Imo - since I see KNF patrols in Kepler, where there are NO Kusari-"belonging" bases, I think they might also show up in the sigmas from time to time. Not as in total control, or a turfwar with the Corsairs, but helping those Samura fatties on Kurile .
First Mjolnir never mentioned routine patrols to commit in Sigmas. In contrary. No patrols, but response to trader distress calls, since NPC's do not response to PC distress calls.
@ Templar: On BB Myoko in Shikoku you can take Missions, which lead you to Galileo and Keppler. Also you can see KNF NPC's patrolling the Shikoku JG in Galileo and Keppler.
I'm sure i have seen missions on Honshu and/or Akita leading into the Sigmas.
' Wrote:Why the hell were Corsairs attacking Honshu in the first place? They should be neutral or at least just unfriendly to Kusari house military/police, as Corsair benefit greatly from the Kusari/Bretonia war. This means they should avoid each other.
Now as you mentioned it...
TBH is neutral to KNF (and used to be allied)... I never knew why .... can you please tell me?
Also if TBH should stay neutral I don't know if they should be attacking the shipping in Sigma 13. I met them there a few times. True that once they were just hunting the BHG battleships.

Yeah, allied was wrong and that has been fixed. We (TBH) once assisted KNF in a fight against blood Dragons and it resulted in a small flame. We listened to the comments and fixed the RP.
Reasons to be neutral/unfriendly are:
- common enemies - Outcasts, Blood Dragons, Golden Chrysanthemums, Lane Hackers, Liberty Rogues, Xenos, Bretonian factions
- benefits from Bretonia/Kusari war - The main interest Corsairs is Bretonia. Their plan is "to weaken Bretonia fleet in a war with Kusari, then draw a large fleet into Dublin, then Edinburgh, and then in Tau systems" that's why you already see their presence in Omega 49.
So TBH and KNF have a mutual long-lasting neutrality agreement and we stay out of Kusari if possible. Corsairs can't simply fight everyone in Sirius. They have way to many enemies anyway. Hope that does answer your question.
However pirating traders in Sigma is something else. Corsairs need resources which they gain 2 ways. One is artifact trade and the second one is piracy, mainly in Omicrons, Omegas and Sigmas. We can't give that RP up, we need it.
Funny this. It reminds me a day, when called by traders in front of Kyushu, been pirated. At the end it was an Farmers Alliance vessel from AFA faction. So i blamed the traders for making whole Kusari crazy, because of a harmless Farmer, going his way. In private chat i told this farmer, not to overact, when collecting donations.
So for Corsairs and KNF a gentleman agreement would be helpful. One day Corsairs leave as soon as KNF shows up and next day KNF will be very "busy" to response a distress call.
