I had no idea Higby was a FLIP FLOPPER! As stated in my sig Higby clearly stated they where working on the Tri-Barled Velociraptor Launcher, with heat seeking technology even. But in the Faction Smackdown he throws it away like some joke

He realized that only Vanu possesses the technology needed to realize a weapon of that magnitude.

He's just back peddling as he works out the design for a new suicide puppy. Strap some C4 to the lil fella and put the trigger mechanism on it's tongue, so it goes off when the puppy starts licking the TR or VS target.

Obviously the NC are safe from being licked, because their armor smells so bad. Dogs sniff each others butts to get that NC armor smell out of their nose.

Xyn... You know anti-tank dogs are a real thing right?

I never meant to imply that the NC were original. Just puppy killers.

[Revanant]

Why would the NC need dogs in order to kill tanks? The NC already have the best anti-tank weapon in the game: the Vanguard.

Both the velociraptor gun and suicide dogs sound like VS technology. The VS are pencil-pushing geeks--of course they have to outsource their killer instinct.

After all, who is more likely to need help fighting--an army led by professional mercenaries, or an army led by professional scientists?

[Revanant]

If you're still in doubt, we can apply the time-honored "Whose getting laid tonight in a random bar?" test.

In the NC corner, we have:

1) Well-compensated ex-soldiers and cops who do corporate security.
2) The wealthiest and most important business owners and CEOs in the world.
3) Idealistic youth who are fighting the good fight.

On the VS side, we have:

1) Scientists.
2) Aliens.

The only liability in the NC corner is #3, and only because idealistic youth is a niche. They've got a slight crunch factor, but if the bar has any liberals, hippies, hipsters, naive idealists, or impressionable college students, #3 has it locked down. Also, if you've been to any of the Occupy _____(insert place) protests, I think you can agree that there are a fair number of counter-culture hotties mixed in among the granola.

In contrast, the only way the VS are getting laid is if they abduct somebody.

[Revanant]

As for the TR, they're all either lame goodie-two shoes who always follow the rules, or busy "playing soldier" for the TR and won't be home for months.

Either way, AYBABTU (All Your Babes Are Belong To Us).

If you don't show up, you can't play the game.

Based on the amount of forum rage the NC have generated over the years their slogan should be:

Iratus Es Frateri?

Means "are you angry brother?" which is about as close as you can get in latin to "u mad bro?"

[Coreldan]

My NC slogan will win. Just you wait

American scientists invented the nuclear bomb. Vanu scientists invented purple armor.

I don't think a doomsday weapon is coming down the pipeline anytime soon .

Fashions of mass disruption ?

That's a little thing called game balance.

Remember Lasher 2.0? Remember the Magmower? Those were but small tastes of Vanu's true power.

We play along and act like we are on par with TR and NC tech for the sake of gameplay, but we all know that the flag on the field of victory would be purple in a "real world" situation.
