Vagrant Raiders (VR-)

[Govedo13]

Code:

- Can attack any ship that is hostile to them within the guidelines of the rules.

This line is the reason of the said attitude. This grands you terrorist ID. You can declare anything that you want hostile and only sufficient RP- it means engagement notice is needed in order to shoot whatever you want. I find this Terrorist ID feature not as good thing.

Code:

- Can attack any ship that is hostile to them within the guidelines of the rules.
- Can raid systems claimed by factions and houses hostile to them. Vagrantly.
-Can enforce the laws of Natio Octavarium within its space.

This 3 lines could do more harm then good so without them you would have the same rights as the other quasi-legal IDs. You cannot expect to hug the lawful forces and to be able to attack at the same time everyone everywhere that you declared hostile.
Check Hogosha and Privateer and GJ IDs for reference.

Also the said 2 systems are populated by other factions, your in-RP claims cannot be taken seriously considering that according to the lore the said other factions have bases and patrols there. You have some vague concept in your heads how you want to roll but you should try to make it more concrete with less generic stuff and with concrete bonuses and downsides like all other factions and IDs. I does not think that you can be actually that flexible in your Roleplay, the level of flexibility that you request would mean that someone would need to adjust your rephacks and your ID each several months, while those are adjusted once per 1 or 2 years- you should mind that. In general such flexibility would be welcomed for all factions but the old limited freelancer engine does not allow such dynamic changes. Note that if you want to be official your faction RP would impact the RP of the other factions, this impact cannot be 100% of yours or their control, you should consult it with the lore writers as well.
Exaple for this is when the lore writers said that Mollys should hug the Bretons in 4.86 none wanted it and it didn't happened, also Mollys waned to hug the Gallics but it didn't happened too things went in the middle-way. I am not able to determinate yet what you want to do actually- cover with nice RP story some PvP at will thing or you really try to do something new and fresh without checking the limits of the system. I really hope for the second that's why I bother to type this stuff.
Still in my opinion is that the best way to create your own mini house is to re-activate some dead faction and change its RP route instead of creating brand new thing that is hard to fit in.

Official faction players that are often accused of elitism, never deploy them and have those weird, immersion killing "fair fight/dueling" suicidal hobbies. (yes, i've seen enough of those lolduels, where house military with overwhelming force on the field willingly loses a pilot in a duel. ffs.)
