Both are good, both are fun to play. Many people will say the Rebles, but I really don't care. If you would really like to know what people think, there is a chached topic that was really good on this subject. I don't remember where to find it though.

Or Independent. I prefer the Lethian to the Cydonians. Rebles and ConFed are too big to matter. Besides, the aliens could beat them both. :rolleyes:
depends on what your looking for. a particle beam and a huge ship with massive sheilding, then the confeds are where its at. tractor beam, cloaking device, faster ships, and the clear conscience of helping the underdog, the rebels are the way to go. of course, going independant, and trying to take over the universe completely on your own is an interesting challenge. i like to play all sides at least a little bit.

I prefer the Confederation to the Rebellion - peace is more valuable than concerns of the past. But, as has already been mentioned, there are plenty of "Confed vs. Rebel" topics around, including the eight-page one on the "Best of Escape Velocity Posts " page. Just for variety, let's turn this into a debate on minor governments.
I prefer New Cydonia to Lethe Prime, and UGE & Starbound Shipping to ConEx.

for GOOD missions Rebellion is the way to go. besides, the ships are cheaper and can run circles around the 'feds. the rebellion also has better items to get(cloaking device, tractor beam), vs. a particle beam that wastes fuel faster than an afterburner. oh yeah, the missions are a little easier. and the cruiser doesn't cost a freaking 20 million credits!!!! :mad: only a mere 14 million.

I like the rebbelion better, because you can shoot and kill anything other than the rebel ships with out hostility.

Where is this "Best of EV Posts" page?
UGE is best among small govts-- they pay far better than anyone else, and they uphold some standards of decent behavior (which undoubtedly will annoy the pirate types).

Lethian is better. the "deffend stellar system" mission pays more, and they have better items and a shipyard.
For the love of.... they are both week, pitiful and hold a gruge for a reason even they cant remember(if some one knows it please tell me). Plus they are both planets I have efortlessly crushed in my conquest for the galaxy.

The war is over water rights.

Judging by the planet pictures and landing pictures, cydonia is dry-- marslike, and lethe is earthlike. So I imagined that it went like this. Sometime in the past, Lethe agreed to supply Cydonia with water to help with terraforming. Later, Lethe cut off the agreement, and the war began... Or maybe, early on, Lethe was not able to do anything about Cydonians taking their water, but when they got stronger, they began fighting it.
I think that this kind of topic has come up many times in the past, and has just ended up in huge flame wars that would destroy the world if it was real flame. My point is, this topic is probably just going to burn up in flames completely.
