Looks promising and I hope you will not play Coalition best vassals and try to do something more unique and particular. Anyway, good luck with the faction. See you in space.

Not that I mind the relationship in principle, but there must be someone who's opposed to it.
You think in the midst of all this Bretonian expansion, all the Mollys need is more enemies? Hey it's just an opinion.
The coalition is going to fight Bretonia regardless. As stated in the writeup, Coalition in the current setup is barely useful for Dublin liberation. The coalition is a low priority target and naturally, Bretonians and Corsairs will be targeted first. We also would not care about Coalition let's say in Omega-49. It will be targeted in Dublin if there will be no better targets.
1. Mollys are a rich and self-sufficient faction.
2. Mollys have suffered enough from playing the role of "socialist" junior partner in the past.
3. Mollys have no interest in assisting Coalition to defend itself in Omegas because it's draining resources from Dublin.
4. Relying on Coalition is the wrong call for faction that seeks international recognition.
Everyone else, thanks for kind and supporting words.

I don't see how any faction - with some specialist exceptions - could not find a militaristic authoritarian state, that wants to take over the entire sector and impose their political ideology, as a threat or at the very least competition.

Hopefully, there will be recruits.
Besides the highlighted part in this response, I am really interested to see where you can lead this faction. Your point number 4. is actually pretty prominent one, seeking recognition from other factions, I'd like to see how it plays out.
But the point I highlighted. The Mollys are not self-sufficient. They trade with IMG on the Hood for much of their basic needs, and the Junkers on Trafalgar for their equipment needs.
And for as long as people want gold and the Molllys have it, then they can trade it. Can't really argue with them being rich bois.
I am intrigued. Mollys were the underdog of Bretonia, not given a single bone or bait from devs and playerbase alike. I will observe your movements both INRP and OORP )))

I think at this point Bretonia's overextending itself attempting to secure Leeds while stretching its supply lines all the way to Tau-31 and going to war with the commies over Exeter.
Also they left Newcastle (a moderately-valuable system with a shipyard converted from civilian to military purposes) ungarrisoned when they moved the Grimsby out of Darlington, and they have no jumpgate to it.
It's in a very overstretched status.
Maybe making the Coalition an enemy tout court is an exageration, but personally I'd fear them way more if I'd be Bretonia than if I'd be the Mollys.
One thing, for the guy in charge: what about Poole?
