Look, i don't mind any of these.
Quote:-We Explore for new resources...Implying fighter wings.
-Send out Expeditions to investigate those resources...Implying cruisers and gunboats to help defend our explorers.
-We then Aquire those resources...Possibly using a battleship(s) to secure the area, while our transports run back and forth...
All quoted is not my concern, i did have some complaints about cap ships, but they are not that important, as are other things.
Yes, they look like Asians, but, so do Blood Dragons.
That doesn't give them the right to use Kusari ships.
For example. Hogosha are friends of KNF, helping them in a war etc (not official, it is all a secret to population of Kusari).
Hogosha is in the same time an enemy of GMG.
If KNF would put your faction to more then neutral stance (if you have neutral and bellow, you simply can't use Kusari ships), then Hogosha would have to reconsider their diplomacy.
Which i personally don't mind, it is up to the KNF to make their decision.
It is not as simple as : "Hey, he's Asian, give him a Catamaran".
That's all I'm saying.
Further, you want to use Kusari Explorers + Kusari Gunboats.
Now, Explorers fit really great in your faction, but why gunboats?
Quote:Kusari Explorer(One every two players)
Kusari Gunboat(Counts as an explorer)
Why would you use gunboats as explorers?
If you are specialized in exploring, then you should use Kusari Explorer.
Or even Spatial, IMG would gladly give you those.
And again, you need a KNF approval for Gunboats.
Skyblasts are weak for shields? Well, use Debilitators.
No one said you have to use skyblasts.
You can use Nomads, Codes, even Kusari weapons.
But all lootable is really too much, and i think everyone who reads this topic would agree with me.
You say you have chosen a more effective option.
But is this option good for RP?
Have you considered that?
I mean, if you are allowed to loot and mount weapons, why wouldn't Outcasts be allowed?
Or Corsairs?
I can already see Outcasts with Tizonas and Corsairs with Krakens.
It is a lousy solution, sorry, but i had to say that.
Quote:So, we should be allowed to have a variety of ships in our forces, so long as they're GMG, Zoner, Kusari(with KNF approval), Kishiro, and civilian...
Yes, but I have to say it again. Variety has to be logical.
And using Catamaran, or Havoc II is not logical.
No one would buy a bomber on "alternative market" if they are manufacturing their own.
Use Taiidans.
Edit :
' Wrote:The "Tsar" Isn't an official title, rather it was an in-joke so stop taking it so damn seriously.
And can we stop going on about the exploration? You implement the mining of gas clouds and we'll freaking do it, until then we'll do it exactly the same way as the GMG Npc's do. Immovable stations do the mining, we do the fighting and transporting.
And the reason I'm getting irratated by 'suggestions' is because they ARE NOT SUGGESTIONS, rather your picking my idea apart and saying "NA-UH DON'T GO THERE SISTER", simply because you don't like the idea and think we're full of crap doesn't make it so. Most of the people who have posted haven't even SEEN us operate yet and are merely going under nothing but your own assumptions. Get over it.
I'm trying to be lenient and make changes that will be suitable but instead my entire faction is being flamed because the rest don't like the idea of having someone that's actually armed.
Actually, i have given you more then a few suggestions.
And you argued about every single one.
You haven't even said that it will be considered.
And i doubt they have been considered.
If someone tells me that he wants his faction to use best weapons because he can't chase off pirates from Sigmas, and may i remind you that one of your folks said that, then something is wrong.
Nothing is lost here, no one is destroying your faction.
But it will not last long unless you do some radical changes, and this really is a suggestion.
You are new guys here, and you should at least listen the critiques that some old-timers have to say.
