A quick reference for anyone to be able to see who is allied in what Galactic Alliance::
The Coalition and its thousands of factions:
-Rabki

Initiative of Zealots:
-Order

Kingdom, and its knights of the round table:
-Astrum
-Confederacy

Federal Bureau of Investigation:
-Fonoss
-Cythelu


League of Extraordinary Gentlemen(Leagueie weagueies):
-Chalsidii

EDIT: Since the Order are wishing to be a lone group, I classified them as the Initiative, which has no members currently. The Confederacy has made a make-shift alliance with the Astrum, so the Kingdom sounds a bit an obvious choice. Then, we have the Rabki, they considered either the federation or Coalition, so I just gave them the coalition.

I've done some looking around at the factions, and this seems, to your situation with the alliances, the only possible outcome.

I question your naming of us as Leaguey Weagueys. We are not the League of Robots, nor do we even have robots. :p Also, why do you have to give them names when either nobody is in the alliance or it's just one person, such as me? The only genuine alliance we seem to have so far is the Fonoss and the Cythelu, and I'm looking good with the Cythelu, so I may well end up joining that alliance. I think this whole set of alliances has to end, SWG. The idea has been tried, tested and failed, now it needs to be retired. Put this idea out to stud where it can have lots of little idea babies and then one day they can grow up into real ideas and we'll find them and use them.
I hope I am a good enough writer that some day dwarves kill me and drink my blood for wisdom.

Scenario 1:

Chalsidii ally with Cythelu, and then Fonoss. They thus gets drawn into the Fonai-Rakbi conflict, and we've got a 3v1 situation going on, giving me lots of opportunities for valiant last stands and naval battles (:p) in which I can go all "awesome-amphibian-navy-whoopass" on you, but still have to give way under pressure.

Scenario 2:

Chalsidii have a falling out with Cythelu, and declare war. Fonai join in fight with Chalsidii. Rakbi and Chalsidii throw a makeshift pact together, in which the spoils of war shall be divided primarily based on climatology.

Take your pick, Vort.

The Cythelu are a peaceful mixture of races, if one of their allies attack or are attacked by an enemy, it'll take a direct hostile confrontation from the enemy to make them battle with them. Even then, they'll be idiots and ask for peace. :p

So far, I'm probably going to be the peace-maker and only faction really allied with all the factions. Well... Except the Order, it'll be me versus the Order. I don't plan on anyone else fighting against them unless the Order feel a bit of hunger for power going on.

EDIT: I can't help it, I'm a gun-lover and enjoy Military and all about it, but I just like being the Pacifist. :dry:

It seems that Fonoss and Cythelu have peace in their own ways. I think the alliance should not be too specific. We can slowly build our alliance or enemy during the RP. There is no rush to make allies (and don't forget that most races seem to distrust outsiders). Trust must be earned.

glad you noticed the reference :p

The only genuine alliance we seem to have so far is the Fonoss and the Cythelu, and I'm looking good with the Cythelu, so I may well end up joining that alliance.

Put this idea out to stud where it can have lots of little idea babies and then one day they can grow up into real ideas and we'll find them and use them.

Hey, i was just trying to keep a convenient record for the system that was in place. I was making my faction and thought 'hmm, what alliance should i be?' then went to check out who was in what alliance and found it to be a bit awkward, so i decided to make this thread to keep track of it all.

There is the five galactic powers, even though now some have no members factions in them, which it seems have been sorta kept for my original plan, although things have become a bit muddled up, what with the new leaders allowing friendships between people from different alliances which by my original plan were never suppose to happen.

If things had gone how i had planned then things would not be so mixed up, but it is up to the new leaders to do whatever they want with this now, not me, and they have kept part of this without planning out properly the changes they are going to make.

I'm not saying this is bad or anything, im just saying that because of this it seems that the alliances concept is a little 'out-dated' in this new Worlds of War cas/mike/dur edition. Not working how they were going to be working had i decided to remain in charge.


I say, like i have said before, that you three leaders get your asses into gear( :dry:) and have a big planning session, then reformate this as you will and get things organised, instead of this half muddled up RP it is right now with stuff from me still being used despite it not completely fitting with how things now are.

Get in, delete posts, put up nice fresh new ones, with new registration form fitted to your new direction with this RP, and have everything to do with the new Worlds of War all fixed up.

Give me 'til Monday afternoon and I'll have a storyline that will blow your socks off. Just ask Vort :xd:


EDIT: The Confederacy and Astrum are more-or-less together, as well.

admin powers are fun. SWG: yes they are :P

Before you go all out and give us a huge storyline, how about we make our own little topic and start throwing ideas at eachother until we have something well written we can all agree on? It'll sure help in with the controversy, and we'll be able to launch the idea into action around the time we finished collaborating it. If SWG has a great urge, then I guess it'll be Mike and Casojin's decision to allow you to help out to, since we all know you like to whine when it doesn't go your way.

EDIT: You could say I was tidying up a small bit yesterday; but to go further with this, I'd need the OOC- Forum removed and replaced with a Faction's Archive. If the leaders can delete the unnecessary thread on the bottom, we could have a strict forum based sub-section, which I bet for you all is a bit over the top organizing. In that case, all I really need is the OOC and the Faction's Archive swapped, so that the factions are in their own sub-section, and the OOC out in the open.

Or instead of making unnecessary work for the admins/moderators, just leave it how it is.
Its not like it makes any difference what so ever...

Well SWG it not true that it matters... when I first joined WoW I tried to get my friend to join too but he didn't because the info for WoW was and is still not layed out very well.


A better layout would be to have one forum with 3 sub-forums

One for OCC; this is solved by the using the Court of the Space Pope (nothing really needs to be changed).

One for faction informantion and storyline; this is solved by using the Galactic Archives, just move the race info into a faction section and the storyline into a plot section with both under the Galactic Archives.

and One for old info; just use the The Athenaeum for this.

Alternatively, just move all the faction details into the Athenaeum. That is, after all, the Worlds of War repository of all knowledge.

Why does everything have to be in a sub forum? its fairly obvious that the main section is for faction registration, the court is for OOC, and the galactic archives are for the actual RP'ing, and then athenaeum as just an archive sub-fourm to keep the old Worlds of War intact. In even says as much in the little descriptions.

Seems like your friend just didn't want to play, but didn't want to come out and say it to you so instead came up with some excuse not to ;)

I think we should move those faction thingy into Galactic Archives and move the story out into open.
Galactic archives should be something that provide information and data while the easy-to-access forum should be a place to create our story.
