Empire Loyalties mapped to the real world..

I thought it would be cool to have a little fun posting game where we see what real-world entities map to our beloved Planetside Empires

I'm going to start with...

Microsoft = TR
Google = NC
Apple = VS

Jameson = TR (smooth, triple-distilled whiskey from the motherland)
Jack Daniel's = NC (rebellious Americans!)
Crown = VS (canada, lol)

Figured the whiskey deserved an explanation...the tech companies are fairly obvious.

Post away!

Marine Corps=NC (Blunt. Gets job done with shit for gear/weapons.)
Army=TR (I don't know why)
Air Force=VS (Technological. A bit sissy.)

U.S. by the way.
Royal Marines kick ass too. Crazy fuckers.

Mmm, I dunno.
The USAF is as good as the BAF, and they're both comprised of extremely skilled pilots.

Except our pilots (RAF) hit the right targets.

If RAF = accuracy then doesn't that make them VS?

Jet Li - VS
Vin Diesel - NC
Arnold Schwarzenegger - TR




NC - Russia
TR - China
VS - US
But I really want to remake it into NC - US, VS - Taliban, because of CnC Generals.

NOD=TR
GDI=NC
Scrin=VS

Word. Even though NC and TR should be switched, the colors fit.

Actually that could be a good marketing gig for PS2 - go to Ben & Jerry's and get 3 new ice cream flavors, one for each empire.

Could be good publicity for PS2, would have to be around or after launch though.
