Referring to the historical question are you "true" to a particular faction like some people are to historical miniature armies are you loyal to a particular SF faction? To quote flashman 14's poll suggestion – I'm wondering if you find your loyalty changes if your historical opponent does.Example: I'm all in for Bonaparte when fighting the Russians or Austrians, but when I'm playing in the Peninsula, the only good crapaud is a dead one. WE2: I'm for Germany against the stinking commie Bolsheviks, but when the Brits or Yanks are involved, there's no greater evil than the fascist Nazis. Do you consistently maintain your allegiances? |

Sumerandakkad, If you see it as SF, then yes. |

In the broad categories you need to add "robots/cyborgs/articial creatures-intelligence" |

Fredrick, I will count you as a "G" currently but point noted. |

OH, FTR, I prefer A, in all its diversity. Loved the FGU Space Marines rules approach. |
