Currently, unless in snubcrafts, outcast support will be denied. But at many occasions, you would need some cap support.
The BAF is at a HUGE disadvantage due to their bombers being slow and BIG. That goes for the privateers too. Mollys got the barghest, but that too aint quick enough to stay out of the fire from the nimble kusari ships.
Id say, open your boarders. allow outcasts to get a office at leeds or somewere close. The mollys are generous, and we do have a fortification in bretonia, but the fact that it takes us almost 20 minutes to get from our base to the nearest jumphole makes us extremly ineffective.
also note, privateer ID is separate to BAF ID, so would allow a different tech chart.
i can see BAF and outcasts helping each other out, but house militaries usually arent fond of using anyones but their own weapons, QCP on the other hand are "in exile" and would grab whatever they can get their hands on.
indeed they would. Contact me on skype. I will try get you into the right channels. I feel this discussion should be taken seriously and also to a different stage.
I also feel that both the BAF Fleet Admiral, QCP leader and Doc, and myself should talk about this. I am in SOB, so i can forward their opinion along with the benefits and reports of current cooperation between bretonian and outcast forces.
My skype ID is Prysin. Add me with a simple message stating your disco faction and rank.
HOGOSHA, and sairs are close. but KNF shoots them if they try to get further then honshu.
Dnicu, im afraid you are quite incorrect there, the Corsairs are generally close to the Kusari gov, mainly through our relations with Samura and the Hogosha, who have the majority of influence in Kusari. In fact the Corsairs are probably closer to the Kusari gov than the OC are to the Bretonian one, seeing as while the OC are neutral with a common enemy, the Corsairs are on good terms with the people that effectively control Kusari behind the scenes in a financial sense, through the artifact trade, which is almost legal in Kusari, unlike the Cardamine trade, which is not legal in Bretonia.
Now that i pointed that out... in regards to the topic, i think the fact that Bretonia and Liberty are about as close as allies can get, and Liberty despising the OC, openly using OC weapons would do far more harm to diplomatic relations than the small ammount of good it may do. So i think it would not be a good diplomatic move in regards to Bretonias relations with Liberty.
Also, id like to point out that Bretonia is in no way poor, it has the most powerful industry of all the Houses (except Gallia), and with by far the most raw materials of any house, Bretonia is rather well placed to survive in the long term. The problem is that they have to build their Armed Forces from scratch, as while the BAF was almost untouched by the Nomad War, they have not built upon the military since then, the Kusarians have, and now have vast numerical superiority.
Edit: But it the QCP are, as you say, 'in exile', then i guess it may not be too hard for them to get their hands on the weapons, especially if the Bret gov can sit back and denounce them for it, keeping diplomatic ties mostly unscathed i think.
Bretonians may have industry, industry which can be run with slavery and threats since they got their own raw materials they dont really need money, only patriotism.
Fact is, i dont think the liberty would "mind" that much. If they get weapons from the outcasts or the mollys for that sake, it would only show something else. That the outcasts got a kind side. A side with huge benefits to it.
Though we cannot have a BAF using cardamine to boost their skills, we can have a BAF Wing allowing the use of outcast weapons.
about the KNF situation
I have seen corsairs, even benitez, being chased out of kusari by KNF officials.
Yes, thats for the same reason a legitimate BAF wing could never use OC weapons, if they did, Liberty would find out and Bretonia would probably loose the close diplomatic bond they have, and if Bretonia lost their only strong allies, the war would be over. The QCP on the other hand, are not a 'legitimate' wing, and them using OC weapons could be condemned by the Bretonian gov, keeping relations with Liberty good. The legitimate houses cant be seen to be siding with or aiding pirates and criminals, so the KNF would be obliged to force Corsairs out of Kusari, as the BAF would never use OC weapons.
The truth is, that Krakens in hands of QCP would be (admit it or not) used as advantage against KNF and Corsairs in Bretonia.
Outcasts and Bretonians may have good ties with each other, but they are not allies. If we allow QCPs to use Krakens, we will see bunch of Templars with Krakens ganking the Kusari, and CR.
Only if...
They use some about 2 Krakens on each ship.
But that is all.
Carnage itself flying within void... Proud cardihead ever since 2008...
You all gonna eat cardi!
yes two corsairs two days ago pirating right outside of Honshu, and pirating Kishiro's convoy.
yes close allies there...
and again, read QCP and BAF are seperate entities we have our own ID and our own place on the tech chart for exactly that reason. We're disavowed from the Bretonian government.
