Would it be a good choice to try to get the GMG their own faction? A couple of us have been going over their history if anyone has extra info, and ideas. We've been running around trying to see all the possibilities set as the GMG(Most likely mining and trading in rp related). Perhaps securing Sigma-13 would be a start for it. I been thinking the Gas Miner would be a good ship for newcomers to start off with. As for ships I've noticed there were few ships created exactly for GMG.

You'll need a half billion deposit.

I got got already a GMG char so i would be interested.
But i think it will be a very hard work to get a good background story.
As for ships it should be civilan ships beside the already given GMG ones (including Kusari Explorer)
No battleship at all of course.
' Wrote:You'll need a half billion deposit.Makes 100 millions each if you can recuit the needed minimum five players for this faction.
Piece of cake i think.

on the contrary. they did fight back rheinland in the 80-years-war, so they should have BSs.

GMG faction has a lot of potential. It has the best HF (Taiidan HF) and one of the best bombers (Taiidan bomber), while it also has a pretty good VHF - Stinger.
I think that these 3 ships are all that you need of fighters.
No Eagles, no Falcons, no Vipers, no Raven Talons etc.
Use GMG ships, it will add your RP more.
Plus, GMG has one of the best 8.33 weapons - Skyblasts, which work great on Taiidan HF's.
You could maybe use some other weapons, like IMG or Kusari - not sure about that.
History wouldn't be a problem, as GMG has quite a good history, which can't be said for some other factions.
RM war, Exploring of Sigma's, moving from Honshu to Sigma-13 etc, deals with Samura and Kishiro etc.
It can be quite interesting.
Also, fighters/escorts shouldn't be used for hunting pirates and so on.
They should protect GMG convoys (NPC's or PC's) and GMG bases.
Kusari explorer is a standard GB for GMG, but I would recommend one single Talarca cruiser as a flagship, nothing larger then that.
I'm not even sure that one is needed.
I can't wait to see a real GMG faction in action. There was one before you, like Lcorp or something similar.
And they failed, they vanished after a week.
So, you have to do it carefully and very good.
Good luck.

They didn't win with battleships. They won with their bombers and their gas clouds.

Okay... here we go again.
No, they shouldn't. They beat Rheinland due to the advantages the battlefield was giving them and excellent tactics, not firepower.
EDIT: Chopper beat me to it.:P

Thank you all for the information this is all very helpful. Trading 500 million won't be a problem at all seeing as I have a feel for it. The ship sugesstions is a very very good idea. I've actually never gotten to fly these vessels just yet I suppose I will check them out soon.
