Discovery 4.86 Storyline: Rheinland in 818 A.S.

[Blodo]

Half of this is simply hessian favorable selfmade plot (selfmade Legend) and most of the rest is only POV or even completely wrong. Want a Sample?

Incorrect. It's all either lore contained in infocards, or simply a logical lore progression.

#1 Ever been in the "asteroids between caps" Order homeworld system, Omicron Minor?
#2 Asteroids is much more a huge disadvantage for use of Bombers and CD`s, giving huge advantage back at caps in comparison to "open" Scenarios, where they would get owned without any chance of escape.
#3 Ever used a battery of BS Primaries on close range (nomatter Asteroids or free space)?

Again all wrong. In RP capitals fare incredibly badly and take heavy damage in asteroids. We are talking about RP and lore and not gameplay and balance, so your argument doesn't apply. Similarly, the GMG destroyed Rheinland's capship fleet during the 80 years war by utilising the fact that their ships were next to invisible in the gas nebula. The fact that it doesn't work that way ingame simply doesn't matter, some things are not properly displayed in gameplay. Like planets being only marginally bigger than most capital ships for example.

@"the Point"
Topic is Rheinland, not the Hessians!

Hessians are a Rheinland faction.

Now all rheinland company factions struggled hard to keep alive in the real FL Game RP as fact! Pushing up prices, adding big bonuses or even new Trade opportunities gave a bit more air for shure but that didnt turn the Situation.

So now, if we set their existance as a RP fact that should not change for multiple core RP and Balance reasons, any plot has to support that this RP and Balance will be kept and supported.

Now im not the only one complaining against that Plot because it contains some major contradiction to rheinland company factions existance, instead of the realy much needed support and favor.

The plot has nothing to do with this. The fact that these companies are inactive ingame is due to ONLY balance reasons, which have very little (if not absolutely nothing) to do with the plot. If you mean to say that they aren't expanding as they should, I put it to you that Koeln is in fact an expansion.

The other Rheinland companies simply have nowhere else to expand for now. The closest possible location is Omega-15 and there are already plans being made regarding that so yeah.

But lets face it, there is very little wrong with this plot (the main thing being that the Unioners and Bundschuh could have used more expansion). Picking at straws won't work.
