I was just wondering what side you guys will take for the FPE and why. Is each side beneficial in a certain way... or is there not much of a difference?
Kurzicks:24
Luxon:14
Undecided:11
Luxon or Kurzick
awesome sauce
studentochaos
I will take whichever side declares themselves opposed to University of Michigan (nice avatar). I am guessing the elitism and social darwinism of the Kurzicks makes them closer to that school, so lets say Luxon until i have more information.

I honestly hate both, neither truly appeals to me...
But our guild does prefer stability, civilization and order over a nomadic lifestyle, so I suppose we will be siding with the Kurzicks. I'd just like to say that that Kurzick Faction Transfer NPC in the Guild Halls looks sooo wierd...

From guildwiki...
Sounds eerily like Rohan (the nomadic/rural Luxon people) versus Gondor (the civilized/order-based Kuzrick people).
Luxon
The Luxons are a seafaring nation in the continent of Cantha who lived by the Jade Sea. Since the Jade Wind turned that sea into solid jade, they have become a nomadic nation mining the solid sea for treasures and traveling on great ships pulled by giant turtles or snails. The Luxons are locked in a constant feud with the Kurzicks.
Luxons are divided into three clans: The Serpent, the Turtle and the Crab. They are governed by the Council of Elders. Their clans often clash in skirmishes to demonstrate power. Such skirmishes take place between champions on opposing sides accompanied by their elite guards.
Kurzicks
The Kurzicks are a religious people that make their homes in the Echovald Forest. They are one of three nations on the continent of Cantha. The Kurzicks are at continuous war with the Luxons.
Since the death of Shiro Tagachi, the Kurzicks slowly crept into the Echovald Forest and settled there. They have carved their homes and buildings in the trunks of the giant petrified trees.
The Kurzicks are a spiritual people who see signs in everything around them. Divination and foreseeing the future have a prominent place in their culture. Their society is a church-state governed by the Council of Nobles who stipulate laws and make decisions based on the guidance of their spiritual leaders, the Redemptors. There are five Great Houses that lead the Kurzick nation with lineages that can be traced to the earliest history of Cantha and beyond.

hmmm... I'm kinda leaning Kruzicks, but I still don't know enough about either group to justify me picking one or the other.
I'll just wait until tomorrow to find out more into.

Definitely Luxon.
I'd go with them just cause it reminds me of Farscape, but as an added bonus being a pirate helps fight global warming!

I'm only worried that the Luxons might be a bit of a noob magnet. Not that i have anything against noobs, but in large numbers...well they can be a bit overwhelming...

I don't know what I dislike more... Siding with everyone in the game (luxons) or siding with religious zealots (kurzicks)... Oh well... I'll just wait and see what my guild does.

I'm going with Kurzicks on this one. They're more religious, which means (hopefully) more ways of entering FoW/UW.

Diablo???
No one can beat the Kurzicks, and you know what they all say about someone you can't beat..
Stranger The Ranger
Kurzicks, I'm a Ranger, I belong to the forest :P
Diablo???
Just curious, what if the majority of GW players all decided to join Kurzicks, what would the Luxon do? better question, what would Anet do to help the Luxon gain membership?
FeuerFrei
Thats a good qn...
Anywayz...i was leaning towards the Kurzick until i saw those horrible pics lol...they remind me of snobbish ppl...and i hate ppl like that...
so...guess ill make the decision later

I dunno, but I always go with the things nobody else wants, like when nobody wanted to be monk when the game came out. Then while everyone else sat around for 20 minutes looking for a party, I would be invited in before I could even load the town.
I guess that puts me at luxon.

Who are the good guys and who are bad guys I don't know at this time?
Feng Leung
Yeah, by this rate...everyone will be kurzick, for it's anti-mainstream, meaning...it will become mainstream. This proves to be a interesting situation. Like with macs, first off they were like off way in the corner, with core enthusiasts, but then came the age of iPod, and yeah.
But for my vote, Luxon, since well, a pirate guild isn't just for the name.

If Anet's smart, the key number in the balance of Power have always been Three, not two. If there's another faction to disbalance the rivalry between Luxon and Kurzick, then we wouldn't have to worry about one of the factions being overpowered.

I'll try 'em both out during the weekend, then hopefully I can make some sort of decision.

well i see it like this, historicly speakin kurziks are like the greek city athens (all religious and civilized) and luxons are like sparta (all nomadic and not ciivilized). so i would choose civilization over nomads thoguh sparta did win the war gainst athens. o well.

I wanna try out both first, just so at least I've experienced both sides, and then just choose the one that best fits my guild and I.

Kurzicks look at lot cooler.

Luxon, as well as the others in my guild.
Fellow Luxons follow the clan of the Turtle we ride (Slowly) to victory.

I'm a ranger. I belong in the forest ^^.
What will I charm.. sea serpents? Roflmao no.
Just a question. Can you be in the same guild as a Luxon if your a kurzick?
If not.. I can see some major guild splitting.
So many guilds will die.
