The Guilds continued success comes at a price however, as most trustworthy individuals find themselves fighting in the wars. The need for security on the homefront was only further increased as the houses of Bretonia and Liberty had to devote resources formerly used to police their own borders against foreign invasion. ![]() ![]() This comes from increased bounties placed on the heads of pirates and other unlawfuls from the governments and its corporations. With constant wars around the majority of Sirius and the navies of the various Houses spread thin the Guild has seen even more profits in its endeavors. However, with the influx of credits from the new Bretonian bounty markets, the Guild was able to expand yet again, moving wings into the deep Omegas, as well as purchasing large parts of both Sheffield and Deshima stations, in order to control localised operations. Subsequent attempts to expand into Rheinland and Kusari were met with mixed results, as both houses were much more suspicious of outsiders than Bretonia had been, especially Kusari. The Guild quickly decided that Bretonia, which was undergoing a period of unrest, would be the best place to set up shop in, and before long, Guild ships were to be found throughout Bretonia, yet again turning a huge profit, capitalising on unprepared pirates who were unfamiliar with the tactics the Guild employed. The Guild began losing more and more ships, and more and more pirates were slipping through their traps, leading to a fall in profits, and the feeling throughout the Guild that they should look to expanding into the other houses, all of which were facing their own crime problems. Of course this could not last forever, and pirates began to wise up to Guild tactics, learning to avoid ambushes and escape from the lanes before they had a chance of being caught. This enabled the Guild to expand at a furious pace, soon having ships stationed on every station and space-port in Liberty, bringing in vast amounts of money. The first Guild spacecraft were little more than a single wing of retired Liberty Navy fighters, but it soon became clear that hunting pirates in space was infinitely more profitable than hunting them planet-side, as Guild profits sky-rocketed. This gave a few enterprising pirate gangs the opportunity to make immense profits very easily, which in turn meant the Guild now turned to space to seek out greater profits. The greatest jump, however, came with the advent of high speed trade lanes, which vastly increased the flow of interplanetary, and interstellar travel. From these humble beginnings, the Guild slowly grew, eventually becoming a major part of Houston's law enforcement system. ![]() The Bounty Hunters Guild as an organisation began on Planet Houston, the exact date is unknown due to the fact that when founded, it was no more than a handful of bounty hunters who sought to band together to take on bigger gangs and split the profits. ![]()
