Military ID

[Guyton]

I've been here for years and one thing I've never understood the purpose of is the Military ID. Is it for ships willing completely ally themselves with house military or all military like forces. If so what is their purpose just the side aids and what IFF should they exactly have?

it depends much on perception of roles. - in a way.... ( for example ) there could be the IMG faction - and an IMG tagged group with military ID.

in that case, the first one would be miners and workers.. the later one would be their security force. - they would have a military ID, cause "merc" doesn t fit, cause they re not for hire - and they wouldn t have IMG, cause they are no miners, but their primary duty is not mining, but fighting or protecting.

thats just an example of how the military ID might be used... other than that - its just another useless generic ID.

I thought youd be able to figure it out, obviousley I know the coalition has their own ID

I meant that Military ID's RP is for all united sirrius pilots mostly house military pirates all bulking together to fend off the Coalition.

Military ID could be considered as a paramilitary working with Lawfuls, using Lawful navy ships instead of BHG equipment. maybe?

In my eyes, the Military ID is for private military forces / militias. Jinx's example of an IMG Defense military is good, however the ID does allow them to do this already.

Possible uses of the ID could be:
-A corporation's private military / response force
-use in a militaristic religious organisation, think Agneus Dei
-a localised defense force in a house/borderworld system

I would wish for the ID to be expanded upon, perhaps making an unlawful version of the ID, or making the current one ambiguous. Tarring the ID with "Lawful" is not valid, as not all private militias and so forth would be lawful. It also brings up the opportunity for pirate/smuggler lords to have a force which does not pirate (if they needed pirate benefits they'd use the generic pirate id).

The Military ID is scheduled to be removed, at present. This may possibly be overturned, but unlikely.

I know Mjolnir made a suggestion once, somewhere, of making it a paramilitary ID. Can't remember where, though, unfortunately...

The proposed paramilitary ID would allow both lawful and unlawful military actions, essentially meaning that you could function as the military wing of any organization.
