Well, i think "hired guns" might be a bit of an issue...or not? My point stands - if the second biggest mafia and a company that can face off at a house hate each otehr to the blood...would they hire the same "guns" and support them? how can there not be a conflict of interests, to me this and many others is simply turning a blind eye on things - inRply both these factions couldn't care less about a inRPly small merc faction that shouldn't be worth hiring over risking true and bigger allies....
Same for the Junkers - sure anyone can see the oorp need of places for unlawfuls to dock, same for the Zoners - but they can, at least in my opinion( which might be totally wrong ) keep their neutrality only because the players want to have it that way- and in the hoggie-sair-junker connection it would be actually ery possible that either the hoggies and the junkers try to charm the sairs to give them a monopoly on the artifact or go the other way round and and blackmail them into choosing one over the other, so one side can get the complete market....now that would make up an ugly situation ....
