Unione Corse
The Unione Corse is a highly organised quasilawful criminal syndicate within Gallia which focuses on smuggling and controlling the black market in Gallia. They generally do not attack targets inside Gallia. They are rumored to control the distribution of the Nox narcotic.
Pilot carrying this quasilawful ID is a member of the Unione Corse who:
- Can attack pirates and terrorists in self-defense, to protect an allied ship, or in defense of bases of the same affiliation within and outside their Zone of Influence.
- Can demand contraband, levy fines, and destroy ships if they refuse to comply with contraband demands, refuse to cooperate or are belonging to a house or organisation considered hostile by Gallia within their Zone of Influence.
- Can demand cargo and credits from lawful and unlawful ships, and attack them if they do not comply within their Zone of Influence, but outside of Gallic house space only.
- Can hunt pirates and terrorists within their Zone of Influence.
- Cannot ally with any lawfuls except the Gallic Royal Navy and Gallic Royal Police.
- Cannot use any transports with more than 3,600 cargo, except for the l'Ane and Vache.
Zone of Influence: Gallia, Gallic Borderworlds, Taus
Allowed ships: Fighters, Freighters, Transports, Gunboats
There are several points in this proposal here which I disagree with. I've already spoken with some about this over Skype, so I'll try to incorporate what they said. Also, should links be requested, I'll see what I can do.
- Can demand contraband, levy fines, and destroy ships if they refuse to comply with contraband demands, refuse to cooperate or are belonging to a house or organisation considered hostile by Gallia within their Zone of Influence.
The Unione Corse work covertly against the Gallic Government. Nothing that will be easily noticed/proven, but enough so that it counts. Mainly, this applies to the good relations with the CR, Maquis, and Brigands, but the recent neutrality with Liberty as well.
- Cannot ally with any lawfuls except the Gallic Royal Navy and Gallic Royal Police.
Sort of like the above point, however this mainly applies to IMG and CR. Also, as someone pointed out, a similar line caused the Hogosha to have activity troubles since it is an unnecessary line to have.
- Cannot use any transports with more than 3,600 cargo, except for the l'Ane and Vache.
I don't really mind the restriction from 4,300 to 3,600, but we should be able to continue using the Gallia "Lucullus" Liner as we have been for months and months now.
Zone of Influence: Gallia, Gallic Borderworlds, Taus
This one is okay, I suppose, but a little vague perhaps. I'd like for "Gallic Bretonia" to be included, in case some people can't make up their minds about Gallia occupied Bretonia. Edinburgh, Lewis, Orkney, Faroe(4.87?), and Leeds(4.87) if that isn't obvious.
Something which I'd love to see added, again relating to IMG and other friendly groups, would be an escort line. Nothing complex, just a "May escort friendly traders within their Zone of Influence" or some such.
Again, these are counter-suggestions to your proposal. Please keep in mind the roleplay and ships already in existence. I am also aware that, as Summer pointed out, this ID is applicable to indies as well.
If it is wished that I provide my own suggested ID, I can throw one together. For further reference material, here is a link to the old ID.
"You see what your knowledge tells you you're seeing. ... how, what you think the universe is, and how you react to that in everything you do, depends on what you know. And when that knowledge changes, for you, the universe changes. And that is as true for the whole of society as that is for the individual. We all are what we know, today. What we knew yesterday, was different; and so were we."
- James Burke, The Day the Universe Changed (1985)
