| We've been freestyling some handy reference points for people and these are our first thoughts. Please remember, we've tried to make sure that none of the factions are purely good guys or purely bad guys -- that's for history to decide! What have we missed off? What have we got wrong? Dawning Light - Spanish and Italian anti-fascist fighters in the 1920s and 30s, May 19 Communist Organisation, The Weather Underground, Black Panthers, Red Army Faction, Heaven's Gate, Seventh Day Adventism, and Aum Shinrikyo Duke Ladrill's - Maoist Theory of People's War, a bit of Die Hard 2 and The Rock for their NPC leader, and now with the stirrings of Hordism there are shades of the Islamic Revolution (Iran) and the rise of the Taliban (Afghanistan) Free Thought Radicals - Socialist Workers Party, National Union of Students, the trade union movement generally, insurrectionary anarchism Velvet Glove - Mission: Impossible, Metal Gear Solid 2, Illuminati, Templars, NWO and Majestic 12 Wayfarers Guild - the Guild from Exalted, the film Lord of War, plus Halliburton, Blackwater and elements of the Mob

Typical, humans run into OUR holy place with an ancient artifact blowing up our people and themselves but still it's the Orcs that get the reference to terrorist suicide bombers :p

I could get really technical here, but :
a) it was the Crimson Blades, not the Dawning Light, who blew themselves and loads of orcs up :-p
b) I'm talking more about the Taliban from '96-'01 and the rise of the Iranian theocracy by military effort than latter-day terrorist activity. Ugluk is a guerrilla fighter, not a terrorist. For now.

Precisely my point. Humans is humans.

So they are basically meant to never get anything done Having been on the National Executive of that august organisation, I must say...yeah, kinda. But they talk a good fight. *grin* Although, having, said that, this site is worth a read.
