The JUNKER CONGRESS

[worldstrider]

I would just like to admit that I've been avoiding the Junker Congress thread for no particular reason, but I love what I'm reading!

First impressions are that the RP is fantastic and really fits in with the Junker's mindset. On the issue of weapons, I personally believe that we as a community need to find some way for the Outcast and Corsair weapons to be used together, even if it's a horrible choice for loadout. This is simply my dislike of metagaming when your looking for weapons for a character, rather than attempting to pwn all newbs with my 4 krakens and 2 tizzies. If any faction would have a reason to buy Outcast/Corsair weapons and use them together it would be the Junkers, as they are basically the only faction (aside from Zoners) that deal directly with both factions on a semi-regular basis.

Also, about the Rhien BS, I think it's a great opportunity to write some awesome RP for it. However, before you say "it makes sense in RP," write some RP, make it interesting and add a twist. Eppy's Bretonian BS comes to mind, I love the RP behind that, and I"m sure that's why people tolerate it.

Overall, I love my little collector and if I start playing him again, I'll make sure to give a nod, or even join you all in space. Also, I like how much thought you put into the faction and the different names for everyone.

Junka fo life!

I'm done now...

Thanks for the good feedback.

I have an entire "sub-story" for the Rheinland battleship in Puerto Rico--which would be ruined if I revealed it here. I personally think Junkers would use whatever was most utilitarian for reaching their goals with no regards to "sensibilities" of other individuals.

The reality is, that this is apparently a "volatile" suggestion to a lot of people so I have tried hard to diffuse the things that are problems and also not coerce everyone into seeing all Junkers through our own world view here.

We get the faction official and we then get to actually spend the same energy on role play and character development--then it will be very fun.

I would love experienced Junker rpers to come in when they can as we can use some mature members to help with the flood of newer players. I am averaging 2-4 simultaneous PMs almost the entire time I am on now.

When the dust settles here, I'll discus a couple of things with you and see what you think. You sound pretty Junkerish to me.:cool:

Cya in game!
