History

Following the Founders Day Revolt in 752 AS, overworked and underpaid workers took control of their own mining stations, executing their overlords, and capturing a pair of mining ships. Rather than attempt to negociate with the rebels, the BAF arrived in force with capital ships and fighters, smashing one of the mining ships, then Endeavor, and pursuing the Glorious into a dense field, where the pursuiers were routed by a series of large mines, set in preparation for the revolt.

The BAF and Bretonian government, incensed at the continuing existence of a revolting band of miners, sent the HMS-Hood, a Dunkirk class battleship, from New London to restore order. This was the last straw for the workers who had, until then, remained loyal. The entire mining popultation of the system declared their Indipendance, and began a long guerilla war against the opressive and brutal government. The Hood was disabled by a huge mine, setting off a chain-reaction in the ship's aft. The engines and main reactors were completely trashed, and it was concluded that repairs could not be conducted in such a hostile enviroment. The BAF stripped and abandoned the ship, and the indipendant Miners Guild took it over shortly after, establishing the only freeport within House space.

Since the revolt, the Mollies have grown into a fierce group of terrorists and pirates, using attacks on both commercial shipping and mining operations, civilian establishments, and BAF bases and convoys in their fight to gain indipendance. The Londonderry System is considered a No-Fly zone for all BAF ships, and the Molly Asteroid Field, and Dublin in general, have become increasingly dangerous for the BAF and corsairs alike.

After the vicious Thermonuclear bombing of Planet Cork in 802 AS, the Corsairs have become a prime target for all Molly pilots and ships. Standing Orders stated that any corsair ships encountered, regardless of type, is to be destroyed immediatly, no quarter will be given or expected.

In 816 AS rulling molly faction Union of Gold signs Treaty of Dublin with Queen Carina, agreeing on terms to become Bretonian protectorate, but few weeks later Molly traditionalist uprising declared treaty null and void and resumed their operations with purpose of establishing independant Republic without any compromises with Bretonian empire.

The Molly's traditionalist, The Molly Republic Militia took control over the forgotten Molly bases in New Castle while the corrupted Union of Gold kept control of bases in Dublin and Londenderry. Over the past few months the two sides of the Molly's have been going at it for months now with no progression on both sides only ending in large amounts of deaths for both sides.

After months and months of fighting the UOG High Command vanished with no saying of his whereabouts. Thus UOG officers took the liberty of searching their quarters for any clues. They're they found evidence of former High Command member was a Bretonian Secret Service agent order to receive information and get the treaty signed under any circumstances. With that now in mind the UOG and MRM had a long meeting about further relations and came to the conclusion of rebelling against the Queen and to terminate the treaty thus beginning the Molly Republic.

Allowed Ships

"Our ressources are low, and we cannot afford to run large ships. Our and Rogue joint ship design is well suited for our way of life, and is moderately priced to produce and maintain. Gunboat, being our biggest ship available, will be restriced to Senior Pilots and up. The Flagship will be the Ridgeback Pirate Destroyer as it was one of the last surviving destroyers from the Colonial war and will only be available to Counsel members. Cost of loosing such a vessel is too great to risk. Similarly to that, Pirate Transports will be given only to Senior Pirates and up, since new pilots need to get the basics of flight in fighter craft first."
