SCRA Faction Feedback

[Derkylos]

Hmm, my first encounter with the SCRA in space today...and we got wiped out :$ Even numbers, us with a gunboat and all...and only me left at the end.

Well, as far as the actual engagement went, I wasn't there for the very start, so i missed out on the lead up. As usual, my contribution to the engagement consisted of "CD spam" and "look, I hit you with a deb shot, woot", and I dont really have any comments there.

The aftermath...well, good and bad. Bad is that you chased me half way from Cardiff to the NL jumpgate. I know Ares explained that you get chased like that, but I would have loved to see some closing RP from you...much more fun than dodging bullets on my end (I will admit i thought "damn PvP whores, all they want is a kill message" at points). Also, I feel that persuit for kilometers across a system is a tad OORP, unless you are specifically after that character (bounty), or the continued presence of said target is dangerous to your faction as a whole...not really the case when you are on the offensive. However, the good bit was when Ares PMed me afterwards and we had a quick OORP chat. I know it's a RP server and all, but doing this sort of thing after a fight can ease any tensions, and remind both sides that we are only here for fun, and, of course, you can complement the other side on any good tactics they used, and condole them for lag issues etc.

And, finally (damn...this is a long post...oh well), I'd like to comment on a few things. First, the faction tag rethink-looks better now when you look at the online list and everyones a "SCRA" rather than there being "RAHF"s, "RAB"s and "RALF"s (:lol:). Also, with reguards to the tag...I know you are forced to work within the bounds of what we have here, but Xeno definitely dosn't feel right...Xenos are against any interaction with foreign civilizations...and you guys are as foreign as it gets! Here's hoping you get a SCRA faction soon. Will also help clear up the O-52 route, as I was not aware that it was your system at first.

All in all, I feel that your faction is the best "imported" faction, as It really suits the feel of FL. Ok, you had a leg up due to the Starlancer story, but still...good work!
