Behold! The Spyglass!

[me_b_kevin]

Nah, I think we're too small to be thinking about clan-specific ships. That's good for something like EvE, in all its uber-splendor, but Freelancer is a small thing. There'd only be a few of each type, and if the faction leader controlls his battleships (as he bloody well should) some of the less well-connected players may never even see one, much less get to handle them. The Spyglass is rare anyways, it doesn't even apply to this ship.

well the spyglass is basically grandfathered into my idea already as it's practically an HF ship. that's what started my idea anyway, was giving the other successful factions (Phantoms for example) their own ship located in their own ship factory in their own system. that was my idea in general terms, it worked like a tech tree. the faction first bought a system, then bought a ship yard, then bought ship plans of whatever sort.

the amount of money needed for that would limit it's use so we didn't have every new faction wanting new stuff that would require a new version of Disco.
