I will be gone for about a week. NOVA will probably be released while I'm gone (damn! :p). So, as a final post before my departure, I leave you with a poll, the likes of which haven't been seen here in months. Lots of new people have come since that time, so there'll be different opinions.

Chose: The Letheans or the New Cydonians?

Bye, everyone.

Lethe. It's New Cydonia's own dang fault that they don't have water.

Lethe. New Cydonia sounded like the bad team from the beginning, even before I found out about the water rights.

Have a good one, Luke.

Forgive me if I'm wrong, but I believe both sides use the same ships...

Yes they do.

Lethe, because they are closer to the pirate planet in which you can disable and steal alot of ships.

The only difference in ships is that Lethe uses Rapiers, while New Cydonia uses Lightnings.

I believe that Lethe pays 10,000 credits more for the defense mission, has a shipyard, and a more hospitable planet. I tend to like them better.

Yeah, now I remember. I always get annoyed watching those Cydonian Lightnings murder the slower Lethian Rapiers...

Correct about the credit pay.

There's always a spoiler. Darn Cydonians, just like the Confeds... Fighting for complete control.

New Cydonia.
Their name is much cooler, which is the only reason I chose them!
"Lethe" reminds of "leche" which is Italian and Spanish for "milk", and who wants to fight for that, when you can fight against it?

Confederation sounds cooler than Rebellion, so I'll side with the first choice...

...Something sound wrong with that picture?

Lethe.

I love Rapiers. Yes, that's my reason.

As for Lethe, I think that's actually one word for hell, or a guardian of hell, in some mythology... (Greek maybe? It's in the Aries system) Seems like the planets got each others name, as Lethe is pretty nice while New Cydonia looks rather hellish.

It's Cydonians, not New Cydonians.... right?

Well, I choose Cydonian. Why? Because they sound like a race that may be like the Klingon. Plus I like the Cydonian in my upcoming Plug-In. Yep, that's right: I'm going to have strings for every government including Lethe, Cydonian, and Pirates.

I haven't been in that area of the galaxy for awhile, but I remember the Cydonian and Lethe ships having different characteristics in terms of weaponry and AI behavior aside from using different ships sometimes.

For the record, Lethe is in the Lethe system, and New Cydonia is in the Aries system.
