Systems for factions

[marauder]

I always figured the guards systems were there to give you some NPC backup when your all alone or out-numbered.

Who cares if you have to leave the guard system to go hunting, pirating, trading etc?

If anyone tries to tax a trade route they get moaned at until they stop, or people ignore it, gather a fleet to fight them, or just switch trade routes. Which is why no-ones tried it since that 'new order' faction flopped.

So unless theres two factions using the same ID I don't see what the problem is.

If its that people want to setup their own rules for systems, well, how many people have ignored/broken the AW's rules about theta?

Alot more then the AW know about.

All the RM do is act exactly like the rhienland military NPCs, though the RM players give you alot longer to drop the cargo before trying to blow you up. So far they deal with the ones they catch, which isn't very many (if at all).

The reason I mentioned the RM here is because the zoners don't give a damn what happens as long as they're left alone, which is not how the AW are operating.
