K... deatils about each and every IMG place

Cardiff - cambridge

I'm surprised Bretonia didn't blow it up, easy to reach and oldest IMG base. Controls exactly NOTHING and is pretty much on Bretonia's mercy.

South Shields - Newcastle

Bit the same as above, but this one may defend itself. Bigger base, more patrols. However, the Outcast base Cape Wrath is close by. Newcastle is Largely controled by Bretonia, but most larger pirate organizations have their bases in the syetem, so where a trade lane doesn't go through, Bretonian authority ends.

Freeport 4, Magellan

It's a freeport, not meant to control anything. It's a weird situation there though. Despite the Outcasts' hatred towards IMG (dunno why), Rogues and Hackers frequent the base and NEVER are shot by the base's defences. (Unless the NPC is dumb enough to demand cargo). How the Outcasts resond to that? I have no idea, but apparently, not only on cardamine a man can live on. The system is wholely independent. Patrols of the respective houses are seen at their jumpgates and not an inch further. Rogues, Hackers and Outcasts ram the system freely.

the Hood - Dublin

The place got complicated when the Mollys joined forces with the Outcasts. Now they are seemingly the IMG's enemy while the Corsairs took their place as the Hood's best clients. Nevertheless, Mollys are often frequenting the bar (despite being blown to bits by Hood's guns after undocking). the Hood is a typical stationar battleship. you DON'T want it to turn red. So it pretty much controls the north-central quarter of the system. Bretonia controls the south-east and Molly the south-west. Corsairs ram around and kill everything they see and doesn't look like an IMG ship.

Freistadt - omega 7

Would be the same story as with the Mollys, but apparently not. the Hessians and Corsairs somehow stand eachother's and IMG's company when docking on this Rheinland borderworld freeport. It's peaceful, but for some time now, daumann and Kruger were seen attempting to take the system's minerals over. Rheinland's political stance towards IMG is also the warmest - they back IMG's peace solution for tau-31. A buffer zone between Kusari and Bretonia. Wether it's pargmatic (Because IMG would probably gladly supply Rheinalnd with minerals) or sentimental (A lot of IMG are former Daumann/Kruger employees) doesn't count for now. The place is peaceful in general.

Tau-31

The place is a mess. Kusari and Bretonia beat the crapp outta eachother over a chunk of ice and it's IMG getting beaten worst! Brets threaten to blow up IMG operations in bretonia if IMG doesn't stop supplying KNF from Holman. On the other hand, Kusari battleships place a battleship's gun salvo on the station and say "oops, hehe" afterwards. big meh! It's obvious, that they are intending to quietly push IMG out of the system and make the conquest easier for Samura or Kishiro. Bretonia wants the same for BMM. Adn the Outcasts there? As long as the houses keep slapping eachother, they can smuggle easily.

Java - tau 23

So far so good. NPCs are repelling every Outcast raiding party and it appears that bth IMG and maskers know their enemy's bases' locations. The situation is worst for the BMM gate construction site. it's cut off from Bretonia, no supplies coming in and the few security guards cannot possibly stand Outcast attacks too long. The base will be overrun most likely.

Falkland - Tau 37

The place is hidden, so the maskers don't step on it too hard. the few ships that see it, never come back. Does anyone control the system? NPC-wise it's Outcasts. player-wise, if we see anyone red in there, he's as good as dead. Why do Outcasts mind IMG's existence I'll never know.
