Sharpe's Rifles anyone?
You're doing it wrong mate.
You're supposed to disband and quit, disco is dead.
The QCP disbanded this morning I think?

No, I meant that we fully plan to do them but they haven't happened yet. It's kinda hard to plan events with people whom you can't tell that you'll even be fighting them. With this block of info out for all to see, perhaps we can start seriously planning events.

When this comes out I am totally firing up my bret characters more. Hopefully others feel the same way and actually wish to participate.
lets get some character development for the Hessians too! Maybe we could declare war on britonia.... ohh wait.

Man, IMG is always gettin squashed in the middle of everything.
*runs off to offer Council assistance to the BAF, and to edit new trade run due to Shetland moving*
Sounds good though, maybe for something on the other side of Sirius?
Or higher cargo'd ships maybe?

Which reminds me, what's the status of the Liberty/Bretonia alliance-y-thing? Will I be able to take my LN cruiser to Bretonia to aid the Bretonian refugees in fleeing from Gallia? Also, if I can do so, will GRN gunboat captains complain if my cruiser beats them up while letting the Bretonians escape?

As part of the new update, all ships will be able to go anywhere to fight anyone without restrictions.
All sarcasm aside, I don't understand why everyone is complaining about Bretonia. The Kusari-based players should be the ones with the most complaining to do, as their activity will likely plummet with the war finished.
Also, where are the Gaians supposed to go?
As for the storyline itself, it seems it was made to encourage Gallic activity by giving the Gallics half of Sirius. It seems to me that they would have trouble steamrolling Bretonia, Kusari, the Council, and the Outcasts at the same time, and taking control of an entire sector of space (Tau) in one year. I would have preferred the development to go slowly, but we would have arrived here anyway.
Finally, there's the issue of balance. Are weapons going to be rebalanced so that Gallics and non-Gallics have an equal footing? And more importantly, how long does it take to kill a Gallic battleship with three Challengers?
On the bright side, this isn't Same Old Wars Part XIX and Igiss stuck his neck out to try something different. Perhaps it will work.

I understand that Gallia forces are more powerful than the other four houses but they aren't 'OMGZ R SUPER HUMANZ' they can be defeated and IF Kusari/Bretonia fight together I can see Gallia being quite easily being pushed back, and also Liberty/Rhienland way also see this and assist Kusari/Bretonia. Gallia is the same size house as the other four and they have a larger pirate situation. I don't see how they could pull this off for long.
Just me.

Actually, this might lead to Kusari characters actually playing in Kusari. Which is like, desperately needed. XD

Meh Gallian Weapons can stay as good as they want. No matter how good thier BS can be, bombers can shred it.

I don't know why people are concerned with fights. I'm sure it won't effect the storyline. It never did. If it did then it would be a lot lot different. I'm gonna be on bretonia side collecting French white flags. :lol:
