I just want them to thrive...untill BSG is dead.
actually, use the marauder exclusively, hang out in magellan, and alpha.
and wipe the non fl factions out.

Well...this doesn't really need a comment.

However, I will ask u to think about, why are so many people. so eager to engineer and join non-FL factions? I believe there's nothing more to blame,than the original Freelancer. Though marvelous game in its own right, combining never before seen aspects of FRP/RPG and sim/shooter games, freelancers original story is at best, non too imaginative deja-vu, with references to historical conflicts and sociological/political constitution of modern world history (which was essentially one of the major drawbacks of its predecessor The StarLancer). Alas the same too narrow visioned references were applied even to the basic FL ship design. This resulted in most ships being non too appealing, making them seem more of a modern art statues than space fairing vessels. I mean, c'mon be fair: kusari fighters with fish fins? Bretonian fighters lookin like giant roaches (Sir Reginald Mitchell, creator of the beautiful Spitfire must be turning in his grave at the insult of bretonian fighters design). The only thing appealing besides excellent gameplay in singleplayer FL, was the subtle introduction of NOMAD as a hiden allien menace. But in Disco RP they'r excluded, while NPCs are far too underpowered to pose any alternative to PVP. All those given reasons were to blame for a rather speedy demise of original FL and I believe, success of Discovery. Introducing new systems and new beautiful ships (e.g. Viper, Marauder, Raven's Talon, Battlestar etc..), it gave us a chance to re-live FL this time in a much better looking and more imaginative environment. So why be once again so narrow visioned as the original FL was, and stop there? Why not introduce few non FL factions? If RPed well, they could only be beneficial to the game play and the whole disco community.
(I do emphasize the fact "IF RPed well")

Are CYLONS/BSG really all that incorporable into Disco world compared to, say, some "MANGA style stories having anti-superheroes that have titanium/tungsten bones and can kill with thoughts standing 18m away"?

All I know, once I'v seen a picture of Vipers escorting a battlestar, I knew I wanted to play Disco. To be completely honest, IMG eagles just wouldn't have the appeal.
