KTA - affiliation and ID

[Fluffyball]

Going with a Samura ID is just as good as going with a independent ID.
One offers larger ships and a nice lore to follow, the other offers freedom and choice.
Which ever you go for can work.
I would refrain from going against Samura though.

While you have the option of choosing your level of cooperation with Samura as well as any other faction, going against them would not make much sense.
It is important to remember that the only reason why there are farmers in Kusari is because Samura worked very hard to keep them in business while others like Kishiro preferred Synth to move in and take over.
Your machinery comes from Samura, as your seeds and fertaliser do as well.
Samura has economic control of both Kyushu and Tomoika.
To work actively against them would see your business suffer greatly.

InRP they were already worried about upcoming Civil War, which is possible. The corporate civil war is already on the move. The sudden change, I mean diplomatic shift towards the Samura is justified by Toori Takeda (whose dream was to prevent Kusari from further hostility inside) being deceased in accident (?) on his flagship in Sigma 17. New leader, Katsu(yori) Takeda is way more kin of Samura, because of his nature. He is also said to be more educated that his father (economics and stuff), so he just made a cold mathematical decision to seek help in Samura ranks (being something akin the "mercenaries" than full members of keiretsu) rather than being idependent.

Katsu however regained some attitude from his father's plans, because, (unlike ooRP Samura ID states) KTA is not recommended to pirate against GMG or Kishiro outside Kusari.
