The Hessian - Corsair war is brutal. It is one of the most brutal conflicts in Sirius, that's what the infocards, news and rumours say. The Hessians despise everything the Corsairs stand for. The Corsairs know that the only obstacle on their road to controlling all of Omega systems and to begin overrunning Cambridge are Hessians. The two factions absolutely hate each other. I'd say in this situation it really is appropriate RP to just open fire, because I am not going to discuss the details of my life with my worst enemy while he is no doubt already calling for backup.
I know where you are coming from Carlos, and the guy who rushed you with all those indies most likely didn't really think through what he was doing and I am going to tell him to ease it down next time, but what else can a Corsair do with a Hessian except shoot him? So far that's the RP between the two factions, unless you have some sort of development in mind? In which case I am listening, because I am up for pretty much anything as long as it makes sense in RP.

Elven, one of your Titans was supporting the Wilde and was on his way to become infested no doubt. We generally ignored you if there was something else happening or we were busy and you were alone. But then there was that small situation where you stalled for time before the Wilde arrived, then helped them ambush an RHA force. Now RHA RP for dealing with the Wilde is pretty much complete paranoia. You should know this if you read what happened with the RoS and the Outcast alliance. You helped the Wilde, therefore you are one of them, I told people to hunt you down. It's called RP consequences, I am sorry if you cannot understand that, but I really don't know what to say when my faction gets flamed for what is their RP. If you expect an essay to be written in chat before we attack you while you call in more Wilde to ambush us yet again, it's just not going to happen, it would mean that RHA would in fact be OORP at that point. It's not a OORP grudge or anything, even if you think that the RHA "hates" the Corsairs or something, which is not the case at all.
That's what I think on the subject of general Corsair vs Hessian RP.

That's not a problem, that Titan is Wild IRP - I'm not sure when we met, though...:D
I don't have problems with anything connected to pvp, you guys are good pvpers who don't need to gank.
This one has been at me for quite some time. The whole "Allied with SCRA" business. Today was a prime example of this:
We had gone out to clear some pirates from Omega-7. As it turned out, a few RHA and Hessian indies were there, so they decided to join us and what-not on our crusade against the other pirates. Well, a few Sails and Corsair indies were meandering about Omega-5. The Hessians, for some reason, went to go and attack them. All in good fun, aye? Well, we sent a fighter to support them on their engagement. It all went balls-deep and as ganks have it, more Corsairs log on. We're called in. We finally show up, kill a Corsair, then without a word, the Hessians, being all of them including the RHA, just move away.
I had no clue what was happening. Before I knew it, two Partisans kersploded and all I could see were Titans with the word Sails some where in their names. Maybe I'm a little mad about us being fail at PVP, but I'm a little irked at the lack of notice in this 'alliance'.
Perhaps we can clarify what happened?
"THE HULL HAS BEEN BREACHED AND THESCIENCEIS LEAKING OUT!"
I was on my SCRA char with you in O7 when RHA said they need help in O5 against Sails. 2 indy hessian and a RHA member was there. So only 1 from RHA. He disconnected later and we lost. Sails was better today, thats all.
[20:04:42] Tony(Lucas): espi
[20:04:54] Tony(Lucas): how many RHA was in omega 5 when fight started?
[20:05:28] martin 'vlko' vlk: umm
[20:05:38] martin 'vlko' vlk: one RHA and 2 indies ( 1 vhf 1 gb)
[20:33:54] Tony(Lucas): So Gb and indi hessian died and RHA disconnected?
[20:34:19] martin 'vlko' vlk: seems so, yeah
[20:34:23] martin 'vlko' vlk: didnt log back
[20:34:33] martin 'vlko' vlk: but we werent shooting him at that time (i think)

I can only commend [RHA]Klaus.Strausburg for the RP today. His interaction with my Bowex ship was exemplary and the later argument I took part in between himself and the RM officer, amusing.
If others will be following in his lead, I look forward to further Bowex/RHA encounters.
Oh, and before I forget, the thing about the Neo Vikings. They blew certain deals between certain people wide open to the public. Which isn't a good thing. It'd be nice if you could have a word with them and get them to use phrasing that's less incriminating for one party in particular.;)
I had a few encounters with the RHA these days, the RP is very nice but your faction has the bad habit to show up 75% of the time with a gank squad. A little fairplay would be nice. (talking of 4v2 and 5v2 fights)
' Wrote:Was hit by RHA ganksquad 4v2. Thanks for the "fair" fight.
A four versus two battle and you call that a "ganksquad".
I'm sorry do you live in a cave?
Suggested course of actions:
- Fight your way out of it.
- Try to reach for back-up.
- Oh my god, is it actually possible? Retreat.
What is not suggested:
- Come to forums to cry about something this trivial.
By the way if you assume you will always lose because the enemy has two more enemies on his side instead of one more. Then I suggest you improve your combat abilities before demanding your enemy to fight in your terms.
