Junkers cannot ally with anyone other than Junkers themselves. They used to be able to ally with friendly/allied ships, (0.86/early 0.87) however the ID was changed.
Pilot carrying this ID is a member of the Junkers who:
Can attack any ship in self-defense, to protect another Junker ship, or in defense of a Junker base.
Can demand cargo and credits from ships outside of Rheinland, Liberty and Bretonian house space, and attack them if they do not comply.
Can actively hunt Xenos and Hogosha anywhere
Cannot use any transport with more than 4,300 cargo.
There ´s nothing there telling me that a Junker can not ally with somebody else ?
The only thing is that Junkers are not currently allied with anybody, so far I read the ID.

Depends what you mean by ally.
If you were in a situation where a ship of another ID was under attack, you would not be able to defend him because your ID doesn't let you.

Ah , engagement rules.
Jup, right there.
True, no formal allies except other junkers.
I wouldn't mind seeing it reverted. It was awkward when I noticed I couldn't save my friend.
Well, you can still defend your friends/allies with proper RP. Especially in kusari. If a bunch of samura/hogs atack a kishiro, you can rp to defend him.

This is what I was thinking about. I mean, in fact, it would be a final solution for Kishiro for making Junkers defend them from Hogosha outside Kusari Space (and it would be left to their discretion if they would still pirate Kishiro or help them for a fee).
However, help for Kishiro against Hogosha goes under "Can actively hunt Xenos and Hogosha anywhere" rule, in my opinion.
