This is the sanction notice for the incident in question and reflects our policy. Unless there's extenuating circumstances, such as specific ID lines, we want to limit the victim's losses to either a portion of profit in the case of credits, or only as much as the pirate can carry in the case of cargo. The reason for this is that we've decided that the amount of toxicity generated after being on the recieving end of spite is really not worth the 'fun' generated by the person dishing it out. Piracy can be done healthily if trader PLAYERS don't feel like it's better to just log off rather than haul, and that can come at the cost of some RP backstories and some fun derived from bullying traders.
Does this in turn mean that a IMG/other faction cannot demand the full drop of Cardamine/any other "contraband" in the name of the same said "fun"?
Code:
The Independent Miners Guild (IMG) is a loose confederation of miners who work in the undeveloped border worlds, staking claims and harvesting deposits far from the reach of the larger corporations. They often compete with House Corporations over their mineral claims in the border worlds.
This Independent Corporate ID is used by Independent Miners Guild members, who:
- Can attack any ship in defense of allied ships.
- Can engage in piracy against competitors outside of House Space.
- Cannot dock Cruisers, Battlecruisers, or Battleships in House Space, except on IMG bases.
- Cannot use ships with more than 4,300 cargo space.
Within Zone of Influence (Bretonia and bordering systems, Taus, Omegas):
- Can attack ships considered hostile by the IMG.
- Can attack competitors outside of Bretonia.
- Can engage in piracy against Corporate ships outside of Bretonia.
Cryer Pharmaceuticals is the Liberty bio-medical corporation that developed Stabiline, an expensive synthetic pharmaceutical that staves off the effects of Cardamine withdrawal. High demand for the drug, combined with the Outcasts' obvious desire to destroy it, have left Cryer facilities and personnel under constant threat.
This Liberty Corporate ID is used by Cryer Pharmaceuticals employees, who:
- Can attack Gaians, Golden Chrysanthemums, Lane Hackers, Liberty Rogues, and Outcasts.
- Can demand Cardamine.
- Cannot use Cruisers, Battlecruisers, or Battleships.
Within Zone of Influence (Liberty and bordering systems, Sigmas and bordering Omicrons, Cambridge):

This Independent Unlawful ID is used by Corsairs, who:
- Can attack any ship carrying Hessian Tears or Cardamine.
- Can attack any hostile ship in Omicron Gamma
Within Zone of Influence (Bretonia, Kusari, Omegas, Omicrons, Rheinland, Sigmas, Dublin):
