A threat to THEM not us.

Why do we have to go in and help save their hides?

Right. Alliances in the region have always been fluid, and the loyalty consistently goes to the highest bidder, either in treasure, land, or intangibles.

I am of the opinion that no matter which faction prevails, we will eventually face it in the future. Find out who is running short and airdrop small arms ammo. The situation will sort itself out.
