While I always find roleplay about non-canon worlds quite odd... the faction itself, their activity generated both ingame and on forums gets my Omicron's Seal of Approval. Hopefuly they wont end up the same way as Commonwealth did, Solars have been around for quite a long time and evolved considerably as a concept since original attempts as far I can see.
Nice to hear the responses we've been getting from the community. Thank you to all that support us during this time
More over, some people might of noticed how we have two IMG battlecruiser's. Let me just reassure some people, we Runner's have had the Vanguard and Supernova for almost a full year now but have stopped using them inRP due to the tech-chart problem's however we hope to SRP either the both of them or even just one of them.
Before one asks where they came from, the first one we bought from the IMG (Henderson's help) which would of been the Supernova, which we used for diplomatic situations and exploring (inRP). A week after that, we requested a second one which was the Vanguard however instead of just paying for it, we had to build it and also pay for it (which we had no problem with).
Both of them as we speak will remain on the shipyard in Omicron 74 until the RP with the OSI and possibly the Junkers (part 2 after the OSI we have planned) is completely so that we can move them to Singapore shipyard and have the IMG help us fix them.
Our plan is simple sure but we have more then just the basic steps ready for both the Supernova and Vanguard, namely in this order
Quote:1.1: Get help from OSI to repair the malfuctioning systems of both the Vanguard and Supernova
1.2: Get help from either the Congress or Marauders in rebuilding the damaged hull of both ships
2.1: Get both ships mobile and get them to Omega 49 where our jump ship rests
2.2: Contact IMG and request help in rebuilding the vessels
2.3: Jump both the Vanguard & the Supernova to IMG space and turn them over to them so they can be repaired
2.4: Once repaired, bring both the two ships back to Omicron 74 by either Jump ship OR space flight.
3.1: Prep both ships for an exploration mission into either deep space of either-
3.1A: Omicron Delta Deep Space mission
3.1B: Omicron Zeta Deep Space mission
3.1C: Omicron Lost Deep Space mission
3.2: Begin RP for deep space exploration (this has a high chance of being a forum related RP thing with allies, friends and whatnot)
3.3: Bring back both ships (Or only one if the other does not make it) and check the results
3.4: Go over results with Runner allies/friends
From there, it will all depend on how it plays out of course. For now we don't have a name for this but were planning it out still
For the love of god, Why do you people always preffer The Order. Don't get me wrong, Theres nothing wrong with that - But If theres going to be another faction It would be more intresting to see them joining The Core, That's if you claim you are different from other factions - And I have yet to see the evidence of that.
Our diplomacy is based off of what we see. What we are involved in. We don't really take sides, although we have our own opinions on people, as they do of us (Thus the reputation list)
If the Core floats around us and are reasonable, they'll probably move up on our list. It's as we see them.
We're not going to be biased. The one thing I refuse to let this faction have is a locked reputation sheet. (Besides perhaps the Nomads hostile)
Afterall, we're Zoners. We don't pick fights. There's no need to hate people, the only way they can go is up unless they pull something stupid.
I realize by default its the order, because of convinience or other, but It doesn't feel like much is going to change with you being official if everything is more or less the same as others, with a slight exception of R&D here and RP there.
However, It might just be me with the problem, because I do look forward for a faction that doesn't focus on R&D and being hippies all day long - but rather taking risks and living wildly.
Solar Runners on default started at neutral with Order. It's just it was bumped to allied thorough past role-play to the current stance you can see at this write up.
