' Wrote:I don't get the whole... funky egyptian thing...Wasn't the order started by some dude from.... the Milky Way?
liberty decided to use egyptian dieties as the codenames for their shipbuilding projects in alaska - the osiris reconnaissance battleship and the anubis advanced strike fighter. These were stolen by Orillion when he broke off from liberty in an attempt to save it from the impending nomad threat, and ever since then the order's shiplines have used those names.
Funny thing is, despite all the egyptian themes for ships, stations, etc... the home planet is toledo, named after a city in spain...
I think the freelancer devs failed their geography/history classes =P
