' Wrote:Having said that, I do personally disagree with the ingame "RP" dictating Liberty and the Order being at war and I think its not the best thing for it. I'm also completely opposed to the Order-Corsair alliance for similar reasons. But until such a time as it gets changed, then that's the way it is and you deal with it.
I must say I completely agree with this statement, and always have. I'm sure I've expressed it before, a long time ago. Order could survive perfectly well with only direct alliance to the Zoners, and I can't see the heroic nomad-hunters allying with the rather nastily vicious Corsairs. And Liberty and the Order had made nice at the end of the SP campaign.
Anyway, back to the topic: If the Bs and Order Council have no authority over any Order characters who don't agree to follow their authority, then this discussion has to be pretty much finished, isn't it? The original post implied (if you call flat out saying so 'implied') that there would be consequences for breaking Council decree's, which is what violated the faction/indie rules of separation. With allegiance to the Council being entirely voluntary, I don't see any further problems, even if said Council ends up being a Bs puppet (not saying it is or it will, though).
