However, I enjoy playing at TRF because my characters and storylines intermix with other groups and factions and writers. Is their any backstory, and reason for the GLF and TNO to be in conflict without the Upheaval attacks? No. Unlike TNO, I don't have the luxury of a bazillions excess meters and planets where I can write huge posts for no planetary gain.
Does it say in the rules that you can't attack someone in a planetary takeover- does it even give a guidline about what a takeover has to be about? Granted, I didn't mention the planet in the thread (a problem which has now be corrected.) That was a mistake- but I have been trying to post that post for forever- and was glad to have it up.
I quit a couple RP sites because I liked TRF's system, its gameplay, and it intricate, detailed storyline. I try to add my part to that storyline as much as possible: but I'm not just playing to write. I want to build a faction as well, and that requires planets, and meters etc.
