I figured the Covenant split would be the Storm and the Arbiter's faction, since it sounds like the Rebellion mod is set when those two factions would be more prominent, what with the Forerunners coming out for their morning jog/genocide. And I think if the split for UNSC is ONI vs. FLEETCOM the differences should be rather minor. Since ONI's presence in the Halo game series is generally not a full-fledged navy in its own right, but just to provide new tools and a level or two where you go bail out some "eggheads." Like Sword Base.

In Rebellion, factions are split into two, so the two Covenant factions when we move to Rebellion will be the Covenant Separatists and the Covenant Loyalists. So to some effect, yes.

so for UNSC it be UNSC/Inserectionests for the covi's it be Elites/Sepertests (sorry for spelling)

I like insurrectionist idea they are similar yet more different, then oni vs fleetcom. Plus they have different ideas about the end game.

Unikraken's pointed out that other ideas are possible, nothing's definite yet.

On another note, I for one, enjoy the new marine.

Don't think so. We're thinking split the UNSC along ONI vs FLEETCOM. Not Insurrectionists. They weren't big enough to count as an actual faction. They'll pop up, mostly as planet militia defending uncolonized planets, but we don't have enough Innie ships nor information about them to make a proper faction. The covenant on the other hand works well, because Brutes vs Elites is a *mostly* fair match

Just to clarify I believe we all mean the huragoks or engineers not the hugonoks or engineers.

To be blunt, we may not have faction splits at all. I don't see the utility of having Innies as a faction and if you knew anything about them you wouldn't either. All their technology is subpar, they're heavily outnumbered by the UNSC. They're just not interesting as a fleet.

We are thinking about some research options that disable other paths once you choose one, which is finally possible in Rebellion.

SOGE does this with their titan research. Obviously, this specific example wont be used since the UNSC will always have Infinity as their titan and the covenant will have the assault carrier, BUT, the research for the SOGE titans does change your faction type.

So in rebellion can you have only one titan? Or can you multiple?

Ive never seen a mod with multiple titan types per faction. then again, ive only played 2 mods for rebellion. It could be hardcoding possibly.

[Unikraken]

I'm pretty sure Titans are single use.

[damn_tall_marine]

That would be just op if you could

[haseo yashimora]

I'm pretty sure Titans are single use.

id love to face the covi's soon, like a patch out so u can put covi AI enemies, idc if i cant play them yet id just like to face them!

Kind of a bummer only having one Assault Carrier.

Ive seen from SOGE also, that you can have multiple titans if its a certain ship in the mod. They have 12 different titans (2 for each of the 6 factions), and depending on the titan, you can have as little as a single one, to as many as 4. So it is definitely possible to increase the titan count. The question is, do we want to?
