Your faction of choice?

Say if you were to fall asleep and wake up in the Freelancer universe, what faction or path would you choose? Be a Freelancer or join a real cause? Universal Shipping? The Blood Dragons? The laughable and pathetic cause that is the Gaians? Personally I think I would be a Bounty Hunter or work for the Rheinland Military or Police. But that's me. What about you?

Oh and I guess I have no real power over this but try for Originality. Don't just say Corsair or Outcast because they are the most powerful and have the best VHFs. Pretend that things are sort of in order, like that the Liberty Navy wouldn't be massacred against an Outcast force of the same size

i think the Red Hessians, first, Rheinland pwns, second, they have the only vhf in a house system, 3rd, i love why they fight for(got fired by daumann, now they kick daumanns ass), 4th, vogtland pwns

or, rogues, because of the buffalo base in the badlands, they most beautifull base there is, and with the most beautifull ship, the dagger

In order of my choice:

1) Zoners-- total neutrality
2) Blood Dragons-- Honourable faction
3) Junkers-- Almost total neutarlity and i can have many business contracts!

Laughable factions:

1) Xenos--really anti social faction
2) Gaians-- what a ******* cause to fight

The zoners because then you could trade without being killed by pirates.
Or the Corsairs because its alot more exciting and because I hate bounty hunters.

"this is junkers red-17 to zoners leader, drop you cargo or die"
what the... "rogues raider-1 to junkers red-5, drop your cargo"... ok...

even pirates rob pirates, also pirates rob all neutrals... it's strange but they do...

Outcasts on Malta
Damn relax on that planet and kill some bounty hunters now and then
and if I snif the Cardamine I will live longer then the average person of a faction(at least if I not get killed in space)

Post Sat Aug 07, 2004 1:28 pm

The Corsairs, or the Outcasts. Because they freeking rock, but scince I cant use them, I would have to say, ether the Liberty Rouges, or the Blood Dragons.

Also, i need some suggustions for my The Sequil To Captured forum.

GMG. Best weapons, the Falcons and Eagles are good ships and the scenery in the Sigma systems is very nice.

Or the IMG for much the same reasons (exceot the weapons, but hey it's a challenge!)

Faction's I'd join:

Blood Dragons- I support their cause. The Kusari government is incredibly corrupt. There are also many sympathizers within the Kusari population, and they are secretly supported by the GMG and Kishiro.

Gas Mining Guild- If they merge with Kishiro like one NPC says, they'll become the largest corporation in all of Sirius. Also, their "Blast" series of guns is extremely powerful, and they get Eagles to compare with the Outcasts' Sabres and the Corsairs' Titans. I can also honestly say "we kicked Rheinland's ass"!

Zoners- Total nuetrality, and I get to visit the most exotic corners of Sirius(Tau-37 anyone?) as well as meet exotic people.

Pitiful and laughable factions:

Xenos- I believe I don't need to explain.

Any faction that's made up of people who lost economically to a larger corporation or were fired out of their job and now hate the world and just want to shoot everybody. These pitiful, whining excuses for pirates include:
Lane Hackers
Farmers' Alliance
Red Hessians
Unioners
LWB
And maybe a few more I forgot to mention.

Gaians- Hippies...IN SPACE!!! Yes, I'm sure giving money to the corporations which run the shipyards that make your flying pieces of junk is very good to the environment.

Hogosha- I like to call them "Asian Xenos", "Samura's Dogs", or "Target Practice"

Golden C. Mmmm, boobies...

Or perhaps... dare I dream? A claims adjuster for Interspace! WOW that would rock! Who needs a ship when you can be a deskmonkey?

In all seriousness though... I don't know. I figure I'd start with the Zoners, live on Freeport 9 for a while, poke and prod around Sirius trading, then probably sign up for the Liberty military and serve on a Battleship or cruiser squadron. Make some money, maybe do some Bounty Hunting.

Freelancer, you can't beat no contracts. And I would do jobs for the Zoners first, then I get access to the ealge
