that is about the direct ranks given to the players by themselves.

provided there is a NPC faction, players would NEVER have the highest rank ... like fleet admiral or whatever. - the highest rank for a playerfaction would be somewhat lower, like admiral. - so a player choosing to play this faction could still be under the comand of the highest comander.

in return, i would ask you - is the rheinland lawful faction locked for any player that does not wish to be part of the RM now? ... is that OK if we apply it to other factions? - lock down every every independent anywhere there is a playerfaction that has given themselves the rank of supreme ruler?

- to answer your question directly - a player with appropriate tag, ship, equipment, roleplay, ID is in fact - rheinland military... and i would ask why is it that the RM claims to rule it all. such an attitute "might" work ( greatly limited ) for an NPC faction like the LSF - but locking down everyone that is not joining this playerfaction from playing as a rheinland lawful is... unsportive.

again, i ask you then - with darkwing being the only official BHG faction - are all other BHGs rogue agents? - if not, what makes them different to the RM. is it all based on their NPC role or is it that some factions are a bit too full of themselves. ( don t get me wrong, i sort of agree with RM being dominant, but dominant doesn t mean to lock out everything else - it means that you are strong, but not the only ones )

a playerfaction possesses power and coordination. thats what makes them strong. they are in fact small. thats why i rather use the term "subsection" of a NPC faction. the BHG are all the countless NPCs around, they are under the core command. the players are VIPs that are sticking out. a playerfaction is a squadron or a special forces section - but they are not... the "countless NPCs".

with that in mind - do you think it is OK when the leader of the bretonian forces was named queen carina? - or should he rather be admiral ( meaning there are higher ranks ).
