That's kind of hilarious, because one of my factions, The Sons of Oceanus, is a faction based on the pursuit of happiness and luxury, or essentially "The 1% Faction."
The leader and her prime citizens have themselves cloned and the clones form up the majority of the population and they slave away so that their original masters live like gods.


And their symbol, them being aqautic (among other reasons) is an octopus.
What are their stats, out of curiosity?

You can see all about them on page 9 of my custom factions thread.

Went with the Octopus Fist logo. Looks pretty decent actually! Green and Red are excellent revolutionary colors.

Progress on the Genome Syndicate graphics. No idea what I'm going to do with the bases.

Can you tell that the leaderhead is hispanic?

For all intents and purposes, she could even be Belgian.  :D

Fair enough!

Still need bases though...

Genome Syndicate is gonna be high-tech.  May or may not have a genetic superman nietzschean thing going, for all I've paid attention.

Shining towers of science.  Much more shiny and towering if there's a Nazi element - RL research facilities outside academia tend to have a rather bland high-end office facility look...

Alternative leaderhead. It's Gina Torres. Which do you like better?

I kind of like the first one better, has a bit of a more... scientific look to her. The other seems more bureaucratic looking.

Both are nice - I guess Gina Torres looks too much like that chick from Firefly and a bunch of other Whedon shows, which is sorta hard to get past - too distracting.

Mind you, the impulse to have an ethnically diverse future is a correct one.  I often have to remind other modders to not go all white and/or male, so you're ahead on that one. ;b;

And the Lord God said, 'Behold, the man is become as one of us, to know good and evil: and now, lest he put forth his hand, and take also of the tree of life, and eat, and live forever, we must send him forth.' Therefore the Lord God sent him forth from the garden of Eden, to till the ground from whence he was taken.
~The Conclave Bible
