Union Corse ID

[Slartibartfast]

The Hogosha are the best Pals with the KNF. They are a part of Kusari Society and strive to protect and promote the Greater Good of Kusari (while making a little money on the side). They dont attack Kusari Ships, or Kusari Corporate transports. (Well Kishiro is still up for grabs, but thats Samura's fault >.>). They help out with the Tau Blockade, and will gladly help any KNF officer in distress.
The UC and GRP...well....its not surprising to see them fighting each other. The UC's main goal is profit, anyway, anyhow. They are more of a leech on Gallia then real benefactors. The "Can land on lawful bases" is evident that the Union Corse are more like Smugglers than real opponents of the Crown. The UC and Gallic Brigands only have access to Heavy Fighters while the GRP and GRN have access to VHF with superior weapons. (Not to mention Gallic brigand ships are more armored than their UC counterparts).

Should GRP/GRN be hostile to UC? That would be little harsh IMHO.
-Let the Council fight the Crown
-Let the Brigands Pirate/ Pillage (there pirates)
-Let the Union Corse Smuggle/ Collect Bounties

Actually, Brigands are the smugglers. They're controlling 75% of Gallia's black market.

As far as I know, Corse are more like hitmen than anything else.

edit: but you're right about the comparison with Hogosha... They're not really like them.
