Quote: I just ran into you on my IND. When I first got a look, I was a bit skeptical, a weird assortment of transports talking all weird, but I have to say, I really enjoyed the encounter. The rp was quite good, and just as much as I played with what you gave me, you played with what I gave you.

Zelot, if I'm thinking of the same encounter it did go quite well, and I should apologize for my connection betraying me. I lost the ability to communicate part way through due to bad lag. Next time Corvus and the Ravencaller will be a bit more talkative. What I did see was fun, you definitely gave us things to think about on the fly, which was great.

Ian, I completely understand where you're coming from. We'll do our best on this one, and take feed back as it comes.

A couple quick questions.
1/ Your useing transports? correct? So what happens if you see a cap. More OORP hitting ships in site? or you going to run/attack the cap so he can fire?

2/Whats to stop someone from just killing you,as you roll the dice?

Sordid will probably respond as well but here are my impressions:

1. The cap is as valid a target for us as anything else. (Most of us are suicidal, or at least don't care about dying). So either we attack the cap (esp. if we roll beserk) or if we don't then we'll likely just float silently by. I for one am not going to pirate someone in front of a cap ship.

The only time I could see this being an issue is if there was a liner/(ship carrying people) and a cap ship. In-RP I'd go for the liner, easier prey and lots of it, and the cap ship couldn't shoot me without also hitting the transport once I was entangled with the liner. OORP, being aware of the rule, I'll attack the cap ship first or try to quickly arrange something with in-game PMs if there's a positive response (Eg. I'll board and the capship can RP sending forces over to assist. At which point if it's just me a whole bunch of Marauders likely get blasted).

2. It's like any other thing written into the chat line. I've been blown away serving an engagement notice before I moved once. It happens and it's frustrating, but meh. If someone can kill me in the time it takes me to write "/dice," I'm not going to win anyway.

Also, if someone opens up on us then it's fair game for us to shoot back. If we win, it's BBQ marauder-style.

Thx for that response. Good to see you will not hide behind rules to be OORP like many others. It sucks when your in a cap,and see a pirate in a P-trans robbing,and have to just pass on by.
I am not saying i will meet you in my cap. More likely my Liberator,but just had to ask. Hope to see you ingame.

I don't have much to add to Dio's answer.

Cap players are usually keen to some good RP, are they not?
So if we're a bunch of transports crossing a cap ship, or he crosses us interacting with a liner, and we've rolled beserk, we'll be sure to let him know about it. If you choose to engage us first, we'll also let you know what we think about it even if it means sending ourselves to slaughter but in good RP. For sure, you wont miss on any of our suicidal spam seconds before death.
But if we beserk and manage to make the cap player understand and willing that 3-4 "assault" transports filled with bloodthirsty cannibals are enough to at least "try" boarding operations on him, we'd ask for some time to discuss dice rules with him OORP.
It'd entirely be his choice to go along though.

People can always choose to neglect the RP we bring to them and decide to shoot us down upfront if they see us, or run away calling us "idiots" oorp, if that's what they're here to do in an RP server. In our opinion though, this still happens waaay too often and makes encounters often quite sterile and repetitive. Hence one of the reasons why we made this faction more fullRP orientated and tried to include some sort of boarding mechanic, to be less about simply making up bogus reasons to pewpew other players...

It's an 'amusing' idea.

Not that it's bad, but because I have done the exact same RP (:

Totaly true!

Ask Senpai(something) in the LN.

He boarded a derelict transport in New York once and never was the same again afterwards:)


Great idea and I will RP with you every chance I get:)
