Thats what lore states but you know how people look at Lore on this server. Besides, people don't want to accept that they are dependant on their "arch-enemies" to get around. Rheinland can't live without H-Fuel. Thats the reason of the 80 year war. Kruger moved into the sigmas for Hfuel, knowing the GMG already claimed the fields and thus causing KRIEG.
The more recent history for H-fuel and rheinland was that it was dumped at Mainz before being shipped throughout Rheinland by Republican. Read the infocard, its vanilla and makes sense
There used to be pictures here
once known as Richard Farbridge, OBE and Ronaldo Benitez
Trust me Slavik, I am well aware of Rheinland's need for H-Fuel. all too painfully aware. I'm in GMG as a miner and a Rhienland Faction so I can see both sides. Rheinland doesn't really see GMG as an 'Arch-Enemy' anymore so much as a gouging corporation like Liberty's own corporates, there may be historical resentment from the old war but mostly that's died down since Vanilla in the face of bigger problems.

^ That
Actually, none of the existing engine infocards were "written" by me, since I'm not much of an imaginative writer myself. I just gathered ideas for possible names and roleplay snippets from a few skype chats, then put them together and tossed them in. As it happens, there were more than a couple of people who said "MOX" and "Rheinland" in the same sentence. You should already know Pavel, since you were in one of the abovementioned chats, and even suggested a thing or two yourself.
That said, as I already told you when you PMed me about it on Skype, if engines running on MOX doesn't make sense then provide me with something that does and I'll redo the Rheinland engine infocards. So yes, Rheinland engines are "STILL" running on MOX cause not a single person has offered a single alternative for it. That said, calling every engine "H-Fuel based" kinda takes the fun out of the whole thing, so coming up with something more creative and original is encouraged.
P.S: Luis pretty much nailed it.
But this is roleplay server, and changing lore in that engine matter is breaking one of the fundamental vanilla basics how Disco universum works... When it comes to lore, there's no place for "creativity", unless we openly admit this server is "we change the lore on whim". There still are people though who care about storyline, universum basics etc.
And I indeed argued against it with you in said chat showing examples of vanilla rumors and trying to explain why is it wrong, and indeed didn't bother further with it after I got linked to wikipedia MOX page with being told "it says it's fuel, so it's k".
If you aren't an author of that infocard, then forgive me. Seeing Max confirming in his post you were, I got confused. I'd expect him to know who's an author, I thought you developers work with each other, don't you?..
