Since the Bundschuh faction has been disbanded, I thought about posting my ideas of a replacement.
My general idea was: All of Rheinland's unlawfuls are politically motivated (more or less) and they're all left-wing. No, don't get me wrong, I will not introduce racist Space Nazis, but a party that is not solely dedicated to Workers, Miners and Farmers like Unioners, Red Hessians and the LWB are.
I wanted the PSG to be a Social Democratic party, that also aims at intellectuals. No hard socialism, no communism, no blood-stained revolution.
Now one might think: "boring, no fighting, no recruits" but now comes the fun part.
The PSG is armed in order to defend itself against the demagogic military, to police Rheinland paramilitarily and to fend off Libertonian Invaders. Piracy WILL be allowed, but we will only speak of "donations" and we will only "ask" wealthy merchants with full cargo holds and large transports over 2500 cargospace.
The aim of the PSG is to reform Rheinland to a parliamentary democracy that uses social economy as a foundation, rejects militarism and fights against the increasing gap between poor and rich.
Some more information will follow below.
PSG - Partei für Soziale Gerechtigkeit ("Social Justice Party)
Bundschuh ID
Tag: |PSG|
In game behaviour:
- Social democratic politics
- Comprised of workers, miners, farmers AND intellectuals
- Paramilitary, though largely defensive
- Collects donations from rich traders
- Fends off Libertonian Invaders if necessary
- Fights against "dirty" piracy
- Tolerates drugs only as long as it is for personal use
- Does not tolerate slavery or artifact smuggling
- Operates within all of Rheinland and the immediate, bordering systems. Homesystem is Frankfurt, homebase is Bruchsal.
Goals:
- End of the Liberty-Rheinland war
- Aims to reform Rheinland into a parliamentary democracy
- Aims for social market
- Rejects militarism, the Military becomes a pure defense force
- Fights the increasing gap between poor and rich
- Open to foreigners and free trade between the colonies, though only as long as it is benefical for all citizens
Diplomacy: - Hessians: Possibly allied, although the PSG does not share their agressive stance and their ultimate goals of socialism/communism.
- Unioners: Same as the Hessians
- LWB: Same as the Hessians
- Junkers: Neutral and judged individually
- Allies of the Hessians (Rogues, Mollies, etc.) Neutral. As long as they behave themselves, they can stay in Rheinland. The SCRA is an exception, see further down.
- Trans-Sirian cooperations and groups (Bounty Hunters, Junkers, IMG) Neutral. Judged individually.
- Gallic groups (of any kind) Unfriendly. Very wary of them and prefer not to have them around. The Council may be an exception, since they also desire a democracy in their home.
- Rheinland cooperations: Unfriendly. Will be "asked" for donations if carrying enough cargo in a large enough ship. No assassination of these ships.
- Liberty Forces: Unfriendly. Their Navy does not belong in Rheinland and needs to be fended off. Though a peace agreement is desirable.
- Liberty cooperations: Unfriendly. Same as Rheinland cooperations, although they may be charged a bit more and harder.
- Bretonia and Kusari cooperations: Unfriendly. Same as Rheinland cooperations, although they may be charged a bit more and harder.
- SCRA: Unfriendly. They are way too radical for the PSG and are only tolerated in company of Hessians.
- Outcasts: Unfriendly. As long as they do not smuggle cardiamine in order to sell it or pirate Rheinland citizens, they are tolerated, but not liked.
- Rheinland Military and Police: Unfriendly to hostile. We do not openly fight them, but we will defend ourselves with full force when attacked. Occasional assassinations of important Rheinland Military vessels, especially lone Capital ships are permitted. Afterall, they are the main instrument of the cooperate terror the government spreads. Talking to them is still a very important aspect and should be done to convince them. Especially policemen and women are underpaid and overworked.
- Corsairs: Hostile. They must be destroyed whenever they enter Rheinland territory
- All other criminals, that are not allied to the Hessians. Including independent pirates Hostile. They are to be destroyed or removed from Rheinland forcibly.
- Alien forces (Nomads, Wild, Aoi Isejin) Hostile. Shoot on sight, they are a threat to all of mankind and need to be exterminated. Pardon will not be given.
This is a first draft and its purpose is to ask, wether people like the idea or not.
