Junkers...

[Benjamin]

Yeah personally I've viewed junkers as organised crime, be it mafia or large-scale drug dealing. My own junker came about after watching The Wire for the second time, and draws heavily from all that. I mean, you have the biggest drug dealer in the city working out of a little junk shop, deftly fixing a toaster while he brokers some million dollar drug deal. And you of course have Bubbles who walks around the city collecting scrap metal to sell on.
But yeah, the junkers are the only real cognate to contemporary criminals in freelancer. Hogosha are close, but they have that whole thing where they can actually openly flout the law. All the other unlawfuls are just out-and-out enemies of the state, terrorists, whatever. Junkers - you might 'know' this guy's a smuggler or a drug dealer or whatever, but if you can't prove anything, you just have to treat him as a civilian.
And if some guy rolls in to town and kills them all because he's being paid to by some terrorists from another country, dude is a criminal.

Surprised at the difference in response to the zoner and junker bounties, really, especially when, in gross tonnage, I bet zoners shift around 10000x more contraband.*
