Enough.

The Queen's Armed Forces are not a democracy.

The following is excerpted from the BAF Field Manual.

BAF Field Manual //Faction Status



The Queen's Diplomacy

Friendly
Gateway
Liberty Security Force
Liberty Navy
Planetform
Bounty Hunters' Guild
GC
Blood Dragons
Outcasts (Do NOT permit smuggling, however)


Note that this "friendly" status may be revised to "neutral" due to recent concerns. However, the above are currently BAF Standing Orders.

It seems that the document referenced by Colonel Henry is out of date. While we cannot always prevent earnest Bretonian Reserve Units (//Indys) from acting as per that referenced document, the position of the Bretonian Armed Forces is as indicated in the field manual (//faction status) and this has been the policy for well over a year:

Namely this : The Enemy of my Enemy is my Friend. They fight Kusari. So do we.

BAF units are not to engage Outcast units in any location, unless defending themselves from misguided cardimine-deluded Outcasts who choose to aggress against us.

Outcasts are permitted to pass through Bretonian space, but NOT to linger. If smuggling or pirating in Bretonia however, they are to be treated as any other smuggler or pirate.

I trust this clarifies the issue.

(//The above has been the policy for over a year. It is not consistent with the infocards but it is based on established in-game faction diplomacy. "Neutral" status for OC likely makes more sense, but I won't have BAF members suddenly shooting Outcasts after more than a year of benign mutual non-aggression. Indys can do whatever they want to. Bloody Clear?)


//EDIT : I am also ABSOLUTELY sure my message dump is no place for this debate.
