Some of the rp posts in the communication part of the forum are real gems too, something I think this community can be really proud off.
No idea how that could be incorporated in a gif while looking cool though, perhaps some fading between a particular faction's RP post and one or some of their ships actually flying in space... I dunno, to me it seems to be a unique aspect that deserves praise.
-edit: I remember seeing a particulary badass gif going around in the baf discord showing the invasion of Gran Canaria.. though the multitude of ships in that gif might be misleading (if i remember correctly there seemed to be hundreds of them) the style was really great.
Tried looking for it but couldn't find it back, but I am sure people know the one I mean.
Whoever made that gif, that's the person you should look for!
