We need a GMG Player faction. - Cawdor - 10-03-2008
Title says it all.
The GMG is a crucial part of this server's RP. We NEED it. So I would really appreciate if some people could make a step forward and start working on it. In case of a serious attempt, I'd chip in some 100 mil. There are some hobby-GMG pilots out there who actually do have some knowledge and could help building up a faction, but they mostly are to busy to lead it them selfs.

If we could add actual gas mining that might help. There certainly isn't a shortage of pirates to contend with in the Sigmas.

Indeed we do. My Freelancer worked for the GMG heavily in his earlier years, and in his RP, he was a big part of the company.
I also have a GMG executive in my stories.
Put shortly, if someone stepped up to the plate, I would seriously be right there with them all the way. I just don't think I have the experience to lead a faction.

there was a GMG faction for a long time, led by hattori.hanzo... i dont know why they fell apart.

I read that whole faction information post when I first joined. But I have never seen one actual GMG faction player online in all my time here.
Again, if someone will step up, I'll support it completely.

I am very interested in doing some mining. Very. I am hoping the mining issue will be fixed.
My knowledge on the faction is too limited atm but I'll change that and support a GMG faction.

On that thought as I'm reading about it. It would be an Epic task to clean up Sig 13 which GMG has a claim in. What would they have to protect themselves since they have most of their operations in the Border systems?

The ID allows up to battleships last I checked. They would have an awe-inspiring military force. They did beat the Rheinlanders back into a treaty to mostly their own benefit.
That said, starting up in S-13 would be uber hard. I'd suggest if we started the faction, we would need to base out of S-17's Ogashawa until we could really have the resources for S-13 and Naha.

yes, but they beat the rheinland fleet back with nothing but fighters and bombers. It isnt really in the GMG's RP to use heavy capships, they're supposed to be fighter aces who use the nebula and gas clouds to their advantage in combat.
They also have no capships of their own, just a heavy fighter and bomber right now (taiidan line). They are able to use the kusari explorer gunboat, as most of them were sold to the GMG after kusari upgraded to their new line of gunboat-class ships.
A zoner destroyer or two might be ok, since they're direct allies and the GMG is a fairly rich faction... but battleships? Last thing this mod needs is more people in battleships.
Other than the taiidan line, kusari explorer, and -maybe- zoner ships, you're stuck with the civilian or borderworlds fighter/bomber line.

True, I don't think they would use BSs. The ID just says it allows them.
But I think we could manage with a Military defense wing of Bombers and such. The Taidan is an excellent ship, and I think it gets a GMG skin in 4.85. (correct?)
Zoner ships could work as well. And the Explorer is very underused, it would be a good one. I think I'm one of the only handful that use it.
Also, on a side note, the GMG have their own BS turrets. Yeah.:wacko:
