Thank you so much for the help. still working on ID info. I changed one column to class of ships, since the info card of ID only lists of fighters, gunboats, etc. Once all ID's are pasted, I will need help with a column of approved faction ships. Also, I think it may be handy if there are columns listing allies and enemies. what do you think?

I'm startin' to keep track of all the Bounty Hunter do's & don'ts, so if you need anything concerning that, I'll be more than happy to help... this might help the pirates understand why I kill them "without any reason"...
Oh thanks Danelo & Fellow Hoodlum... luckily patience is a virtue (a must for being a BH), so I'll give it a shot...:)
Well, that might not be a bad idea. Perhapses something listed as to what systems you can RP in or not. The ID info card may list as to whether you can pirate or not, but it also may be helpful if there is a column describing the role of that particular ID..????

I think some guidance would be helpfull, What do you do at the start, test pilot skills to see if any faction want's you, if not good enough for fighters then parhaps supply vesel pilot, or desrtoyer backup, but something or some one at the start to help a new player, instead of continueing as if you have just compleated the game, wandering around the system making mistakes getting up other players noses because You don't know what to for the best, as soon as new player joins they should be placed in a group, ie 5 - 10 in a group and has to stay with that group until a certain level is reached, then player can be poached by factions, or can stay with group and form own faction, as the group numbers decline then the next new player can be added, and it gives a sence of purpose, other wise you would be just as well playing offline.
I know, Maranzo, but like these guys said, it would be a nice section to have in there...
Like I only learned recently about how to handle the trader contract thing - that wasn't stated anywhere. I remember you being in that conversation as well...
Well, originally, I want to have a column of the correct ships used for a particular ID. But Victor did bring up a good point about the "Do's & Don'ts" of a particular faction. This may be something that can be very useful for RP players. an additional column of info could be added. (This info will prob. be quite debated until an agreement could be reached).
*EDIT* gonna have to pop off here for now (RL issues).. I'll be back after while... Thanks again for all your help....

That is great idea Ron. I think perhaps after the information is completely collected we could go one step further. We could make a faction page for each of the npc factions, that contains their do & don't , ID's required, general ships allowed, etc. It would also have a spot where in the words of that faction, their opinions about the other factions.
Here is 5 examples from on of my Vampire The Masquerade core rule book...(please don't flame me for using this an example but it is truly a very helpful tool for role-playing in that game)
I would be more than willing to lend assist in this endeavor. Please let me know. From my prep work with the Baskerville Hounds I have gathered a great deal of info behind the Molly's
EDIT: Im sorry there was nothing I could do to make these links more dial up friendly.
Yes ! I never turn down a helping hand..lol.. Well, so far I pasted all the info about the ID's. I found out that alot of the ID's describe the "Do's & Don'ts" in a general term. I also began other columns of the faction's allies, enemies, and general information about the faction.
I'm going to need help with the approved ships column. I'm going to post what i got so far. (This is just a data page, later I'll make a new sheet with a pivot table thingy or something like that).
Let me know what you all think and please give me any suggestions or comments...
