We need a GMG Player faction.

Looks nice actually. For the most part GMG oughta be a Transport with a couple Bombers/Fighters at it's side. If the space is contaminated with Pirates that a wing of combatants could be dispatched to push em out for 4 hours.

The old GMG faction did quite well, with RP and pvp, and diplomacy between other factions.. The problem with this is that around once every two days, the OPG would fly into Sigma-13 with ~ 7 Gunboats, no exaggeration, and attack the GMG with no RP behind it whatsoever. Makes it worse that Corsairs inhabit the lower part of the system. The GMG gas miners are among Outcast territory in Sigma-13, but OPG GB-spammed the GMG constantly. Thats why they eventually had BSs and Cruisers when they had started with only VHFs and bombers..

I sincerely hope this does NOT happen again, and also would be glad to see a new GMG faction rise up.. I might even join it, at least until its off the ground. Heh, maybe I can even convince the old GMG faction leader to come back and help, or lead a new GMG faction for a second try.

dab, are you talking about that poor GMG that hunted every time my single gunboat with 2-3 bombers,+their flagship battlestar ??? and their lovely tactic was fly to yanagi and open fire with words: cleaning sigma from criminals??? (maybe my failure, because when i meet single fighter or bomber from them, i let him alive)

If you're making this a reality, please don't make the mistakes of the old GMG faction - No Battlestars, Rheinland Cruisers or any similar "stolen/salvaged" ships ... Not cool.

Forget the Albatross completely. I don't feel like dealing with any complaints. I wouldn't whore it, and I thought a flagship would fit the GMG, but really, just forget it.

And please don't turn this into a mutual bashing of the old GMG. They made mistakes, we'll be careful not to make an encore show.


EDIT: Hey guys, if you'll give me character pics if you have them. You get a GMG patch to make them look offyshul.:P

One thing you should think about is... Who will you fight?
Sure RP is important, but a faction can only survive if there's enough PVP to keep things interesting. Unless you've got a band of dedicated hardcore RPers who are satisfied with roleplaying as miners/gastransporters and their escorts, you should consider these questions.

As the GMG who'll you kill?
Will fighting off pirates attacking your convoys be enough?
Will you police Sigma 13 to keep it free of all piracy?

Sig 13, 19 59 and the little piece of Honshu is GMG sovereign whose independance is guarded enough that they won against Rheinland and Kusari has so far decided to not contest it. I have just finnished moving all the SS shots to photobucket, Relevant info will be put into a description

Good points, Mule.

The Corsairs and Outcasts will be hostile to the Miners, and will be forcefully dealt with to vacate the system. The GMG have a bit of a vendetta against the Corsairs as it stands, due to the artifact trade dying to GMG hand. The rest will be simple protection of Sigma space, which will be quite a bit of work. That said, the GMG don't care what happens to traders in system not of GMG rank, so we will by no means be a kindly lawful peacekeeping force.

An addition: A Samura faction is in the works, and due to their involvement in the mining of H3 in Hokkaido, we very well might wage strikes against our only serious competitor.

Thoughts on this?

[ProwlerPC]

Well that would be good. Start a series of RP for surrounding factions since both hire others to do dirty work
