NEW SOMALIA

Hilarious Antics, Brutal Efficiency.

We pride ourselves on community service activities like wealth search and rescue, neighborly sports of vessel boarding, and space station repossession. For regular players looking for an intelligent, but raving-FERAL pirate band.



History

From the humble past of riding choppy waves with nothing but a jet-ski and a RPG-7 against the imperialist first-world fleets —- to the modern art of steering an Avenger WARLOCK into the midst of your enemies and triggering the EMP blast, and then swooping in with a flock of Dragonfly-riders with ship boarding weaponry: New Somalia appeals to those who wish to “take” more from life in the Universe. We aim to be the most fun organization in the entire Universe!

Re-known host of the infamous, time-honored SOMALIAN CANNONBALL RUN: Where competitors across the verse race from point A to point B racking up the highest bounty they can by committing numerous crimes and racing against the law and the clock! Winners are scored by a formula that scores the competitors’ bounty and race time. Both competitors and gamblers are made filthy rich every event!

Freedom from oppressive laws, taxes, and corporate corruption; Comradeship with fellow compatriots; A share of the loot; And GLORY as we blaze across the ‘verse, shiny and chrome!

About New Somalia

We aim to frequent trading space-lanes and take what is ours. We aim to repossess space stations that suit our needs. We will take and scrap other vessels if their pilot(s) don’t deserve them. Do you seek more form the universe? Then why not join us and take it!

The Fleet

Currently the New Somalian space fleet consists of the following LTI’d ships:

  • RSI Polaris
  • AEGIS Reclaimer
  • MISC Freelancer MIS
  • ANVIL Gladiator
  • 2X ANVIL Superhornet FC7-M
  • AEGIS Sabre
  • 2X ANVIL Gladius
  • And several Auroras for pursuing and ramming our enemies, as well as pirate-jousts!

Manifesto

New Somalia’s Mission

As Star Citizen nears launch, we aim to build a supportive, tight-knit community of gamers who are looking for a challenge. Currently, we are unsure of how large an Organization needs to be. We value quality over quantity. We aim to keep the Organization size down to a comfortable level, but we will be flexibe if we need to grow to compete. No matter what our final size is your voice will always be heard and you will make a difference in our glorious Org.

New Somalia’s Priorities

Are two priorities are:

1) Have fun
2) Impact the community as much as we can.

When the game starts out we’ll be trying a lot of things and exploring options. We will make decisions later on based off ingame experiences.

Piratey Events, Achievements, and Activities

We aim to encourage and reward players who promote the most fun in the organization. Ideas and activities we aim to encourage are listed below:

OPEN EVENTS
  • THE SOMALIAN CANNONBALL RUN: An infamous event where scoundrels across the Universe race from point A to point B (spanning several sectors) racking up the highest bounty they can by commiting numerous crimes and racing against the law and the clock! Winners are scored by a formula that scores the competitors’ bounty and race time. Both competitors and gamblers are made filthy rich every event! We encourage participants to livestream, and hope to raise money for charity.
CLOSED, MEMBER-ONLY EVENTS
  • SOMALI 60 SECONDS: Steal as many ships and chop shop them within a 1, 4, 12, or 24 hour period!
  • SOMALI PUPPET SHOW: Start a war between two organizations through double agent, backstabbling, and black flag activities.
  • SOMALI TOUR: Steal and hijack a tourist ship and fly it into the sun or a giant asteroid!
  • etc…


Who We Look For

Mature 18+ only community. Most of us have jobs or companies we run, and don’t have time for video game drama.

We are looking for players who enjoy PvP, piracy, and tactically working together with a team under pressure. CIG has stated that piracy will be a challenging profession, and so we are looking to recruit and duly reward the best type of players. We will make enemies and stir trouble. Hopefully we can start some EVE-style wars.

Specifically players from FPS military Simulator games (including ARMA, Operation Flashpoint, Day Z, Insurgency, and etc) and other skill-based space/mech sims (Elite Dangerous, Mechwarrior Online, Hawken, etc) are preferred. Boarding another player’s ship may be the most difficult challenge in the game, so we are looking for skilled players who are up to the task.

What We Offer

1. Mutual respect to everyone, new-recruit, member or ally. We work together to create a fun and memorable Star Citizen experience.
2. Community Impact.
3. Flexibility. CIG is going to surely change things pre and post launch, so we will work together and see where everyone best fits in their preferences.

Economy

New Somalia’s economy will be determined by our players. Black market surgeries, black market crops, Information brokering, smuggling and chopshop activities will be the mainstay of our traiding and resource-mining activities. We currently have LTI MISC Endeavor and AEGIS Reclaimer to support these activities. However, this is subject to change depending on how CIG implements it.

Military

New Somalia’s military will be comprised of quality not quantity. Piracy only works when the treat of violence is real and can be backed up. Regular raids will likely occur weekly, so members should expect to occasionally join the fight. Covert and Special Forces activities will be common.

Intelligence Network

It will exist. It will be secret. Witnessed! members who show promise will be approached and recruited into it.

Charter

Benefits

The ranks of new somalia are displayed below. Each rank bestows benefits and access to resources within the organization. Obviously we are interested in and concerned with organization infiltration and betrayal, and will defend against it.

  1. Raving Feral
  2. War Boy
  3. Witnessed!
  4. Centurion
  5. Imperator
  6. Prime Imperator

Prime imperators will be granted piloting access to the greatest ships (War Rigs) in the fleet, while Raving Ferals and War boys will be allowed access to only starter craft until they progress. Members who pull off great feats of piracy will ascend to Witnessed! rank. Seniority increases from there. Progression will be merit based, and will consider loyalty, time, and other factors.

General Rules and Regulations

  • Pilots have the right to rationally and maturely defend themselves, but are expected to avoid creating drama.
  • Drama will be resolved by Pirate court. Essentially those involved will be forced to joust with Auroras equipped with shitty weapons as punishment for creating drama. Whomever wins the bout wins, end of the drama.
  • Issues and concerns regarding any New Somalian decisions, pilots, and allies must be brought to the attention of the ranking Officer or Commander as soon as possible.
  • Absolutely no racism, sexism, homophobia or any other forms of prejudice will be tolerated.
  • Do not, under any circumstance, reply to attacks or topics about New Somailia on the RSI forums. PERIOD.
