Adle’s Armada are delighted to be taking part in the Rise to Power. We hope what follows will be of use to all Cmdrs.
Who is in the Adle’s Armada Coalition?
We are proud to be joined in our wildcard bid by Earth Defence Fleet, Independent Pilots Consortium, Sovereign Justice Coalition & The Ancient Order.
What follows is written from the perspective of Adle’s Armada but our allies may of course speak for themselves also, o7
Why support the Adle’s Armada Coalition?
Roleplay: Because we are a powerful, positive force in the Galaxy, fighting terrorism, murder and piracy. We defend Eravate and ‘starter space’, new members of the Pilots Federation, traders, the peaceful, the law-abiding and the innocent anywhere in the Galaxy. We have demonstrated time and again that those who would plunge the Galaxy into murderous anarchy can and will be confronted and defeated.
Out of character: See above … no, seriously … we are the current undefeated Galactic PvP League Champions. That and some of the links/vids that follow will demonstrate our PvP credentials. However, we also have a track-record of dealing with the PvE elements of the game such as the Background Sim and working with other Cmdrs, both independent and from other groups, to do so. See the Eravate BGS thread here:

We are a friendly, responsible, set of gamers with members in every timezone. Our Admins include well-known figures in the Galaxy such as (to name but a few):
S!lk: our Founder, US-based
Finegan: second-in-command, US-based, liked even by our RP enemies
Truesilver: UK 1984-er, weapons data librarian, author of the popular ‘Truesilver’s Tests’ series
Noobdelux: unflappable Scandinavian, plays ED every hour and knows (almost) everyone
Breakfastmelon: exuberant Irish duellist, his PvP friends list is almost as long as his list of 1v1 victories
Above all, we are a group with a proven track record of working with others to succeed. We have been active since launch and are bigger and stronger than ever – no mean feat for a group that was originally Open PvP only. Nowadays we welcome the support of every Cmdr, with every interest in the game. Many have joined us who enjoy playing the game in other modes and/or PvE only. We believe we can build a successful, inclusive and united Power.
Who is your proposed Powerplay character and what is your vision?
We propose to create a new RP character:
Mars Adle, son of Fer-de-Lance ace Minerva and grandson of AA’s RP founder, Tyllerius.
Mars is ‘vigilante executioner royalty’ in that he is part of a dynasty that has brought justice to otherwise corrupt and dangerous systems. However, he sees that one major faction, or one militia within it, can never be enough.
When Tyllerius brought Adle’s Armada out of the Federal Navy and into a clandestine paramilitary state, his brutal motto, ‘For every pirate a scaffold, for every terrorist a rail gun’ set out almost all AA had to say.
However, Mars understands that in 3302, in a Galaxy in which hyperspace travel allows a pilot to travel hundreds of light years in minutes, effecting change may take more than controlled aggression.
Mars believes that the Galaxy can only be saved from ‘kill or be killed’ anarchy by bringing together every pilot who wants to take a stand. Although his faction is Federal, he understands the need to work with the Empire, the Alliance and Independent Cmdrs.
The first question Mars would ask about someone is not, ‘Who are they’, or ‘Where are they from?’ but ‘What do they do?’
Mars sees that the existing structures of governance have demonstrably failed to deliver a secure and peaceful Galaxy. A man or woman who seeks to feed their family by gathering exploration data, or trading, risks death at the hands of laughing psychopaths who can brag about their exploits in the next system, there supposedly ‘clean’, if they even bother to leave the scene of their crime. The Navies and Authorities are usually absent, the systems of justice corrupt or inadequate.
In these circumstances Mars sees the only solution as a coalition of the willing, members of the Pilots Federation who can put aside all other differences and fight against the violent criminals who the existing Governments and Powers have failed to curb.
Mars aims to succeed because the Galaxy deserves better.
A little more about The Armada
Adle’s Armada is the oldest, most powerful and most well established Federation aligned group in Elite Dangerous, based out of the legendary system of Eravate, the most attacked and well defended player group controlled system in the game. We have a need for both dedicated PvP and PvE players. Our RP would be considered that of law enforcement or “Judge Dredd” or “Space Batman.”
In 1.4 we were given control of Eravate and its controlling station, Ackerman Market. After a BGS struggle lasting through three in-game civil wars we secured our position by taking Cleve Hub (the station closest to the star and probably the busiest star port in the entire game). Since then our faction has expanded.
We still travel the Galaxy, however, aiding those who need us. We give any worthy call for aid the highest priority. As a recent example of what we try to achieve, we were contacted last week by United German Commanders, who were under PvP attack by multiple player groups. Inside 24 hours we deployed three full AA combat wings, arriving en masse 196 Ly from Eravate, to help secure UGC's home system amidst fierce fighting.
At the Heart of Galactic Events
We’ve been active since launch in December 2014 and have been a big part of almost every large engagement, part of in-game news and the official Frontier Development newsletters and on the official Frontier Developments Facebook/Twitter page.
We are at the heart of current events in the Galaxy. Our recent achievements including winning Season 1 of the Galactic PvP League undefeated, preventing terrorists from delivering an Unknown Artefact to an Eravate outpost in Frontier’s ‘Educating Ed’ Ep.14 and destroying 17 criminal ships that came to Eravate with the announced intention of killing new players for a livestream.
