This is why you shouldn't support the Empire

I just go to whatever side has the cooler ships and paint schemes.

The Clipper is kinda un-inspiring.... and way too clean. I hope the Alliance have a gritty/malicious look to them. One reason why i like the Python so much.

I don't like the colours of the Imperial ships. They're tinted with the blood, sweat and tears of their slavery-based economy.
 
Shiny sleek ships - check
well cut uniforms - check
British accents - check
Snazzy flag - check

Sorry but the Empire are just that much more stylish.....

The sun will never set on our 1000 year Empire. :)
 
Empire citizens are honourable people who would rather pay back their debt to society rather than be a leech like a federation layabout.

Once their debt is paid they will hold their head up high and be free once more.

Over 1000 years ago many citizens of earth were forced into the military for a few years. During this time the skills they learned and the work ethic they developed (something every empire citizen has from childhood) set them up for life.

This is why the greedy federation will never crush the empire. They live for greed, we live for honour
 
I hear that the empire have cookies :D

Cookies come with every meal!

I guess I'm one of the few serving the Federation. I don't know what it is, but I'm always driven to go to Earth in space games and work around there for a while. So, I'm Federation purely because I'm drawn to my home :)

It's called separation anxiety :)

Look, I can't get involved. I've got work to do. It's not that I like the Empire; I hate it, but there's nothing I can do about it right now... It's all such a long way from here...
 
Over the course of my career I have worked for each faction. None of them are perfect. The fact of the matter is the Empire has provided me with a quick path to a Cobra through slave trading, and currently it's where the action is. If tomorrow I hear of some large battle in Alliance space I'll be fighting for them until the credits stop flowing.
 
Don't believe the Federation propaganda - Imperial Slaves have rights, get paid and can purchase their freedom back. Better than evil corporations running the government and letting their unfortunates starve

indeed. Federation spin doctors try to make us out to be cruel, whilst they are stepping over homeless beggars starving in the street, treated no better than a wild dog.

No citizen of the Empire needs to live in such a way, we can promise a full belly, and a warm bed which is a more civilised life than that given to many in the Federation.
 
There is no discussion about this? If you take for granted that slavery is wrong, then you are right. But for me, it is not a problem so Empire it is, slavery FTW!
 
I know this is all in-character for you guys (at least I hope to God it is!) but I can't help but find it rather disturbing. Lots of people actually do think like this in real life, even now, in this 'enlightened' age of ours.


Not trying to spoil the 'fun', it's just... well, disturbing.

Role play my dear chap, role play. 😉
 
And this is why we should of all helped the slave revolt.

These "Empire" fanatics only care about on thing... profiting off poor, young people, who have no choice other than to serve as slaves.
The Federation has a strong policy against this sort of... horrendous crime. We all need to ensure that a message is sent to them, that this will not be tolerated.

Everyone deserves a chance at freedom. If they decide to go down the route of a criminal, let the Federation respond in a legal and meaningful way.
 
The rebelling slaves just dont know their inferior place. We must teach them that defiance will not be tolerated. Back to the mines you dirty animals!
 
Of course the difference between an employee and a slave is that the employee always has the choice of looking for another job, or in fact saying goodbye to the entire Federation and going to live on an independent world. This is not a minor detail.

Have a look at Empire territory. It's *completely* red, they take everything.

Take a look at Fed territory. It's always interwoven with independent systems who've been allowed to keep their independence and make their own decisions.

If I have a choice, I choose having a choice. All empire citizens are slaves, some of them just don't know it.

Typical Federal poppycock!
Federal employers can also dismiss their workers at a whim and condemn them to poverty and despair. This is not so with an Imperial slave; an owner has a duty of care towards their workers. The relationship between master and slave is solid and secure, not arbitrary and uncaring like in the Federation. Your understanding of freedom is coloured by the delusion of empty choices propagated by shameless corporate greed and false social standing.
As for the tight collection of Imperial systems; there is very little discord within our society. People know their place and are mostly content. Citizens are free to move to other systems if they want but why would they? The Federal systems are peppered throughout human space because there is always rebellion and revolt from the authoritarian yoke of Federal control.
The Federal masses are the true victims of exploitation in our galaxy, living with a marketed illusion of choice and freedom when, in reality, they are caged like fowl in battery farming.
:p

Why don't you come over to Empire space and say that, cookie addict!

Lets not forget how this 'Federation' as you call it, wallows in a pit of its own self indulgent decadance, feasting off the spectacle of vapid celebrity and cheap mind bending narcotics. While your poorest citizens are starving, you choose to judge the integrity of the Empire.

You sir, have no honour!
 
Any civilisation that enslaves other beings needs to be removed swiftly from the universe.
