Kusari Destroyer GMG ID & Tag

[deluca]

Would a Kusari House Destroyer with a GMG tag, ID and GMG weapons be in roleplay

I think so because GMG holds operations in Kusari space and they dont have any destroyers or caps of their own, i ask because im thinking of buying one.

Purposes:

1. Defend Sigma 13, Sigma 19 and Honshu GMG bases
2. Escort Convoys moving through GMG space
3. Harvest Organisms from the Omicron Beta Edge Nebula
4. Provide intelligence for GMG operations in the Omicron Beta Edge Nebula


So, what do the people of discovery think, In RP or OORP

meh... the imperial navy isn't the sort of military selling their hardware to everyone, seeing how conservative they are...

point taken Yue Fei, maybe i could arrange something with the KNF?

Assuming the GMG ID allows capital ships, it would make the most sense...but, aren't the GMG supposed to be renowned for their fighter prowess?

the question is not if this combination is "in roleplay" the question is - "how" you roleplay it. - why is it a kusari destroyer and not for example a kusari explorer. - why is it not a ship from the allies list of the GMG?

thats all the stuff that needs to be thought of. - the pure combination is not ooRP. it as much ooRP as a zoner juggernaut on a zoner - or an outcast dreadnought on a corsair. - it all just depends on what you roleplay.

I'm not sure they'd just hand a capital ship to anyone, considering they're needed for the war with Bretonia. Try a Talcara light cruiser. If it's not good enough, you might be able to get a Kusari explorer, as they're not used as much as the gunboat for combat.

Personally, I'd go for the Talarca or Ku explorer. I think most house militaries would be reluctant to sell such large ships to any other faction, with the only other explination being 'I stole it' which is in itself a stupid explination unless you have a REAL good RP behind it.

And I doubt the GMG at least would want to or have the capability to steal a KNF destroyer.

All that begins must end.

ya the talarca wouldve been my second choice

i appreciate the feedback guys and i'll do my best while roleplaying my new cap :)

The GMG don't use capital ships for a reason.. in RP Sigma-13 is a system where it is very easy to ambush a capital ship with fast attack craft which can disappear into the clouds quickly after striking, thus rendering the capital ship pretty much ineffective. It's how the GMG destroyed the Rheinland imperial navy during the 80 years war. I'd say the biggest capital ship the GMG would have would be a Kusari Explorer, while the security staff flies fighters and bombers.

[jdftheman]

well like derkylos said, isn't the GMG known for its guerrilla style of combat, using bombers and fighters to conduct hit an run attacks? That is how they defeated the Rheinland navy in the 80 year war.

So personally i would say that it would be ooRP for a GMG member to be using a cap ship. The only exception i could see would be the kusari explorer, for obvious reason.

But hey, that's just my opinion.

EDIT: darn, Blodo beated me to it.
