I kind of like that independent industrialist Power, Li Yong-Rui. It seems to be a reasonably straight-up, no-nonsense outfit with a go-for-growth business flavour.
Unfortunately, if I align myself with an independent industrialist and then fly around spreading economic prosperity to all, I fear I'll currently be attacked by front line POLICE officers in various other Powers' spheres of influence... which is kind of immersion-smashing for me. It grates badly with my understanding of the way the Elite galaxy "should" work.
So I think I'll avoid pledging to any Power. If I don't press the "pledge" button, everything works sensibly, and my Elite world view built up over 30 years doesn't get its immersionfeels hurt.
So... not touching a Power... not while minor faction policemen fly around committing politically motivated murder without anyone batting an eyelid! :S
