Benitez Feedback

[sovereign]

I'm going to ask why the Bundschuh are hostile now.

FOR THE LAST TIME (hopefully), BUNDSCHUH ARE NOT OUTCAST ALIGNED.

That's something I'm going to take up with the Corsair council the next time some random Corsair goes "look a bundie pew pew pew".

The Bundschuh cling to the Hessians for support, but as far as reciprocating the assistance, the Bundschuh go as far as lending aid with PR, recruitment, the odd hit on mutual enemies, and occasional access to the Bundschuh Party's vast political influence. Nothing more. We don't really give a damn about the Corsairs, Outcasts, or anyone else unless they set foot in Rheinland. Once you are in Rheinland, however, we'll not-so-politely remove all foreign parties from our space unless a friendly (read: Junkers, Hessians, Unioners, LWB, and fellow Bundschuh) claims them and escorts them through their stay in Rheinland. We want a cardamine-enslaved population as much as we want The Brotherhood to have funding for another assault, that is, not very much. Artifacts and cardamine get turned back, as do diamonds, mining machinery, niobium, plutonium, deuterium, etc. While we don't care for you, we certainly aren't Outcast pawns or even friends (ignore the loadouts on Bundschuh Guard NPCs). Please, move Bundschuh from hostile to neutral or unfriendly, its something I really wouldn't want to have to bother the council with. Thank you in advance.

On similar note, the specific factions mentioned in your diplomacy need updating... SA is now LN, SF has been replaced with QCRF, stuff like that. Everything else I can't comment on as all I have to go on is hearsay, having never interacted with a Benitez character myself.
