We need a GMG Player faction.

[pieguy259]

Good to know. That seems like an idiotic action, but either way: We wouldn't do that.

If anything, we would be hostile to Samura coming into the Sigmas. But would generally ignore them otherwise. That seems to fit the GMG's RP anyways.

I'm off for the night. Hope to work with you all soon.

There might be a bit of a problem with not allowing Samura through the Sigmas: if that happened, they'd only ever be able to trade with Liberty.

• They can't go to Bretonia, for obvious reasons.
  
• They wouldn't be able to get to Rheinland through the Sigmas.
  
• I doubt Liberty would let them into Rheinland through their space.
  

So Samura would get all agitated and we might see Samura numbers plummet. Which would be spectacular for the GMG in-RP, but not so good for the RP itself. Perhaps the GMG should allow them through (at the "insistence" of the Kusari Naval Forces), but make it perfectly clear that Samura's on their own when it comes to the pirate problem?

The GMG hires who to do their dirty work? For the most part, from what I can tell, they are fairly self reliant, aside from the ALG and Junkers cleaning up their mess. I suppose that's what you meant though. I do believe the GMG are getting tired of the garbage scavenger's presense, that could make for future RP.



Eh, I just stuck the border on quick.


EDIT: Good point, pieguy. Allowment of Samura passage could be worked out. But we would keep some irked RP at them crossing through.

[Tenacity]

The GMG wont openly attack samura, that's what caused the whole mess with the last GMG faction - they declared hostility against a samura trader, told him he couldnt go through sigma 13, and it sparked a conflict between the GMG and the kusari navy/hogosha/FA.

More likely, GMG would 'tip off' the blood dragons and possibly the golden C as to where a samura transport is, so that they can take it out.

Also, GMG will have a huge role in 4.85, with the new economy (Beta testing has its bonuses)

We're making this now, so we can get a jump start, but our purposes will be for all of the above reasons.


Also, we can promise our caps will never exceed 4 in number, or larger than a GB, unless Orin follows through with his Albie

[ProwlerPC]

The GMG uses the Blood Dragons, this is a result from post war written in wiki....

The eighth century would also mark a period of increasingly difficult relations between the Guild and Samura Industries, who not only would stoically accept the Kusari government's war reparation tax put on the Guild after the defeat of the Rheinlanders, but would be trying to push down the H-Fuel price even further so as to finance their own gas mining project in Hokkaido. Convinced that Samura is abusing and exploiting their agreement, the GMG would finally agree to secretly finance Blood Dragon operations in Hokkaido, in order to stop the H-Fuel mining project there. To further aid the Dragons in their engagement, GMG veteran fighter pilots would pass on their experience in nebula engagements to the revolutionaries. This would allow Dragon fighters to turn circles around the Kusari Navy in both Hokkaido and Honshu, and conduct strikes with more precision and destructiveness than ever. Funding for the Dragon separatists would set the Samura project off schedule for years to come, and would make mining H-Fuel in Hokkaido far more expensive than the costs incurred by the GMG.

Not a bad idea.

Samura: GMG, this is Samura transport "We Heart Edo", passing through Sigma-13 on our way to Rheinland.
GMG: Yeah, no.
KNF: This is Naval Forces gunboat "We Pwnz0r j00". Might we remind the GMG of our... "agreement" regarding Samura traffic?
GMG: Fine, go through. *mutter* Jerks. *to BD* Yo, Blood Dragons!
BD: Wazzup?
GMG: We've got a Samura transport and a KNF gunboat passing through S-13. Go get 'em!
BD: Awriiiight! Can the lovely ladies of the GC come too?
GMG: Sure, go nuts.
FIVE MINUTES LATER
Samura: *a'splode*
KNF: NOOOO! Somebody must have tipped off the Blood Dragons and GC!
GMG: *whistles innocently* Why, li'l ol' us? Nu-uh, we had an "agreement", remember?
KNF: KHAAAAAAAN! *a'splode*

...Well, not quite that... But similar.

I won't follow through with it unless I have everyone's approval. Which I don't, so forget it.

And although hostile relations with Samura fit RP and would be interesting, due to the previous issues with the old faction, we'd have to keep them unfriendly at best.


EDIT: Hahaha! That's great. We will do that. I mean- uh, we would never do that!

[Tenacity]

sorry about that, I wrote 'hogosha' tipping off the dragons in my post, and i meant GMG. Not sure why I got them confused other than the fact that I have a headache and havent slept in 48 hours...

An idea: Naming convention for the three defense gunboats. (IMG)

GMG|Clotho
GMG|Lachesis
GMG|Atropos

The three Moirae, or Fates. Seems interesting and forboding, fitting for the three heavy guardians of the GMG fleet.

These would be on the shared GBs account, and be the only three IMG gunboats of the GMG.

Addition: Fighter and bomber naming conventions.

SevereTrinity already sent me the proposed fighter/bomber naming conventions, but here's an idea.

Fighters: GMG|First.Last
Bombers: GMG|First.Last|B
Transports: GMG|AsianSea

I'd like a new naming convention for the transports, but I'm stumped.

[SevereTrinity]

we actually made one

GMG|Shamtar, but that can get NC'ed easily
