Gaians and Corsairs

[farmerman]

You know, a lot of it can depend on how you view the Corsairs, too. One view can easily be that they're just a bit of a less lawful House, only turning to piracy because their own systems can't support them when it comes to food and other supplies. Their main income otherwise is from selling what may be harmless artifacts (as opposed to the mutating, addictive drugs of the Outcasts).

On the other hand, they've apparently nuked a planet, as well as being buddies with the Phantoms, whom the Gaian do not like for their planetary attacks.

The problem I see with resolving it is that I've never seen anything from the Corsairs' point of view about the Cork thing. I didn't even know it for quite a while since it's a bit of a small blurb in a guard system and all.

If it's the former view, and they were to, say, want the Gaians help in making an eco-friendly and viable means of supporting themselves in ways other than piracy, then I see absolutely no problem with it. If it's primarily the latter, there are issues.

Of course, it could be that various Corsair groups are more of one than the other. Perhaps it's best to say the Gaians are allied/friendly with SOME Corsairs while not necessarily others?
