Pardon me but some of you need to stop thinking that Liberty can do everything because they have cash.
If a decision is reached that Kusari won't export fuel to Liberty then trust me, they wont get as many as they used to get. Even if some smugglers dare to go and try it, those same smugglers have to pass either trough kusari or trough rheinland to liberty. Not happening. Get it?
They'll find different sort of fuel They'll do something like that, but they certainly won't cash out a ****load of cash and say "there! problem fixed"
That's really not how things go.
Besides, war with Kusari, siding with bretonia? Why? So they can take Taus? You think CR and IMG will take pleasure in someone else poking in Tau systems?
All they can do is secure their ground well. Thats for sure. But to actually wage war against Kusari is pointless at this stage without finding someone to poke kusari from other side. Like outcasts (oh snap they're stretched and not liberty's allies) or Corsairs (right), or ...
