I'd like to point out a severe roleplay problem with this proposal: Enemies trade with each other all the time.
Imagine if you will that Be'Nary Broggan needs rubbarn and his guild owns a tekorn OP. Wile Saracini really wants to equip his elite melee troops with tekorn weapons and owns a rubbarn OP. Each of them have enough allies that any attempt to take the other's OP is likely to fail. Do you really think that they are not going to work out a temporary truce to each get what they want?
It could be a most amazing RP setup, complete with the necessity of suppressing the hot-heads on each side to benefit the whole of each guild.
