You missed my request for cooperation to the GMG (with the possibility of cutting the last trade artery Rheinland has left) and subsequent polite rejection of it. Shame, that'd have been one strategic checkmate...
But! An accurate timeline, and useful for people needing a quick reference.
Anyway, any neutral transports will end up going into a warzone - if you're spotted docking to Freistadt by the RM, they'll likely confiscate your cargo - if you're carrying supplies to Rheinland the IMG/CR is likely going to turn you back. Bottom line: If noone sees you noone's the wiser. Just be cautious and know that the lanes are a potential hazard right now. I can't speak for everyone else involved but I'll likely just turn folks back instead of shooting folks down. Neither the IMG, Colonials, Kruger/Daumann or RM are pirates and we won't behave as such.
[Edit] This is basically a scrim over resources, nothing more, nothing less. Rheinland trying to push IMG out and their own corporations to higher production - and the IMG resisting this fiercely. For folks that are now cut off from hauling niobium - just retag your transports to Samura or ALG ID or such.
