There are also rumors that the terraforming efforts are by and large useless too, since some Planetform rumors say that the gases leave the atmosphere rather rapidly after exceeding a given threshold. So it might not be done because it's not ever going to get done.
[8:32:45 PM] Dusty Lens: Oh no, let me get that. Hello? Oh it's my grandma. She says to be roleplay.
[12:49:19 AM] Elgatodiablo: You know its nice that you have all that proof and all, Bacon... but I just don't believe you.
I dunno, but I at least think that interruptions via gaians could be changed to interruptions via gallics occupying the system on the infocard, it wouldn't be that hard to acknowledge that something has happened in the system around it.

Though, it's neither here nor there for me.
Of course, but given PFI was originally founded through the Crown's money, we're not about to give a big 'eff you' to Bretonia until it become obviously profitable to do so.
It comes down to risk assessment; siding with Gallia is way too risky, who's to say the Liberty-Rheinland war won't fizzle out and allow Liberty to send direct military aid to Bretonia? If that happens and Gallia is defeated, we'll have nowhere to operate.
The company has a small personal grudge against the GRN, also, due to Perth Station being occupied (We are the 99%!) by them.
In addition; The CEO and my own character, the Director of Relations, as well as one of the Board open seats, are Bretonian. All the other board members are Libertonian. It would have to be VERY profitable for us to even consider siding with Gallia, they'd need to be paying us to forget our loyalties, too.:P
Back on the topic of Harris; It's very possible that Harris will never be properly colonised.

Don't make me laugh. At the moment theres no way 2 houses can bring down gallia. You need at least 3 and even then you have the problem with unlawfuls.
There's a rumor card somwehre that says something like Gallia tried to capture Harris but hadn't done enough recon, and the assault group blew up in the minefield (something close to that). It's a trapped piece on the board, so ignore it for now, they can come back and take it later.

I'm talking from an inRP perspective.
Sure, Gallia has steamrolled through the Taus, but noone in Sirius can currently say that Gallia will be great at a attrition warfare, too.
I will reiterate my point; It is not safely profitable to side with Gallia, and it will continue to stay as such until the war really takes a turn for the worse.
Such as the loss of the entire house of Bretonia.
