Which is good for the RHA, so they can log their ships to hunt them down? But it looks like that is not the RP of the RHA these days. Fair enough. I see the the Red Hessians a bit different.
If I taxed every PoB at once and blew them all up (which believe me I could) there would be no traders left in Rheinland. Think about it, the extortion has more value than killing the base, I'd much rather extort the base for years than have it say no and have to blow it up (with the exception of maybe 1 or 2 bases during my time playing). This also addresses your reply to my comment on nassau, I could go tax it now yes. But coordinating a siege of that magnitude would take time and effort I can't be bothered to give right now.

Quote:You did not claim anything inRP i think. But you claim that the RHA is able to destroy a Base at Planet New Berlin. With a Jorm fleet.
Not a Jorm fleet, but a group (maybe a small fleet) of RHA ships which imo is possible inrp. Doesn't mean they're all jorms, a single jorm inrp would be capable of torching any base in rheinland that isnt a bismarck.
Quote:The question is not dumb trap bait. But valid. An unlawful fleet sitting at New Berlin to siege a base is crap inRP. You can have PVP or RP interactions like this in Dresden, Omega 7, Omega 11. And yes. Mostly unlawfuls aren't nice people. And that's how it should work. We need dirty angry pirates and we need the cuddly ones like you like to call them. But i am referring to a possible POB siege at a Capital Planet of a house. With an ooRP fleet.
I also don't expect an angry unlawful player to tell me something about his live for hours. But i don't want to hear the same lame excuses almost any PVP orientated unlawful player is coming up with again and again. "My RP is only shooting. I don't care if you like that or not." Don't get me wrong here. I expect a Red Hessian to shoot me in a Daumann Miner. But i expect atleast a few lines of RP.
New Berlin is a big part of our ZoI dresden is right next door, I don't see the issue and I haven't come across many others who have a huge issue with it either. Every unlawful and lawful faction pulls this sort of stunt.
We do RP with traders, I spread propaganda as much as I spread piracy, even when I do pirate I have a few lines I drop after I extort the person for propaganda purposes.
Quote:Don't know Zayne. But i know Aerelm and Blodo. They did a great job to keep it fair and balanced. Not always maybe. It's not always possible to keep it fair. You can't please everyone. You will always find someone being angry becuase he died. But they didn't show up with 15+ Jorm fleet in New Berlin as i far as i know. Another example is the ]bd[ faction. They didn't show up with a lol Togo fleet in New Tokyo just for the sake of PVP or RP interactions. I don't have problems with events where both sides agree on the terms. But this one is one-sided. I know it is not your fault that there is no RM. But yeah. I don't think it is much of a fair play to extort POB owners without any effort just because you can ooRP.
I hate to break it too you, but PoB sieges have never been fair. PoB sieges bring out the colorful side in everyone, people play ruthlessly and it wont change with the current game mechanics. ]bd[ might have been glowing angels with fairplay but I have seen BD| mass hordes of togos for sieges in kepler and other systems. Same goes for the Order, Core, GRN, etc.
