IMG questions

[Rudo]

IMG and the Junkers I imagine would have mutual interests regarding open trade hubs and limiting corporate expansion. Also, both sides love money and individual freedom. They don't cross paths much, but when they do they get a great 'I don't mess with you, you don't mess with me' thing going and both sides walk away richer for the exchange.

Personally I got an IMG Gunboat for my Junker 'Negotiator'. Not because I specifically wanted it, but because there were no other real options -- legal neutrality is hard to maintain with a Lunchbox or Rogue GB.

For a long while, the IMG has been a dumpster for all ship designs, that no other faction wanted/looked good with. Such as the Albatrs, Spatial, R. talon and a few others. Because of this, the IMG got labeled as some of the better shipbuilders in Sirius, who sell their products on the open market. Quite ironically, we (BSG/CR) often fought against Raven talons becaus their infocard states them being sold on the black market.

And thus, I think everyone except maybe Outcasts and their closest allies may use IMG turrets.

See, the Spatial being an IMG ship burns me, being a devoted Junker player.

Haphazard hull design, big honking engines, and a nasty forward battery -- that's got 'salvaged and pieced together' all over it.
