From the Molly ID:
- Can attack any ships within their Zone of Influence, except transports
- Can demand cargo and credits from any ship within their Zone of Influence, and attack them if they do not comply
- Can attack BMM ships anywhere

From Outcast ID:
- Can attack any ships within their Zone of Influence, except transports
- Can demand cargo and credits from any ship within their Zone of Influence, and attack them if they do not comply
- Can treat ships carrying Artifacts or Stabiline as combat targets

Yeah, there seems to be more than that one problem with IDs, such as ID lines not only contradicting rules, but also contradicting each other, unless the first line says "except transports under conditions other than below". The assumption of someone reading an ID would be that all lines apply all the time, not that they invalidate each other (especially when its not stated that they do).

If you took them literally as they are written (they apply unless exceptions are explicitly mentioned as exceptions) you could pirate a fellow outcast for cardamine, but not touch a transport carrying artifacts through Omicron Alpha, because the "except transports" line doesn't say there are exceptions to it or that other lines over ride it.

In anticipation of big brain replies to this, yeah I know what it's meant to say, but it doesn't really say what it's meant to say.

Maybe a better way of dealing with this would be to have an ID line like "Can engage in piracy/policing of factions ABC and/or commodities XYZ", and have the rules say how piracy/policing is supposed to work.

Anyway this thread is about the rule, I really don't wanna touch the mess that is IDs atm.
