About the General R&D's..


Submissions are available for anyone to build, provided you have the proper In Character connections. EG: A new lightside group couldn't build an Empire-specific Star Destroyer, as they would not have the plans.



eh?

Why have we started doing this now?, I understand the thinking behind it (lets face it its logical), but people at TRF have always been able to build whatever they want (as long as its official) , without having to worry too much about this. It seems like a subtle policy shift.

Now as you all know I lead a neutral faction, (well for the sake of argument, lol) and since day one I have always built, well, just about anything that floats my boat. Which includes; Mon Cal cruisers, Hapes Nova Cruisers, to Imperial Star destroyers.

Now , with this new rule, as a neutral faction, where does this leave me?

Am I able to build those New Republican ships? or Imperial, or neither...

I already have in my manifest , Hapes nova cruisers, VSD's ISD's, and Mon cal cruisers , now it seems odd that I am able to have these, yet not any of these General R&D's.

I can understand if they are group specific, then fair enough.

I'm not trying to confuse people or gain an unfair advantage or anything, it just seems like a grey area to me, and kind of contradictory.

I actually do have some unofficial ships already built which I have yet to stick up in here as general R&D's (they were built before this rule , and I haven't had the chance to put them up yet).

Chances are they are probably either Imperial or Republican , so under these rules I can't actually build them yes?...lol

I guess I'm looking for some clarification on the matter.

Also.... I'm a little confused as to whats official and not offical right now, and I was wondering if one of you kind Mods could take a gander at Vc's manifest to weed out those that I will have to post up in here to get approval as a General R&D.

There are tons of neutral vessels out there, when BDE first started you could see my shipyards buildig Battle Horns and Bulk Frigates...

As I see it as long as you can come up with a feasable explination as to how you have the plans, then its no problem to build a galacticaly common vessel such as the ISD (Who's plans wernt all that secret anyways). As for Mon Cal vessels, most of them were upgraded Liners, am I right?
