  I understand both sides' point of view in this conflict.  Unfortunately for the UEF, I have to side with my brothers and sisters in the GTVA, because they're the ones who trained me and they're the ones I've been fighting alongside for the last ten years.
  So I don't think you're a horrible person.

Necrothreaded.

I don't think Laporte has fought for the GTVA for ten years. What are you talking about ?

[KyadCK]

Or trained her, except in an indirect way (target practice).

[MatthTheGeek]

Well, 18 months are hardly 10 years. Someone has his chronology wrong.

The Buntu are trapped in the fourth wall, quickly, nuke the universe!

Erm.... Laporte was never mentioned by him, so what are YOU talking about?

He sides with the GTVA because HE fought alongside them (against the Vasudans, Shivans and NTF) for the last 10 (real world) years. No mention of Laporte there.

I'm just having a little fun while letting it be known which side I'm on, and letting Drogoth know that I don't think he's not a horrible person.  Laporte's a good pilot, I hope I don't have to take her down.

When playing WiH, you're Laporte. Simple as that.

A Schizophrenic in a campaign with ambiguous morales on either side. It's not like you can fault the guy.

The way I see it the loyalty chain goes UEF<GTVA<Gefs, cos the Gefs are the good guys.

Better than cowardly die on your knees begging for mercy.

Good point, cannot really think of a more humiliating defeat, knowing that you've failed and there is nothing you can do about it.

Are the Gefs really good?, cause they kinda get smattered around by both sides a bit. IMO anyway.

[MatthTheGeek]

We've only seen a very tiny portion of the Gefs for now. Between Gefs supported by the Tevs, those supported by the UEF, those guns for hire for both sides and those neutral, what we've seen until now is just a fraction of the tip of the iceberg. Keep in mind they are powerful and clever enough to have resisted to the full might of Third Fleet long before WiH.

We're likely to see more of the Gefs in part 2. Probably those founded by Feds, even.

When posting on a forum I am myself. Simple as that.

[MatthTheGeek]

When posting on a forum, you aren't fighting for the GTVA either. Your point ?

[Luis Dias]

This is gettin extremely poignant and important to follow up. Keep it going!

My point is that you simply misunderstood Damages post. Since there is no shame in that, I'm at a loss why this tiny matter has grown into such a heated debate...

[Damage]

Yeesh, to think such a can of worms opened up with such a little joke.  No wonder the Shivans want us destroyed.  This is like those people who dress up in Trek uniforms and wear them into a courtroom like they're actually official representatives of Starfleet (and by the way make the rest of us sane ones look like weirdos, thanks a lot!)  I just want Drogoth to know he's not alone and those of us left in 3rd Fleet Capella (in exile) are there with him.

And no I'm not literally a member of 3rd Fleet.

I was in 6th Fleet.
