' Wrote:The point is that Liberty is the largest market for Sirius.
It's no use having plenty of fish if no one wants to buy it from you.
Liberty has been established as the largest economy in Sirius for centuries.
Kusari has literally cut itself off from over 70% of it's export markets, that it had in 800A.S., at this point in time.
While fighting a very taxing war.
And contending with unlawfuls.
Amazing that Kusari grows stronger in 4.86 actually. Rheinland's revolution really kinda screwed it over.
Kusari's make it stronger.
Lets be clear... first, there are three items that are under embargo, Hfuel, Engine components and Plutonium. Aside from those items, trade is flowing normally between Kusari and Liberty.
So where is the downside for Kusari again? Remember, Kusari doesn't produce Hfuel or Plutonium for export, the GMG does, and it's shipped by Kishiro, but only shipped. Kusari produces engine components, but some of the excess can easily be used by the Samura and Kishiro, so that helps some, but yes there is a downside for Kusari, but not the monumental downside people seem to think is going on.
So whats the problem?

No Ageira/DSE = Tradelanes and jumpgates falling apart.
Liberty can get H-fuel, although not that much.
Kusari wouldn't exist without it's travel infrastructure.
As I said, there has been no restrictions placed on this by either Kusari or Liberty.
Also, there is another group out there that has tradelanes and gates and doesnt deal with Ageira or DSE.
