That, even on non-capsuleer vessels, ship command sections are designed to be sheared off and function as an escape capsule? (The Burning Life p. 85)

So, honest question here: in relation to the Federation, how do you people see me and Mixed Metaphor?

Probably 'hrr'.

Me ? Like a overzealous biased person toward the Empire. Besides that, someone that is intelligent enough to think right and have a great insight when the Empire is not involved. I do not know much about Mixed Metaphor, though.

Lyn, she has briefly seen him in Solitude for a little time and they were probably fighting for the same ideals here, but she had no serious discussion with him at that time. Now she thinks more or less as myself, though she really do think besides having a grief against the Empire that is clouding his judgement, that he is overcompensating a big lack of self confidence by being such a big mouth, and is always trying to justify his opinions to himself, also testing how far he can go.

Well how else would you know you were utterly wrong if someone didn't tell you?

^ That's how we know Andreus. Only thing I know about MXD is that Naqam business that shows up in the "did you know" thingies.

If people weren't wrong as often as they were, I wouldn't have to talk so much.

I said "Andreus." You're different from your character, aren't you?

I'm not a billionaire cyborg spaceship pilot with an unneccessarily large collection of cultural artifacts in his lounge, no. After you get over that, me and my character are actually surprisingly similar.

On the whole, my understanding is that Andreus Ixiris and MDX are some kind of loosely Federal aligned soldiers, vigilantes or mercenaries, who are always ready to back up their words with guns. All that is good.

However, the dialogue in IGS makes me often confused. Maybe I miss the context, but I find it difficult to swallow that Luminaire Generals or military commanders suddently show up and tell completely unrelated people that what they are doing is wrong, without coming up with a counter-proposal that could be criticized in reverse. However, when they do act like this, it would be interesting to hear, what was the background that compelled them to barge in and risk the reputation and honour of their troops, and how do they even know the characters they are talking to? Anyhow, this is a generic thing, and I understand that sometimes the discussions are just too irresistible for some juicy side remarks.

The commenting by Andreus Ixiris shows in my opinion that his player has a very firm grip on the backstory of EVE, and maybe he could use part of his creative energy and knowledge to build up more good stories which wouldn't interfere with any piece of the PF. I'm pretty sure that most players would not try to discourage but support this kind of efforts, with all available means.

I'm not a Luminaire General, and generally my comments about people Doing It Wrong are restricted to people who don't understand the canon or some of the concepts behind the canon. Right now this might seem like it's mostly restricted to the people pretending to be rogue drones (and yes, they're pretending to be rogue drones. That's all they're doing), but that's mostly because they are the biggest source of Wrong on the IGS right now. When something else crops up that sets me off, trust me - they'll know.

To Hamish, Andreus is a very angry man who hates the Caladri State with an intensity bordering on rabidness.    He is not somebody who can be rationalized with, but is not enough of a threat to warrant action against.   Therefore he and MXD are of very low interest to him.
