my idea of why the NC dont have much of a backing

[diluted]

well.. it seems as though they're the middle children. we all had an idea coming into this, or at least being 3 empires, that they'd be specialized. terrans are the ballistics people, using lead and traditional force. also im sure you had an idea of an energy-using race. much like human vs covenant in the game HALO. well what about that other empire? they dont seem too special on the outside because of the ideas of having to be close range using shotguns or whatever the concept was. in other words on the outside, people will look at them as nothing special - just an imitation of the terrans. well there's my 2 cents.
