ALG/Liberty?

[Sturmwind]

People don't understand that Liberty is not at war with Rheinland; Liberty's Government and Liberty's Navy are at war with Rheinland's Government and Rheinland's Military.

If ALG are a privately owned corporation (which I assume they are, but my knowledge of Rheinland corporations leaves a lot to be desired) then Liberty has no qualms with them. Enforce the embargo, but if ALG is not trading directly to Rheinland, then they are supporting Liberty's economy, not Rheinland's.

People are looking at this war in Black and White. Or more accurately, Green and Red is dead.

Daumann, Kruger and Republican ships are banned and rep ninja'd by Liberty, ALG is the only one with entry permit. So whoever enacted that is viewing the war as black and white. Furthermore, individual decisions and RP hardly can resolve that if you're blasted by a cruiser patrol near the Hudson gate. Same applies to the Bretonian trader - Kusari trader relations.

Addressing the logical perspective, a Rheinland trader takes the Rheinland product abroad, turns it into cash and takes the cash back to Rheinland, as it is not embargoed. That is supporting the economy.

As far as I know ALG is the only Rheinland corporation, which "is allowed to operate/fly in/through" Liberty. But I'm putting that in "", because I'm not sure.

But being the "best waste disposal company" it would be strange if they weren't allowed in Liberty.

I think ALG is one of those groups which aren't really paid any attention too. Almost no one plays them, they only have two (?!) bases and you don't see many NPCs of them around. (Being a member of the IMG, I always wonder why the IMG is "allied" to them..."Who are they?!!!";)They just don't have any connection to the IMG in my opinion.)

Ironically, I'm on my ALG atm and have been for another 120 hours.... I assume you're just not really picking the right time to look. See, you can always join if you deem the faction so offensively inactive, but if you aren't intending to help out, then... yeah.

Also, your note about the IMG-ALG alliance stuck me as a surprise too, that must be a mistake. The ALG is not listed on the information sheet of the official IMG as allied, nor is the IMG listed on the ALG relation sheet at all. I should ask Ventana about that though...
