I am going to be going Vanu for these reasons:
1. Uniform ammo type- The Vanu empire weapons all use energy instead of regular and armorpiercing bullets, allowing a Vanu soldier to switch quickly between different types of targets.
2. Hovering ability- The vanu-specific crafts have the ability to hover, which allows the user to ford some bodies of water and to be much more mobile than the other 2 empires. In turn, by being mobile, the user has more room for skill in maneuverability rather than trusting in sheer firepower to smite opposition.
3. Lasher - To me, this sounds like the gun that requires the most skill in the game. From what I have read, it sounds similar to Unreal Tournament's bio-rifle, where the shooter must time when to shoot and judge projectile speed vs. target movement. The reward? I assume a direct hit with the lasher's projectile will do devastating damage. In the event of a slight miss, the lasher will 'lash' out and still strike the targt, doing still a little damage.
just my two cents.
