Scepticising the corsairs

[Chico]

Senor Ash,


"....humble pirates not to be treated better than raw sewage. And so they may if you continue to resume your parasitic relationship with the Sirius lawful house factions."

Are you aware that our only two natural exports are warriors and artifacts?
Artifacts are banned throughout Sirius which leaves one thing. What would you do?
Stand by and watch your family starve?

"....still reap injustice upon the innocent civilians of Rheinland, Kusari, Bretonia and Liberty."

Kusari and Bretonia on the other hand have nothing but love for each other?
What do they do to each others civilian traders?
What are the Libertonians doing to Rheinland civilian traders?

"......You have found a planet to call home and you are more than capable of proceeding an honest and lawful living both producing and laundering goods."

We have been laundering goods profusely throughout Sirius but for some reason, the 'Lawful' houses don't like our goods. Their people do, but their laws forbid it. Thats not us, thats them. It's their way of cutting us out. Three opponents are easier to deal with than four.
We are currently unable to produce enough food to feed our population and need to rely on some of our neighbours for our supply. This looks like likely to continue long into our future as we strive to produce efficient bio-domes.

"....What will happen once you have embedded yourself throughout the entire sirius sector? Will you continue to suck the prosperity from the innocent four now at your mercy? Will you make slaves of them?"

The innocent four?
They attack our civilian supply ships and outlaw our produce. Why are they innocent?
Slaves?
Possibly. I know Gentle is looking to increase the size of his harem but even he might have trouble with all four houses. He'd probably try though...
The general populace will be used I imagine as it suits. I am not a Corsair Elder but I would think that doctors will remain doctors, construction workers will remain construction workers etc etc. They will now be working for a greater good. That is the difference.

".....Even if you chose to eradicate them you will be left with chaos if you continue your methods of piracy and robbery. Your faction will collapse upon itself when your people realise what they have been taught to do cannot be done without turning on their brothers."

Er....continue piracy?
On who?
There will only be us left.
Turning on our brothers?
Ever been to Omicron Iota?
You have strange 'brothers' Senor.
The war continues. The Outcasts will perish, or we will. Anyone who gets between us is just collateral.
The 'Houses' will provide us, whether they want to or not, the means to do this.

Good luck to you Senor Ash in your attempt to get us recognised.

Damn keyboard playing up. Seems to swap 'H' for 'S' randomly...

Moderator (Gronath): Yeah, very funny, Chico. Apparently you got stuff like 'throughout', multiple 'houses' and a myriad of other 'h' flavoured words quite right. All from which you could've just copy and pasted a harmless 'h' nonetheless. Fixed it for you this time.
