From a different point of view ... Writing the roleplay for your PvP needs is always going to be a little 'sticky'.
This is a slightly stricter server when it comes to RP as you seem to have found out.
I'd hate to think your members names will be crossing our desks very early on in your career. A little more
thought to the actual story, and not how, and who you are going to blow up, and where ...

Well if you don't know where we came from how can you point us in the right direction.. again OOC.. Those are things we like, but the clan is mature enough to adapt to any situation. We always have and we always will. But I really thank you for your concern. PS i was also informed that your the person to talk to anyway sense your the .. and i quote the People Person when it comes to the admins :>)
First, I'd like to say Welcome. Word must be spreading about Discovery.
Second. I'd like to say you're doing this correctly. Asking the existing community for input, not like another faction a couple months ago that just decided to show up. They didn't last too long.
As for your list, I think the Hessians would be the right way to go, but don't we already have the RHA? Not sure how active they are though.
But all-in-all, the Hessians might be the way to go. Plenty of RP opportunity, fairly wide area of influence, a BIG faction with little presence so far sadly, and a good chance to fight against two of the long-standing factions on the server.
Hessians have their own line of ships just introduced in this version (4.84), and they go all the way up to Cruisers.
overall, it's a good way to come aboard. I'd send a more detailed RP story to the admins for a look-see though. examples can be found Here to get you off the ground.
cmfalconer thank you for your post bro.. I think we're drilling it down, and i'll submit a proposal to the admins so I can get these guys in uniform asap. Got the read me open right now looking at stats...Hmm those fighters and bombers are challeneged.. can Red Hessians use Talons???
I'm the faction leader for the RHA, and though we're still a small faction (and poor...), we're working on it. Thanks to the three new members we've gotten recently, we've become active again, too.
However, more Hessians would definitely be welcome, even if they're more the "common Hessian", i.e., simple pirates, rather than the RHA "old school" revolutionary Hessians. Because in Rheinland, the RHA has very few allies...there's only one LWB player I've ever seen, and the Outcasts rarely venture so close to Corsair territory unless they're going go attack Gamma.
But, if you want to fight a lot, Hessian is the way to go. We're one jump away from a primary Bounty Hunter system (Omega-15), and have bases in three systems that also include a major Corsair base; and we're close to Gamma, and there's always lots of Corsairs to fight. From what I've heard and seen, Hessian might be your best bet. Always lots of traders coming through Rheinland, as well.
Only thing is to be sure to get your RP set up; looks like that's what you're doing, and it's good to see. I'll be keeping an eye on this topic as things develop. Best of luck!
Yeh I think Hessian is the direction we're headed in. I think we can do some good for the faction and add a little more balance to the server. With so much activity it will be a pleasure to RP that faction. Anyone looking for a challenge?
I am a member of one of the Outcast factions, and I can tell you that Sabre is better than the Raven's Talon, we use both and train with both. In fact, it is considered to be one of the top 5 if not the best fighter in the game at the moment as it just got an agility upgrade.

Sweet! ok thats what I'm talking about, and is there a list of ships that are open t the public as knowing whats available opens many possibilities... I can't even buy a fighter until I know whats available to me..Duke thats great to hear that the old birds got a kick in the rear end.
