Lets improve the gameplay between the Hessians and the Corsairs

[Coin]

from the other thread where i had totally missed the point

theres a massive difference between 'not fighting' and 'joining in the ganksquad to attack gamma' Your unholy alliance against everything corsair is bordering on a serious breach of 0.0; i invite you to make a titan and stand in out line of defense for an evening. Hell, i'll even PAY for your character. <ronnie, take the money of 'shikoko'>
you said it. not me. The lolganksquads that your alliance created have polarised the server. well done there. the end result? we hear of an attack in gamma, and all corsairs come out in force, and then the raid is popped. those raiders qq in their skype channels, and their friends pull their cruisers down and dock them on the zoner bases, so they can assist at a moments notice
and then the zoners get slapped around for something that they didnt do, and then the omicroner faction dies down and is almost out. well done there.

we cannot wipe out the hessians. you press 'respawn' and your back in the game. decentralisation has nothing to do with it. Sairs are the largest faction on the server, and the only one with THREE official fations, operating in separate areas. we have an advanced form of govt; autonomy within the areas of ZOO, and accord within ZOI.
however, i'll just say 'casablanca' here.
lore: corsairs paid for the planet in 49, zoners owe sairs plenty of mullah.
actual: the continued ganksquads that your alliance has whelped mean that you have created a corsair diaspora; we have a ZOI that far exceeds that of the hessians, to whit, you really should stop raiding in bretonia: you are rheinlanders. If the player-corsairs leave gamma, then the ganksquads will stop, as they will get bored of shooting nothing but npcs.

And then the activity of the Hessians will dwindle. The hessians need the sairs in gamma more than the corsairs need to be in gamma. if you would save your faction, start a war with the mollies, and give yourself more enemies, not alliances. I've been playing FL a looong time, across many servers; this gives me the experience to say that the hessians have less than a year to secure long-term rp/pewpew partners, before they start getting gentle reminders about activity levels.

Corsairs are the new CR :laugh:

Wether they want to admit it Corsair players have stirred up alot of Ill Will in the community. Only time or another community whipping boy will change things.

This is both disrespectful and inaccurate. CR doesnt/didnt have the number of enemies that the corsairs have.
do you have a corsair ship?

Corsairs still have more people and more ships, including a pretty heavy legate hessians don't have a good counter to.

They just can't use what they have, but that's their fault alone.

the snubs have always been a pain to fly. they're heavy, they're slow, and they're out-turned by the majority of bombers, nevermind VHFs. This led to a tendency for increased numbers of capital ships, and then... the rest is history.

1. i will make a hessian char when i get back from africa. (approx 4 weeks)

2. i have written up a hessian/sair event, spread across three systems, involving a mixture of caps/snubs/transports. will dig it out and post it in a new thread
