SCRA and non combat life

[Exsiled_one]

So as I talked with Alvin about his citizen Katz and his political engagement in Ontario to liberate it and free it from the shackles of capitalism I realized he can offer alot, but not as SCRA actually.
So we talked about flowers and teddy bears etc, and his plans about Ontario so I started to think more about SCRA.

They have 60% mobilization, notoriously crazy commander who won the bloody revolution after SCRA actually thought about allying with Alliance (say that three times fast). Ofcourse, he thought (and hes bretonian) that alliance is silly and that it's time to terminate all those that think like that.
They have awesome ship building skills (no wonder they won on SOL), they have a corsair with an metal hand (!!) and their admittance into golden wings and similar fleet squads is deadly.

On the other hand they don't harm civilian line at all, they are there to liberate people, after all. And this is great, not great, but awesome. So they have a goal, and they are determined to accomplish this liberation with minimum casualties as possible. So they are political as well as militant activists.

The "unlawful" (yes i placed quotation marks because I don't believe any Rheinland unlawful group was actually evil, corporations pushed those people to edge) Rheinland factions are allied with SCRA. They believe SCRA can bring a difference, or do they? Do they actually believe that, or they just need military help against targets of RM etc? Because I would like to believe that SCRA wouldn't just be "used" like this. I believe there's mutual benefit from this, like SCRA getting materials for their ships etc.

Now we have 60% mobilization of about 1million people. What are rest doing, if you ignore women and children ofcourse, there's a good hefty sum of population that could be working towards getting the supplies to their planet, mining the ore and doing whatnot.
I'ld like to believe that people with skills and agenda to actually "liberate" people from their capitalist oppression do have more to offer than "we'll mobilize you, and most of you will die because our trainings are accompanied by live munition"

Will people be able to develop Sirius Coalition Revolution into something deeper, or will they always stay as a minor fleet of death?

There's only so much we are allowed to do.

We're not sure about the percentage that is mobilised, 60% would be very rough, since it is hardly relevant. It's like asking how many Corsairs are pirates, it has little effect on the game.

Also, women are mobilised at the same rate as men. So, civilians would be 50% women, 50% men. I imagine civilians would do regular jobs on the stations, fuel processing, food production, construction et cetera.

We don't know exact population either, since it doesn't matter to the game. What matters is spaceships.

I would personally like to see expansion and more operations of various types, but we are limited to having a single system, which I don't see changing soon.

but we are limited to having a single system

Isn't there a jump hole forming in your system?
Could mean a bit more for the SCRA in the future

Well I was generally thinking about miners, traders and small freighter ships that could be used. It is not like all mining should be done from planet.
Basically, what I was asking is:
"Will the SCRA ever form bit more on expansion than simple PVP at the moment. I think SCRA offers good roleplay possibilities that go beyond PVP and that it should be used and formed."

Well. With the new Update the SCRA will hopefully get their new Ships. That means a Transports. Afew Trades could be done. With Zoners for example.

Yue made a mining Ship for the SCRA, but currently stopped due to the new Models. It would be awesome to have a Coalition Trader flying the Tornado. A small frighter would nice aswell. I'm gonna ask Yue about that.

Hey, we're always willing to sell a few transports. Borderworlds DL transport is a fine ship. I love mine!

SCRA doesnt really have a lot of friends to trade with, i'm still going to fly that new transport though, but probably only dealing with prisoners and captured pilots.

as for coalition resources, i dont think we need to trade much, it's too capitalistic, and we make engine components, hull panels, pharmaceticals, light arms, and we have a gas miner (just going off what coalition bases sell, i'm guessing that means they're made there)

There are significant populations on both planets in O-52, Volgograd and Jiangxi. The limitation on custom systems of NOT having dockable planets made these not have docking rings, but they do have populations on them that farm, mine, construct, and generally live out their productive lives like good little Socialists.

It's very hard to expand your roleplay, which is to take over the world in a sense, when you're flat told that you will not expand past your one system, and you're lucky to have that. The Coalition isn't part of the Discovery story line; we're an easter-egg if you will. That little something extra that makes everything that little bit better.

We make the best of the situation we're offered, which is why at the moment, we're fighting with the Rheinland Revolutionary Alliance, and starting ties with the Liberty Revolutionary Front as well.

As for the JH...ssshhhh!

As for transports? and mining ships? We don't need either (my opinion). The Coalition might use both, but the SCRA aka the Sirius Coalition Revolutionary Army, has no use for a mining ship, or (really) a transport. We're the FIGHTING ARM of the Coalition. Sure, it'd be an interesting sight to see an AN-225 (oops, I mean Tornado) flying around, but let the NPCs do it. Same w/ the mining ship. NOT player accessible.

Or player accessible as another, civilian, faction.

After all, you don't see Liberty Navy miners.

Blunt gets me.
And thats why I have posted, in my first post this:

"Will people be able to develop Sirius Coalition Revolution into something deeper, or will they always stay as a minor fleet of death?"

sirius coalition revolution, without an army. If you consider it an easter egg, why can't the easter egg be better, i am sure there are players that would be happy to roleplay as "civilian" in one system only, making that system bloom like parade on 1.5. of every year.

Things like that could be done and I'm sure there's a playerbase that would cover it. If not, it's not like alot is lost.

As for Doc, the current ID does not support trading, but I think something could actually be done with SCRA affiliation and Civilian ID.
Actually yeah, that could work perfectly.
