Treaty of Tau

[Dab]

It actually did all happen in-RP and is the excuse Niezck and IMG used to forbid access to IMG stations.
I can also provide links for everything that's been RPed, including an actual coup d'etat against PM Lampkin and President Wingates after the treaty fiasco and reelections.

So boo to you I guess, man.
Don't know anything about that but I don't see 1 in-RP reason as to why IMG are restricting access to the Colonial Remnant.
It's all powerplaying motivated by OoRP reasons.
The IMG allows virtually anyone besides the Outcasts on their stations, and I don't see why someone who's supposed to be neutral/friendly is restricted.
It's all childish reasoning, sorry.
Myself, personally, if I had a CR character, would continue docking on Falkland until the admins sanctioned me, if they sanctioned me, because I don't recognize OoRP reasons for doing utterly irrational things in-RP which, were this "reality", would result in a prompt sacking of all IMG assets in the Taus.

But by all means, go ahead with the treaty if you feel like it.
I'll be first in line to demand a rational outcome of the Tau situation in-RP though, which, as far as I see at the moment, would manifest as a joint Kusari and Colonial Remnant force trashing the IMG's poorly defended bases while Outcasts watch laughing from the sidelines.

Eat that.

There are several in-RP reasons for IMG to restrict CR's access to IMG stations, and several in-RP reasons not to. At this point it is simply IMG's decision, as they have reasons to do either one. It's not powergaming motivated by OORP reasons. IMG allows people on their stations, so long as they do not cause them trouble. CR has caused IMG trouble in several different ways, so they are within their right and within RP to restrict their access if they want to.

If IMG really does wish to, they CAN ask admins to repfix CR so they can no longer dock on Falkland. This is an official faction right, and IMG can do that.

Your 'outcomes' about the Taus are seriously lacking in justification.. First off, what reason would KNF have to shoot the IMG? If they did, they lose Holmen as a supply depot for their offensive against Bretonia. Second, they lose all the resources IMG trades to them. Third, they gain IMG as an enemy, and IMG has several bases in Bretonia and other locations from which to attack them, as well as good relations with a number of factions that they could enlist the aid of in harming Kusari.

On top of that, if the IMG are gone, Kusari has to deal with all the Outcasts themselves, as IMG will no longer be at Falkland and Java to ward off Outcast attacks. So after wasting considerable military hardware to attack IMG while they are in the middle of a war with Bretonia, Kusari then has to devote even more military hardware in defending Kusari from the Outcasts and the IMG. So it's a lose-lose situation. They have nothing to gain from destroying IMG, and doing so will result in an even worse situation for Kusari militarily and economically.

And then the Outcasts; The Outcasts would not sit by and laugh as Kusari and CR annihilated IMG. IMG has been a thorn in the Outcast's side, yes. They very much hate each other. However, the Outcasts would use that situation to their benefit, forcing IMG to grant concessions in return for Outcast assistance. This would include vowing to not interdict or hamper Cardamine and slave shipments in any way, leaving Tau-37, and supplying the Outcasts with money and goods.

Then you have the BAF to consider. KNF would have to pull some of the ships from the frontline in order to go through with this plan, which allows the BAF a hole to bust through, damaging Kusari's war effort. Then IMG will also throw full support behind Bretonia in order to get their vengeance against Kusari. That means supplying Bretonia with Niobium and other resources used in building new ships. That means making Aland Shipyard available to BAF to help build more warships. That means IMG combat ships aiding BAF in attacks on KNF.

You haven't thought this matter through.. KNF has nothing to gain from IMG's destruction, and a lot to lose. Why else do you think they've left Holmen in IMG's hands?
