Synopsis

The Independent Mining Guild (IMG) is a loose confederation of miners who work those fields that have thus far remained undeveloped by the larger mining companies. Conflict between IMG and BMM in Tau space was one of the primary causes of the war between Bretonia and Kusari.

History

Seeking to follow their profession freely, the Independent Miners Guild was founded by Rheinlandish laborers who felt systematically exploited by Kruger and Daumann. Being a small and poor group of workers, not capable of defending its mining rounds in the new, and for most parts unexplored, solar systems of the Omegas, the IMG got threatened and expelled by the security wings of Rhineland’s corporations. Forced to leave home, they settled in Bretonian space. Not accepted but tolerated, they managed to keep their independence and even grew constantly as disappointed, unemployed or even abused laborers of the Bretonian corporations joined the Miners Guild for decades and centuries. Only some old Rheinlandish slang words remembered of the guild's origin until the year of 702 A.S. Due to the economic crisis after the 80-Years-War, masses of unemployed workers form Rheinland joined the IMG.
