House Police

[harrier]

All four houses are at war right now with at least one other house or major group - that's what militaries are for. Military players should not be concerning themselves with stopping smugglers or dealing with petty pirates, the military is there to fight other house militaries.

Police are the ones that should be dealing with smugglers, pirates, criminals, etc.

What about Navy stationed in the core systems? It is not the Navy's core task to stop smugglers, but you cannot tolerate pirates and smugglers in the core systems as an military officer!
Maybe the docking lights make a difference in RP, and you could say that Military can't 'hunt' for pirates, just chase them off, lay in their way... Police can follow:P
