon we've ever heard of.
- Intel reports call it a new Kilrathi weapon. Do you buy that?

Talk to Bartender
- BARTENDER
- This retro threat's getting worse. I'll tell you how I know.
- It used to be, when a few retros showed up near $BN,
- privateers and the militia would show up inside of half an hour,
- and wipe out the retros almost immediately.
- Less than an hour from the first warning siren to the 'all clear.'
- But last week, there was an attack here.
- We didn't get the 'all clear' for two days. The base took some hits, too.
- Everyone was mighty scared. Let me tell you.
Talk to Bartender
- BARTENDER
- Everyone here on $BN is a little depressed.
- We had a great deal with the Merchants' Guild going, but it fell through.
- The Guild is tightening up. They don't have much faith in the stability of this sector.
- And as we all know, instability is bad for business.
- Oh, well. Maybe next year.
Talk to Bartender
- BARTENDER
- I heard a rumor the other day.
- Seems the Confeds are about to declare total war on the retros.
- If they do, they'll have to bring a lot of ships back from the front.
- That could be real good news for the Kilrathi.
- I don't think Gemini's ready to fight two enemies at once.
