The Colonial Republic - CR|

[Echo 7-7]

I kind of have to agree with Rommie about the squadrons. I barely ever used anything but my [44th] Nyx in =CR=, and even where situations demanded that a [41st] vessel would be more suitable, I just ended up rolling out the 44th one anyway. Had an 88th one, too, that I didn't exactly get much use out of.

Just a comment on the squadron structure; I agree with the above posters even though I was never in =CR=. It is difficult to make full effectiveness separate units located in different systems without a method of fast and efficient coordination (read: being able to catch an enemy in system X with a pincer attack from two directions). You'd also need to start buying more and more ships in order to have full tactical flexibility available in each location, rather than having to fly them a certain distance which might mean that reinforcements arrive too late. However, this is just from personal experience - if you can make it work, then props to you. Even if you end up changing the actual structure, there is no need to remove the squadrons from your roleplay as they provide some nice flavour.


As for your diplomacy; you may not be aware that the Hellfire Legion has a long-standing neutrality with the Colonial Republic. It is entirely your choice as to whether or not you list this in your diplomacy.


And yes, Dane, "we" owe you some forum comms. It's coming soon™!
