' Wrote:Joining the official factions is always better. But if done right you WILL be able to open up an unofficial faction. Just don't cause trouble and establish your "faction" a bit, before bringing out the big guns and declaring yourself independ from the official faction. Best would be, if you did your own thing, but didn't cause trouble by doing so. Most newly created unofficial factions caused trouble to the already established "political" stuff the official factions were doing without caring for consequences. This is bad. Very bad. Remember, iRP you are still just a small part of the official faction's faction.
Freelancer ID? Mhh...Depends what you want to do.
Calling it "Nazi Rheinland"? I thought it could be interesting to have an opposing unlawful force in Rheinland. Something Anti-Communistic, if you get what I mean. But that doesn't have to be "Nationalsozialistisch" (Nazi). Also it would still be ok to have a "nationalistische" (nationalistic) group etc. At the end ... just leave Nazis out of the game. You don't have to call it "Nazi" if you just want to represent some aspects of what you thought might have been nice besides the really bad stuff they did back then.
And ... keep in mind, being a "Nazi" in Germany is still against the law.
If you as a faction have to do exactly what the official faction does, there ain't no point in starting your own faction. Rather be an Indie or join the official faction itself.
Generic IDs are the only IDs that give you almost free reign within role-play. The only problem of course is that there are no caps.

Well, you could also ask the official faction if they are ok with it, when you act differently. You just have to make those you interact with clear, that you aren't acting in the name of the whole faction, but only for your unofficial faction.

Well, here's the thing: although the literal meaning of Wehrmacht doesn't lend itself to the literal meaning of Nazi, the fact the the Wehrmacht was only called by that name during the nazi regime & at no other time in history...that forever links them both together in the collective pop culture mind to this day.
Basically, you're better off not mimicking anything from that specific era in Germany's history on server no matter how innocent the original intent, because it'll just cause bad mojo.
