The Mollys + Post #109. - Govedo13 - 06-22-2011
I know Jack. Please tell to your guys not to shoot. I already done it with my guys. I will need time to discuss it and to come up with new treaty and stuff, give us a couple of days. I will try to act as mediator between all sides.
For a ZoI issues- Avalanche said that we wont go in 0 47- we have nothing to do there- it is clearly out of our ZoI
As for O-5 we also wont make [RF] Gamma Like raids there , but occasionally go there in order to help our ally the Hessians will exist, I dont think that couple of molly ships helping the Hessians in large scale battle will be problem from any of the sides in-RP it is np and OORP it should be, as I said dont expect that 10 Scylla cruisers will help 10 RF/RHA fighters to ride Gamma- this wont happen.
It is full in Molly RP to shoot corsairs and to help their ally,we are aware what the Mollys and that they dont have the resources of the Hessians and the Corsairs.
Avalanche PC is broken at this time and he have a lot of RL Issues at the moment so please dont rush with anything we have the time to solve all the problems.

Naming convention, should we go with [M]-Full.Name or like the LR- & IND, go with witty, humorous titles?

You should go with Full name or Callsign. Witty humorous titles don't suit one freedom fighter. They suit criminals like LR and IND.

I agree, names would be more fitting than callsigns or titles.
The Mollys + Post #109. - Govedo13 - 06-22-2011
As for now everybody use names, I also will when I start the RP for my character.

I think names are more fitting, but sometimes callsigns could work, especially to denote a certain rank. I dunno about you guys, but using song titles is always a favorite of mine, and with the Mollys I would say going with Flogging Molly, Dropkick Murphy or Pogues song names would be awesome.
EDIT: Some good ones...
[M]-Seven.Deadly.Sins
[M]-Cruel.Mistress
[M]-Swagger
[M]-Drunken.Lullabies
[M]-Sentimental.Johnny
[M]-The.Wanderlust
That's from Flogging Molly, I got all of their stuff, don't have as much from the Pogues and Dropkick Murphies. Also, this is nitpicking, but I don't like the tag that much. You may want to explore other options. M| M- M) I dunno... just one letter makes me think "mercenary" not "Molly."

The following in this reply post is submitted by Avalanche, but designed, thought of & detailed by Zapp.
Feedback on the idea of it existing please:
The Wild Geese
ID: [color=#99FF99]Mercenary
IFF: Molly
Tag: Name|WG
History
The history of the Wild Geese goes back to old Earth-that-was, when exiled Irish armies were sold out to the continental armies as mercenary units. The Treaty of Limerick disbanded the defeated Jacobite army, and the soldiers were given the choice to serve in France. The English Crown also wanted certain Irish soldiers and mercenaries dealt with, and they were moved to the mainland as well. Fortune seekers swelled the ranks, and the Flight of the Wild Geese became known as a movement of Irish soldiers and mercenaries for hire.
Enter 818 AS, thousands of years later in a distant star system.
With the rise and fall of such powers as the Union of Gold, Molly Republic, and Molly Separatists, certain capable individuals in the Molly movement realized exactly how bad the situation for the Mollys was. Freedom of Dublin had always been the goal. But supplies were scarce, and with a war looming that threatened not only Bretonia but the Molly separatist movement as well, some people began to think that the goals should change.
Eamon O'Malley was the first man to voice this idea with any volume. Respected and old enough to gain support, he proposed the formation of a mercenary wing to export something other than their prized Dublin gold, something that had been perfected over several years of guerrilla fighting and lightning raids: violence. Certain men joined for personal profit, some for fame, some to see more of Sirius than just the orange system of Dublin and its surrounding systems. The stated reason that the Wild Geese was formed for, however, was to not only generate a new source of income for the Molly movement as a whole, but to foster new relations with other factions.

Ships & Tech
[The following list will grow with tech permissions granted. Links to permissions will be provided as they are given.]
- All Civilian tech
- BW tech (Sabre, Switchblade, Scimitar)
- All Molly tech*
*Molly tech defined as Trefoils & Dublin Dusters, the Pirate line up to and including the Rogue Gunboat, and Molly Gunboat turrets.
Diplomacy
Allied
Mollys
Friendly
Our contractors. Empty for now. Likely people will include the Rogues, Hackers, Hessians, IMG. Other organizations that have no direct contact with Mollys will be approached as well.
Neutral
People who aren't our contractors, but whom we don't hunt. Zoners, most likely.
Unfriendly
People we're paid to blow up, but it's not personal. Blowing up Liberty Navy for the Rogues or Hackers would be an example. The Mollys aren't enemies with them, but we're paid to fight them.
Hostile
People we're paid to blow up, and it's personal. Bretonian corporations, BAF, BPA, Kusari corporations, KNF, Corsairs... all apply here.

Rank Structure
You want ranks? Go join the army. We have the leader, Eamon O'Malley, and everyone else. Everyone has an equal vote on matters. Eamon negotiates contracts and handles PR. In the event of Eamon's death or resignation, the other members vote on his successor.
How do we handle things such as ship-class and weapon restrictions? Excellent question! Each member gets a full pick of the armory. Weapon stocks on things such as gunboats and gunboat cannons are more limited than things like Werewolves, though.
The Mollys + Post #109. - Primitive - 06-23-2011
I say use molly ID as well. (since it CAN collect bounties) and you currently don't have means to acces Molly tech unless its granted by official faction which you still aren't.
Overall- love the idea.
