Kishiro Mining Bonuses

[Zen_Mechanics]

First the bonuses. Samura's main mining ore was always Platinum ore. that's how it's been since I joined the faction in 4,86 back in 2012. rest of moning stuff were RP only. recently we swiched from rp to rl mining in H-3 and RH business. Samura side is okay and is not overbuffed as you say it. Kushiro on the other hand should have x3 or x4 for Helium-3 since they have their own field in S-19, good relations with GMG and access to their mining tech. They could also have x4 for Raw Hysrocarbons. But they could also have x2 for Platinum ore since they don't have their field for that ore and can only acquire it by stealing it from Samura field in Nagano.

Samura has always been the bigger company, asset wise. It's also been around longer. That's why it has more stations plus planets. As for reputation, Kishiro is less hostile wih Dragons and GC. They dont get shot by JM. On the other hand Samura can always have problems when passing S-13 because of GMG. As I said before Samura has inrp existed longer then Kishiro. It has had support of The Emperor for how ment centuries? It's obvious that it has moved further ahead. As for docking, Samura and Kishiro have each other on -0,3. So we can dock on each other bases. Even though there is a constant competition between us we have at some points to work together to better Kusari as a whole.

Also as you said both Samura and DSE can mine Platinum with the same bonus. As for the system owning, that's how it goes with big corporations. They are huge with lots of money and can also aford to own a system and protect it. The Chugoku and Tau-37 jh are close and Dragons JM and various independent pirates often visit Samura there.

Playing inrp smaller faction is never easy. You have millions of problems to get along with. I am in such a faction (not Samura) and I'm trying my best take care of it and move it forward. (I'm not the leader od said faction) I don't know if you are part of Kishiro or not but either way so far I haven't made a post on the forum why is my faction so deep in the problems and haven't qqed about it's state. I just try to make the best of it with the tools I have at hand.

I used to lead Kishiro| about a year ago, nowadays I don't even own a Kishiro ship, and except Zen_Mechanics that replied here that he's playing them I have no idea who is even in there.

Also, all of the above mentioned factions target Kishiro just as much as Samura (except GMG), it may have been true in the past but it's not true now.

Moreover re-read my posts, I never said Kishiro should have the same bonus as Samura for Platinum mining, I said they should have at the very least the same bonus for He-3 (again, given the fact that they produce the best gas mining equipment in Sirius, which they use themselves or sell exclusively to the GMG), and Raw Hydrocarbons.

P.S: It's not the 'oh smaller faction qq' it's the fact that this issue has been addressed over a year ago, was promised to be fixed, and behold I look into it - and instead it got a hell lot worse.

Kishiro is alive, Because we are more then a faction were friends and we ride together we trade together. Anyway, GMG must always have a better drop rate then us because they are more experienced in that but no doubt kishiro needs fixing. We'll see if AD is still in charge and if not i'll contact Echo.
