    Default Guess the Secret Faction

    OK, this is just for fun!

    Name the faction and their style traits - this is not serious so have some fun!

    The Quadratic Faction - Numerically outstanding in battle, economy is complex but runs like a charm. Of interest to the mathematicians only.

    The Spaniel Faction - runs around a lot and loads of energy, but easily distracted by a ball or stick. Friends with everyone.

    The Oompah Loompahs - small, orange and deadly with their secret weapon, the Wicked Witch of the West

    Peoples Liberation Front of Judea - not to be confused with the Peoples Judean Liberation Front - deadly, unless they come across their arch enemies the Peoples Judean Liberation Front!

    The Han Solo Faction - completely outgunned, but can do the Kessel Run in under 12 parsecs!

    The No Roman Faction - secretly Romans but pretending not to be Romans.

    Authentic Britons - big-bellied, beer swillers in the livery of their sporting heroes, and hooded or capped ne'er-do-wells who worship strange minor celebrity gods. Supplied with enough alco-pops the younger warriors - of both sexes - will pick a fight with anyone, while the elders will seek profit for themselves in everything they do.

    Alliances with other nations doomed to failure due to a deeply held belief that no-one - but no-one - has as much right to boss people around as they do. This superiority complex filters down to local levels where those from the south consider themselves better than those from the north, town and city dwellers superior to villagers and so on.

    Their most revered weapon is the beat-box chariot which deafens opponents, but negates any element of surprise as you can hear them coming for miles.

    Warcries include "Watchoolookinat" and "One-nil to the engerland!"

    A hard faction to win with, as the economy is too variable to plan ahead with.

    That'd make for an epic civil war, R:TW vanilla style, replacing Julii/Scipii/Brutii. And it'd probably be more historically accurate too

    I've been reading these forums for five years. That's one of the coolest things on here I've ever seen.

    Excellent and OOC.
    "So parents...hold on to your hats...the federal government is gonna give you 400 dollars for every child you have...so if you've got 1,000 kids...you're on freaking easy street. That's where you go, what is the government thinking? I mean wha, what do Congressmans' children eat -- MITES?!? All 400 dollars does is remind me how screwed I am; You'd be better off if you're Congressman just came to your door, and pissed on your foot."

    Now, like young Ceasar, I am forced into hiding...I'll smuggle out what I can when opportunities arise:-


    The Easijetti - these savage half-naked fanatics are rumoured by terrified victims to decend from the sky before desecrating coastal resorts far away from their native shores, particularly fond of Spain. Ferocious and loud night fighters. Red, white & blue loincloth causes fear. Best tackled in daylight as they sleep off their nocturnal exploits. Tend to return to the scene of their hideous crimes year after year. Many locals offer tribute in the form of noisy taverns bedecked with gaudy lights, and trinket merchants offering bright baubles and native artwork - but this only delays the terrible fate awaiting these unfortunate resorts once the beer god Stella possesses the tribe. Debate rages amongst academics as to whether the infamous knotted head cover has religious significance or is merely a sign of identification. Mysteriously, these warriors are very rarely seen in Britannia itself.

    Warcries include "Earwego! Earwego! Earwego!" and "Getyertissoutforthelads!"

    The Collegii. A tribe of young warriors, both male and female, rarely with any members over the age of 24 and those that are will behave as if they are still below that age. T

    There are two distinct sub-tribes, the Partii, who will readily resort to wild alcohol fueled parties, and can be dangerous if prevented from getting enough although conversely are easy to control with a plentiful supply. Need very little excuse to celebrate anything. Will be heard long before arriving at the field of battle with their loud whooping cries. Many will fight half or fully naked with slogans painted on their chests. Far more likely to fight naked in extreme cold.

    The second sub-tribe, the Nerdii are mild and unassuming, but should not be underestimated as they will likely be using highly developed technology to defeat all enemies, their big flaw is that if given access to a plentiful supply of new gadgets they will be ignorant to anything happening around them.

    Although of the same tribe, the Nerdii and Partii will rarely mix but they will present a unified front when challenged so long as they can be funded with the best weapons that money can buy (not their money though). The best way to defeat them is to cut off their funding when they will generally need to retreat to their tribal elders to obtain more funds.

    Flamingi Pigioi

    The faction of flaming pigs. All flaming pigs. As a marching army of bacon, no enemy will be able to resist the salty, savory thoughts of a hearty breakfast.

    There is no monetary system; only trading dried pork for military goods and fabrics...which they eat.

    They are lead by a black-spotted pig to show how advanced their understanding of fair diversity is.
