What is the Buccaneers stance towards the Hogosha/Black Dragon Society?
You have Kusari factions down as hostile but bear in mind that we Hogosha are actually a criminal organisation with a seemingly "lawful" front and we are allies to both the Corsairs and Gaians.
Seeing as Hogosha specialize in Artifact trade, they're aligned with the Corsairs, I'm pretty sure we would see them as neutral due to the fact that we don't want to be involved in the Outcast-Corsair war.

Arigatoo Ethan,
Our swords are not likely to cross then unless you or your comrades are planning on planting flowers in our garden!
And for whoever it was that said Kusari needed pirates, we Hogosha like taking gaijin corporations and traders money, the Blood Dragons and GC are the extremists and the AFA are just anti-Kusari nutters, why would we need pirates?

Just a point though, if you Hogsha peoples are out and about in Leeds causing mayhem, I'm aiming for the head. In character I really don't care who you are - unless you're a Junker, Molly or Gaian and you're pirating/trading/smuggling in Leeds or Bretonia, you're fair game.
To the Buccaneers, 'neutral' means target of opportunity.

You'd be surprised. I've seen Hogsha fighters flitting around causing trouble for the BAF before. But we probably won't be bumping into them regularly so meh - as I said, neutral targets of opportunity. Diplomacy with rival pirate groups is mostly situational, with events evolving/devolving on how they react to us.

What do you mean "what would the Hogosha be doing in Leeds anyway?", where have you been?
The northern tip of Leeds is now Kusari space, stokes station is now a KNF base and there is a KNF battleship there by the gate.
Personnally though the only business I have in Leeds is to occassionally visit Stokes to deliver supplies and bring trade back from there, I see that bit of space as mainly the KNF playground unless they beg me to help them fight the BAF.

But what ever, this might be intresting:)
Good luck with your faction.
Actually I doubt this will happen as we plan on staying neutral in the Corsair and Outcast conflict, and since the time of this topics OP, we haven't had any problem with OPG, nor are we looking for any.
But the things will go unfriendly IMO. Why is that?
Becouse corsairs use to pirate in bretonia as well. And corsairs arent the faction which likes to share. Well anyhow, I'm not in position to talk for all npc faction. So let us see how the things will go in the future. Just think about, if corsairs some times blast other corsairs becosue they can't share, with bucaneers this could be much more agrresive.
And its not about OC/Corsair conflict, its becouse the Zone of Interest crosses.
(well everything is based on my personal view and personal expierence, Douh, I might be wrong)
