[Official Event] Battle event: Raiding Leeds (May 9th)

[jammi]

May I ask why Council ended up in the "not invited" category while Exiles, and a semi-generic faction such as BHG could make it into the "invited" category? I believe Council is on par with Exiles regarding the relevant aspects and beats BHG at them:

1. Allied with Bretonia as per lore (BHG is technically employed by all houses, lawful entites, so nothing special here)
   
2. At war with Gallia: Council is the most ancient enemy of GRN (afaik BHG can't do crap against lawfuls, not even as part of a bounty contract, that might have been changed though, but they are still just bounty hunters)
   
3. Close proximity and ZoI allowance (BHG is Sirius-wide and so are their bases spread throughout Sirius, but we aren't inviting Freelancers, Zoners, Junkers either, are we?)

In short: I'd rather not categorize participants merely on infocards, and would rather look at lore behind their potential involvement.

(I also wonder what Bretonian corporations would do in a battle, but I can only guess that you listing them as invited while also being a corporate leader yourself is just a coincidence.)

1) I've nothing to do with the event's management - I'm clarifying the situation using the rules as they currently stand to the letter, for people who're refusing to read the OP. Neither BAF nor the Council are allied to the other in their infocards, ergo, by the current guidelines they're not invited unless an organiser says otherwise.

2) I'm not a corporate leader. Bowex isn't my faction, however much it appears otherwise. Still it's a moot point - no coincidence. If "Bretonian Corporations" weren't listed on the BAF's infocard, and they didn't have Leeds in their ZoI, I wouldn't have listed them. It's a pretty basic concept. Why do you think Liberty Corporations and LPI were also listed but crossed out? Must be some sort of conspiracy.

I'm personally interested in cracking out some Bowex bombers, yes, but if they weren't specifically allowed to attend as stated in the OP, I wouldn't have raised any fuss.

Allies means infocard allies, yes. Please, lets make this less of a cluster this time.
