[color=#ffff33]What?

Fellow Omicroners????

Since when did ANYTHING in the Omicrons, other than thumping on Outcasts in Alpha, become with the ZOI of the Coalition?

First of, I like the yellow you used for the 'What?', now to the more serious things.

Colonials, not the Coalition and for the ZOI;
Divine pretty much summed it up. The Colonials had two major operations down there, one being operation Cradle:

Operation "Cradle" - Omicron Lost expedition
> Protection of the Colonial survey unit planetside Moros
> Support of Order operations against hostile alien entities
> Intelligence gathering on Edge Nebula-based factions

And the other one being Scarecrow:

Operation "Scarecrow One" - Security assignment in Omega 7
> Protection of the local IMG assets from any and all direct, physical threats

Operation "Scarecrow Two" - Peacekeeping assignment in Omega 7
> Preventing Daumann/IMG hostilities
> Maintaining a stable borderline between IMG and Daumann territory
> Enforcing the Omega 7 Treaty

You're friendly with the Corsairs - who are hostile to the people that they are shooting at down here. Right now that post makes absolutely zero role-play sense at all.

The friendly with the Corsairs thing is not really what it was like since the Colonials had the No Fire thingy with the Outcasts, even if it was just for a short period of time, the relations arent that great like they were before. And yes, the Corsairs are hostile to the people they are shooting down there, thats how the whole hostility/warfare thing works mostly... I dont think that the BHG wouldnt shoot the Order, whom are hostile to them, right?

You boys have the Taus to play in, and some stuff down in the Omegas. Why - or better yet, how - can you really justify getting involved down here in a role-play perspective? The comment - we're disgusted by the Core, so we're going to send a task force down there .... have you noticed that the SCRA, who you're supposed to be unfriendly with, is allied with the Zoners down here? And the Order?

The Zoners are rather wealthy guys, the Colonials can gain a lot from being on friendly terms with them (Ressources, Money, Technology, Reliable Partners,...). And they may have a problem with the Hunters, killing innocents down there, just for territorial gains. Thats more then enough of a RP reason if you ask me. I could give you quite a few good examples of real life wars which were started for exactly those or even worse reasons. And why should we have a problem with the order? Just look at point two of operation Cradle. The same would apply for the SCRA, just because we wont be playing best friends we dont have to shoot them, nor do they have to shoot us, right?

Sorry, this whole post sounds like a blatant attempt to provide an excuse to PvP without any real role-play to back it up.

Look above for the roleplay reasons and I think this quote could be fitting here:

You have proven yourselves by your actions, and you have condemned yourselves by them.

I dont really see a problem in this step, the BHG went out to slaughter something, so why shouldnt they be slaughtered a bit in exchange?
