The Lane Hackers, Faction Proposal

[Xoria]

I can't actually change the diplomatic roster at the moment, but here is what I am thinking about doing when I get home.

RHA - If you were a Liberty unlawful faction, you would receive Allied status. Since you are in Rheinland, we don't know much about you except for hearsay. We won't hardly ever meet, but if we do, then I expect the Outcast alliances we share to keep things polite and profitable. It stays neutral for now. Once a diplomatic channel has been opened by The Lane Hackers (whenever Moriarty's account validates) RHA can throw some RP our way BOTH on the forum AND in game that could move RHA into the friendly category. (Meaning, you will have to do something for us in game...we're pretty poor right now, certain equipment upgrades would be appreciated, like heavy CMs, enh. thrusters, adv cargo scanners, mark 8 armors.) It will be up to you.

Black Squadron - Local politics trumps global concerns. The Order is dedicated to the overthrow of the Liberty gov't, so the similarity of goals with LH trumps our dislike of who they are friends with. If they weren't so friendly with the Corsairs, LH would desire a Mutual Protection Pact. Our similar goals move BS| up the chart, their lousy choice of friends in the Border Worlds prevents it from becoming stronger.

Hogosha, Junkers - If we have to choose between them, there is no question that we side with the Junkers. Rochester and Beaumont are far too important to us strategically to do otherwise. The business the Hogosha do at Leidan moves them up the ladder, but their alliance with Corsairs and outright hostility to Outcasts and Junkers moves them back down. Hogosha and Black Dragon stance will be changed to neutral.

UKMG - With all of the factions to go through, it's a wonder that this was the only big mistake I made with our chart. I'll fix it later, UKMG will be neutral.

I will also move =CR= to neutral and RepEx to Unfriendly, since I think that makes a better fit for the descriptions that I have given for what each diplomatic stance means.

I've addressed the Phantoms and [IND] already. They are welcome to intrude into our diplomatic channel later if they have major concerns to address.

Any other diplomatic concerns? I want to get this settled by tonight.
