Factions

There are three factions a user can choose from on each server. Once the selection has been made it cannot be changed. The faction choice is an important decision as it will effect what structures and troops they will be able to produce. Alliances will need a good mixture of each tribe if they wish to be successful.
The three factions available are:
1) Pirates: An offensive faction for the more active player. The best infantry in the game but at the cost of limited defensive units. Cheap and quick infantry build times make up for the lack of defensive units. Good for raiding but they are poor defenders.
2) Merchants: A defensive faction more for a passive style of play. They have the best defensive units and the quickest ships. With their speed and defensive capabilities they are extremely useful to reach friends in need, but they aren't good for attacking.
3) Imperialists: The balanced faction. A good mix of attacking and defensive units. Great for a solo player with limited allies needing to stand alone.
