I also very much agree with Unselies idea of [BPS] becoming a Cambridge-based special forces group, tasked with defending Cambridge and likely Dublin from Corsair intrusion, esp [OPG], and also with authorization to take the fight all the way to Gamma in response.
I could support [BPS] as a separate BAF tagged/generic military IDd faction which is consistent with their behind enemy lines role, which seems to mesh well with their historical role. From their point of view, their clan seems to have a long history, and it would be understandably difficult for them to let that go, and just join our factions (Though they indicate they will anyway, which is great, other imported clans were dead-set against that).
And Blunt, as for the Templar thing, that is SOO sigged. Also however, given how long these guys have been playing FL, if they want to say they are elite, it is likely an earned term. Im betting their PVP and RP will be high standard, once they get into the server. Certainly the guys that have posted so far have given me that impression.
In short, Im optimistic about this, and looking forward to playing with you guys.
