The Kusari Exiles (4.86)

[Unseelie]

Just stating things as I understand them, not trying to influence anyone. (except for you)
My understanding of the CR and the SCRA has been this: a player not in a faction is not allowed to use their tags. That's very simple, and a rule. It allows people to lock them in. There's a faction right that allows a faction to pound on people portraying their faction wrong, I believe.

In the case of the Wilde, the Nomads, Aoi Isejen, and Phantoms, (and now SCRA (I dunno how CR tagging works)) they were all supported in their being closed by the fact that there was no way for a player without faction permission to get the tags. I think that's how the admin faction is closed to indies as well, as a game mechanic. Without this game mechanic, which is what I think is going on here...I suspect you're going to have loots of trouble with people flying the NPC tags..

but I don't suspect, at any point, you'll have 10 cruisers, or 25 gunboats online, nor, presumably, the tens of fighters that comprises 'a few wings'. The only thing you have to worry about, in terms of the realizm of your relatively small numbers, is the possibility of Battleships. I believe you have a max of three player battleships

Another concern, since there's an npc faction emerging, is that the npcs will play all sorts of silly with those strict numbers.
