Gaians and Corsairs

[hribek]

Whilst we're at it, IMG and Corsairs shouldn't be friends either. IMG and Mollys/Hessians should get on okay.

IMG are offering missions against the Corsairs, actually. Land on their base in Omega-7 to check. The empathy bug has been fixed in 4.85 - means doing those missions does not make you lose reputation with the IMG ("wait, it should go up, wtf?")

Ok then...getting on topic w/ my 2 shiny pennies:

Personally, I'm all for the Gaians going hostile w/ the Sairs. & not just for nuking Cork.
The bottom part of the faction card says:

Many of the modern Gaians are ordnary criminals & pirates who consider an alliance with the corsairs to be the best way to ensure their survival.

This has always been a problem, because alot of people read the word 'many' & think 'all'

In my mind, that one little word splinters the faction into 'Gaians' & 'Modern Gaians' & if it comes down to it, I'd absolutely love to <strike>see</strike> start a Gaian civil war over it.

Fact of the matter is, Gaians on the whole are not pirates...they are pissed off activists with a portion of their number that go off pirating people...& this is a very bad thing, cause it takes away from the potential of what the Gaians should be & makes them seen by the public as impotent thugs looking for a quick buck

My point exactly. I wouldn't join the Gaians in their current state, because they don't offer anything special.
