I must ask Hyperwave why do you want to make your own Bretonian faction why not just join the SF?

I've been mildly miffed by one-shot weapons since their implementation, oh so long ago. I remember the days when fights were a matter of who could aim better, rather than who could aim a single shot. - Virus
Kiggles, u bring up a good point here. The reason i had started thinking about creating my own faction would be because LOS kind of died out. The dealer just dissapeared. I guess I had not thought of joining your faction, but now that you say it, its a good idea.
So if you're open to having new member, I'll gladly join your clan w/ okay from you.

If the stars should appear one night in a thousand years, how would men believe and adore and preserve for many generations the remembrance of the city of God? - from 'Nightfall' by I. Asimov The Outcasts consider Siniestre Nube a sacred place for several reasons. Early explorers discovered a jumphole within the depths of the cloud that leads to a strange world of ringed stars and strange craft. All ships in the burrial ground are placed facing that hole to honor the Alien Spirits. - An Outcast rumor

1) Both clans must have the same faction status.
2) If one clan went to war then the other must also go to war

This is not necessarily true. In my country we are at war, but our police are at home doing their job. Not over fighting the war. But they would be locked in a very secure alliance, whether they like it or not. It is an intersting point.

i see what you mean Assassin twin but if for example one of the cities in your country were attacked and enemy forces entered the city it would be safe to assume that the police would help the army in defending and killing the enemy soliders so even though the police remain at home to maintain order they are also still at war with the enemy so if the SF was at war the police may not take part i8n the fights against the enemy over sirius but if there was a battle in Bretonia then they would fight with the SF.

There is also another point one could bring up about police factions. Due to the fact that they are police and not the navy they would have a little more restrictions on ships... Such as generaly only using the Mk II house light fighter (Who's name I have forgotten... Hussar, or something, right?) and possibly a gunboat or two. You don't see our police running around with M16's, or Abrams tanks, do you?
But, since this problem seems to have been solved, the above is a moot point.
This is the real true story of rock and roll; it was not about anything more then, how to live your life, as a gangster, in sartorial splendor, and turning the world into a place where normality would never return again...- Malcolm McLaren
Actually Kane that depends on the country your in. For example in a country where the civilians are almost all armed then the police actually do go around with M16s (I got proof).
And yes basicaly the police would be more peaceful in the matter that they will only be used as home defense if the attackers manage to break through the navys defenses so it would be alot harder to take a terriotry.

He flies through half the system before going back to New Berlin, where he cruises from one side of the system to the other, hugging the sun as close as he can. All the while, he flies near Battleships trying to scrape me off. I finally send out the white flag, and move back to Sigma 13. However, it was a ruse, and he bit. Knowing his trade route, I interdicted the trade lane and the chase began anew. It ended, an hour after it began, with me retreating, out of Countermeasures and getting very irritated.
He kept boasting how he has never been caught; I'd like to see him beat until he begs to pay, then beaten some more.
Caribe has a point, and technically, not all countries are doing well enough in which they don't have military vehicles driving around. However, in the ones that are doing well w/ the police have hybrids of military vehicles, usually of less power.
In the states there is an organization that is funded by national taxes that do have wartime vehicles, just in smaller numbers (the equivelant to LSF in a sense). They mainly operate in their own country, thusly, under my consideration, they closer to police. If I had chosen to be the police, i could probably have a chance to have battlehships, but probably only a small part of the clan could own them. Depending on the size of the clan, it could have lots of battleships or a little.
The problem is pretty much solved though, so no more worry.
