That's the Federation for you, BB. :rolleyes:
They have no colour in their cultural thinking (or dress sense). Things are either BLACK or WHITE, although the most advanced amongst them do seem able to comprehend GREY.

Innocent bystanders are frequently killed by the Feds. They call it collateral damage. They always apologize for it if their cover up propaganda fails.
They are not keen on being filmed, these so called guardians of 'freedom'. :p

Wild accusations and insinuations from another misguided fellow whose Imperial ancestors wiped out all sentient life, in preparation for terraforming, on Achenar 6d under the orders of Henson Duval. Isn´t that the kind of collateral damage you refer to, Cmdr?

It wasn't collateral damage at all. It was a deliberate resettlement policy that had unanticipated results for the deportees. At the time (and as always), the Imperial authorities had the very best intentions. There is much you don't know about this story, Cmdr Exaga, and your historians are purveyors of porky pies and Brown Sauce.

Hmm neither faction I instills great feelings of allegiance after reading those.

I'm not inclined to want to be a part of Federation beuracracy and corruption; however Henson Duvalls behaviour and the Empires use of slavery means I will be fighting for Federation.

Convince me otherwise!

If the majesty, honor, and grandeur aren't convincing you to side with the Empire then I don't know what will. :) And Duval is a great man... don't believe Federal propaganda. They're notorious for re-writing history to suit their distorted view of 'truth'.

Translation into FEDERAL English:
"If the aesthetic outer appearance of the Empire alone doesn't appeal to your fickle and shallow conscience then I'll try lying to you about what a great man the Emperor is (without proof, just by my own admission and biased testimony) and attempt to convince you with other superficial half-truths and fabrications, or other attempts at pressing the 'right buttons', in order to get you to comply with the Empire's way of thinking. I'll also try to make you believe that the Federation is worse than the Empire with slanderous defamations and calumnies of the highest order. If you're the kind of person who is easily influenced and/or is ignorant enough to believe such fallacies, the Empire will welcome you with open arms!"

For those of you in two minds whether to take part tonight

That he which hath no stomach to this fight,
Let him depart; his passport shall be made,
And crowns for convoy put into his purse;
We would not die in that man’s company
That fears his fellowship to die with us.
This day is call’d the feast of Crispian.
He that outlives this day, and comes safe home,
Will stand a tip-toe when this day is nam’d,
And rouse him at the name of Crispian.
He that shall live this day, and see old age,
Will yearly on the vigil feast his neighbours,
And say “To-morrow is Saint Crispian.”
Then will he strip his sleeve and show his scars,
And say “These wounds I had on Crispian’s day.”
Old men forget; yet all shall be forgot,
But he’ll remember, with advantages,
What feats he did that day. Then shall our names,
Familiar in his mouth as household words-
Harry the King, Bedford and Exeter,
Warwick and Talbot, Salisbury and Gloucester-
Be in their flowing cups freshly rememb’red.
This story shall the good man teach his son;
And Crispin Crispian shall ne’er go by,
From this day to the ending of the world,
But we in it shall be remembered-
We few, we happy few, we band of brothers;
For he to-day that sheds his blood with me
Shall be my brother; be he ne’er so vile,
This day shall gentle his condition;
And gentlemen in England now-a-bed
Shall think themselves accurs’d they were not here,
And hold their manhoods cheap whiles any speaks
That fought with us upon Saint Crispin’s day.

Hi well I will be online for most of the Battle . -RANGERS- just for this test and as my teamspeak is supporting the Empire I think we should all fly as Empire Pilots . Though as always please chose your own way and your own Allegiances remember any red target shoot first , and the teamspeak has a Ranger channel and I will be sending the password to all of you and any new Cmdr's .

Can't pass up on this, will be there as long as my dodgy internet holds up. Will be shooting at anything Imperial, and trying not to crash into anything Federal.

n00b question

Forgive my question but, how do I select a side in endless battle? It seems everyone is showing up as orange to me, no matter if I have attacked someone or not? Thanks!

I'd be happier with my Emperor as a rotting corpse god who sits in a throne of gold! But seeing as the empire renounced peace and turned to rule by might in its first moments then why not:)

Sorry I meant; For the Emperor;)

Erm, Not to rain on anyone's parade, but there seems to be rather a lot of AI friendly fire going on in Endless War, for me at least. Tends to make the battles... short. :(

I cannot see the forum posts for the Teamspeak channels as they are blocked to me so I cannot login to either. Please Empire and Federation, feel free to pm with with logins.

When I do start playing this game I am not going to be Empire or Federation. I'll be a typical Browncoat Alliance member. I rather like their politics.
