When RM and LN were are war, I'm sure Hunters weren't allowed to hunt either of them, Even though they were on the other factions bounty board.
I would check with an admin about this.
Gallia wants revenge on all sirians ( the other colony ship people)
Even Bounty Hunters (Cause sirian orginated, from colony ships)
So Bounty Hunters dont give a crud about gallians.
sow the BH are not supose to hunt GRN or GRP ships than ???
and 1 more question: what abouth the mercs?? can they engage at will??
about the mercs im asking not only for the GRN but even for my sair ships coz the mercs engage me at will with no other player present for example to hire them!!!!!!

It depends on if GRN is considered to be lawful or unlawful. We need a ruling.

This is absolutely allowed. If the bounty board allows a freelancer to register, then freelancers can knock you around all day long.

Look here -- http://discoverygc.com/forums/index.php?showforum=55 -- if you are listed on one of those bounty boards (check the one for Bretonia), then anybody who meets the requirements can attack you for the purpose of claiming a bounty

The BH have a history of never interfering with inter-house wars, which is exactly what the GRN invasion is.
Mercenaries can be hired in game by a player, but more commonly a Mercenary will register for a Bounty Board on the forums, which then permits them to hunt targets for that Bounty Board at will. For example, the Rheinland lawful bounty board pays for Corsair kills, as does the Red Hessian bounty board, and the Bretonian lawful board too.
Edit: Ursus, GRN are House Lawfuls. There's no room for interpretation. By comparison, the Council are not House Lawfuls. They are a semi-lawful rebel military.
Just because Liberty has a bounty on RM ships, that does not make the RM unlawful.
Down-edit: 4.86 rumours... I don't trust those unless I wrote them, and I certainly didn't write those ones.
Regardless, I've no Bounty Hunter characters. It may be something you want to take up with BHG|, or something they might ask for the infocard team to change.

I'm sure Dashiell has said this before.
.86 rumours ingame state otherwise. There's a few rumours in Leeds and Newcastle from BHG NPCs talking about getting involved, I believe. Mostly they're worried that it's the first time the 'Guild has got involved in a House war, and how they'll probably be executed as enemy combatants if they're captured.

That's because they couldn't before. INRP it's bad business to shoot your employer; there were a few lawful mercs that have taken up Liberty bounties against Rheinland and have found themselves kicked off the Rheinland bounty board as a result. OORP the legacy houses are lawfuls; I am pretty sure that Gallia is treated as unlawful for this specific purpose (not an admin though)

Yep, we got few warnings as EDGE, back then, when Gallia invaded Taus in 4.85 and even tried to shoot us. So I'd still consider it's a "No", unless something significantly changed.

Xoria wrote them, so it is a case of someone who knows what they're doing.
I've got a Bunter, specifically a Bretonian one.
I refuse to get involved with the RM/LN war, because both are lawfull, and it'd be against guild RP, and 'cos they both pay me:D
But with the GRN, the amount of times they've gone, "ooh look, a sirian hunter - pewpewpew" is unreal, the GRN RP is just 'kill everyone' so, I will shoot them. I don't consider this OORP, however, baring this thread in mind, I'll tone it back to just killing them in self defence, and not actively hunting them until such time a clarification is made about the ruling.
