Quote:I meant to remove Nicotine, cause it's stupid, but the Children of Anarchy believe they must be truely free, and Cardamine is a one-way trip. If you take it, you can never, ever quit. You're stuck on it for life.
Yes it was silly, that's why I made a silly remark on it. Other than that, well Cardamine is one-way trip, but you're aiming on constant export of it, it wouldn't hurt those who want to be users.
Now the point why am I saying that, as your story is that they were kind of "truly anarchistic", and in those years when you look at the crime groups, good number probably got hooked on drugs and such. If you're pushing the agenda of semi-wild faction which your name suggest , to be precise "While the Children of Anarchy see themselves as free, without master and without god, the Crimelord and his right-hand man must sometimes handle matters that require group representation" give your "gang" people some freedom to be wild druggies, drunks, savages. Especially if you're trying to distinguish yourselves from LE.
You complain that the Legion didn't represent the Brigands as Igiss designed them, then you make a faction that also doesn't represent the Brigands as Igiss designed them. Look to your left, that guys name is Pot. To your right you will see a lady named Kettle. Behind you is a black man, give him a dollar please.
I love that you think you can keep the Legion in line. You are delusional, it is the Legion who will keep you in line. They created the Conclave because they wanted to, not because you demanded it. I doubt your group lasts long, seeing as most groups created in the same light as yours tend to fade into obscurity.
Have fun with it though, this is a game after all.

The CoA are far closer to the vanilla Brigands than the LE, we're one possible group of many, many Brigand groups, and we're focused much more on Piracy than smuggling or the black market, that's why we have strange ideals.
It's why people come to the CoA over any of the other dozens of Brigand groups, because the CoA match their beliefs the best, and they've a much better chance of keeping those beliefs if they stand firm as a group and refuse to let others push them around.
Our group is described exactly how Igiss wrote them, as one of many of the Elder Brigand factions. Shying away from smuggling and preferring robbery is all.
The LE ran the Brigands like the King ran the GRN, one faction under one leader, the LE created the conclave when we threatened to make a big deal about it.
Now the LE can act militaristic and imperialist over the LE, and maintain much less control over the smaller Brigand groups.
The CoA will never accept an LE leadership over them, or any kind for that matter, that's why they have a voice in the Conclave. Strictly no Cardamine ensures that no CoA is ever controlled by the Outcasts, they want to make nice with the Outcasts without becoming their puppets.
Of course we could have continued like it was before, but after a series of thinking the Conclave was the best solution. OORPly there's less drama and inRP it's after Igiss' definition.
Quote:Brigand Conclave
The Conclave can be seen as a Council of the most powerful Brigands. The rise of smaller groups of Brigands made the Legion consider this step. The Conclave currently includes the Legion, as chair-faction, and the newly risen Children of Anarchy (CoA), a Brigand group.
See it as a similar, unlawful version of the old Zoner Council. Unofficial brigand groups do their thing, when they want to use a faction right, it is reviewed by LE and either approved or denied. It's a win-win situation for everyone, and makes Brigands more active all in all.
Also, LE is not militaristic. Militaristic is something like GRN, LN or BAF. The leaders there act like they want to, while in the Legion, the leader discusses with the high members over important decisions. Just because there is one leader at the top, does not necessarilly mean a faction is militaristic, just more organized than the regular indies.
So, yeah, like CoA is now, it's definately more acceptable than last time, and hopefully we're looking into a bright future ^^

Excuse me, did you just imply that no military factions have a high command? As a former (technical) member of the RMHC, I am insulted.

If I read correctly, he merely said that not all factions with a chain of command that includes a leader at the top of the hierarchy need be exclusively militaristic.
Sort of in a way that all squares are rectangles but not all rectangles are squares.
' Wrote:If I read correctly, he merely said that not all factions with a chain of command that includes a leader at the top of the hierarchy need be exclusively militaristic.
What I mean by that was the LE's original desire to be the ruling group of the Brigands, with an all powerful leader at the top who controls everything.
The LE have the power to crew and maintain an entire Battleship, something that requires more organisation than any other Brigand group could muster.
The CoA just felt that their control over their own path is literally threatened. But the problem was solved before it became a problem really.
The LE can organise themselves however they like in their corner, as long as it doesn't dictate the whole Brigand lore. And they have done a fine job of not screwing up past the lore hiccup.
For those who don't know, Birgads are clans similar to the mollies, only more loose, the bigger clans' elders meet up and make the important desicions.
Us and the Legion have no problem, we cooperate when they move out of gallia, but I don't often see them do so. with the new phases of war between The Council to the GRN, more freedom will be granted as we will be allowed to venture further.
