Ask Discovery: Order/Corsair Alliance

[Heartless]

I have thought about this before and it's the artifacts that bug me. They smuggle them... yet I get the feeling we should be detaining ships with them and taking the artifacts for our own use. But attacking allied ships for that?

The reason for the alliance is mutual. Corsairs can help us survive in the Omicrons because we are small, and in turn they gain some technology (I mean, they sell the Osiris).

Other than that, fighting outcasts and the such has always been out of the question for me. I've never given an order to attack outcasts or anything of the sort, because the last thing I need is an outcast fleet in Minor. Now if some Order players fly to Gamma for whatever reason, well, show we're friendly? If they're attack by bounty hunters then I understand getting involved, personally, I dislike bounty hunters more than nomads. But if it's an outcast fleet or something, then our involvement should be minimal.

As for the artifact thing, I think I'll bring something up in the diplomatic matters thread, cause that really does have to be discussed.
