The Landwirtrechtbewegung (Stuttgart Farmer's Union)

Proposal open for business. ~ Xoria
Landwirtrechtbewegung, LWB|

The LWB, or Landwirtrechtbewegung (farmers' rights movement), is believed to be engaged in attacks on Synth Foods operations and sympathetic government officials in retaliation for Rheinland concessions to the Liberty Food conglomerate. This faction is a faithful ally of the Hessians, therefore considered hostile by the Corsairs. However, the LWB attempts not to interfere into the war between Corsairs and Outcasts and stay neutral towards groups that joined either alliance.

Naming convention: LWB|Name.Surname

Back story:





Since 775 AS, the LWB has been fighting the Liberty conglomerate, and the government that was corrupt enough to sell their own people, for the purpose of getting their home back. The war was stepped up 40 years ago, as the farmers had had enough, sending out strike forces from their secret depot in the Ostnebel. The main target of their attacks was Synth Foods moving their food supplies, as well as ALG transports assisting Synth Food's transformation of the once-proud planet. Since the attacks began, the Rheinland Federal Police and Military have been a constant cause of fear for the guerilla-farmers, as their superior weaponry, ships, and training have given them the distinct advantage when the LWB's hit-and-fade tactics have gone awry.

The LWB quickly realized that to survive, they too would need equipment, ships, and most importantly training. To gain this, they attached themselves to the Red Hessians, who were in neighboring (via a jump hole a short distance from Darmstadt) Dresden, who had been fighting their own personal war against Dauman for a long time. Happy for an ally to at least distract Military and Police forces, the Hessians were happy to invest in the upstart criminal faction. At first, only a few of the veteran Hessians were stationed on Darmstadt to help the new pilots learn to fly. After awhile, the LWB started producing aces; these became the first generation of a new breed of pilot. Dedicated to the defense of the LWB in general as their main goal, rather than the ousting of Synth Foods from their homeland (which still is a major, secondary goal), these pilots would die to defend both their brethren and homeland.

Objectives:

In order of importance.

• Ousting of Synth Foods conglomerate from Stuttgart and restoration of homeland
  
• Defense of LWB holdings (Saar, Ostnebel, and to a lesser extent all of Stuttgart)
  
• Defense of Hessian allies
  
• Piracy for monetary support of above objectives
  
• Mounting offensives on LWB enemies
  

Allowed ships/equipment:

Light Fighters: Hawk, Griffin, Loki (limited), Tiger Shark (for Aces only, acquired from the IMG through our Hessian allies)

Heavy Fighters: Falcons

Zone of Influence:

Rheinland:

Stuttgart - It's ours by right, and we'll take it back through any means necessary. This is our main ZoI

New Berlin - Where the dogs that sold us make their lair and the most populated place in Rheinland. An ideal place for exemplary strikes and propaganda.

Hamburg - Another populated area of Rheinland and a staging point for the RM's operations in the border worlds. A prime place for exemplary strikes and popaganda.

Frankfurt - Our friends the Bunschuh are here, and we will occasionally stop by the say hello and scare the locals.

Dresden - Our primary allies, the Hessians, base themselves here. We pass through here quite often and it is a fine staging point for strikes into New Berlin.

Saar - Our secret stronghold. Any LWB is welcome there to outfit him or herself and to stage more attacks against Synth Foods and their allies.

The Omegas - If we're setting up, or helping our Hessian friends on a special occasion, we'll be here. On no regular basis, though, will we be traipsing into the Omegas. Anything done here will be under the supervision of the Hessians and will be with their cooperation.

The Sigmas - Under no normal circumstances are members of the LWB allowed to enter Sigma-13 or any of the Sigmas, the only exceptions being special events and setting up.


Rules:

1. Follow all the Sirius Rules /Server Rules).
- Anyone breaking the rules will be issued a warning and demotion, if possible. A second report of a breach in rules will result in dismissal.

2. Stick to our ZoI. If you are not within our Zone of Influence in regular circumstances, you shouldn't be there.

3. Always Roleplay in system chat. If you are talking OOC in system chat, before you send that message, think about if it is necessary. If it isn't, say it in Private or local, or don't say it. If it is, make sure you mark it with OOC marks and screenshot it just in case you are accused of something.

[12:49:19 AM] Elgatodiablo: You know its nice that you have all that proof and all, Bacon... but I just don't believe you.

[Zapp]

Yeah, Turkish is supposed to be making the ZOI maps, but it's been so long that we've decided to just release it and put the ZOI maps in later. As stated, money is on the [BLS]-Miranu , my trader.

Normal LWB has "|LWB" after their names. LWB guard has [LWB].

[Dopamino]

I've always preferred having the tags at the beginning of the names. Otherwise it's a huge pain in the @$$ to find your friends and call for help.

Edit: ^ That's a request to put the tags at the beginning, por favor. ^

I mostly lurk around Media Center these days.

Note to Baconsoda: sorry, there's a wrong link. The one to a possible FA 'mutual-benefit pact' isn't that one, it's this one. My bad.

Yeah, I wrote most of this, with input from Baconsoda, Gronath, Niezck, and Blodo. And Dusty Lens, some.

I would like to know what sort of sign I need to hang around my neck to get people to pay the 500 million credit fee BEFORE they post in the Faction Creation forum.
Asking nicely with multiple pinned threads is obviously not working.

Xoria: And how, pray tell, is that supposed to be done? Messaging before posting? Nobody had a problem before with just posting the name of the character with the money on it in the request post itself, neither was it written anywhere that all of a sudden you have to PM an admin with cash for the proposal before actually posting it...

Just to remind:

Money is on: [BLS]-Miranu
