Hey there! So, I haven't played in a very, very significant period of time - as in, I stopped playing about the time Gallia actually existed on Discovery.
However, a friend of mine has convinced me to create an Exiles character to roll with him. The problem is, he's a Developer on here and doesn't really have time to walk me through everything and teach me the ropes, as he's a pretty busy dude and that's alright with me.
So, I'm coming to you guys to help me out a little bit!
I've got plenty of money, seeing as how I actually enjoy trading, but I want to know my limitations as a Kusari Exile.
My personal goals are to have four ships for Kusari Exiles - a Fighter, a Bomber, a Gunboat and a Cruiser. I understand from the Wikipedia on Kusari Exiles that there are a limited number of the 'capital ships'(Gunboats and Cruisers), and was wondering if I'm personally not allowed to create one, however, if I am allowed to do so, am I suppose to do a Kusari ship?(I assume yes, but I figure it is better to ask instead of just automatically creating one.)
In addition to these questions, I was wondering if I could find a link to the current 'storyline'? In the above wiki, it sends me to this as a link, however, this link transfers me no where and I would like to read up more upon the current storyline.
I suppose there is no real limit as to how many capital vessels the Exile players will field unless you are part of a more organized group which wants to restrict them somewhat. Just keep in mind that the Kusari Battlecruiser and the Battleship are not allowed as per ID rules.
As for the story line I am having trouble finding a link to it at the moment, but if you have any specific questions I can try to answer them.
Well, I ask about the limit because it does say upon the Wiki that the Exiles field a total of 5 Battleships/cruisers, 10 Destroyers, 25 gunboats and a few wings of fighters/bombers.
As much as I'd like to just straight up fly a Cruiser, I don't want to see OORP.
No there is really nothing stopping you from flying a Kusari destroyer, I have seen a handful of independent Exile destroyers floating around Bretonia and there is nothing against the rules or lore about fielding them.
As for my next question, is there an official Exiles faction and/or any known Exile players that I could get into contact with and possibly arrange some stuff?
