If you catch one doing it, they are on their own as far as consequence.

Zoners already have some of the best traderoutes out there, and they have a lot of variety to choose from. There's not much excuse for doing cardi/slaves unless the character has a good reason to be running them (and if he does, why's he a Zoner?).

Talking about InRP routes or about routes in house space??
I imagine you got profitability in both cases.

Routes which include Zoner bases, relatively in-RP.

Well, all factions are having at least one good inRP route and they are all about as profitable. And its not "Relatively in-RP" like you said, its in RP.

I think if we're going to consider labels such as "Terrorist" or "Po-po" relative in the Zoner world (i.e. We don't give a hoot as long as you don't cause trouble) that smuggling and illegality should be relative as well.

It only makes sense, otherwise all those arguments people were grumbling about "TRRORZT! KEEL U!" and "Wer n00tr4l, k?" are completely moot.

Erm, No. Most corps are screwed when it comes to routes.

No longer a slave to the man!

' Wrote:same with other things. - so you can haul gaian wildlife from perth to okinawa, - but not through leeds, cause bretonia "officially" starts at the border station at the edinbourgh / leeds jumpgate. - hauling gaian wildlife through kusari though is allowed, cause its only illegal in bretonia.

Pretty sure the Bretonian police treat all of Edinburgh as Bretonia, and I'm definitely sure the Kusari police treat gaian wildlife as illegal.

Spot on. I pretty much stick to running deuterium and pineal amulets to FP's with an occasional iridium run. I usually avoid house space as much as possible unless we need something we can't get elsewhere. (engine components, Luxury consumer goods)

There are routes which may start at a Zoner base, but spend most of the rest of the time running around in House space. That's 'relatively in-RP', since while it does use a Zoner base or bases, for the most part the Zoners are supposed to avoid House space. But that's the way the routes are set up.

And not all routes are created equal. Zoners have some very good (legal) routes available, as well as having a far wider variety (of good routes) to choose from than any House corporation (in addition to their lack of natural enemies, which makes them an inherently better choice for traders who don't want to be bothered). Some House corporations have almost nothing (among the House corporations, I'm mostly familiar with Bretonian and Cryer routes... And oddly enough, the best Cryer routes are as much Zoner routes as they are Cryer... And aren't completely legal). I don't really know how the IMG or GMG are doing for decent trade routes, since I've never had much dealings with those factions, nor do I know much about Rheinland or Kusari corporate trade routes.

For some reason, all Bretonia can seem to do is export Refugees, despite the fact that it's the industrial House. I don't know of any good Bretonian trade routes which don't involve taking Refugees to Liberty or Rheinland, and I've spent some time looking.
