What do the factions say? 2nd edition for 3.3

Sitoutumaton · Dec 22, 2018

The release of 3.3 altered the way how states work, but also adjusted the faction representatives' lines on some cases. Hence, I'm creating a new thread to catalogue the post-3.3 dialogue and retiring the old thread in Dangerous Discussion.

EDIT: Per my own discovery of democracies having new active investment dialogue, I've pre-empted and emptied active investment for all other factions.

Communism	We're currently enjoying an economic boom. Communism is the future - the evidence is clear.	As you probably know, the system economy is in a poor state.	It's true there's some civil unrest in the system.

Patronage	The economic climate is extremely favourable at present, but that should come as no surprise.	The financial situation isn't good. We're having a challenging time. I hope you can help us.	There's been quite a bit of civil unrest recently, and we've had to put down several protests.

Squadron Allegiance Description
A more verbose description of a faction's government, available in squadrons view once pledged to support a faction.

Government	Verbose Description
Anarchy	Anarchist factions are typically criminal gangs or organizations that possess no official (or organized) form of government , yet still wield influence within a system. They usually have no formal laws, except those of self-preservation and personal loyalty to an individual, and as such anarchy systems are lawless and dangerous places.
Communism	Communist governments believe in an equal society, although one controlled by a central group. The means to choose that central group are varied, and often contradict the altruistic aims of such a society. Generally such governments are totalitarian and centralized.
Confederacy	Confederacy factions are sometimes considered forms of proto-democracy. Although instead of a centrally elected government their society is governed by smaller parties and interest groups working in concert. The votes of the individual are not a core concept for these societies, although can be found in some.
Cooperative	Cooperative factions are similar to communist ones in that their core precept is equal stature of all members of society. Unlike communist factions, a cooperative's governance is not centralized, but organized through devolved parties and committees. All are expected to work equally for the betterment of their society, rather than that of the individual.
Corporate	Corporate State governments extend the corporate structure throughout the society, with shareholding being the equivalent to citizenship. The principles will vary, but are generally set to ensure smooth operations for the corporations, often to the benefit of the attached population.
Democracy	Democratic governments are chosen by the voting public. The government then sets the law. While the specifics often vary between democratic states, they are all unified by the concept of being accountable to their voters.
Dictatorship	Dictatorships have an overall ruler, who will remain leader until they die, or are overthrown. Power in the society is controlled (often by extreme measures) by that single individual. Succession is often a tumultuous affair. All members of society owe their allegiance to that individual.
Feudal	Feudal societies are based around a group of feudal leaders, each which have absolute power within their region. They usually cooperate to appoint a single overall representative, but power rests with the feudal lords, rather than the appointed representative.
Patronage	Factions and societies based upon Patronage have at their root family structure, with a hierarchy extended beyond that. Loyalty and honor is generally at its centre, similar to that of the Empire. Some argue this provides a truer form of democracy.
Prison Colony	Prison colony factions deal with the governance of prisoner inmate populations, usually on a large scale. While they are authoritarian and often controlled at the top end by a law enforcement element, they do sometimes contain a political element contributed by the prisoners.
Theocracy	Theocratic factions are based upon the structures of their respective religions. The practical processes are different between the religions, but they all share the concept that their society exists in devotion to their religion and the the deity or deities or beliefs at their centre.

Cooperative Investment = Feudal Investment = same as Democracy Investment

(Dictatorship OR Corporate OR Prison Colony), Civil Liberty: "Our space is safe, you can trust us on that. That's why we have announced civil liberty."

Sitoutumaton · Dec 23, 2018

I've added two new fields for dialogue: Faction summary and squadron allegiance description, which is a more verbose faction description.

Faction summaries, found at every starport's news section, now thank their supporters in flavour appropriate manner. My observations so far indicate that they have just four lines, in accordance with the Anarchy, Corporate, Social and Authoritarian supergroups. Unknown whether designed as intended or should there be more. Theocracies and democracies will thank their supporters and cheer for the confederacy, whereas feudals and patronages now extol loyalty to the party.

Squadrons' allegiance screens now contain a new, more verbose description of the government they are pledged to. In my case, that being Communism Interstellar Union faction, the blurb details they're actually centralized vanguard parties. *horrified gasp*

That's correct - and the summary corresponds to the ethos, not the government type. An Authoritarian Communist faction like the Jadht Nonowners says "The party thanks their supporters for their continued loyalty. Long live the regime."

Squadron summary: independent corporate
"Corporate State governments extend the corporate structure throughout the society, with shareholding being the equivalent to citizenship. The principles will vary, but are generally set to ensure smooth operations for the corporations, often to the benefit of the attached population."

Greybeard_LXI · Dec 23, 2018

I reset my account last year and while I was still Harmless, Penniless and Aimless I noticed an Anarchy faction saying "I was hoping for someone more experienced...".

Ian Doncaster · Jan 1, 2019

Theocracy, Pending War: "We pray for sense and peace, but may need to let loose the dogs of war."

Ian Doncaster · Jan 8, 2019

Anarchy, Pirate Attack: {no special message, it just uses one of the "None" messages at random}

Ian Doncaster · Jan 19, 2019

Cooperative, Pending Election: "Elections are likely in the near future."

New type of message:
Confederacy, locally None but War in another system: "We're currently fighting throughout one of our other systems."

Ian Doncaster · Jan 20, 2019

Cooperative, Pending Outbreak: "We have heard tales of sickness and disease. We are concerned that we may have a medical emergency on our hands." (yes, same as Confederacy says)

Bunkerkind Anni · Jan 20, 2019

still not a single line for thargoids burning down the main station in the system....

Ian Doncaster · Mar 2, 2019

Feudal, Pending Expansion: "The stars beckon. We shall conquer new systems and bring them under our glorious sovereign's reign!"

Feudal Squadron description

"Feudal societies are based around a group of feudal leaders, each which have absolute power within their region.
They usually cooperate to appoint a single overall representative, but power rests with the feudal lords, rather than the appointed representative "

Thanks all. I've updated the opening post with the new additions made since turn of year.

The Asleep Bear shared a cooperative-aligned faction's description to me over discord. It is the following:

Cooperative factions are similar to communist ones in that their core precept is equal stature of all members of society. Unlike communist factions, a cooperative's governance is not centralized, but organized through devolved parties and committees. All are expected to work equally for the betterment of their society, rather than that of the individual.

I have updated it to the opening post.

A Sleeping Bear have provided Communist as well

A Sleeping Bear said:
"Communist governments believe in an equal society, although one controlled by a central group. The means to choose that central group are varied, and often contradict the altruistic aims of such a society. Generally such governments are totalitarian and centralized."

Your truly filed a drawer squadron to the Alioth Independents (Alliance Democracy) briefly to capture this text.

Muro Independents, who call Muri their home, provided me with their own faction allegiance description for cross-reference. Based on this I presume there are no differences in descriptions based on superpower allegiance.
