Quote:Hmm, you said those that smuggle cardamine would be not hostile, that was before it was merged, so what is your opinion now that its all under freelancer ID, the smugglers and traders? I''ll be happy to go with either.
Well, it's a tough situation. You might want to PM Del about it, as he controls the LR.
Offhand, pirates will pirate anyone who isn't carrying cardimine -to their base-. Otherwise, smugglers/traders/freelancers/whatever are fair game. Now, if you struck up a deal with the Rogues to be suppliers to gain neutrality to pirating, that's another story. That might make you on bad terms with lawfuls, but that's up to you, and Del.
Outcasts don't have ships you could use. Sabres etc. are BW ships. Corsair ships being banned doesn't cut much out. You still have the world of ship choice open.
Really, make a ship list. It'll look since on paper too.
I'd personally advise against Rheinland GBs, but that's up to your diplomacy with them.
