- I can see here how some Hogosha would have grievance against Samura over Artifacts - but is the motivation for this group ideological, or more mercenary?
- One thing I would suggest is not to go straight to hostility with Samura, but rather decrease relations by degree.
- Maybe there is concern with Samura moving in on the Artifact trade and turning unwelcome attention to it. This could actually be a form of catharsis for a Hogosha group, given that their enemies in the GMG went through something similar.
A group such as this could stand in special contrast to the AFA and Dragons/GC- who are perhaps more ideologically motivated. There isnt really a mercenary faction in Kusari - EVERYONE is a patriot/ideologue.
- There is also a possibility that if this group develops a neutral attitude to the GMG (and it is reciprocated), then GMG space could be a region where both Junker and Hogosha can properly fight over 'turf'. Same with Gallia, and even other Houses. Reduced privileges in Kusari, in exchange for larger ZOI and more encounters with Junkers outside Kusari space?
