I'd suggest looking at either a new Unioner faction or ressurecting the [W] with Kress' OK, support, or help. The Hogasha could use some more representation, too. Other than that, either give the OCs another enemy (Cryer) or give them thar tree-huggers something to shoot at (Planetform).
If anybody is looking for a lowdown corporate faction: Daumann or Kruger, please! Hessians need a faction to hate more than Corsairs:P
More background info: Daumann Construction and Kruger Minerals are the two great corporations in control of the vast mining industry in Rheinland. Due to their status and position they are invariably tied in with the government, which will go out of it's way to protect their interests. Both the companies have a history of worker abuse, but that is mostly hidden from the media these days, though both still push their limits thus enraging Bundschuh and Hessians even more. Both companies mine and ferry primarily diamonds from Dresden (Kruger and Daumann) and Omega-11 (Daumann). In general, Daumann is the more powerful of the two due to Kruger's failure to expand to the Sigma systems, which more or less started the 80 years war with the GMG and closed any further attempts of Rheinland expansion into that area.
I would say for more background go and dock on all the Rheinland corporate bases and read the rumours and base infocards. Some of them are rather interesting.
With Daumann, Kruger, or ALG, you have the advantage of being allied to an already existing player faction: RepEx with Daumann (I think), and Gateway with Kruger or ALG (plus with ALG, you'd get that beautiful new ship...). Either way, you're engaged with some good pirates and with an active corporate ally.
Well two companies would be Samura, and or Kishiro, it would help balance things out in Kusari.
