As the trade with Liberty slowly diminishes, the desperate politicians look to corporations at home and abroad for further financial gain for the Crown. With few options, and even fewer places to invite them to trade to, the die is cast and Planetform's project on Planet Wight is chosen to be the first such attempt to lure foreign corporations into formalizing beneficial contracts with the Realm.
Defending them, the stalwart Royal Bretonia Navy, aided by their loyal Bounty Hunters Guild, looking to profit off of the pirates present, are ready to defend the transports against any threats. With the funding already allocated, it remains to be seen how profitable this venture truly will be.
On the other side of the law, the Gaians seek to lead the efforts against the encroaching Planetform operation. Already, the Green Front mobilizes to tackle this issue with caution, as neither they nor the Gaians wish to see more planets corrupted by corporate greed.
