QCP| to separate from BAF|

[pbrione]

Well, I should probably clarify a couple of things. First of all, this does not neccessarily mean a great distancing in inRP relations, merely opens the door to one, due to the new freedom of the QCP to choose their own diplomacy. I don't beleive QCP have been "banned from shooting zoners"; they can still pirate Zoners and attack them inRP where situations demand it, just not focus on attacking Gran Canaria to the exlusion of pirating in Kusari. More conflicts will arise as, by their very nature, the Privateers exist to attack targets that the regular BAF cannot and what the QCP consider "harms Bretonia" is not neccessarily the same thing that the BAF considers to "harm Bretonia".

So, no, a great distancing in relations in not neccessary but is possible and for that reason certain steps such as QCP not docking on BAF bases are considered prudent. Plausable deniability is made easier if we don't keep supplying QCP with ships, for instance. Now, that's not "neccessary RP" in the sense that any RP is really neccessary, but it is RP that I have agreed with Blunt and unless I can be convinced otherwise by some very good RP reasons, it is RP that will stand.
