Let's say you are a Kruger transport, or ALG and you are currently transporting Diamonds to their destination. Huzzah, in comes an Red Hessian. Sounds are off, gates are shut down, and it's that "calm before the storm" moment.

What happens?
How do you look at the situation?
Do you see that Red Hessian as a pirate? Is he really a pirate?
Or he's a revolutionary, unhappy by being screwed for century from his government. After he managed to raise to the top by people revolution, the greedy power hungry corporations managed to bounce him down again and mark him as illegal. He loathes your corporation and your structure.

Do you comply with his orders? Do you know what have you gotten yourself into?


And what about you Hessian? Do you see the target as an "trader" or do you see him as the bastard that is actually stepping over blood of your fathers, the only great man you know, that fought with those like him, side to side capturing the enemy bases, raising his flags of revolution around entire New Berlin. The same people that endured the great Corsair invasion in omega 5 and that captured Cassablanca without getting it lost in a week. Is he actually to blame that he's transporting the diamonds, those diamonds that squeezed the life of your people when corporations - seeing they are going down financially, started to drain more and more money from the workers? Or is he another puppet on a string? Should you open his eyes by destroying his cargo, or have mercy and leave some cargo so he doesn't get fired at home.




==
This thing could be applied to every government "terrorists" out there like Lane Hackers, Corsair pirates, Red Hessians, LWB, Outcasts and Farmer's alliance and others...
From roleplay style, I see no problem with blasting the hell out of his cargo pods, making sure that cargo does not reach it's destination, but I can see that pushing away the player from that route, and taking the lesser way out, that would actually cripple the corporate trading even more. And I love corporate trading.

If everyone pushed together towards enforcing this, maybe something would happen. But for now, I'm wondering will I be labeled as an a$$hole from that trader that I forced to destroy all of his Military Vehicles heading into Bretonnia.
Or that trader that I blew up when he refused to give me the cargo of engine components going to Bretonnia. The same Bretonnian that has shipyards that produce combat vehicles that will one day, with tons of luck shoot down one of my wingmates.
From Rp point, its all good. From fairplay, is it?
Maybe it wouldn't be if, once you lose your ship in combat, it actually blows up and you need to gather credits again. But it seems to me, that once you grind up those 2billions for the mega capital ship and equip it nicely, only things that make you grind for that ship again are rules you break and get sanctioned for.
So since that's a fact... It made me wonder what are your opinions about RP vs fairness and this is all a game factor.
