Faction Idea, Looking for Opinions, Advice, and Potential Interest - Sylvie557 - 06-05-2011 ((I know I already posted a topic about the Corona Battlegroup another research based faction but I am not actually the leader, just helping the leader get it started. I was inspired by this idea due to recently buying Jinkusu (Yeah yeah, I am a capwhore =P) to RP a mobile research base and Freeport and thought it would be and interesting idea to start up a zoner research group If it seems like it people don't think it is a good idea or it gets absolutely no interest I will just let it go but I thought I would see what people think. I also know this prolly won't get a ton of members due to it primarily focusing on RP but I am really just looking for a small group but if it does somehow grow to a decent size I will be happy too. Also, this is just a rough draft and it subject to change.)) -=The Omicron Research Fleet=- Affiliation: Zoners ID: Zoner/Zoner Guard Goals: To further the general knowledge of Zoners as a whole, research the Nomad threat, and to collaborate with other research groups throughout Sirius to help further technology as a whole. History: The Omicron Research Fleet is a newly formed and independently funded organization that was started by Dr. Yar Harris, son of elusive and recently deceased billionaire Donald Harris, who used his significant inheritance to fund the construction of a Jinkusu class Zoner Juggernaut named The Wandering Star to act as a both a staging post for his research and as a mobile Freeport due to his respect for his Zoner heritage and as part of the agreement allowing him to purchase the Jinkusu. As of right now, there is very few ships other than The Wandering Star in the fleet but Dr. Harris is currently recruiting scientists throughout the Zoner and general Sirian population. Allowed Ships =Fighters/Bombers= Used for individual or very small group exploration or experimentation//Escorting lightly armed exploration and science vessels//Experimentation in house space//Dimplomacy with other factions when capital ship sized vessels are not welcome Eagle Class Ships Border World Class Ships Arrow - Civilian Light Interceptor Marauder - Civilian Heavy Fighter Kingfisher - Civilian Heavy Fighter Moldy Crow Charon -Civilian Very Heavy Fighter Raven's Talon - Very Heavy Fighter Virage - Civilian Very Heavy Fighter Havok Mk II - Civilian Bomber Waran - Civilian Bomber =Freighters/Transports= Primarily used to bring supplies, experiments, and other items of importance between ships and stations//Can be modified to be used as a science vessel Camara - Civilian Freighter Border Worlds Transport Pelican - Armored Transport Titanic - Civilian Heavy Tanker Zoner Borderworld Transport 'Whale'(Not reccomended for use in Omicron Systems inhabited by Nomads due to lack of defensive systems unless escorted) =Small/Medium Exploration Vessels= Used for exploration a scientific research in house, border, edge, indpendent, and omicron systems Spatial - Deep Space Explorer. X-Shuttle - Deep Space Civilian Shuttle Zoner Conference Gunboat(Modified for exploration and scientific used, may only use Zoner, Basic, and Solaris Gunboat Turrets to prevent others from thinking it is a war vessel) Ahoudori - Kusari Explorer(May only use Zoner, Basic, and Solaris Gunboat Turrets to prevent others from thinking it is a war vessel) //Will ask permission from Kusari Government before using =Large Exploration Vessels= Used for exploration a scientific research in border, edge, and omicron systems and must ask permission before entering House Space//Must only use Zoner, Basic, or Solaris Cruiser Turrets for self defense Corvo - Zoner Deep Space Explorer Fearless - Zoner Destroyer(Modified for research and exploration use) =Massive Exploration Vessels Used for exploration a scientific research in border, edge, and omicron systems and must ask permission before entering House Space//Staging grounds for other research vessels//Must only use Zoner, Basic, or Solaris Battleship Turrets for self defense//Need special permission from the Omicron Research and Exploration Fleet High Councol or Dr. Yar Harris to fly) Aquilon - Zoner Carrier(Modified for research and exploration use) //Will ask TAZ for docking rights at Pueblo Bonito for purchasing Jinkusu - Zoner Juggernaut(Is also considered a mobile Freeport and must be willing to accept strangers as well as members of the fleet) Faction Idea, Looking for Opinions, Advice, and Potential Interest - Omicron - 06-05-2011 You can join Omicroners and do research under 'Croners banner. And access to some fine tech could help. Faction Idea, Looking for Opinions, Advice, and Potential Interest - Sylvie557 - 06-06-2011 Yeah I could but aren't the Omicroners all about zoner only interests (Might be wrong on this but it is just my understanding lol)? Well this group is more about advancing tech for Sirius as a whole, even if Zoners are a priority focus. Also, another of my characters is in OSI and since they are kind of rivals it just feels kind of wrong joining both of them xD... still might consider it if my plans fall though. Faction Idea, Looking for Opinions, Advice, and Potential Interest - Ingenious - 06-06-2011 I would make this all about research and zoner ID jointly. Myself being a physics major in real life, I personally love trading and roleplaying my researcher character. However, you can't own capships on researchers, so I would use researcher id for your smaller crafts and transports and zoner/zoner guard for the heavier things. That way, you get the researcher and the zoner thing. It might be worthwhile to add that Researcher ID'd vessels can land on all lawful bases, while Zoner Guard Whales can't. (If you want to know any good routes for researcher ID to make money for your faction, ask me.) Faction Idea, Looking for Opinions, Advice, and Potential Interest - Sylvie557 - 06-06-2011 Yeah I was thinking about doing a dual ID thing with researcher being on the smaller crafts but I hadn't decided yet. What are other people opinions on having a faction(I know it is unofficial but I am trying to make it be as accepted as possible) with two IDs. Would also be cool because then I wouldn't need to get permission to use the Kusari Explorer and we could use Luxury Liners which I don't think zoners or zoner guards can. Faction Idea, Looking for Opinions, Advice, and Potential Interest - Sylvie557 - 06-07-2011 I guess I probably won't go through with this since it doens't seem to be getting much interest. |
