This is my proposal on how factions, lore, and how these things should effect antags.

There have been some discussion of these things ongoing for quite a while, so I thought I should put my thoughts into writing.

Overall a good start I feel to what we want to define by factions. May also be worth figuring out how we'll fit minor "freelance" companies into the scope of this, like Arnold's Pizza, but I don't think we need an answer for that right away.

## Factions

There are decidedly 4 major factions:
- Nanotrasen

We need to also decide if it's Nanotrasen or NanoTrasen, officially. In some versions, NanoTrasen was formed from the merge of two separate companies, hence the distinction.

- Nanotrasen
- The Syndicate and their member organizations
- SolGov (Owners of earth and the Sol System)
- Galatic Liberation Front (Name pending but some sort of revolutionary faction, USSP deemed to memey(decide on something before you merge this))

Suggested change

Maybe worth omitting until we settle on what we want to call it.

I'll add, I'm less inclined to use 'Liberation Front' either as that's stepping on the toes of S.E.L.F. a bit - I would suggest something like 'Galactic United Core', or some variant.

though GUC might be a bit weird, IDK.

I would rather not omit, unless we decide we don't want such a faction conceptually. This is the likely the place where such would be decided, at least publicly.
