Eh, Vape - you know 'Kinoyami' is the name of your ship, right? =)
I pm:ed Xing and asked about the Phoenix's status. If it gets into next version, and fill the role somewhere between a GB and destroyer, maybe we can use it for our M-B.

Destroyer = no. Even if you don't value my opinion on the matter, value this: you *will not* get accepted with destroyers in the ship list. You don't need them- really. Destroyers are used by military. Police don't deal with stuff that needs serious equipment: they hand it off to military. Not necessarily full military, but imagine something like the National guard.
Gunboats are also iffy, I'd say its better to have catamarans...

Forgive me if I'm wrong, wrathkin-sama and bass masta-sama, but the impression I get from the reasons for larger ships is for prestige and face ( ie RP ) not to pound on crims .

So, you an admin Sovereign?
We don't got no national guard. We have the merged Samurai police. (based on the fact that Kusari is a shogunate, with only one police faction)
If LoTeK_ will not accept the destroyers, they will go. I'd really like something for the M-B to fly in 4.85 in that case, however.
EDIT: =) Look, Drifter84 got it in the first try! *applause*

Aye its something to proud of and watch down on other while your citizens starve while you fly aroud in your big ship:)

If you get a destroyer or more then those 2 gunboats - two thumbs down from me.
In that case, we will wait for another group who will want to work on KSP seriously.
Seriously.
Please read BPA, LPI and RFP faction request posts. And try to do something similar.
Chimaeras - no.
Gunboats - no.
Cruisers - NO.
Battleships - NO
If you make a faction with cap ships and VHF's, there will be no need for a Navy.
And there is a KNF to work on larger problems you know?
You can't take their part away.
So stick to yours - scanning and fining smugglers, fighting smaller criminals.
Don't try to be heroes.
In wyrms and dragons.

Applying face to keyboard.
To summarize:
All police factions must be clones!
All capital ships are teh evilzor!
Tell me this. Let's say we get twenty active members. That would make me want four Yoriki. That would mean, if we remove bombers/vhf which at least some seem to prefer, that we have four gunboats and twenty wyrm. Now, those gunboats will not fly together so - how can the KSP usurp the KNF? When the KSP won't go outside the Kusari (peace time) borders?
As for the insane focus on the _possibility_ of a police faction getting destroyers, no matter the reason - phew! This may be a RP server, but I sure see a lot of OORP arguments. Or rather, a lot of CAPZ BADZ0R.
As I see it, the destroyer is the minimal ship that is more powerful than the ships _anyone_ can get and fly around in. If gunboats were seriously limited, I'd happily settle for that, but gunboats are about as uncommon as a Volvo in Sweden. Foreign DD, CA, and friggin' BATTLECRUISERS are allowed to roam free.
The base of a state is monopoly on violence, aight? If foreigners can enter with DD/CA/BC the police needs to be able to at least be a credible threat, even if that force is never used.
I would really like an intermediate 'Command' ship (created from Xing's beautiful model, perhaps), and _all_ foreign capital ships to be prohibited from entering house space (by law, not rules, and for all houses). Then I'd drop the issue of Destroyers in a heartbeat. Because _that_ would automatically make any capship intruders a military matter.
