I’d one day like to write a guide on roleplay ideas but to be honest i’d have no idea where to begin.

Can always draft and edit it as you go along and clean it up.

You know i’m writting a roll play guide right now. It’s more about general RP but I could use some infromation faction specific RP. If you want to write some stuff for it then I would be happy to include it.
Don’t expect a master piece on my part however.

Yeah go ahead.
Here’s some simple ones:
The UA is primarily made up of Canada, the USA and all of latin america (including cuba) so your marine can be from anywhere in the america’s, other UA branches include the United States Aerospace Force who work closely alongside the USCM, the Latin American Colonial Navy, and the Canadian Colonial Armed Forces, additionally the US Army still exists.
3WE has India, Japan, Australia, the UK some of main land europe, oceania and parts of africa, most notably kenya, the 3WE has a rather small military consisting mainly of the IASF and RMC.
The UPP is composed of Spain, Germany, Russia, China, Vietnam, Korea, and eastern europe, it’s forces are under the UPP Armed Collective, this includes the UPP Army, UPP Navy, UPP Space Operating Force (Kommandos) and UPP Ministry of Space Security (Space KGB)
I really want to see people do more then Russian or Brit as ERTs.

You did not say who controls china in this situation.

Fun fact: China originally had it’s own superpower called the C/ANC (Chinese/Asian nation cooperative) , however the UPP absorbed it after C/ANC lost a bunch of colonies to the UA.

I came here in search for the answers…
What do “HMS” and “SSV” in the TWE’s and UPP’s ship designations stand for?
Also I’m curious about the Aliens’ ship naming conventions in general

HMS is the real designation for most British Military ships, it means his/her majesty’s ship, or HMS.

So the UPP on mutiple occasion are said to be overcroweded and have a massive population. Is their an explination for that.

Probably because it’s half of europe and asia, including china, the most populated country on earth.

So why are their xenos on all these diffrent planets. They can’t use space traval so who put them their. If it was engis using them as weapons who where they fighting.
In AVP the explanation is preds like hunting so they brought xenos to hunt them, in alien lore it’s engineers brought them places, usually carrying them on their ships as bioweapons, the most likely explanation as to what the engineers used them against is probably planets they considered too rogue and such, like how they drop black goo on UA and UPP colonies with Bioweapons labs, Bioweapon labs are also probably the third biggest xenomorph infestation causer.
so basically: LV 624 = Preds, Solaris = Bioweapons, Trijent = Bioweapons, engineers and preds i believe, Fiornia = Alien 3/bioweapons, Hybrisa = Engineers, Shiva’s = Found in the ice, probably from a crashed ship, Sorokyne = Bioweapons probably, Kutjevo = Bioweapons, Chances = Bioweapons.

Does it ever say what the engis messed with to make the first xeno.

I’ve also noticed that on Hybrisa, one of the shuttles from the W-Y bio research lab hangar is missing. I suspect that it can be the cause of an outbrake on a future map from the same creator.

Most likely it just left before the Xenos escaped or it wasn’t scheduled for that day.

Okay i’m going to start doing discount lore tidbits here:
Despite what the UPP wiki page says, the Mainline UPP from the RPG has a President and Premier, the President being head of state and the Premier being the head of the state council, unlike the wiki page where it’s a chairman.

As far as I can tell doing some research myself, they never used any sort of house name for the imperial family, ever. Allegedly they’re descended from the goddess Amaterasu, and below you can see a mythological family tree for the imperial dynasty, but at no point do they seem to have a name that isn’t either a reference to the land (Yamato) or a title (Kōshitsu)
I think just using Yamato would be the most appropriate as a ‘house name’ for the imperial family, and simply Windsor-Yamato if they merged with the british royal family.

Why do preds use a mix of primative and advanced tech. I know it’s likely a social reason but what is it.
Also do people in the lore know that pred’s exist. I mean they don’t seem to care about covering up their murders and one even showed up in the middle of new york in the 80’s. I know in the game you’r supposed to not know they exist.
