Since the hogosha now have control of a base in orbit of new Tokyo, and my sole trader that can go to kurari is auto hostile to them (GMG) - can anyone tell me what non zoner faction can go to most houses and trade in them

Gateway can go everywhere but Gallia
DSE I think can go everywhere and even be neutral to Gallia, but with nodock and players will mostly kill you.
ALG. Downside is we're only allowed to import hazmat canisters into Liberty and export toxic waste & scrap metal. Also, those 3 commodities are the only commodities ALG is allowed to have in our cargo whilst flying in Liberty.
But still, we have access to Liberty. And Gallia. And the other houses. So yeah, ALG.

Pretty much all your posts are illogical. Nevertheless, we actually can transport ores. One being Dortmund Station (which is, if you didn't know this, an ALG base) in New Berlin buys beryllium ore used for the process of creating super alloys and such, and two being the fact that we're close allies with the IMG & Kruger. Surprise, both mining factions. So, yeah.

Let me tell you about the oddest alliance of Vanilla.
ALG, IMG and Gateway shipping.
The three factions cooperated, synergized which each others. They were actively helping each others with each of their respective trades. IMG prospected mining fields. This caused them to leave behind many carcasses and hulls of ships and mining materials. They'd contract ALG to clean behind them. Both of them would then sell their goods to Gateway shipping, who'd redistribute the minerals and the metals to the Houses.
Never has ALG been involved in any way in ore shipping. You're confusing this with Gateway's lore, and stepping on their toes. Not great. The three groups were 3 underdogs trying to make a name for themselves in a Sirius full of megacorps.
Yes, and Gateway was working closely with IMG to help stick a finger in the eye of BMM and Bowex, since they had tried to monopolize trade and mining in Bretonia.
The fact that ALG can operate in Gallia and not face some kind of sanctions/fees with Houses who are at war with Gallia seems a bit odd, but otherwise that doesn't bother me too much. But ALG isn't necessarily a shipping faction, are they? At least not with materials outside of their specialty (HazMats, Toxic Waste, etc.) To make them a pan-Sirius AND Gallia trading faction seems to be a bit beyond the scope of their RP, unless that has been stated as otherwise.
