This Is Crazy!

about factions being at war. i don t think that pirates are considered "at war" with traders. they are hostile. but not at war. i think the term "at war" is reserved for the major factions bretonia - kusari, outcast and allies - corsair and allies

Thats not quite true I think the subtleties of factional relations shiuld be taken into account. Clearly in some pirates faction story it says what corperations they came from and why they hate them. If I'm now wrong, Unioners have a thing with Daumann, Mollys are against BMM. The origins of these pirate groups are intergral to their story and what corps they have beef with changes how they deal with these groups and others. Pirate groups may be at war with a particular corp. In this situation I think attacking to destroy and not pirate might be in order.(Although this would go better with a factional RP storyline on the fourms)
