' Wrote:Can I make a suggestion? Don't try to or even expect to find work everywhere. And don't expect your actions at one end of the galaxy to be overlooked when you go elsewhere. If you do choose to fight for the Order, then that closes down lawful work for you in Liberty. Plus you would have trouble with the Guild elsewhere in Sirius. If you choose to take contracts against the Rheinlanders for the lawful factions in Liberty, the you can't reasonably expect to find unlawful work in Liberty.
In other words, you can't ever be a true neutral mercenary. The first contract you take will shape the path ahead.
I agree, I only used the Order as an example. Another example could be that if we did get a contract with the Order, they might be able to lead us to one with Rheinland, or the Corsairs.
Before making a contract with a faction there are several questions that need to be asked:
What other contracts will this open up for us?
What possibilities disappear once this contract is created?
Are the possible and impossible contracts made with this one worth it for the money the faction is offering?
If the enemy offered a better deal there are also several questions:
What contracts that we currently help will this one help?
What contracts will this one destroy?
What new possibilites are opened with this new contract?
Are these new possibilties and the contracts lost worth the raise in money and the trouble of switching sides?
' Wrote:Plus, attempting to work multiple sides will only get you a bad reputation for unreliability.
I wouldn't say we would work multiple sides. We would make it obvious to our previous client that the enemy has offered us a better deal, and see if they produce a counter-offer. If they don't, then we have switched and we attack them instead.
We won't attack the NPCs as that can effect future deals, however we will shoot at them to make them hostile if we are in an area populated with them.
