' Wrote:Woah, getting complex now. Kay, I'll weave that into the Zoner-lore somehow.
Edit: Oh man, no more zoners-are-the-most-powerful-faction? Daaaamn... but can they at least have some sort if heavily armed/armored transport? After all, they are living at the edge of known space and if they only fly freighters and below, no one will play them.
Remember that the players that will manage them will have rights to decide over the faction. They will make the history for that faction with their RP.
IE: I'm the leader of the Zoners, I make a deal with the IMG for some blueprints of a capital ship. Then I ask a 3D mod to create a model, add some RP how the Zoners got it, and we toss it into the game.
This is still a basic concept. We want to make space look more... unfriendly.

I got a feeling that this will appear before 4.86:lol:

Oh, the factions can decide that much? So basically, the Zoners could evolve from a small, underpowered group to a large mighty faction a la (]o[) / OSI?
Edit: Kay, your edit explained that. And really, so far this AU seems really dark and mean.

Oh right, sorry for the CR Mao.
Tau-44 now is a rich mineral system mined by the IMG (south) and from Samura (north). :P

Yes. That's what we want.
Every faction, every house, will start de-powered down respect to how they are drawn in DiscoveryGC.
Of course, the players need to respect several borders set to balance everything in the game.

Ok...while thinking....
ZSZ of Texas:
The Zero Safety Zone in Texas is the only non-irradiated area within the system that is under the protection of the Liberty Navy. Standing guard is the Battleship Durango, a grom sentinel stationed at the ZSZ to defend one of the only ways into New York. The ZSZ also has the Liberty Navy Hospital Ship Bruce Perry, the Libefty equivalent of the Wihelm Gustloff. The ZSZ is the most heavly guarded area area besides Zone 21. Navy patrols are heavy, and medical vessels are always present, ready to dart into save pilots.
Zone 21:
Since the defeat of the Order, The Liberty Navy moved the Battleship New Mexico to defend the highly classified area. Under attack day after day, the New Mexico is the one place no recruit wishes to be stationed at.
Alaska:
Juneau Shipyard, Fairbanks, and Mitchell, have been eradicated. Kodiak survives only because of the LSF's Dreadnought/Spyglass, the Tyranny. Kodiak is the last bastion within the desolate Alaska system. It is the only place besides the New Mexico that any Navy recruit fears to be assigned, as the LSF takes any new recruit to reinforce Kodiak.
Ellesmere(if there):
Defended by the Tyrannical and Tyrannic, two dreadnoughts, Ellesmere whethers attacks that the crew of the New Mexico and Kodiak would die of terror at. Despite this, Ellesmere stays firmly within Liberty's grasp.
Quick lore I thought up before church. Short, but a start while on a smartphone. Thoughts?
Notes: names are placeholders. And I was tempted to call the Liberty Hospital Ship the Leonard McCoy:crazy:

Actually, ZSZ, while it stands for Zero Safety Zones (there isn't only one ZSZ, Texas is full with them), are highly irradiated zones in Texas, they are only battlefields, they aren't safe.
The Spyglass, from out alternate lore, wasn't stolen by the Lane Hackers, and it's a stationary base for the LSF.
Ellesmere will have the same things that it has on Discovery®, only with some tweaks, and of course, the large ammount of rads.

' Wrote:seriously man, let the order die.
no. i have a better idea. let the nomads die. that way both factions pop.
' Wrote:- The Nomads are the main threat now.
- The Zoners are having a hard time against the Nomads, and against House Governments
Just have the Nomads leave Sirius behind, all mysterious-like.
By the looks of it, your mod won't have anyone that actually knows anything about the Nomads, or able to pull off a decent Nomad faction.
They're old news, just let the Nomads go bro.
The Order Remnant can then decide what they wanna do.

I was wondering why the hell they would've moved the Missouri down there...

Why the name LNU, and not LNS? It stands for Liberty Naval Unit.
Why the name LNHS Solace, and not Bruce Perry? See this.

Why the instagib areas (D:) ? Space is a lot more dangerous now, explore at your own risk.
