Bretonian Buccaneers

[Capt. Henry Morgan]

i posted this in the other thread, but will repost it here.

and what did teh buccaneers have that the junkers were willing to take in exchange for docking rights?

And we explained that in the other thread, too. Come to think of it, you brought this up on Skype earlier, too. Maybe we're paying rent or something. It's an imperfect solution to the problem of where to dock. We're not getting into bed with the Mollys or Gaians, since we don't want any part of their diplomacy, so we're not using their bases. We pirate IMG on a regular basis, so the Hood is out, too. The Zoners have no bases in Bretonia. Even if they did, we wouldn't use those either, since we pirate them, too. That leaves us with Trafalgar as the only place left in Bretonia for us to dock. If/when we get our own base, we can dock there, but right now we're stuck with no really good options, so we go with the one that's the least unlikely.

The whole point of what we're doing is to make a unique unlawful Bretonian faction. The docking problem comes with all non-vanilla factions, we're no exception. A long time ago, people griped about the Harvesters using Junker bases, as well as the tag/id. For them, it was the best option of a bunch of imperfect options. For us, it's no different. We're doing the best we can with what we've got, even if it's not all ideal. If you've got another solution to our problem that doesn't involve radical changes to our diplomacy or waiting until 4.86 or something, then let me hear it.

EDIT:
It just occurred to me that I came off rather annoyed in this post, and I apologize. I just had a rather annoying RL issue come up, then I read darthbeck's post, and took it the wrong way.
