Faction Status Report Dai 343 Kaigun Kokutai - {343}
Provide a brief summary of what your faction has done this month
We've not done much. Most of our patrols were in ending in the usual fights with the KNF, we had a short run-in with a slaver and there was a small event that was a big letdown for our side.
What roleplay has your faction been involved in?
See above
Is your faction experiencing problems the community could help with?
Yes. The past few months have hit 343 heavily, and with many of our members getting frustrated with the state of affairs, we've lost a great deal of activity due to people moving on to other projects. What we need are interested people who see the possibility of Roleplay development inside a military faction that does not primarily focus on winning PvP-Engagements.
Are there any outstanding requests linked to your faction?
No. But you could finally fix the ZOI on both official and NPC ID, the new ZOI is still not in, even if the update that made it necessary happened two months ago.
Is there anything you would like to add?
Yes. As you might have noticed, many people have written far less than in the first report, and I can only reinforce every point made in the JM| report. Statements and transparency are lacking heavily here.
Addendum: Yes, this is a c/p of last month. The aforementioned sentence applies. It really doesn't help anyone to make these mandatory for every month and every faction. An open discussion would be appreciated.
Provide a brief summary of what your faction has done this month So far this month we have begun a possible restructuring of Baffin to further RP and stagnation of the area with the Crayterian Republic and Council. Along with that, new RP on refitting the old Persephone into a new and improved model.
Is your faction experiencing problems the community could help with? Right now we're trying to figure out if Baffin should be fully split with the Counil and CR|, Given to them in full, or stay as it is.
Are there any outstanding requests linked to your faction? No
Is there anything you would like to add? Approve new Persephone model plz :3
Provide a brief summary of what your faction has done this month I've been busy doing lots of forum stuff. We have also been continuing to work on our engineering manual that is not published yet to the public.
We have done some in-game flying as well as trading. Look below to get a report of all that we have done (that I remember and can recollect.)
Is your faction experiencing problems the community could help with? Yes. The community should at least read some of our lore to understand we are not a freelancer racing group but we are much more than that . We are more like a 'gang' that likes to do racing and other things.
Also if you all could be so kind as to actually register Exotic Entertainers then that would be great. Otherwise, don't be surprised if we call the hounds on your arse .
Is there anything you would like to add? Join AFC and have fun!
This month I hope to add more lore in and more writing to make things simpler to understand.
And also finish the sub-groups and add some rules regarding my entertainers for my faction members.
Faction Status Report Independent Miners Guild - IMG|
Provide a brief summary of what your faction has done this month Solid activity, some mid-level command changes and some rebuilding of structures. Nothing much that would be visible from the outside, I guess.
What roleplay has your faction been involved in? Project [New Life]: Still our main roleplay focus: "Project [New Life]", the construction of a Rehab Center in T37 to fight the Orange Dream with the help of Cryer and their Stabiline. It's in its 2nd stage still. The bonus scheme is picking up, more people are participating.
Is your faction experiencing problems the community could help with? Nothing has changed!
Mining Development: The field merging is needed, 1 large field / ore in a centralised fair place, 20+ k away from bases!
The IMG is screwed by the mining changes: Silver Ore: Mined in Omega 7 and the current position is the Kruger field with the Core 5 POB in it, plus Rheinland law forbids IMG to go there. Either finally move this base, or move the field (e.g. by doing the merger).
O3 Comet mining is still atrociously slow for our alleged multiplier. Something IS wrong with the field.
Are there any outstanding requests linked to your faction? Mining Clarification: We need these Mining Changes. Seriously. There is such a mess and IMG is not even the faction that is struck worst.
Is there anything you would like to add? I find it pretty frustrating to see that the really important aspects of these FSRs are ignored. I understand spending time on it, IF I can count on it that the problems are addressed in a reasonable time frame.
If this is not the reason, we should not be forced to write these monthly, because on a monthly basis, pretty much nothing changes.
Faction Status Report
Sirius Coalition Revolutionary Army
SCRA|
Provide a brief summary of what your faction has done this month This month for us has been a month of diplomacy and venturing into new territory. With the Order-Coalition hatchet being buried with the new peace treaty (Rephacks still pending due to Player Request still needing processing), our business with the Colonials, safeguarding TAZ during their 'exile' in addition to our newest business with the IRG it has overall been a somewhat productive month.
Is your faction experiencing problems the community could help with? At present there are no major issues that the Community can aid us with.
Are there any outstanding requests linked to your faction? Yes, our Coalition-Order Rephack requires processing in order to fully implement the Peace Treaty between the Sirius Coalition and The Order.
Is there anything you would like to add? The folks here in the Coalition and some outside of it has expressed great interest in implementing 'Volgograd Ordinance' as a new commodity within Omega-52 Link Post #316
Provide a brief summary of what your faction has done this month Oh there's been plenty. From covert flights, to fights on the front and homeland security, and beside all those things you'd expect from the Navy, there was also the Peace treaty event, I'm not sure whether there'll be anything like that again for some long while. This month has been an activity peak compared to previous recent months.
What roleplay has your faction been involved in? It has been different. Interaction within the faction and with individuals outside of it. The interactions have been quite various since there's been quite some going.
Are there any outstanding requests linked to your faction? Not for the moment.
Is there anything you would like to add? I suppose not.

Are there any outstanding requests linked to your faction? None so far.
Is there anything you would like to add? Still in the dark regarding the shipyard needed to house the new line, was previously discussing with Teerin but I think he has enough on his plate at the moment. Any info on this so we can begin dealing and RP would be greatly appreciated.
Faction Status Report Bretonian Mining and Manufacturing - BMM-
Provide a brief summary of what your faction has done this month Gold mining! Filling CWS on the occasion and a handful of indies here and there.
What roleplay has your faction been involved in? Crimson Cross + BMM Relations: There's a variety of things going on here. Primarily, it's largely a 'plot' to get BMM's nose back into the Taus to see how the situation is holding up and whether or not they can siphon profit from the area. Secondly, it also acts as a beginning to give BMM a 'darker' side. Other corporate factions have close ties with criminal organisations, which gives them layers of secrecy and worth, while BMM has none. Having the Outcasts as potential 'partners in crime' could prove beneficial for RP.
Is your faction experiencing problems the community could help with? More members? I mean, we're currently in need of some more players enthusiastic about mining like a slave.
Are there any outstanding requests linked to your faction? Nope.
Faction Status Report Prime Artificial Intelligence - PRIME|
Provide a brief summary of what your faction has done this month A little RP with CTC, the infopage has been reworked, a little background information is being produced (to enhance the immersion) and updated as regularely as possible, development RP started for a new vessel
Is your faction experiencing problems the community could help with? Objectively seen we're feeling a little neglected regarding recent changes in the game. There were and won't be any changes to promote us as a faction, rather the only change that's even linked to us will be shrinking one of our planets to a station and scaling down our territory from having a home system to having a quarter of a system. We might not be the largest faction but I think we'd at least deserve something that would make us more appealing to new players and improve the immersion (references in infocards, shipwrecks, objects in space).
Are there any outstanding requests linked to your faction? AI NPC's. Since we didn't hear any news regarding that topic I'll just assume that request got lost somewhere on the way.
Is there anything you would like to add? The Omicrons could need some work. If players don't usually go there by themselves there has to be some benefit that gets them there.
