Okay. Plain and simple, there was enough interest for a heretic faction to be voted on. Voting yes means you're willing to have a small group of playable heretic characters lead by someone on the staff team to interact in the role-play, overseen by Llau and myself ( MrKill) so it doesn't get out of hand. Realize that they're likely not going to be very numerous and would only command, as per the suggestions, a small former Covenant warship (CCS Class Battle Cruiser? Perhaps a Destroyer?). Voting no indicates you do not want to see playable heretic characters until the events leading up to the great schism to stay as close to canon during the human-covenant war as possible. Vote locks 16FEB15 so make sure you've voted before you can't!

See, a joke would be like "A blind guy walked into a bar. Had to hurt"
This is serious. It's something that a growing number of people want to see, and perhaps its time we expanded from straight UNSC vs Covenant to a big Herectic-UNSC-Covenant mashup. Im for it.

I dunno about a big mashup...I personally want to see it remain small. I want to see Heretics use different tactics; assymetrical warfare. Guerrilla stuff, hit the Covenant when they aren't expecting it, then pull out when things get heavy. They shouldn't be trying conventional stuff.

It wasn't a blow out.
Community votes may be a 'yes' or 'no' answer, but they're fundamentally different in the the results.

If this becomes a big 'mash-up' then some thing is being done wrong. This is not the schism, and if it becomes the schism my support for it will become out right opposition. This is a chance to make interesting rps for heretics and covie players in a small scale.

If I may I propose we have a four or five PC limit on heretics to prevent it from becoming the schism

I wouldn't mind the presence of a heretic faction, small-scale missions that perform a more unconventional form of roleplay than the two main-players, perhaps temper the overwhelming spacial superiority of the Covenant over the UNSC slightly by being a thorn in their sides, logistically speaking.
