Why is the sovereign of the Sisters of Domina svCommonwealth?

This means that If you happen to use a mod that makes you start as an enemy of the CW, the sisters are your enemies. What's worse is that you cannot use domina powers either. Even sustain is unavaliable to you.

This makes it seem that if you are an enemy of the sisters, you are an enemy of Domina. Also, if you are an enemy of the Commonwealth, you are an enemy of the sisters. Therefore, if you are an enemy of the CW, you are an enemy of Domnia.

Should the sisters of Domina be connected to the CW?

I definetly agree with you. It make no sense for sisters to be CW. The sister should be their own soverein, with differen't attributes. I think they should be to-the-death enemys to the Penitence. (The penitence are for the other "god like being" Oracus, right?) By to-the-death I mean that if both stations are in the same system, they will send ships to attack each other. It would make for an interesting secondary storyline. It could even have missions and such. And there could be Domina specific ships also (they should look as different as possible from penitence.) Maybe you could even choose to be on the other side, for the penitence, and attack sisters stations.

Anyhow, my guess is that this would be a version 1.0 or 1.1 improvement, cause it would take a fair amount of time. But then again, it might be possible in a mod, if you were to make another soverein...

This would also mean that the Sisters would have to have all new ships to guard their stations--they currently use CW ships.

But I tend to think that the Sisters have "chosen" the CW since they're more fitting to the Sisters cause...and beliefs. Keep in mind that the Sisters are mearily vessels of Domina, so it is also possible that they are indeed, CW by origin.

actually, no. The ship's soverien can be changes indivually for each station's encounters and all that.

Really?

Code: Select all

<StationType UNID="&stSistersOfDomina;"
			name=				"Sisters of Domina"
			sovereign=			"&svCommonwealth;"

<Ships>
			<Table>
				<Ship chance="50"	count="1d4"	class="&scRoninB;"		orders="guard"/>
				<Group chance="40">
					<Ship			count="1d2"	class="&scSapphireYacht;"	orders="guard"/>
					<Ship			count="1"	class="&scEI100;	"	orders="gate"/>
				</Group>
				<Ship chance="10"	count="1d2"	class="&scEI100;"		orders="gate"/>
			</Table>
		</Ships>
Do note that a Ronin B is used extensively throughout the commonwealth, as with the others as well.
