The Rebel Faction

Nothing? Really? lol

Was my last revision of the rules that good no-one has anything more to add?



 

Not to pop your happy bubble but I do not think anyone had access to the rules to remember what they were to suggest a change.  Now that Titus has unlocked the archive, I think people can read up and offer some suggestions (if any).

There was a query about planetary takeover rules recently that we tried answering using common sense since none of us actually had the rules and could not remember if what we remembered were actually the latest revision of the rules or an earlier iteration.

Personally - We do not need a force council.
 

I think we need a Force Council and that I should be the only one on it. (My first and only act would be making it a board rule that Irtar cannot ever advance past Padawan)

The reality is, pretty much everyone on the board has got some sort of Force user qualifications (the only ones I can think of would be Reshmar and Trachta). Ahnk and I are the only Master levels at this point pretty much because we're the only ones that write our characters that way, albeit having done so under an environment with strict Force training requirements. If say Seth were to write (HAHAHAHAHAHAHA OH MAN I AM HILARIOUS) Natalya in a thread where she is becoming more confident in her abilities, I would have no real problem with promoting her through an NPC or whatever. This is because one I trust Seth to be as reasonable as a Redcoat can possibly be, and two because the character development is there, as it is for all of our bittervets.

Should the time come when new people arrive and express an interest in Forcin' it up (that's a technical Force Council term), I would imagine it would be more of a community judgment call expressed in a more casual way until the point at which that system would be sustainable, and then a proper Force Council would likely have to be reinstated.

As far as R&Ds, I would advocate for making a page for old and new submissions under the same general system, except I'd say dump the thread requirement if we still have it. There's only so many variants on intense skunkworks action before it becomes sort of bland and serves no purpose other than an additional effort blocker. But others might disagree, I dunno.

I read some from time to time if I am trying to wrap my head around some tech.

Omnae is immune to the rules.
