Miners and Pirates

[Derkylos]

According to the rumors on Java, IMG and Outcasts exist in a sort of mutual "leave us alone...or else" state, with the miners usually ending up on the "or else" end. I'm sure a small tax wouldn't go amiss for the Outcasts, but, in all eventualities, IMG is not really a great threat, being mostly a civilian corporation, and, when the miners are simply hanging around Java, rather than actively interdicting cardi shipments, OCs should probably have no real beef with them.

IMG accepts that the Taus are primarily Outcast space, and tries to extract as much ore as possible without annoying the owners, while the Outcasts simply rely on their cardi shipments as income. Kinda like living under an oppressive, unpredictable government...
