The Empire

The Empire began life at the very end of round one and born out of the cluster alliance The 6th Empire. It was started by Bartok of Dragonrealm in an attempt to recruit as much of T6E as possible before the new round bagan.

It started Round 2 as a large alliance with membership ranging from around 200 - 300 members with many more wishing to join. The decision was taken to begin limiting numbers.

Leadership of the alliance was never down to one person, Bartok, Darth Morbus and Seqotia all formed the leadership. TE pioneered the Wing and Fleet system - 100 planets to a Wing and 10 to each fleet. Each would operate seperately of each other and come together as required to fight off our enemies.

Not long into the round a war bagan with Fury. What triggered it is uncertain but it was decisive. TE lost.

TE had the potential to be a great alliance but after the war TE was unable to rebuild suffieciently. Many of our better member planets left to join VtS and went on to become great players.

TE continued as an alliance until around the rounds of 5 or 6 before finally fading away into Planetarions history books.
