Faction pre-release - discuss

[Deeceem]

Just a heads up. Effectively you can't escort or rather protect others with the pirate ID and IFF except it is also another Pirate IFF'd ship. Otherwise the lawful combat vessels can just ignore you in their house space and attack said transport without you being able to interfere. Just something to consider (Yes I saw the ID you imagine, but you obviously wont start with it).

Otherwise, I assume your main operating zone are the Omegas around Cayman then, right?

Your ID idea is wonky:

"- can attack people from their To-Do-List at will, if they don’t want to pay to be deleted"

It's quite hard to follow such list for others, especially if it constantly gets changed. It's also abusable as hell "Hey I attacked you because you were on our to-do list, but you already got deleted from it since I killed you." or "Hey put this guy on the list, because he said something on the forums I didn't like!"

"- can escort smugglers only"

It's not really a defined term. Especially rule-wise. When is a smuggler a smuggler? For instance someone hauling Cardamine in Omicron Alpha isn't a smuggler, he becomes a "smuggler" when he enters space where Cardamine is illegal. So it is not really a clear term.
Better would probably be: "- Can escort neutral or friendly freighters and transports" or something like that.

"If ya don’t want to be a target show how much that is worth to you… of course a monthly payment is expected! Sending a small amount of credits is just like you send nothing! This offer is only avaiable for official factions
The limit of payment-friends is set to three, that means the early bird catches the worm!"

Why only official factions? If anyone, small unofficial groups could need that offer.

Overall I see here much potential for future drama, mainly based on ruining other people's day and the whole list thingy.

It's just feedback.
