Dreadful business. We already have many semi-dead houses and yet another one is to be added.

'chain' is easy. Japan consists of many islands scattered all over place that are connected by one way or another. Connected like with a chain. Chain of islands. Get it?

Nowhere does it say that the French will be a full blown house.

On there being 8 sleepers... it IS a possibility if we go with the extended intro. It appears that the war continued after the 5 main sleepers got away. The French may have built a sleeper with the others, but were betrayed at the last minute, preventing liftoff.

Of course, I still prefer the short intro where the Coalition conquers Sol, since it makes more sense, but if we're going with the long one, we're going with the long one...

Houra !
Et pourrais-je enfin envahir le system chat en francais ?!
(and would i be able to spam the system chat in french ?!)

4.85 Reunion or French Revolution ? it could be Quebec, Polynesia, or any french speaking north African/African countries. Langage is just an aspect of culture not specifically country related. Btw Corsicans are considered french except if they've got their independancy in FL.:P

Hey i'm am a nice frenchy making a lot of effort to speak and write this barbarian langage call "English". NO !!!! Don't shoot me !

Yeah, the Outcasts are mainly Italian based and the Corsairs (and Zoners actually) are Greek based. Both have a mix of Spanish in them too.

About the 8 sleeper ships...maybe the other 3 were built after the original launch of the first 5. When those other 3 launched, they were destroyed because the Coalition made the mistake of letting the first 5 escape and weren't gonna do it again. The bartender said they were destroyed, so I want to remain consistant with that fact.

As for the name, I was thinking Gallia, the Latin name for Gaul, which is what the Franks called France when they settled there. Read about it here:

http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Gaul

Carlos Rivera: Corsair Brotherhood Pirate - Retired, shifted to Tripoli Shipyard's Research and Development engineering teams
Anthony Cameron: Guild Core Bounty Hunter - Killed in Action, committed suicide after being trapped in Omicron Minor following its destruction
Juan Ruiz: Outcast Ghost of Razgriz Pirate - Killed in Action, killed by the Sirius Coalition Revolutionary Army during Bretonian piracy raid
Michael Winchester: Liberty Security Force Agent - Missing in Action, likely killed during Rheinland espionage mission or trapped in Rheinland Space
Eric McCormick: Order Pilot - Retired, shifted to planetside training of new recruits

Liberty and Nomad Backstory, Very interesting - read it!

If they were built after, the barman wouldn't know about them.

I'm of the opinion that the most likely scenario is that they were built at the same time, but only 5 were able to launch.

ok, then maybe they were built before. They had to be destroyed somehow.

EDIT: Maybe...sabotage right before the launch?
