I'm not sure if you have noticed or not, but a lot of factions out there are designed to have a hierarchic structure. Navies, corporations, revolutionary paramilitaries and organized crime factions, it makes sense inRP to either have a boss ordering you around, be the boss ordering others around, or the mix of this two for the majority of factions on Disco. And I don't think Blood Dragons are an exception from that.

Also, on the note of capital ships...
The Blood Dragons are limited in resources, so capital ships should be rare, with a rarer exception put on the Togo, since it is designed to be sacred and a -very- special ship, so you shouldn't really see fleets of them (but indies prove otherwise, apparently).
Also, they operate in small forces, so that's why snubs are put above cap ships in most situations.

90% of factions have cap restrictions cause of the resources limitation ... make up something new

That attitude is not really good on an RP server, you know? The Blood Dragons especially iRP have only a single Togo Battleship, and only few Cruisers. If you want to play a Blood Dragon you should take their RP situation very seriously.

Well then pick another faction. The Blood Dragons are nothing new, infact, they carry old traditions from ~300 A.S. You want something new, pick something else.

And I second this, the Dragons really have only a single Togo, but people can't take that seriously. And Occam put it best when he said that their situation is very serious and not something that is to be taken lightly.
RE: Blood Dragons - KUBANA - 07-24-2014
if i join the faction as an unofficial faction of group of three people ... we will most likely buy one togo one cruiser and fighter or gunboat ...
And yes we will strictly follow dragon RP without exceptions

Or it's new BD| faction lore?

"Hachiman" Blood Dragon Gunboat

Battleships:
"Togo" Blood Dragon Battleship(//Only 1 Togo will be used)
What does this mean: while the Blood Dragons have a few Togos on the docks in Chugoku, the BD| faction has only one active Togo in their fleet, acting as their flagship and (yet to be) used only in special or major events in the future.
What does this represent to other Capital ships of the Blood Dragons (npc)? For the BD|, the other Togos are in the Shipyard awaiting for repairs and components to return to active duty (by the means on rp interactions with other factions, material gathering), or are under control of minor groups within the Blood Dragons, be they other player groups, or Indies in their fullest sense.
------------------
Regarding the OP: The Blood Dragons are not restricted in a Coalition or Nomad faction sense, and anyone can create an indie BD pilot or group. Recently two groups sprang up simultaneously, and decided it was better to merge them rather than compete for the same rp resources and scenario.
Blood Dragon influence is Kusari and it's surrounding systems. This area includes Tohoku and Omicron-92, Okinawa and the Sigma systems, the eastern Taus systems, and the border to Liberty.
As for capships, the Blood Dragons aren't like the Hessians, and lack the resources to maintain an active capital fleet without major raids on Kusari depots and trading from friendly forces (BD don't have much in natural deposits to bargain with).
You and you friends can make a fighter wing, a capital battlegroup, whatever you desire.... as long as you keep it out of Lolwut levels.
We had a sporadic existence of a lolwut group a few months ago, when KNF still managed to pull a good response at first call. I would say that group was very poor in all aspects, and not something to take example of.

Dudes, you are talking with someone that doesn't really care about faction roll play. He only want to have fun with his friends. Probably involving many caps bombarding New Tokyo.
Don't waste your time trying to reason with him in terms of roll play.
RE: Blood Dragons - Apollon - 07-25-2014
Having rank restrictions on capital ships is a vital rp asset, and it has been made for a reason. You don't expect a faction with no rank restructions to be operating correctly, most members would be flying caps all around, and over use them, especially if It's a weakly supported faction, resources-wise like the Blood dragon, It'd be a mess, you would just be defying the lore. You'd be ruining an aged decent RP.
You cannot achieve everything you wan, there are boundries put by the llore that you have to be strict to, Blood dragons aren't the Liberty navy, They don't have much resources, nor can do at the current cuirumstances with all the wars and stufff.
