Usage

{{Faction Infobox

| name = 
| type =
| image = 
| imgsz =
| origin = 
| alignment = 
| affiliation =
| founding-date = 
| dissolution-date =

| base = 
}}

server can be one of these choices:

  • GC (Default)
  • UK
  • USA
  • DOD
  • BERLIN
  • F7
  • FLAW
  • DELTA

type can be one of these choices:

  • NPC
  • OFFICIAL
  • GROUP

affiliation

  • will need a [[link]] to be effective

Example

{{Test Faction Infobox
| server = 
| name = Red Hessians
| type = 
| image = Freital.jpg
| imgsz =
| origin = {{House Link | Rheinland}}
| alignment = UNLAWFUL
| founding_date = 700
| dissolution_date = 
| leader = 
| founder = 
| primary_role = Liberation of Rheinland
| secondary_role = Undermining corrupt Rheinland corporations, containing the Corsair expansion
| base = [[Vogtland Base]], [[Dresden]]
}}

Note: The imgsz variable allows you to specify the size an image is displayed at (Example: 128px) and is best used to keep an image from being stretched and distorted. If no value is placed in this field the image will be sized to the default value of 264px.

The No. Outcast splinter faction was founded in 800 AS, and it has had an illustrious past. It was the brainchild of Pedro Portillo, a gifted scientist involved in cardamine research. He was annoyed at the restrictions on research caused by the corruption in the Council of Dons, which divided efforts and prevented effective research. Portillo collected a group of like-minded scientists and the No. was formed.

The original name of the No. was actually the Independent Cardamine Research Division (ICRD), which, under Portillo, began making significant progress in the field of modifying cardamine. However, the scientists found that in order to collect source material and vital resources, they had to venture out of the safety of Galicia Research Station. The ICRD found Omicron-81 very safe, as no enemy could penetrate multiple Outcast systems to get there. However, when venturing into neighbouring Omicron-80’s far reaches to conduct research, they found a few bounty hunters patrolling, looking to snap up random patrols. Portillo’s Sabre, named No.Rest, and the defensive Maltese Navy contingent was barely enough to repulse the attack, and Portillo returned to Galicia needing more power in order to further his research.

Portillo approached a well-known Outcast on Seguro Refugio, Guerra Diaz, and asked him for help. Guerra was more willing than Portillo had expected, and offered to join the No. as his second in command. Portillo, seeing that Guerra was an able scientist as well as a fearsome warrior, agreed. Guerra immediately set to work organising Navy aid and recommended various Outcasts to Portillo for recruitment. He renamed his Sabre No.Regret.
