The Exile Lore

[Teerin]

First, I'm a tad bit confused. The topic said "asking" but there were no questions posed. Oh well ...

I'm pointing out that, even though there was no Exile faction around, it was safe to assume that Exiles were there, in Bretonia, helping BAF in protection of their soil - all in lore, taken into account into the lore of Exiles that we are currently shaping.

Sure? I don't see a problem with this, however the Exiles have always had retaking control over Kusari as their main goal. Yeah, they can have initially helped out, as per the treaty that was signed. Yet with the huge influx of GRN's forces into Leeds (4.86), the Imperial Exiles would have been definitely more concerned with getting themselves out of that system mostly unscathed, once Bretonia's control over the system faltered.

I'm not sure why this thread even needed to be posted if it's just the result of a squabble on Skype. The PvP prowess of specific factions has never had an impact on the storyline and isn't relevant to lore or dev work.

That's the exclusive domain of the story lead, who will generally do their best to advance things with an eye to lore development that facilitates good gameplay. Storylines dictated exclusively by in-game representation are generally a bad thing in environments with limited population like this one.

Otherwise Rheinland would be occupying New York; anti-Gallic gank forces would be razing Il de France; Junkers would be the most powerful economic force the universe. You get the picture.

Also, Jammi is right about this

PS: There are actually three storyline devs
