Sirius Science Committee is a univeral scientifice organization, consisting of all 5 House Governments. In the spirit of understanding one another and sharing the knowledge to the evolution of man-kind. Each House Government has their primary research field, Liberty; Engine end Electronics, Rheinland; Weapons Systems, Kusari; Agricultural Developement, Bretonia; Alloy Development, and Gallia; Chemical and Biology. All House Governments have freedom of other fields, however, the primary fields takes priority. Ships under SSC contract are free-to-roam.
Requirements for being under contract with SSC:
For E.V(Exploritory Vessel), ships range from freighters and up.
For S.V(Science Vessel), ships can only range from freighters to starship liners.
For S.E(Security Escort), Fighters, Freighters, Gunboats, and capital ships(If you can aquire one), providing protection for S.V(If entering hostile and open space) and E.V(If required)
S.V ships are to carry Researcher IDs in order to carry haz/bio materials.
E.V can have non-military/outlaw IDs.
Any freelancer IDs, Civilian Freelancer to Smuggler Freelancer IDs, are valid(Including IDs like Zoner ID).
Station construction is still awaiting authorization. 5 Primary Stations are in queue for construction in each House territory. Donations funds for construction will go a long way. Ships under SSC contract are held to various obligations. Here is the Contract;
By signing this contract, all personal are not to divulge information if Illegal action has been conducted. If ordered to do so by House Military/Law Enforcers, you are to respond by notifying them that they are to contact SSC and explain the crime that had, supposedly, have committed. All acusations are to be reported to our Legal Department. Please Enter your name and your ship's name, to ensure that records of SSC Employment is authentic and abides by the SSC Contract.
Example of Information is to be entered:
Name:
*Ship Name:
ID:
* Only applies to E.V and S.V based craft. If fighter is dubbed with a name, like Echo-5, This feild will be required to be filled.
For those that sign up, Welcome to the Sirius Science Committee.
For House Governments and Militaries only
Ships under contract with SSC are to be considered neutral, reguardless of current relations with that House Government. If actions are taken against SSC Contracted ships, lawsuits will be pressed agains House Government for unprovoked attackes on SSC Ships. List of ships under contract with SSC will be maintained to ensure safety of our interests and your own. If there are any further questions reguarding SSC Holdings, please contact on another channel.
Not sure if this is an in role play thread or an information thread, if its the former say so and a mod might invis my post. Just stuff from my lookie at your stuff.
It is called Sirius Science Committee, yet you're including Gallia. Odd.
You're using the Researcher ID - which no longer exists.
You do not get to dictate to the house governments how to treat your vessels, nor will your lawsuits do anything to them. You'd be filing it with them and I doubt you'd have any legs to stand on if your ships are breaking their laws. You're little rant to them will likely get you off on the wrong leg with all of them.
Interesting concept though. Needs far more thought put into it though. Good luck with it though.
// I think it is rather presumptuous to assume that the House Governments will simply fall in line with your roleplay, particularly with regards to fields of specialty. Realistically, each House Government would do work in all of those fields, simply to keep the House itself running. Naturally, each house's scientists have their specialties, but it would be a poor choice to be too restrictive.
As for your ships; are you actually intending to operate as a formalised faction in-game? If so, your ship choice is particularly ambiguous and wouldn't seem to follow the general guidelines about faction creation. You cannot simply mix-and-match IDs to suit what ships you want; it is much better to select an ID and work with that ID's limitations. Your information is also out of date, since the Researcher ID and the Smuggler ID do not exist any more. Also, the Zoner ID is not a generic ID like the Freelancer or Pirate ID; it is a faction ID, with specific lore and roleplay related to that ID.
Lastly, you cannot tell the Governments how to treat your ships. No one is above the law, particularly a brand new group with no history behind them.
To reiterate, you cannot simply assume that your roleplay will include the House Governments without contacting them first, either in-character or out-of-character. The most amusing assumption is the belief that all five houses would work together in harmony for the sake of science; quite frankly, Bretonia will never work with Gallia and Liberty would not work with either Rheinland nor Gallia.
Edit:
' Wrote:...we are ultimately the ones responsible to ensure that the console you use, the systems which almost every navy uses, the Trade Lane Grid from failing, requiring millions to repair, are in complete and working order. We do not know how such a government, such as Liberty, can miss one of the most crucial organization of Sirius. We fund many of Sirius's universities, in the hopes of a united community. ...
So, do you actually have any idea about the lore and history of Discovery's Sirius Sector?
Because I nearly fell off my chair laughing when I read this.
Given that, as far as I'm aware, you made this faction without contacting the relevant governments which you claim contribute to your RP, I dont think you can be surprised at a hostile reaction (just pre-empting your reaction when you read the response by the Republic of Liberty account). I asked the relevant folks in the TROL skype chat, which consists of Leaders and SICs of six Liberty official factions, and they were either silent or voiced that they had no idea who you are.
Now, for you to come in and contradict vanilla lore, particularly the part about trade lanes and jump gates, to our face... that's asking for hostility. Liberty protects her interests as any nation does, and for you to claim that you, and not Ageira Technologies, are reponsible for the gate network strikes me as a few things. Lets go over the InRP things first:
- Liberty, as a nation that derives its size and dominance from the trade of information and technology, will protect those assets with every fibre of its being. Anybody claiming to have the technology to do what they do are violating a stack of patents taller than the Empire State Building, which does not come without its repercussions. This information and technology is not shared; all the know-how is kept in-house. For you to claim that this is not the case is basically a declaration of war on the foundations of dominance that the Republic of Liberty stands upon, and trust me when I say that they will act to protect their interests by any means necessary.
Now, the OORP stuff:
- Your RP contradicts vanilla lore. In fact, the RP of Gallia contradicts vanilla lore as well, but you were not written by Igiss or the dev team.
- You didn't contact any of the established Liberty factions before claiming their things to be your things.
- You expect us to play along when you did not discuss these issues with us.
- I expect this is true for most of the other houses as well, although Liberty is my only charge.
- You're telling houses to give your ships diplomatic immunity, when it is in fact the decision of those houses about who to give diplomatic immunity to.
- You are a new group with no established reputation or matured connections. Therefore, you cannot start at the end as a big multinational research group which demands and gets provided with whatever it wants from the houses. You have to build that reputation, like the Reavers for example built theirs.
And yes, I replied on the TROL account to your post. With the full support of everyone else in the Republic of Liberty skype chat, which contains all of the people who are relevant to the Liberty government.
Frankly, I think the concept of this faction is one big powergame, and the Republic of Liberty will not play along and legitimise it.

I'm basically going to echo McNeo on Bretonia's behalf. Scientific groups are well and fine, but when you undermine lore by attempting to take credit for things which are well beyond your scope... that will raise hackles. As will dictating how others are to treat your ships.
Gallic, not Gallians. Honestly, from reading your roleplay with Liberty this is either a troll 'thing' or you're one of the dimmest crayons in the box.
Liberty (along with all of the other houses) have been dealing with cardamine issues for far longer than your little group has been around. They are far ahead of you in that department. Telling them what they already know only makes your group look ignorant.
Claiming Malta is uninabitable is power gaming and is far from true.
I'm thinking this is merely a troll thing as you've yet to reply to a fair number of critisisms regarding your group.
Wow,I'm not sure where to start on this one.Mine humble expirience tells me that this idea cant come to life.To include Gallia in your commitee,when they are on the virge of Sirius wide invasion,and to expect that other Houses accept you without knowing you in game.Nice concept though....
Maybe if you use the commitee as some form of defence commitee from invasion of Gallia....
An independent group of scientists who dont give a damn about war, working together for whatever nefarious objectives of sirius domination sounds plausible, a group backed by governments from all houses, including gallia? Not sure about that, specially because of this:
Quote:In the spirit of understanding one another
They are trying to kill each other, not get along.
I'd suggest picking one ID, not all available, build your own background story and reputation from the ground, negotiate actual contracts from the factions and governments of sirius, and giving your employees a good dental plan.
As for Rheinlands side, you are not going to tell the Rheinland Military how to treat your ships. While I do agree that Rheinland has good weapon systems, you or your organisation hardly had anything to do with that.
You are assuming that the government is part of your group, while your group is merely part of houses that are controlled by governments, of which you are not part of at the moment.
*sniffs*
The OP smells like powergaming.
Edit: Although I am still under the impression that this is just a giant troll.
