New Republic/Sith Poll

At the request of Redwatch I thought I'd put up a poll about the current numbers on the Sith vs. Republic faction debate. Obviously this isn't the final poll, that will be posted up when we get our full quota of members. I just need an idea of which way we're leaning at the minute for recruitment and story purposes. Thanks!

I voted the republic, but it can change when more information come out.

I voted Sith as that makes the most sense for the Guild if (as we assume) Bounty Hunters are Galactic Empire only.

All my characters are Republic at the moment (Ree'tak, Valik and Hollister) but I can quite happily make a brooding emo...er...I mean "Sith"

My heart says Republic but like LW says, it makes sense for this guild to swing Empirewards due to the game's heavy faction divisions. So I voted Empire.

I can always solo the Republic later down the line.

I voted Republic because I think a lot of people's mains are Republic based and I think that affects the character more than the class. For instance, my character is a bounty hunter but I doubt I would choose bounty hunter as my class because from what I've seen I don't think Bounty Hunters use melee. But even though I would choose a different class, I would still RP my character as a Bounty Hunter. But my vote is subject to change.

Jeez Louise you guys have shocked the living hell outta me!! I expected this so far:

Lord Nord - Sith
Lunarwolf - Republic
Redwatch - Republic
Black Heart - Sith

Have I entered an alternate reality or something?!! Or am I so ill I'm hallucinating? As you probably know already I voted Sith purely because it fits perfectly with the guild.

I've been thinking about this recently actually. The more I think about it the more I think it makes sense to start another guild as well a bit later on. As long as people agree that it'll be an 'alt guild' of sorts I think we'll be fine.

I voted Republic, because i always think myself as a republic type of person.

but i dont mind wich way it goes in the grand sceam of things, but Republic would be my 1st choice. plus most of the cool worlds would be held by the rebublic, but were are yet to see how planets are done via only one faction can go there or if theres a WAR like system in place

I voted republic because i think this guild will be more fun to play as a shady guild amongst good people then a shady guild amongst evil people. I expect more interesting roleplay... As it goes for classes i don't think it is such a big issue. Important thing is what we roleplay not the class name bioware gave us. Saying that i agree completely with BH.

I would go for Republic at the moment, however I'm sure this could change depending on how the classes are spread.

I voted Republic

In the Republic, there will probably be few bounty hunter guilds, if any. We'll be a minority with little competition so will get more buisness. In Sith, every other person will take Bounty Hunter/Mando if not Sith and so we'll be struggling to reach the lime light. I also like the feel of the bad person in the good place and the heavy contrast we'll make with all the other goody-two-shoes guilds will be fun.
