Cliché factor? Who cares, honestly. Even those of us not lucky enough to be inventors/scientists and/or mission control (Extra places and more confusion when?) would still get to play with all sorts of guns and crazy lethal and crazier nonlethal stuff.

Tiruin: Good to be back! Viking: Sea Wolves may still one day return! I just got inspired by this game idea!
:)) !!!

1. C1
2. A2
(changed my vote below; voting equally D/C1)
I'd love being in a mothership-type/class spacefaring base, and it makes one of the most flexible plotlines possible--we can even be actually decent people, but that the circumstances around us make us seem iffy.
And somehow I had the random hit of some anime where the protagonist was an actually good-hearted and wise-value space pirate. It was also pretty nice to watch.

My main priority in my vote is the flexibility of storytelling--which one would be applicable in many, many scenarios (even indirectly inferred to the theme), and a mothership is pretty fancy; self-sustaining (mostly), and rather a mobile base of operations. Also clarifying my position (if ever): 1. Leader/Head/Guildmaster. 2. Operative.

Also wondering if there can be 2-3 leaders, wherein they're more like supporting each other and such. :P

At the moment D (Branches of an organization) and C1 are tied. A1 is a close 3rd.

 Also, even if you aren't a bounty hunter you can still get crazy lethal and non lethal stuff to do stuff with.

Yeah, but bounty hunter's more fun.

Anyways...

VOTE D! We can get everything we want with branches!

<.<

Can we settle on compromise and not be pirates (but be mothership sailing flexible themed people that isn't a corporation?)
Because the branching idea is a very good point for flexibility and connection/retention for many players. :3

 :D :D :D
My ideas are getting support! Today is an amazing day!  :D

Tiruin, your idea is a good one, I will admit. Quite frankly, we very much could have a (non-official) branch that's privateers...

But really, I'd be happy with whatever. I'm just glad that people think my idea is a good one.

Glass is, as usual, correct.
Yep, as ever, I bestow upon Glass the expected +1
I'm gonna say we go with whatever Glass's idea is.

Just pull D, everyone. We'll be our own nation.

Heck, we could rotate leaders/presidents and jobs and crap. The point is, we'll can be a nomadic race living on a fleet of giant but relatively poorly armed spaceships travelling place to place in deep space, but only ever allowing outsiders to see smaller shuttles and cruisers and stuff.

That allows us mercenaries, businesses, everything and anything.

Make it a conglomerate ship so the idea of 'poorly armed' which may translate into 'overall WEAK' isn't really actually true. :P

Hum, the more I find analogies and associations with it, D sounds great and isn't restricted to the theme of AGAINST THE LAW.
I'd still love being part of a good pirate crew though. :P

Have a nice life, and please, try not to accidentally depressurize the spa like the last immigrant.

That was...messy.
