Nation and similarity

nuqHm · Post by **nuqHm** » Thu, 21. Oct 04, 14:10

Where are you from and which X-Universe race bears the most resemblance to your fellow country-beings.

Obviously - Not PHYSICAL resemblance

Sorry about some of the crass groupings but the poll will only allow a limited number of options.

CGrand · Post by **CGrand** » Thu, 21. Oct 04, 14:20

For the brits?

I recon the boron, high tech but fairlypeachfull

Not much in the way of army but supported by another large power, dislike of heavy weaponary

and of course royalty

If only this were till the case. Sadly, Britain is being taken over by 'chavs' - abusive idiots with no respect for anyone or anything.

So perhaps the Split

FWIW here's what the X-Universe races remind me of:

Argon - USA
Boron - Europe
Paranid - Islamic Countries
Split - Former USSR
Teladi - Japan (also the Hanseatic League)

Yeah, I think the Boron are good candidates for Brits but also think the Teladi are contenders. Agressively mercantile, links to pirates

(in the old days

), generally friendly but not to trusting to start with

Couldn't agree more about the whole ganging up aspect of it.

I'm a fully signed up member of chavscum (miklatov)

. Great site though a lot of pent up rage on there.

As for the races, I can picture all of them as different countries apart from the Teladi.... hmmm

And militarily....

Argon - Europe - Middle of the road
Boron - China - Peaceable.
Paranid - US (big weapons and clumsy with friendly fire PSGs)
Split - Middle East. - Aggressive
Teladi - Australasia - M6 PWNAGE!

This is quite ironic, I noticed this just a couple of days ago and was thinking about mentioning it myself. Though I think the split are more like the chinese. Argon, definately US. The rest are not so easy to categorise. I wont say boron for UK, I don't like what it says about our women

rustamk · Post by **rustamk** » Thu, 21. Oct 04, 21:11

Although I am russian, I live in the UK. The best russia race is the xenon. (HA!) why? Because they have an "Iron Curtain" and they're dangerous, and their ships kick a**. Well, the K does. Boron seems like europe, argon like USA. I don't know the rest.

I agree about the "chuv" gang thing. My friend was attacked with a knife

for a 2 year old mobile phone, and they tried to take my dog away from me by grouping up 6 to 1! (my dog was small then). I never ever imagined that happen to me. At school (my old school) they wrecked havoc, and brought a very nice teacher to her tears. If I were president of the world ya know what I would do? Youre never going to guess.

I would build a power plant, a human power plant. It would be powered by placing the "chuv" in that rat-spinning thing in which the rats spin endlessly by running, and that would connect to a dynamo for making electricity, and I would make them run for a long time. Thatll teach em. If only I were president.

I'm from the Uk and proud of it, untill it's taken over

ya all know what i'm on about.

The brits can't be the boron since we've all been eating fish and chips since we was born, and boron don't eat them selves (way open for dirty jokes

)

no i stand by my point

I'm not say the british (or boron) military is ineffective in its own right - just alot smaller and needs help

Vaylon · Post by **Vaylon** » Fri, 22. Oct 04, 15:34

I don't like this new term "chav" I and everyone I know up here in the north has always called them townies or townie scrots. Giving thugs and louts a name at all just seems dumb, should just give them a nice little prison cell which they deserve!

rustamk · Post by **rustamk** » Fri, 22. Oct 04, 21:58

Negative, if they are in prison you waste money on them. Through your taxes you pay for their food, guards and all the stuff they do. They don't just sit strapped to a chair you know!

Now if they were in a power plant (chuvtrix

) then we would pay less for electricity, and pay less taxes, so I think this is really a good solution.

No, just the ones in the large cities!

C'mon, no race in the game is exactly like any real one, because if they were Egosoft might get sued. "Any resemblance to any person living or dead is coincidence." (Even if they really are!
