Mercenary Sanctuary Act

a piece of legislation put in place 900ABO after a string of corrupt double-crossings leads to untold numbers of mercenary deaths. In conjunction with the newly introduced Strata Carrier vessel, mercenaries in the field are given some degree of safe haven, wherein they can refuel and recuperate with minimal hazard. Any law-abiding organization that violates such sanctuary is given hefty fines, proportionate to damage incurred.
