Also, on the towns page, the last sentence of the description tells what factions the town is allies with. Can you make this faction linkable? EDIT - Also I cant pick a faction scouting from camp.

I have just updated the Community Comment for this: basically, you need high rep/fame in the new town, plus plenty of gangers stationed there (even temporarily). Longo said: Also, on the towns page, the last sentence of the description tells what factions the town is allies with. Can you make this faction linkable? It should be already.. and works for me. What happens when you click? Longo said: Also I cant pick a faction scouting from camp. Will this be changed? When you scout, it will avoid (if possible) matching you versus a friendly faction. Not sure if explicit picking of a faction is needed? ......................... marshal vet deathrce1 paintladder combat1 wv ped1 cont slay2013 Posted Feb 12, 2010, 3:48 pm

Will we need to know what faction the enemy is? Or will a friendly faction always accept a truce in this event? That's the only reason I can think of hunting a particular one - to be "in character." ......................... vet marshal deathrceL1 wv community combatL1 Posted Feb 12, 2010, 3:56 pm

simonmaxhill Drive Backwards BFFs Darkwind Guru Anarchists Faction Group: Storytellers Posts: 1,503 Joined: Mar 10, 2008 Be nice to have some pirates in FL aligned with traders, or mechants or some such. They'd be similar to BHs, but less organized/focused. Essentially they'd be gangs organized or bribed by the Merchants/Civs/Deathrace Mafia that are sent down to the eastern wastes to disrupt pirate groups headed north, raid slavers, seize rare chassis for use in on the tracks of SS... What would be -really- cool would be if the faction/alignment of one or two pirate gangs in FL were to randomly change each week, to represent political meddling and influence peddling by the northern towns. This would preserve the flavor of FL (no traders, wild town) while allowing players stationed there (me, ferinstance) to scout in town while building up a local rep. ......................... vet wv Posted Feb 12, 2010, 6:35 pm Last edited Feb 12, 2010, 6:36 pm by simonmaxhill

It seemed unnecessary to make courier missions assigned to a faction. (Assassination and escort missions, however, are). ......................... marshal vet deathrce1 paintladder combat1 wv ped1 cont slay2013 Posted Feb 12, 2010, 9:34 pm

The idea of a few rival merchant-pirates and maybe red-pirates makes good sense..if you can think of a few gang names and brief descriptions, I'll create 'em  ......................... marshal vet deathrce1 paintladder combat1 wv ped1 cont slay2013 Posted Feb 12, 2010, 9:35 pm

We're considering that, yes. There's a whole package of ideas related to making camps more useful that is likely to happen. ......................... marshal vet deathrce1 paintladder combat1 wv ped1 cont slay2013 Posted Feb 12, 2010, 10:00 pm

*Tinker* BibleThumpers Anonymous Darkwind Guru Mutants Faction Group: Marshals + Contributors Posts: 4,546 Joined: Aug 1, 2008 Strangely my fame in BL went up to recognized again (gate fees down to $590), noticed it after that travel to GW from SS, at gates bantonville militia (civs), and a group scout in SS against Colt-45 (anarchists) Also if we are detested from the Anarchist faction in BL does it mean that all pirates will hate us in other towns, (and beat you up in FL for instance)? And will give them a better reason to kill our crews after a lost scout/travel? ......................... vet marshal wv pvp3 zom circuit2 pvp1 cont Posted Feb 13, 2010, 11:30 am Last edited Feb 13, 2010, 11:36 am by *Tinker*
