GALNET - 24 MAR 3308 - Rival Initiatives to Decide Reorte’s Future

Pilots’ Federation ALERT

Deliveries to the Reorte Mining Coalition or the Reorte Pro-Alliance League will help determine the system’s status.

The system’s controlling faction wishes to declare independence, in protest against Sirius Corporation’s proposed anti-xeno defence pact with the Alliance Defence Force.

The Reorte Mining Coalition’s CEO Fergus Cassidy announced:

“Prime Minister Mahon’s insistence on working with Sirius leads us to believe our interests are best served outside of the Alliance. To prepare for Reorte’s potential transition to an independent system, we ask for shipments of advanced medicines, skimmer components and building fabricators to be delivered to Davies High starport.”

It is expected that if Reorte Mining Coalition is successful, all systems currently under its governance would similarly be classified as independent.

Another faction in the system, the Reorte Pro-Alliance League, broadcast a statement in opposition by chief administrator Louisa Leblanc:

“Severing Reorte’s links with the Alliance over some misguided idealism would be hasty and short-sighted, given the Thargoid threat this pact is intended to prepare for. We believe that increasing supplies of advanced medicines, skimmer components and building fabricators will reassure the public of the benefits of membership.”

“The Alioth Independents faction has kindly provided a megaship, the Trobairitz, where pilots can deliver these commodities.”

Although Sirius Corporation is not officially involved with these competing initiatives, it is offering pre-engineered heat sink modules to independent pilots who make deliveries to the Trobairitz.

Let me fix this...

"The fact that Sirius Corporation has decided to get involved here should raise a lot of red flags to the rest of the Alliance."
I don't think anything wrong will happen if full military access is given to a giant megacorp, after trying to include them through a non democratic process.



Anyway, they know how to talk to the CMDR.
No reward vs good reward will make this CG very one sided.

I believe this might have something to do with the players involved with the Reorte Mining Coalition actually not wanting to leave the Alliance (perhaps the narrative was decided without involving them?).


My guess is that the decision to do the CG and carry on with this story was already taken, but the disparity in rewards was added in order not to pull the rug out from under the RMC players.

Or perhaps is just me trying to see an act of kindness, where the trend is self righteous griefing.

I think it's 2 fold :
-player tend to side with "the little guy". especially since Sirius is not very likeable (megacorp, shaddy deals). As seen with Fed vs independence. Or NMLA vs anti terrorists
-lots of Alliance players are actually active in the area and anti Sirius. They would likely have sided against Sirius backed Alliance.

To prevent a landslide against Sirius, AGAIN (as a reminder that's the second CG there for sirius vs RMC, and the last one Sirius lost), they make sure they win this time.


From the start it was either RMC leaves alliance, or they stay but they allow Sirius in.
 
Well, the relative merits of staying in are...

...Ooh, shiny! What will this new heatsink do?
Players when they hear of the cg :

Same players when they look at the rewards :

As it happens, despite the claim that freedom is invaluable, it's actually worth an engineered item.
 
They should stop pretending there is a choice and just tell us which way they want the story to go. This “storytelling” is very lame.
