I am sorry about not replying, actually forgot about this. Have a lot going on.
I am glad you understand my point, because I can also see it from your side. But I just think we disagree, I don't think either view is flawed. We are the official Kruger faction and do have to abide by certain Kruger lore, but we are allowed a bit of freedom.
But yes, I do not want to donate my hard earned credits just so mercs and freelancer can make some credits. The bounty board is there to punish enemies of Kruger, and honestly most Hessians are fair, which goes a long way. Where as when Corsairs and Outcasts pirate Kruger they do not ask meager sums. Personally I think pirating is just a part of the game, but some take it to far.
InRP, my character is extremely nationalistic, almost so far as to be prejudice against anyone not from Rheinland. Even though he disagrees with Hessians, they are better than a two bit criminal just for being from Rheinland. So I guess I do have a weak spot for Hessians. But if you are implying that I have an OOC weak spot for Hessians, I'll just make it clear I do not know a single Hessian, nor do I, or have I played a Hessian character. Also do not plan on playing a Hessian.
And just to sum it up, I can tell you I do not know for a fact Hessians pirate Kruger whenever they can. I personally have RPed with Hessians, and been let go with no donation. Not just once either. This is a game of interaction with people, and those interactions can shape people's opinions, not just lore.
Thanks for using our feedback, your information is appreciated and taken into consideration ... we will be adding all Hessians to the board shortly, hopefully that will make more sense to you.
