New Faction Concept

[Locke]

The reason why this faction will work is obviously because of the well written and exceptionally simple RP description. I love how there's nothing fancy; you aren't some crazy mutants, or aliens, or gods descended from above. You don't have any real ultimatum, other than to just be a group of simple pirate/semi-terrorists. It's perfect, and if I had more time I would certainly devote it to such a great opportunity for some good ol' fashioned RP.

I believe you when you say that you will limit your troops to only using Unioner weapons and ships, only because I think you understand that using anything else would destroy the faction (as it has for so many others.)

The only thing that worries me is that you might become RM's punching bag. RM's list of PC faction enemies is not incredibly long, and the one's that have been around have regretfully died out. There's going to be a lot of conflict there, and in most cases it probably won't end well for the Unioners (no offense meant, but overall RM will not only have superior numbers, but superior firepower as well.) I can't help but worry that this is going to be a bit of a downer when you play to have RM constantly riding you. I guess as long as you are willing to play using a more "shadow tactics" disposition, then the faction should be fine.

Great idea, Kress. You have my vote.
