Quote:Not trying to demotivate you or anything like that, since there is already an LPI, why dont you merge in your ideas with them?
As I said, LPI is currently incredibly inactive and I don't really know if there even is someone to talk about this inside LPI. Also, as I said, this faction is supposed to be quasi-lawful, meaning we wouldn't do exactly the same things LPI does. As I wrote at the end, LPI must follow the Liberty Law, and they can't do anything against transports that are carrying some cargo that is not necessarily forbidden by the law (in my opinion for example Hydrogen Cyanide should be considered contraband, but such things will be talked through when/if the faction actually is created).
Quote:you can put forward some uniqueness (...) into this faction
I was thinking about this, and had some ideas, one of which being a deserted LN Carrier as a mobile base of operations, but this has some problems associated. I have a general summary of lore written already, but this is not finished and I don't want to publish it before it is.
Quote:Not totally convinced why vigilantes would be the way.
Here's a snippet of lore that was written today afternoon. I need to think of the names yet, so this is not finished.
Quote:'We have a cardamine smuggler behind us. This Salvager. Someone should really do something about that. [labc name]? [bomber name]? Over.' The Junker was approaching the mooring fixture of Houston, without saying a word to a huge Liberty Navy fleet. This must have been suspicious. I was hoping the CO of the mission was going to order some of the ships after the smuggler, and I saw [bomber name] eager to break out and go after the smuggler after my notice.
'Negative, [carrier name]. You and nobody else are allowed to chase this Salvager. We will have all of the ships ready any second now and you must not delay the fleet because of a puny cardamine smuggler. Over.' The words of CO were outrageous. I couldn't believe what we were hearing.
'Officer, sir, with all due respect, we mustn't let Junker smugglers get inside Liberty space and leave them out without any punishment. [bomber name] can take his ship down in a matter of seconds if he doesn't drop the contraband.' I was hoping to convince him, but I was losing my temper very rapidly.
'You had your orders. You are not allowed to go after the smuggler. All vessels, prepare cruise engines. Our fleet is complete, we will be heading into Bering any second now. CO out,'
