' Wrote:Government doesn't dislike, Bowex, the government supplier dislikes. There's an anti Gateway lobby in the military. I'm sure there's a pro gateway lobby somewhere else.
Fine. I see now where you said that before; I read the sentence wrong.
' Wrote:Police, in my opinion, represents the civilian government..the planets aren't populated by police, they're subject to police jurisdiction.
I'm afraid I don't see your point here. I mentioned BPA because BowEx is supposed to be their supplier as well. Irregardless, there's no differentiation between "civilian" government and "military" government in Bretonia, so I don't understand the implied distinction. BAF handles the security of Bretonian borders and the projection of power outside of Bretonia, esp vis-a-vis Kusari and pirate systems; BPA handles security within Bretonia proper, calling on BAF as necessary. Could you clarify, and especially the second part - I don't recall anything being said about police populating planets...:unsure:
Btw, none of this should cause a problem for anyone appropriate participating in this event. I just wanted to clarify HGL's position.
