He takes a long drink from his cup and finishes it, sliding it forwards once done. A girl quickly runs over to refill it from the shadows outside of the table.
"First thing's first. We need to revisit who we can trust and who we can't..."
He takes a puff from his smoke again and leans forward in his chair, resting his arms on the table.
"We've been already doing some damage to the Outcasts. After the past they have been taking some shots back at us... same thing goes with the Hogosha, Xenos, Hellfire and the RHA." He shrugs. "Those are already targets that we take out from contracts... some of the contract however need to be... revisited. There is a slight problem... Although we know IMG's bounty board is still holding their hit-list with Outcasts... DHC has removed apparently their target on RHA... Same thing with congress removing their target bounty on Hellfire Legion. And Xenos and Hogosha might not be funded soon by the congress anymore since they might be... declining as of late.... This raises some issues to who would our next sponsors could be?
"We all know why we target them. Business and image to everyone else. But we cannot do it without sponsors that cover our hide to not make us look like it's all on us... or can we?
The Outcasts are a threat to our drug business as competitors. It is a no-brainer that we target them out when we can. Makes us look good too.
The Hogosha have a hand on the artifacts trade. At one point we were thinking to join with them... but then we decided not and to help out the Junkers. Better buisness in the end and we get the spoils. Not to mention too that the Blood Dragons want them dead too. So two wins from that.
To help out the DHC, the RHA were targeted as well. Blood diamonds are really the only thing that we would be after... but the Corsairs have a better trade relation to uphold. So it looks good for them and the miners.
Then we've got the Hellfire and the Xenos. Everyone hates the Xenos... no point in us doing anything with them either... well.... not really any point in shooting them anyway unless they are in the way... which they usually are. The same thing goes with the Hellfire. We take them out since we'll look good in the end and make some money out of it... but if there will be no money... then what good would it be?
"I'm curious to know your opinions on any of these groups. Experiences too in meeting with them. What do you fancy we do in this situation.
"Now here are the other ones now... in question.
"Lets start with the more easier ones and move our way down, shall we?
"SCRA... no point of attacking them anyway besides image. We still have a place to get payment from the kills... and they quite angry with us after we walking into 'their' space. So it seems rightfully so we take em on.
"Liberty Rogues... we've run into them a few times as of late. We all know PLR is gone too which we had more talk with. We did however worth with the rogues before... and we didn't mind them nor they minded us... though with now changes I guess they don't care anymore and only look for piracy. On the other hand though the Rogues before made more money allied with us than against. The state as it is now seems to be that the Rogues don't really give a %$$# and pirate us anyway from our own goods.... or even shoot us on sight. And I mean... we already have a possible contract to take them on with.... all I need to hear is opinions now on what to go through with it. Discussions or take care of business.
Those are the ones we need to discuss now.. think about and take a stand on... Well?"
Silence was around the room as the men looked at the illuminated logos of the factions in question. If interacted with them they could also see written the main points that Sunny was talking about for each as he spoke.
