The rumors quoted above clearly state that the two companies hire third-party pilots to carry out the attacks. They'd never openly attack each other, as the government would likely cut off any financial backing they may have. Sure, both companies know what the other is up to, but they still need to keep the appearance of being friendly in the public's eye.
Yes media and good fame is important but when no eyewithnes we cut each other's throat. Need to decide if someone can come to our fields and steal materials, can we or cant we defend our interest. Sure rumors said we hire and send them against each others. Sure I will do the same if I want casaulities of Krueger in the northen part of the system. But this happened in the centre of the Daumann field. Thats good RP and fun if a corporation send a party to his competitor's field and steal as much materials as they can. I plan and make this RP too against IMG interests. But then they are targets, and you must accept it. If you steal and someone catch you, you get your penalty. Or krueger cant come there, because there are clear who own the fields and then Boss made wrong how he came there. Or who own the things dont mean nothing - but then the RP will be low.
