According to the News on several stations in Gallia, the Corse is unlikely to leave Gallic space. They share the isolationist view of the Royals. With your group spreading out into the Sirian territory you directly interfere with the business and markets of the Brigands.
And why you just add Brigand ships to your roster as those would be yours?
There will soon exist some inRP regulations including the Courier/l'Ane, where I would ask you as faction to comply with those.
Answer to this remark: First of all, you intend to regulate a freighter and a transport? That are the only ones we are allowed to use? Oook...
There is a reason we have not put the Brigand ships in our allowed ones; We wont use them, not even the Gunboat. But we will be using the Transport and Freighter.
And yes, we are -not- as Unione Corse, we are Pro-Council, we agreed on their ideas of opening the Borders, heck if you read the Unione Corse information (it is in our texts) the Unione Corse assisted the Council in the war, according to this RP one of the reasons would be cause of the Bloody Rose (not entirely of course).
But as stated in my previous post, the Unione Corse have been interested in expanding their operations into Sirius, they are just more hesitant then others. The Bloody Rose, are not.
We want that change, cause we want to expand our influence into other Criminal groups in Sirius, gain allies and new products to put on the Gallic market (Black Market)
Then in the traditions of a 'mafia' I read in your proposal, so Iam asking myself why the gallic corporations are hostile right from the start? If you want to work like a 'mafia', keep connections to the corporate haulers and dont shoot at them in the first place. So setting them back to unfriendly would be reasonable.
Answer: Cause they in turn serve the crown, which we do not, we serve our own purposes, and we WONT fire first, that has been stated, we are not terrorists nor "pirates" we just want to disrupt their trade a little.
To illustrate my point:
You want to let Sirian pirate groups and every criminal operate under neutral flag in Gallia?
Well, the Brigands dont want that, its our market and we dont like to share it with outsiders. This could lead to troubles.
And Sirian Lawful Forces are for sure not welcome in Gallia. But aslong they dont interfere with the business of us all and fight the GRN, we dont care.
To the Sirian corporations operating in Gallia, several News read the the Corse is not interested in them and deal with them just out of chances where those enter the Zones of Interest of the Corse.
In short, NO, you dont pirat them in Languedoc for example.
Answer(s): No, did we type that? (literally?), no we did not, we do not want everyone cruising around Gallia thinking they are welcome, we do how ever want the Borders open, we want to be able to use their influences to increase our own, Gallia is not the best place to be with this opinion I agree, but the Council as the Bloody rose wants this.
We aren't Pirates, we aren't Brigands or Maquis, we are Maffia, we seek to increase profit and influence (don't think I can be more clearer then that.)
You control the black market? This was a joke right? The Corse controls merely 1/4 of the markets, the rest is under protection of the Brigands and you dont dare to interfere with our business.
Answer: It will be rewritten, that I can agree with, they dont, hence why they seek for outside products and influences.
You want to deal with Cardamine in Gallia, dont let the Brigands and as far as I heard also the UC catch you doing so, you wont like the result.
Cardamine is an addicting drug and more as that makes people dependent from the Outcast.
Ships hauling it are halted, cleared and send back to Sirius, the cargo is destroyed.
Answer(s): Hah! And why not? It is perfectly logical for the Unione Corse to get into the Cardamine smuggling business.. Why you ask? Well, money/profit/monopoly, gaining more power within the Black Market.
