Quick question guys

[Dab]

Faction status is up to date, and the faction creation rules as well.

The faction listings in Firebird's post are not fully up to date. Alot of those factions are gone, and we now have some new ones.

The diplomacy map is also in need of an update, it still has DJC and MiD on it..

I don't think any factions are taxing systems. Though there are large amounts of pirates among Honshu, Omega-5/41. You'd probably be free of pirates mostly in the Rheinland area, and Omicron Theta. The former isn't heavily populated by pirates, just my Wraiths and the Scythes. And Omicron Theta is a no-hostilities zone which AW maintains. *Points to the 4 dumb dumbs who thought they should pirate in Omicron Theta when there were 3 AW in the system.*

Liberty is pretty devoid of pirates too, but its been the site of a war that just ended, and there are still hostilities there, mostly Bs| and Xenos attacking SA (the Liberty Navy faction).

We now have a faction for every house, KNF in Kusari, SF in Bretonia, RM for Rheinland, and SA for Liberty. We also have gained a Corsair faction for the GoR to pick on.

I believe BSG has chosen IMG which is in the middle of the war between Bretonia and Kusari (SF vs. BAF, though its not a big active war with fleet engagements, just shooting if they see each other.).

We have our Junkers, JOS, and AW is still the Zoner tag.


Pirate factions:

HF - Lane Hackers (more merc than pirate, probably won't shoot you out of the sky)
Wraith - Bundschuh
Scythe - LWB
TBH - Corsair
GoR - Outcasts
NovaPG - Blood Dragons
Then alot of independant pirates.

Phantoms still alive and kicking, stepping up their amount of attacks as of late.

Then we got Bs| as the Order, SiN|Tech, our local mutant-maker and dealer in errr.. Drugs I should say.

Then a few more factions.

Stay clear of Taus if you don't want to be in the middle of an NPC war with BSs, cruisers, GBs, level 10 house fighters, etc..
