its an img base, not a zoner base. take it up with img in-rp and see if they care enough about zoners to take it up with the gallics (and then see if devs want to implement it).
no matter how you put it, zoner id and the lack of proper zoner lore (and how it is reflected in a most generous nonsense ship line) which allows for all sorts of weird diplomacy and apparently the right to be treated as an individual (as opposed to any other faction ID in the game) makes it the single most unbalanced thing in the mod.
i dont mind that zoners have a lot of choices and options open to them, the problem is that it infringes on other factions id's and rp making them useless by comparison. thats a shame.
and the rp background for the situation is that you are all scum and you need to suffer for past deeds, just like most other sirians.
in fact i can see it makes some sense for gallia to align itself with other large entities, such as proper houses, either by having them as allies or vassals; but loose fractions like zoners make no sense in my view. they are a liability. there's no accountability and when it comes down to it, in-rp a tiny faction like zoners wouldnt have anything of value to offer mighty gallia. if i was king charles, zoners would be high on my list of things i really dont care about. i would see them just like any other sirian scum, perhaps a bit worse because of their conniving ways.
