Volksfront to expand into Bretonia

[TheJarl]

You know. I am torn here. On the one hand I've always seen the Bundshuh as completely superfluous - they're just another pirate faction whereas their goals are not like that. Should have been usurped by the Unioners (their piraty side) and the Hessians (political/idealist side) long since.

On the other hand, Bretonia lacks a true agressive opposition to it's government as a whole. The Gaians simply oppose Planetform and most of the heavily polluting industries. The Mollies just want Dublin to themselves, and don't give a rats arse about the rest of Bretonia for the most. The Bundshuh could fill that gap. However, I -strongly- recommend you put them under another name and ID as soon as possible, but allow them full access to the Bundshuh arsenal, as the two parties in essence have the same goal: To overthrow a monarchy and establish a true democracy.

The recent war in the Omegas, and the subsequent start of conscription in Bretonia is a perfect triggerpoint for a revolt against the monarchy. Storyline wise this makes a LOT of sense.

The Bundschuh is a lot different from the Hessians and the Unioners. The Bundschuh in fact are nearly at war with the Unioners at the moment. The Bundschuh are much more ideological than the hessians and unioners, afterall it is actually an outlawed political party.

As for the rest. Yes, I agree.

edit: though not under different name. The Volksfront will be the armed forces of both parties. The name will stay, you can read on the PPB wiki page more about that.
