So about this Kusari Civil War thing...

[Enkidu]

We did a blockade against Liberty which was apparently ignored/retcon'd.
So no, I do not think we can do anything we want. Admins would probably eventually step in and tell us we cannot deviate this much from the established lore.

It would be nice to see actions taken in order to avoid this "we lost drive to do things because we were ignored and thus abandoned the area" trend happening again.

Or we could just remove anything except Liberty from the mod and call it a day. That's a solution too, and it would fix that "too many systems for server population" problem.

Right now, I'm RP trading in Gallia, and sometimes just flying around as a civ gallic civ. Gallia. The dead meme house.


Surprisingly, I'm getting great interactions. People offering me 3 million to ship 20 units of Gaian wildlife because they're worried about angering the BPA. Indie Asco's with suprisingly good RP. Convoys with other Gallic Civs. Roleplaying a stubborn imperialist in the heart of a (relatively) stable society yet with a revolution that is actually decisive, well-executed and impactful, unlike Liberty, Bretonia, Kusari, etc.


Sure, the lanes are very short making piracy a little harder, all factions are dead and even the GRN is haemorrhaging itself to death in a skype war/round of bitterVet'ism rather than playing the game, but it's beautiful, Igiss's lore is wonderfully coherent and even though my favourite system in the mod got LOLSupernova'd because of the "Gallia is dead because it's huge" crowd (I'm RPing it as a goverment conspiracy as a comfy flipoff), Gallia is wonderful. It's a blank slate. You can do whatever you want there, nobody is trying to put No-Fun-Allowed stickers on your lawn and it's got great internal traderoutes (kudos to the economy devs; the better side of the dev team).

I feel the whole idea of "Established Lore" is fine. But "Established Story"?

What's the point of an RP server if we can't dynamically invent story changes within reason? You might as well turn it into Hamburg City 2.0 at that point if we're aspiring only to the common denominator of limited consequences beyond PVP and cash earning.
