I honestly (mostly) don't know any more about what's goin' on w/ the gaians than the rest of us. I just chewed on what I had to go on for long enough to see massive opportunity for the faction to become the best it's ever been.
I'm excited as hell about learning all the rest of it & seeing what kind of stew I can cook up
I've tried the pirate and the treehugger way too. When I was an indie gaian with some of my friends, we used it to rob traders across Bretonia. Some weeks later I've met with some NLH folks and a short time after joined to them. After that I've tried to focus on the Planetform, OSC, BMM problem.
I cant proclaim, that the robbery (BMM for example) cant fit with the gaian RP but I wanted to focus on the planet, since as I realised that was the reason about the gaian resistance.
It will be more complicated in the 86, so the faction could be better than ever.
