I was LITERALLY stunned by that photo.

For about 5 seconds my brain just rejected all other inputs to try to understand what my eyes were seeing.

It was more effective than a tazer.

No, the NC are like... the French during WW2. Similarites can be found all over, especially in how they fight... i.e, running away most of the time. But also in their equipment and vehicles... out-dated junkyard crap. And if I'm not mistaken they're almost exlusively funded by hand outs.

Correct me if I'm wrong, but the NC's tanks actually keep working after being driven around for a while without engaging in any battles, yeah? As in they don't spontaneously break down due to driving through mud and on dirt roads and the like? I'm not buying the comparison.

The NC is like the Tea Party: fighting against the big evil government for freedom of powerful corporations.

How do you know how they fight? beside playing with real people. And using out dated weapons, or basically anything they can find its something a lot of guerrillas did. Like the Ukrainian Black Army, when they fought the bolsheviks.

The link between the NC and the companies was destroyed with the wormhole, apparently.

Considering the previews which showed how the weapons worked and how they were made of parts by various corporations, I'm sure some of the corporate executives came along and are still alive to run their companies (or branches of them, like the TR is a branch or evil clone of the Earth TR).

So who wants to play an NC corporate executive who doesn't do any fighting? Eh? Eh? You know you want to!

Unintended reference?

Yes they were. But colors similarity still remains.
Though I agree with you generally, NC and Makhnovtsi look ideologicaly alike. They both fight not for but against. Against authorities.

Forget about politics, it's the food. NC simply sounds like the faction with the real food, wether that would be poulet rôti or T-bone steaks.

No wonder the TR with their stale army rations and the VS with their bland nutri gel are so mad about the NC.

I think you would find that the VS have Heston Blumenthal on their side :P
