Hogosha have nothing to gain from complying with this, only ALOT to lose.
If I was in the BDS's shoes, I would be like "screw you, KNF/KSP, now you get shot by Itabashi too". When the KNF/KSP are unable to undock from New Tokyo because of that base, I think everyone would be perfectly happy to have things go back to how they were.
Not to mention, the player base for the KSP and KNF sucks, and I think Hogosha has more players than them.
Well, yeah, the government is demanding that they be given a base but is not offering to make any compensation for it.
Setting aside the fact that the government has made several accusations but not provided any form of proof...they're also demanding that one faction just give a core 4 base to another faction...without being paid for it.
If the government asked for an IFF change and done so reasonably politely that could have easily been accomplished. Now they just want the entire base handed over to them.
Sure, just pay the BDS for the base and the government can have it.
Otherwise who's next? Hey IMG, Falster is in a nice spot...but the Bret government has decided that it wants you to give it to the BPA. Compensation? No thanks, we want to keep our money and have the base too.
