are BH's Allwoed too camb planets like New Berlin Etc? because me and 2 others jsut went there, and this BH had been there for like 45mins, and we jsut though he was in a GB untill i realised that he was a BC, which in my rheinland pirate cruiser, i couldnt handle it and so i died, also are traders and their escourts allowed too attack you on sight whilst we are ignoring them, and focusing fire on the BC? because its pretty stupid if they are, because at the time, none of us posed a threat too their trade. also can we get a unioner BC or get some rules made or something please? because all indies do nowadays is camp planets, with BC's or BS's and its getting ridiculous.
Thanks.

(Also none of us had bounties on our heads.)
Well, as far as I know they don't have any restrictions why they can't, unless the housing faction proposes a law regarding that fact. But you are right, there SHOULD be rules on multiple cap ship planet camping. Though I can understand if the player was afk, but if a rule like that was put into place, major Planets like New York, New London, New Tokyo and New Berlin should only be given those rules as for less populated Planets, like California shouldn't be much considered. I think I put my words in sense, then again i'm feeling confused by them so I hope you all get the gist of it.
First question: Why you went to near Planet New Berlin?
Second question: Why were you in New Berlin system at all?
No need to answer. They were made just to make you think of your motives and RP how you are using your Cruiser.
Now to your post. Nobody is allowed to attack on sight. You have to inform them that you are engaging and have some RP with them (insults, taunts etc.) This goes to all, even traders. But those traders were not really roleplaying it either. No sane Transport pilot would attack a pirate in cruiser.
RPing a pirate cap is even harder than RPing a house military cap. There's a good reason why you see so few Cruisers and up in pirate factions. And because of those reasons RHA or LWB or any other pirate faction very rarely bring out their big guns except when staging a major offense or base defense.
If you want to go through a pirate cruisers RP how-to in Rheinland I suggest you head to RHA message dump and read posts made by Varyag. He's flying a Hessian cruiser and he does good RP with it, so PM him and ask about lessons.
Also I believe Bounty Hunter cap ships are not allowed in Rhienland unless they're headed to the Omegas or something.
And the trader escorts are mostly freelancers and mercs hired to protect a transport. Apart from the RPing before engaging, there's nothing wrong with it really. But I'd suggest blowing up the transporter they were supposed to be protecting, to punish them for deviating from their payed task.

All Battleship class vessels are banned from Rhienland (apart from their own of course), and all cruisers have to be more than 10k's away from a Rhienland based planet. Thats pretty much what
Rhienland Law dictates. Personally, i don't understand why you would be hunting a bounty hunter in New Berlin, but im sure you had your reasons.
we werent hunting a BH though, me and 2 other thought it would be good too show who we were too the rheinlanders, and too state our presence, when i got near i ordered the attack on the RM vessel first, which straight after the BH BC jsut randomly started firing, one of the -=BHE=- no bounty's on our heads nothing, we had only just gotten guard reps, so like i said i wanted too show them we where there, also if a transport opens fire upon my cruiser am i allowed too engage him in self defense? because i just blanked him, and gathered that you werent?
Thanks.
