I'll spare you all the build up unless anyone's interested but in the last session of my game Horizon took a huge hit that may well lead to them losing AAA status or even going under.
Basically I've gone off-canon on this, in my world Horizon set themselves up initially with a lot of brainwashing, and conditioning and through a series off assasinations and shadowruns that got them as big as they are and onto the Corporate Council. This has just been discovered by everyone thanks to one of my PCs who's an investigative journalist for KSAF. His uncovering of what happened has been a thread running through the entire campaign so far, it's not been a few small events. The other AAAs and nations (California, Pueblo and the Tir) that took the hits that Horizon exploited to get to the top will be properly torqued at them but I'm not sure how much the fallout should be.
I want to have them taken down a load of pegs and off the AAA list. Their security personnel are currently very compromised as a result of their conditioning that can now be exploited if you know how so they'll be easy picking for a heap of runs... and I imagine there will be a lot of revenge and opportunistic runs.
Can anyone give some helping pointers of what they think reaction might be to this and how badly they could really be hit as they're a AAA and will have a whole heap of resources? What kind of punishments or restrictions can the corporate court put on them?
