Well, start-up bonus could be delayed until a member has shown their worth I suppose, though I think 10 mil is too high personally. You only need about 15 mil for the best VHF setup money can buy, I'd rather know my wingmen have at least worked a little to get where they are ;0)
The problem with limiting the first instalment to $1-2 million is it also limits our new member's ship choices. Don't forget our signature fighter, the Templar, costs just over $2 million. As it stands, $5 million is a bit easier on our budget and at the same time not a devastating loss should we feel the need to kick a newbie. I recommend keeping it simple.

K, definitely like following the KISS (Keep it simple stupid) principle whenever possible. 5 mil on joining should do. Maybe another 5mil upon reaching lieutenant but that'll be dependent upon cash flow. For now, just 5 mil on joining.

I agree with Firebird almost one hundred percent. However, I think that if we work with out traders (and BS) we may be able to get a little more credits in the new recruits pockets. Possibly 5 mil upon joining, and maybe a bonus when ranked to Lieutenant, but depending on their involvement, or significant other, to the SF.
EDIT: Also, if needed, I can spend time determining who is still active with SF. If we have not seen members on for a while, I can PM or other.

By all means, on the faction page you'll find names with (?) beside them, I've yet to hear anything regarding their status. Also, if everyone could send me a PM with all your SF chars that would save me having to look at everyone's sig.

Here's to let everyone know I went overboard with my recruiting powers tonight, and so we have 3 new recruits in SF :0)
I can vouch for them as trustworthy players, I've played on several other servers with most of them before and taught them what I know, though they've had a bit of a break from FL so may be a bit rusty to start off. These players are:
Lawncakes
Trip
Seal
Seal is actually pretty new to Freelancer but the other guys should hopefully have him on level in no time. I've known them all from other games and FL for a pretty long time so if you guys have any questions, don't hesitate to throw them at me. They've had a little prep talk and have been assigned Hussar Light Fighters to train in. Please welcome them as new members of our 2nd Royal Squadron :0)

I've updated the faction post to include info for squadron/fleet assignments. If certain members tend to be on the server at the same time I'd like to place you into the same squadron/fleet.
The Cambridge Defense Fleet consists only of ships that intend to stay and defend bretonian space.
For the 1st and 2nd Royal Squadron's I would like to name a capital ship as home base. For the 1st, I'm thinking the SFBS-Sierra would be a good choice.
Note, if you want/plan to get a capital ship in the future, choose the name and let me know so I can give it an appropriate assignment in the fleet.
ADDED: Changed cruiser designation to SFCR so that all capships designations appear as 4 letters and smaller vessels have 3. Also added SFFG for frigates. Hopefully, no one has a cruiser char yet.

First of all, Admiral Firebird, I will start the plans for Battleship Sierra immediately. However, it may be some time due to my busy lifestyle. I will have a gunboat comissioned for the SF first, in case of intruders, and Battleship Sierra will come in the time following. A deadline has not been placed into Southampton Shipyard, but I will have one for them soon. 1st Royal Squadron/2nd Royal Squadron, I hope to have Sierra readied for battle immediately.

Ya no worries, I'm still working on getting my ships up to speed like everyone else. I'm just looking for having an idea/plan on what's being developed by who.
Example: I'll be working on developing a BS and fighter and some other capship for storage (likely a cruiser, frigate or liner). The Magnificent hasn't even been created yet but once it is it'll be part of the defense fleet.
I'll have the Sierra temporarily assigned as home base for both 1st and 2nd squadrons. Would like another vessel to be home for one of the squadrons though so looking for someone to create another BS or large capship.
Hyperwave is the gunboat going to be more or less stationed in bretonia, if so I'll assign it to the Cambridge Defense Fleet.

Admiral, Battleship Sierra would be proud to take on the position as the home base for the 1st and 2nd Royal Squadrons.
Just about every one of my ships stays in Bretonia on a regular basis, with the following exceptions:
I receive a distress call from an ally, e.g. Rheinland Military
I have to fix roleplay reputation by attacking Kusari forces in the Tau systems
I have a miscellaneous reason to go out somewhere.
However, my templar, Thames, will probably be the one that leaves Bretonia to get things.
My battleship will only leave if required/requested by an ally or higher member of command or to destroy Kusari Forces.
Finally, my gunboat will remained stationed in New London or Cambridge at all times unless active. At this time, it will move throughout the direct jurisdiction of the SF. This character will never leave Bretonia, so you can place him on the Bretonian Defense Force.
Additionally, Admiral, not sure if Captain Lance talked to you about this, but he is forming the Elite Capital Ship unit. He has asked me to join, and I accepted, and I will use SFBS-Sierra for this function. However, Sierra's functions will be both to the squadrons, and the capital ship force.

K, no prob with the creation of the elite capital ship unit, named the group Excaliber Assault Fleet and assigned Lance as command ship. Gunboat assigned to the Defense Fleet.
ADDED: Thx to Wolfpack, I have received compensation money for player wipe and distribution has begun. The following members have yet to receive compensation and will be given it as soon as I can (compensation is 20 mil):
Badger
Hyperwave22
Teaboy
Willikins
Trajin
Nuingaer
Fifty
Demo
Nynx
Seal
And new recruits from now on will receive 5 mil for joining.
