powertraders will just run like hell, so no rp there
a lot of traders will just avoid Rheinland altogheter now. first you wade trough pirates to try and avoid losing money, then the RM "pirates" you 200m from your destination? with tax amounts that some pirates won`t even ask for?
this si going to result in silly cat and mouse games between (factionised) traders and the RM.
I`m all for making Rheinland more busy and popultaed. but I feel that this is not the way to do it.
if I come in with my Bowex, from bretonia, I lose money in O3 if I`m unlucky enough to meet some (lol)pirates. then the RM taxes me for delivering goods. then i have to pay to haul cargo out again. then I get pirated in O7 or 3 again wiith some lousy luck.
I`m no powertrader. but that doesn`t really sound appealing at all..
