I know this'll be denied but id pitch it anyway.

It seems like the majority of the nrp is focused on a NATO coalition of sorts. Would it be cool if I made a nation capable of taking it on? Sortof the nrp's soviet union for lack of better terms.

Most of you probably don't know me but I'm a fair player, I don't war for the sake of war and only play for story. My initial plot arc was that nation reaching out to be peaceful, be part of the community per se'

Like that Preciprik guy said, the Golgotha kind of fill that role, but I'm seriously surprised nobody has mentioned creating an opposing council. Sort of the warsaw-pact to my NATO if you will. The golgothans of the Resurgent Mandate are fanatical killers-not necessarily politically opposed to ideas put forward by the Galactic Council. Maybe something to think about?
