    • Favorite Governments


      Since EVO has two major wars going on, vote for best government in UE theatre and best in the Crescent. Also, explain why.

      For classic EV players, there is an (url="http://"http://www.AmbrosiaSW.com/webboard/Archives/Archive-000001/HTML/20001030-6-000187.html")archived thread(/url) discussing this in Classic EV, 10 pages, and a lot of fun to read. We also have a (url="http://"http://www.AmbrosiaSW.com/webboard/Forum6/HTML/001503.html")current thread(/url) on the EV board discussing this, so come on over and throw your two cents in. We particularly need some new Confed supporters to argue with.

      Anyway, my votes here are UE and Azdgari. I like the Azdgari mostly because of the Azdara, I can kick anything but an Igazra's butt in one of those, and it's been over a year since I played EVO. UE also because their fighters rock, and you can buy their cruisers. Their ships are like the Rebels in EV, faster, and possibly more powerful.

      Can't wait to see what kind of twists this takes.

    • Voinians and Azdgari. Ain't much more to say than that. πŸ™‚

    • Huron and Kayan. Huh? You mean you wanted me to stick to the choices you laid out? Fine, be that way...

      Between the UE and the Voinians, I prefer the UE, because the Voinian ships can rarely win a race with an asteroid, the Voinians are evil slavers of multiple races, and Earth is a much better name than "Voina". πŸ™‚

      As for the strands, my favorite is the Zidagar. I like the Zidara, and as characters the Zidagar make for the best storyline, simply because all their melodrama is so funny, especially if you take the time to think about the things the Zidagar missions talk about actually happening. Oh, and the Igadzra are paranoid and the Azdgari are ruthless raiders, so the choice is clear.

    • Human renegades are a pretty fun string. And the Voinians are fun to take for a change of pace. BTW, the Zidagar are actually pretty evil, in the time of before and after the pilot steps in they commit planetary genocide on two planets!! I kinda like the Azdgari for their competitive spirit and good fighting techniques.

    • OK, refresh my memory here, who are the Kayan? Like I said, I haven't played or had the game for like a year. I remember Huron, and we can bring minor govts into this as well, so I suppose they're a legal choice.

      And Warbeast, isn't it the Igadzra who blow up two planets?

      The Kayans are another name for those of the South Tip Station, I think. My choices are UE and Azdgari. UE is cooler, faster, and has the moral high ground; the Azdgari have the fastest ships and most aggressive tendencies. πŸ™‚

    • United Earth

      Faster ships, moral highground, better ships, less disadvantages, they have the UE
      Fighter, they have the UE Cruiser, they are human, they don't make you a "Criminal"
      for aborting a defence mission.

      Zidagar

      Moral highground (except nuking, which the Azdgari deserve), better ships, the colour
      purple, Zidaras, nice fast ships with power also, they treat you as friends.

    • The Emalgha because they are wimpy, slow, stupid, unimaginative, and lack resources, but damn do they put up a fight again and again and again.

    • UE, anyone who says not should go and live in a cave.
      Igadzra, because they're coooool.

    • BEST : Vononians Cause they are very evil and also Azdagari cause they r pirates and pirates are cool..

      WORST: EMALGHA!!!!!!!!!!! CAUSE THEY R SLOW CRAP AND ARE GENERALLY BAD...
      oh and um Miranu cause for all that technology they have they never use it cept for NPD and MIRANU GUNSHIP thats it .....

      The Igadzra blow up two uninhabited planets, but all in all, they have, I think, the least questionable military tactics of any of the combatants in the Crescent theatre. As for the main Good vs. Evil conflict, I'd have to go with United Earth.

    • Zidagar cuz they have the phazed(sp?)beam and the Zidagar ECM.

      UE cuz they have the UE cruiser and hunter rockets which can't loose their course (except for astoroids).

      Because these threads tend to be really fun; I have read 2 on the EV board, and thought you guys should get to have some fun with this too. Plus we need more confederates to argue with on the current EV topic... hint hint...

      And, Carno, you seem to be in a major minority siding with the Voinians here, you want to tell us why?

      ------------------

    • Best of the South-Western part of the EVO galaxy
      UE, generally because they have better spaceships, better names of their heroΒ΄s (Admiral MacPherson is better than Borb) and the fact that they are humans..

      Worst of the South-Western part of the EVO galaxy
      The Pirates, Kraits and Turncoats.. And donΒ΄t forget needle missiles.. Are they able to take out a shuttle equipped with a blaze cannon? NO!

      Best of the North-Eastern parts of the EVO galaxy
      Azdgari, they have the best and fastest fighters and I love the Azdgari warship... You cant get it, but you only have to buy a Crescent Warship and buy some outfits to have a fairly similar ship..

      Worst of the North-Eastern parts of the EVO galaxy
      Miranu, face it, the missions they give you are so funny you sometimes wonder why you even bought EVO. (I dont count the ZachitΒ΄s as MiranuΒ΄s).

      Because they and the Azdgari are better than everyone else. πŸ˜„ πŸ˜‰ Hey, I'm not saying that any of the other races are bad, I just like the Voinians and the Azdgari better. Not to mention the fact that if they allied they'd be totally invincible.

    • Emalgha, because they are so damn uppity. I'm so proud. Also, who could provide such a wonderful chassis for the DiscoBison?

    • I use to be a loyal United Earth follower, but I'm beginning to defect to the Voinians. Though I don't like their ships that much, I'm beginning to blow up UE ships rather often, thanks to Carno... πŸ˜‰
