' Wrote:The ID allows up to battleships last I checked. They would have an awe-inspiring military force. They did beat the Rheinlanders back into a treaty to mostly their own benefit.
That said, starting up in S-13 would be uber hard. I'd suggest if we started the faction, we would need to base out of S-17's Ogashawa until we could really have the resources for S-13 and Naha.
yes, but they beat the rheinland fleet back with nothing but fighters and bombers. It isnt really in the GMG's RP to use heavy capships, they're supposed to be fighter aces who use the nebula and gas clouds to their advantage in combat.
They also have no capships of their own, just a heavy fighter and bomber right now (taiidan line). They are able to use the kusari explorer gunboat, as most of them were sold to the GMG after kusari upgraded to their new line of gunboat-class ships.
A zoner destroyer or two might be ok, since they're direct allies and the GMG is a fairly rich faction... but battleships? Last thing this mod needs is more people in battleships.
Other than the taiidan line, kusari explorer, and -maybe- zoner ships, you're stuck with the civilian or borderworlds fighter/bomber line.
