Sirius war 2 (WW2)

Could use some help with faction names guys!
I created about 30 new systems representing Europe in WW2
(i named it SW2=Sirius War 2) and now i am low on ideas for factions.
My recent ideas are: Mafia Italiana (Sicily: criminals)
Fachists (Lazio: criminals)
Italian Chain (North Italy: traders and industrials)
Eastern Europe Mining Asocciaton ( Russia,Ukraine,
Chechoslovakia...)
Western Europe Mining Asocciation (...)
Red Industrial Alliance ( ex-communist nations )
Baskis (Spain: separatists)
Catalons (Spain: traders)
Separatists (Corsica)

All ideas are welcome!


*edit* - pretty soon i may just start deleting threads with caps titles - maybe then people would take notice.

Do it according the past. The COMIS or REDS or BOLSHVECS (not spelled right)
For the russians.
Nazis, Germans, Fashists for you know who.
and so on and so on.

We Will fight in the space!
We Will fight on the planets!
We will fight in the fields and in the belts!
We will fight in the galaxies!
WE SHELL NEVER SERRENDER!!!

No need to double post Xen. We can read the original just fine.

You could help instead of grudging, kaegogi.
Thanks Stratos!

I'm not "grudging". I'm simply stating a fact. You have two posts on exactly the same topic that are dated less than 1 day apart. This second post was completely unnecessary and against forum policy. We can read your other post so there was no need for this one. Here's your other topic:

What's different? Why a second topic with absolutely no difference? It may not be a rule that you can't double post but it just makes sense and keeps all of us from wasting our time clicking in to a topic that we just read.
I went into your original topic with the intent to try and help if I could. Being unable to think of any good faction names I left without posting then I wasted thirty seconds of my life coming in here thinking maybe I could help just to find the exact same thing. Now I've spent another minute typing out what would appear to be common sense. I hope this wasn't wasted time as well.

Ok...I don't know if you've already thought of some of the ones I'm going to say..but here they are anyways;
Soviets(soviet spys, soviet trade union...stuff like that...)
Allied Forces

some that may be controvertial(sp?)
Gestopo(sp?)
Nazi(s)

umm....that's all I can think of...I'll post if I come up with more later.

Hammond in reference to Cassie levitating and spinning the knight chess piece: "How can she do that?"
Jack: "Magnets. Magnets, every, every one of those pieces has got a little tiny magnet in the bottom, to hold it on the board when you're driving so it doesn't rattle off. Anyway, every one of those magnets has got a little electrical field around it, that's how she was able to manipulate it. Magnets." Hammond stares blankly. "They do look like horses." Doc, Daniel, and Teal'c stare blankly.

My apologies, kaegogi. Sorry for wasting your time.
And could you PLEASE rename this thread to SIRIUS WAR 2 (WW2)?

Thanks, ZYCO!

The resistances from Belgium, France, and whatever else. Also, the home guard for Britain.

No I can't rename your thread Xen. I'm not a moderator, just a concerned citizen. You can rename your own thread by clicking the edit button on the topic starter.
Why don't you make some sub-factions that are highly friendly towards their over-faction and base their names on famous units, and their bases on famous battlegrounds/fronts/theaters?

MY GOD! After almost 2 hours i've collected about 700Kb of WORDS!!!
It will take days to read all the material, but at least i'll become an
expert on WW2 history

Seriously, i'll need some time to filter the info, but after that i'll need YOU guys to help me with this project, since it's too massive for one person to do all the work!

I need someone to help me create authentical ships,
like Me163 'Komet' and Me262 Messerschnitt (i can provide info on these)
I also need permission to use already created ships from WW2.

It's all for now guys, im going to bed!
