Is alliance navy rank worth grinding?

Empire got some swagwagon.

While fed ship is not as cool as the imperial, you have access to Sol system.

So whats the use in grinding for some homeless...... I mean alliance
 
The Thargoids are coming. The universe just got a lot more dangerous! It seems like they will not be too happy with the Federation and the Empire but maybe they will tolerate the Alliance. If I was a Frontier Dev programmer that is the direction I would go with. Meanwhile I'm allied with the Alliance just to cover the bases. Per previous versions of the game if I could acquire a few Thargoid missiles possibly no current engineered ship in the game could survive with a direct hit. Scary huh? We'll see...
 
so in the end they are still some homeless bum that somehow manage to beat off the empire and feds while having no navy?

I believe they do have a navy, just not one players can join at present. I'm not sure if there are plans for Alliance ranks and ships, but it's something a lot of players want to see.

oh yeah, i heard it was the alliance that spared the thargoids despite the numerous unprovoked attacks

They are Belters.

a fancy term for homeless bum?
 
I believe sooner or later they will. If i read correctly, they have their own ship manufacturers, own ships and even capital ships. We just haven't seen any of it yet.
 
No one knows what max rank with the super powers will bring. I focused on them big time early on as nothing was ever said and still hasn't on what effect in missions or whatever will come in the future. It could be awesome or nothing. We will see.
 
I would say from experience it can be financially worth it. If you get to know the Alliance and it's locations, then go explore them you might find out why yourself.
If not, maybe you could help out with the BGS goals for a few of the more well known Alliance Cmdrs they might advise you how best to approach it.
Also in this game it helps to plan ahead!
 
On the one hand making Alliance navy(they do have one) on par with Imp/fed will be nice, but on the other hand I don't want new ships to be gated behind more poop hauling missions.
 
The great shipyards of New Rossyth in Alioth - (AAAI) Argent Aerospace Amalgameted Inc?
Not present in game.

Meredith Argent?
Mentioned in game at Toruist Beacon. Named as descendant of wealthy industrialist Walter Argent. Not named as CEO of ship building company.

Alliance weapon?
The Retribution Laser - there's no better tea kettle in the galaxy.
Actually it worked for a couple of weeks in a beta but then it was decided that the Heat Meta needed to be nerfed and the Retribution Laser went back to being rubbish.

Thargoid ships?
No.
