As it stands now, vanilla Gaians are nothing but under developed filler created by the game designers, & listed as basic pirates with a general lofty cause.
How boring is that?
Since the 1st day I chose to play a Gaian, I've always said 'screw the vanilla view'
The reason for the Gaian/AFA/Hogosha alliance is exceedingly simple: we are at war
Gaians couldn't care less about Bretonian nationalism. Siding with Kusari is a logical position & a necessary evil, as we are enemies of the Bretonian State & can be the keystone to a Kusari victory by being their shady allies from behind enemy lines.
After the war is over there will be a whole new set of bridges to burn, but that time is not now & should be worried about later.
The Mollys seem like natural allies, & the NLH & MR are indeed currently under a non-aggerssion pact, but that has nothing to do with overall Gaian/Molly hate...that too will be addressed & adapted one way or another when the time arrives.
The Gaian/Corsair alliance? I personally can't stand it, never understood it, & don't want it...don't get me started:angry:
Anyhoo, as for being 'soft terrorists' where does that come from? The hippy stereotype?
'Green' is not synonymous with soft, & if my character has to begin ripping other pilots' throats out with his teeth after shooting 'em down for a while to get that point across, I'll let him do it.
