Hey! I wanna Aussie sleeper ship too!!
(Oh all right, we'll let the Kiwis on as well.... a few of them)
</:crazy:>
Seriously.... if you wanna create a new NPC faction, it's *alot* of work, both mechanically in the game and RP-wise.
And remember, the faction name will not show up in radio chatter. Neither will any of their bases. As long as you're happy with:
"This is lambda-12. I'm a trader from , moving oxygen to ."

I say the scots and the irish made their own, very very busty sleepership. They Called it the "Sco-noyoubluddybugger-Irel-i'llkillyougood-land" And it crashed in dublin last week.
Seriously, this isn't a TC mod.

I just want to add a pirate faction... I don't want a total conversion.
Besides, can't you just disable the radio chatter? If they tell you to drop your cargo, the screen pops up anyways. If you hail them, nothing happens because it's disabled, and if a station tells them to submit their designation, well they wont respond.
I'm willing to do the work to assemble a first and surname database, as well as learn to model so I can create ships and projectile graphics for new weapons.

Screw all that, secretly the Quebeceurs made their own ship, and now contorl the Tau's. easy peasy. their enemies are the Albertan faction:lol:
even better, the corsairs are really the secret canadian faction.
while we are at it why not make an african faction too 8-) .
it is easy ,disco is to enhance vanilla not suddenly make a whole new game.

I'm not suggesting to make an entirely new game...
just INSTITUTE AN NPC FACTION BESIDES THOSE THAT WERE IN VANILLA!!!

but it wil lrequire lots of coding, and manufaturing od systems bases pl,anets, ships, history, rumours, plus addition to vanilla. also ithe backstory doesnt seem that pluasible/

I agree with olsav. It would take considerable time and effort to do something like that and Im not sure Igiss wants too. If you and any others are up to the task and think they can do it, the go a head. Make the WHOLE thing yourself. Then submit it to Igiss ans see what he says.
But I think if there was going to be another faction, we would all look at some of the most prime current day candidaites and work on a backstory and stuff like that.

*cough* most people tend not to admit being from there.
The Problem is, the chinese were coalition. Thusly, why the heck would they have a sleeper ship, or indeed any desire to come to the sirius sector?
