-[Cartel]- The Cartel

[Leo]

Still interested.

But there may be a slight problem. The currently dominant(?) smuggling faction out there is the 81st Syndicate. I don't think naming another smuggling faction almost the same is a good idea.

Also, imo the idea with the paramilitary/escort division isn't so good. When you first brought up the idea of this faction, I was most intrigued by it basically being a very loose group of smugglers. Adding divisions would kinda ruin that, for me at least.

Hey, thanks for the reply, Toaster.

The name isn't changing. I redid almost everything I had setup for it before, not changing it again for a third time, certainly not after changing everything around again. That and changing it again will only confuse more people to the faction document. I spoke to the leader of the other faction, our tags are different and no where near the same, so in game it won't be a problem. Too many posts were done by me over the past few days for me to go back through ALL of them and change them around.

As for the escorts...I would like to have a small escorting wing because let's face it, if you're flying with a wing of smugglers, say, three or more, metagamers are going to swoop in and try to blow you up. We all know they're on this server and we all know most of them read the forums. They'll see this document (official or unofficial) and will intercept us to try to kill us just because they see this document. I'll keep it as a loose group of smugglers for now, but I fear that in time I'll HAVE to start a wing of escorts, regardless of if I want to keep it a loose wing of smuggler ships or not...I'd LIKE to keep it that way, you're right, but I'm worried that in time I won't have a choice.

P.S. Sorry if that sounds harsh or difficult to follow, I just woke up, so my writing is all jumbled.
