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

[Thyrzul]

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.

Nothing in the OP states that participation is restricted by allies based on infocards, that was just Blodo's yellow bullcrap. If we are to determine alliance based on infocards, then I kindly ask the development team to update them first, to list all allies accordingly, not just some select few (e.g. BAF infocard states no more allies than BPA and Bretonian Corporations, no Exiles, no BHG, no BIS, no Privateers, no LN, nobody else... oh and doesn't list GRN under enemies...). Until that happens I will not accept such restriction.

And about BHG's alliance to BAF, there's something I stumbled upon while searching in FLInfocardIE:

"Bounty hunting is a very different occupation than soldiering. Bounty hunters can follow orders, but at the end of the day, we are in it for the credits, not the glory. A tactical retreat is always in our best interests. That's not the case with the military. If we somehow get pulled into fighting the BAF's war with Gallia, I don't want to get killed because some Admiral needs more time for his own withdrawal. I signed up for a payday, not a posthumous medal for valor." ~ 132399

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.

Apologies then, I remember you being associated with Bowex leadership long ago, maybe there were some changes I did not keep a track of. However, my point about "infocard allies" still stands. Let's just have a logical list of main opponents and close allies.

@TheProphet
Well, that was something I didn't know about Bowex, nor seen much of it yet. As for the Exiles, that sounds kinda like what the Council does too, having Leeds in ZoI, raiding GRN, supporting BAF, etc.

@Kjolborn
Who are you?
