We have been playing with the Freelance trade ID for several months now,
opening connections and roleplaying as a new mix.
ZoI = Zone of Influence in wich a faction is commited to follow specific rules differing from a *all over Sirius* use.
Like in Junker case.
Checked in wiki :
Generic IDs have no restrictions on Zone of Interest, however have others restrictions, such as smaller cargo space, prohibition to freely engage targets to balance this freedom. ( Freelance ID for excemple )
Junker ID can demand cargo and credits from ships outside of Rheinland, Liberty and Bretonian house space, and attack them if they do not comply.
Can actively hunt Xenos and Hogosha anywhere and in case of JM| does so.
And can use transports up to 4,300 cargo.
So the Junker ID has a specific ZoI we do not wish to use,
and a specific combat allowance and a specific rep with other groups we do not wish to use.
We do wish to use Junker ship lines up to 3600 cargo, and "we" see us as Junker community mixed with Freelance traders to form something new.
Tinkers is a non-generic ID tailored to fit the style of play I described in the faction info.
We opt to build a specific rephack representing this, and are still working on diplomacy.
