The Reichstag

[DragonLancer]

Some of you should spent more time in school than playing a computer game and posting crap about a nation's history you barely can imagine.
Why can't you just stick to the give roles which are available in this Sci-Fi game?

This so called community is becoming more and more absurd - beside the fact that barley a third of the regular online players are faction players.

Oh, the 'old' roleplay of RM was that the Rheinlanders are some kind of fanatic believers who worship their former democratic elected Chancellor as god.
Virus did a delicate but very good job in my opinion.

Oh, the area 'Rheinland' on earth is definitely NOT Germany.
And the developer's view of Freelancer's Rheinland is a constitutional monarchal state which relays on military power and 'ancient' traditions.

I'm basing it on the way I've experienced Rheinland while playing there. I agree, I didn't had the time to do so during the last few months, but should the house have changed that much? When I played there the military had the real power, only responding to the Kanzler.

I agree with you, that the Rheinland Military seems to represent the power of the executive branch of Rheinland all alone, since its very rare to see any Pilot of the Federal Police.
And 'cause of the war, it seems only normal to me, that the Military Faction only respond to the Kanzler. After all, he is in the highest position in the goverment of Rheinland.

But what is an army with the intention to protect the homeland, without someone to protect, so the justification of our existence is based on the civilians and especially the lawful factions of Rheinland.
This is, why i see it very important to speak with the other factions beside the Rheinland Military and give them positions in the Reichstag.

I totally hope, that this wouldn't become a second wartime goverment, like in 170 A.S.

Sorry to let you know, but the Rheinland is an area of Germany and the developers of Freelancer based it on Germany, just the era isn't clear ('cause the Rheinland history is not the History of Rheinland).
But if you read the timline of Rheinland, you will see, that the modern Rheinland isn't a constitutional monarchy.

Kind, you are neither an adult nor ever worked for any software corporation so you better shut up about things you cannot even realize.

Igiss created an own timeline for this modification, enhancing the basic game story.

You know, you sound like someone telling someone something so obvious it's already un-obvious again. Not that Dragon up there would need you to tell him something he knows perfectly due to his own living place and education.

Oh, and i always thought Rheinland is based on South Africa.

He was right Lancer. Rhineland is a region in Germany.
Therefore, you have to cause to tell him to shut up.
The argument of him neither being an adult or..working in a software corporation has no bearing at all on the statement he made.

All in all, you just attacked him for no valid reason.


The Reichstag exists.
The Chancellor heads it.
He wields a somewhat dictorial type power based on Virus' work, using the RM as his strong arm in a way.
Rcently, I'm unsure of what has changed.

Alright lets keep it civil, no flaming please, from either of you.

Now as the -might be temporary- Faction Leader of the [RM] (unless one of the old admirals return) I will personally give my opinion that this idea is interesting. Whoever would like to start it could contact me and we can discuss it before we move into anything big, and Dragonlancer has a point, we should try to keep it vanilla.

And the Chancellor was never decided since Malte left, I kept it alone hoping he would come back but it doesnt seem like he will return for a while. I will need someone to lead a government.

hmm, lets see how this goes.

Uh, they're fascists.
If not in title, by their actions and structure.

Simple enough, there.


Sorry, Germans.

Linkus has it pretty spot on, the reichstag exists, according to vanilla and discovery. The discovery news bulletin also suggests that the chancellor has nearly absolute power, unless theres a unanimous decision from all the other reichstag officials opposing him. However, the chancellor would obviously not be involved with the majority of political affairs.

I'm happy to try and get the ball rolling however would like to say that I do not want to be 'in charge' of this idea, if somebody wants to pick up this idea and run with it please do, there's clearly interest in it, I just think the concept would be beneficial, and would like to be involved.

Anyway, sending PMs.

I quite dont understand, why you want to keep it vanilla, since the current timeline of discovery says someting different about Rheinland.
Wouldn't it be better, to keep it to the timeline of the discovery modification?

Just a suggestion, cause we could say, that the things changed and we are back to the old days.

@DragonLancer
If you want to insult me, fell free to do it per PM, but not here.

[aznremix416]

I did not mean to keep it completely vanilla, just the concept of it, and since the war with Liberty started the gov. of Rheinland changed indeed.
