Gallic Junkers in Gallia

[TFinnegan]

The differences are subtle.
But the main reason that Gallic Junkers can't/don't pirate in Gallia is that they are comissioned by the Crown, therefore are semi-lawful.
While Sirian Junkers are semi-unlawful.


Sirian Junkers are barely tolerated smugglers, fences, and thugs.
In truth, they are the Mafia of Sirius.
They are expected to behave questionably, if not illegally, however much they try to hide their true income sources.
(Think of the Italian Mafia of NYC, they own (wait for it) trash hauling businesses, but that's a 'front', it's not what they DO.)

Gallic Junkers really are just garbage men, working under contract to the crown.
Sure they may move questionable goods for the crown, things the legit Gauls couldn't be caught with, but they are not 'La Cosa Nostra', the way Sirian Junkers are.
Their contract with the Crown of Gallia would be forfeit if they were openly acting illegally.

So, yeah, not the same thing at all, really.
Two sides of the same coin.

Snozzer's right too, if I find a Gallic Junker in Puerto Rico, Ima Shootin' mah lazers!
