while i agree with you for the house militaries, - how will you apply that point of view to the BHG, which has no official faction ( maybe the DW, they are official - but not representing the BHG as is, - the [Core] have ambitions to become official.... but are not yet )
what about the zoners? - you can hardly tell the TAZ to be the official zoner faction that represents all zoners, what about IMG? etc etc.
when it comes to house militaries - things are fairly easy. but all those factions that have a right to fly bigger ships ( due to their role or their location - where fighters are just rediculous ) - expecially facitons that don t have - by their role - a central leadership. and there are pirate groups. well, the corsairs have a council of elders - which acts as a leadership. - but what kind of leadership have the mollys, the gaians, the hessians.... outcasts? not to mention that some of the factions have multiple official factions running.
