Escalation through announcements

[vagrant thorn]

If I make an announcement about going for a certain company, publicly and repeatedly, do I need to initiate escalation with every individual ship of this company I come across?

I mean like you need to escalate for everyone, you have no IC reason to hate a certain company enough to want to kill everyone from it. This would be slop used to frag people on sight

Just cause you said “grrrrr I HATE atmosians ill- illl kill you all!!!” Doesn’t mean you get to KoS people or glass them without a reason

This.
You need to escalate and have reason for it for each individual ship.

Based on piracy precedent I think you can explode any ship you don’t like for any reason at all if you give the crew a chance to evacuate unharmed

If they have life support and either a jet pack + mass scanner OR a radio with medical and/or broadband they are not stranded

Unless that was recently changed

I didn't say I have no reason

Could be plenty of things

Rivalry, bounty, etc...

If you have a reason to want every single person in a company dead, for a company that ANYONE can join, I’d be surprised (ignoring whitelist companies)

You could be hired by the competition to do massive damage to its competitors

Or someone really spiteful
