Gamma Leporis was quiet again.
In trading at Epsilon Eridani ROCKET TRADERS sold 3 Spice for 2 HTs each, diminishing returns, but also sold 8 Isotopes for 9 HTs apiece and were made Contractors.
COSTA NOSTRA COFFEE INC sold 7 Alloys for 10 HTs each and gained a Dealership position at Tau Ceti.
ROCKET TRADERS went to sell Isotopes at Mu Herculis for 9 HTs but TREKBOER were selling at 8, unloaded 16 units and gained a Contractor's position. COSTA NOSTRA COFFEE INC. sold Monopoles on Contracts.
At Sigma Draconis SOLAR SPICE & LIQUORS sold Spice on Contract and TREKBOER bought Alloys on Contract.
At Beta Hydri, ROCKET TRADERS sold 5 Spice on Contract, but only after SOLAR SPICE & LIQUORS sold 6 units for 3 HTs each.
TREKBOER were quiet this Quarter, being under new management.
ROCKET TRADERS took OP 15, sending Gemini on the exploration mission. Columbia sold its three light weapon pods, replacing them with cargo pods. They then bought five more Spice Factories at Sigma Draconis.
COSTA NOSTRA COFFEE INC. flew their Dagger Hull, now named Special Brew.
SOLAR SPICE & LIQUORS managed to evade the patrols and landed on planet at Gamma Leporis. Agent Willy proved vital and the Tempus was sold for top dollar. Pevans van Riijn decided to go for it, liquidating all his assets and, while the ships did not bring in their cost price, there was enough to put SSL well past the 2000 HT mark. He therefore has won the game.
