We have around 300-400 players on an average weekday. It's not too much but....
Anyway, I asked Alpho a while back about the addition of a third faction in some form. He was against adding more factions at the time because the playercount was too low. But what about now?
I actually have an interesting idea for one. Alpho said the Mexican army probably won't make the cut, but what about a "Crusader" faction? It could be a group from Europe wanting to bring back the ways of ye olde knights seeking land to establish a new country so they can build up a new kingdom valuing chivalry and such. Weapons used by this faction could include crossbows and swords with shields, as well as some muzzleloading firearms. Graphics such as bodies and hats could be 1600-1700s style European clothing and armor.
