History of the Looters -> Present
The day that the Gallic War Machine landed on Planet Leeds, the people took up any tools they could find to defend themselves from the onslaught that would be sure to engulf them. Bretonian Marines did their best but they were utterly unprepared for what the Gallic had in store for them, ‘Obstinate’ Cruisers in orbit with leeds targeted the military bases, wiping them off of the face of the planet.
The people of Leeds were picked up from spaceports which were defended heavily, escorted liners and Merchant Navy vessels took the people to Planet Sprague and Cambridge. The sudden demand of new homes for the people was a problem, only a certain amount of people could get homes. The Bretonian Government explained that they would get homes soon enough. This wasn’t going to happen, they lied and the money was put towards the hopeless war effort. The angered homeless people started talking to each other about their lives back on Leeds. They wanted that life back understandably.
Kyle Adams was the first to suggest stealing a few fighters and flying to Trafalgar station. He gathered around 14 people to help him and they ended up stealing a Percheron and a Clydesdale. They were able to fit in another 31 people, 45 in total. They all travelled hastily to Trafalgar to be out of the Authorities’ reach. The three key people in the forming group were Kyle Adams, Richard Miller and George Cole. They sat in the Trafalgar bar discussing their plan of action.
The three young men decided that they would use Trafalgar as their temporary base of operations and that they would pirate Bretonian Corporations to buy better ships and equipment to amass their small rebel army. After a few months of pirating and gathering followers and members, a nickname for the rebels was given. The Leeds Looters, however the three leaders didn’t agree on this as their official name. The Leeds Looters were re-named to The Workers of Leeds Revolutionary Army. The name Leeds Looters stuck, however the official name will always be used in formal situations.
Now the Leeds Looters have become recognised as the cause of increased piracy in New London and Cambridge. During the struggle two of the three initial leaders were captured by the Police Authority. The remaining leader, now the official leader is George Cole. The groups ambitions are to demand money from the Armed Forces and Police, pirate Bretonian Corporations and demand money from any Royal Navy pilots they come across. Talk of building their own station is a possibility for the future if more support from the people and from other unlawful factions occurs.

Zone of Influence
The Looters will be based in Bretonia, all of the Bretonian systems are in the Looter's ZoI. To add to that they are allowed into Leeds and Edinburgh. Finally they are allowed into the Omegas but only up to Omega 7. The only reason you will see a Looter outside of this ZoI is either because they are chasing an escaping 'victim' or they are buying a ship etc.
Tactics
The Looters adopt the guerilla style warfare. Rarely will you see amassed Looters plainly because of the small army they have to carry out their deeds. If a lawful does find a Looter pirating then they will fight till the end and hope they survive the explosion of their shuttle. As more supporters help the Looters then they will field more Looters in the battlefield.

Recruitment
To join the Looters you need to tune into this frequency and answer some questions before you are deemed an official Looter.
.So Just wondering why you have SCRA As Hostile? I mean they are friendly with the Mollys so it seems strange you want a revolution of some sort but are hostile to the Big Revolutionists in Sirius?
, So the revolution thingy. They are more revolutionists in Bretonia and don't agree with the views that the SCRA have, now you've pointed this out I'll likely change them to unfriendly just on the basis that they have different views and are cautious of them.
That's a Cashew moment right there, thanks for pointing it out
