Happy Birthday Legion
 

Today The Legion as a gaming community thrives in games like Anarchy Online and Star Wars Galaxies where legionnaires have build a solid reputation of being amongst the best.
They carry with them a legacy started 4 years ago, one that is based on loyalty towards the alliance we call home, strength and above all honor.

It is hard to believe that the small alliance founded by 7 people that long ago is still standing proud while it left those that tried to compete with us in its tracks.
As one of those original 7 it has been my privilege to have met so many devoted members who sacrificed their time for the greater good of the alliance, be it in the old planetarion alliance or one of our divisions.

To me Legion has always been more then just another alliance/guild, I think one of the old legionnaires way back when we still played planetarion said it best, "There is something in the walls, its hard to describe but being part of the Legion gives people that sense to belong to something greater." I believe this is our greatest strength and its amazing to see that the feeling has carried on to our divisions like AO Legion where most people werent even part of the original planetarion alliance.

Of course we have seen dark times and through our entire history we have seen enough drama to make a long lasting soap opra heh. But we survived, cut our losses and carried on.

The future of Legion looks bright with more great games to come where we will prove our worth, where the Legion Eagle will soar high.

Happy 4th birthday Legion, may there be many more!

Victuri te Salutant!

I DEMAND CAKE AT INCE !!!!!!1112233

Im proud we made it this far. Where as most of us seen the turbulent past of alliances which come and go, this one survived it all and grew to something bigger, something with more meaning, something where ppl nowadays want to be part of long after our origional goal of 1 game called PA.

Happy birthday legion

I hope there will be more years to come and more games in which we can rule but mostly have fun. I for one am sticking around as this is where i spent most of my online time and got to know cool ppl from all around the world. It kinda feels like 1 big family.

Cheers

Happy Birthday!


Wallpaper = best present ever!

congrats all

well this is quite the achievement!

Maybe we should make a channel for ex-members :)

depends, there are several ex-member that aren't really welcome anymore i guess, and those who still are can easily apply and join us again.

just my opinion ;)

Hip Hip Hurreaaaaaay

Dear Legion

I, even tho being one of the younger members in our community, think that my feelings towards you doesn’t differs much from your typical legionnaire.

Now, I have not been with you from the start, but I must have been 15’ish when I joined your ranks in planetarion, very much deserving it after, if I might so bold as to say so, a boring month of pure abuse in the care of your littlebrother, iliad. Of course, you all remember iliad as the newbies who fought the battles you couldn’t be arsed to fight, and perhaps that was exactly what we were, but I remember the feeling present there from the start. You were… something else, like, say, how glam rock was entirely different from the Beatles, but created with the same instruments; A guitar, drums, a bass, a few selected people and a small army ready to follow them.

Before I ended up with iliad, I had been a part of quite a few other alliances, and they all had what you had, even though they had none of that funky legion-feel. They had a irc channel, they had a decent site with a forum, they had plenty of members, they had power hungry admins, and, eh, etc. etc.. Just like you. But still, you were different. You somehow became a part of my life, perhaps it has something to do with the fact that I, amazingly enough, hooked up with iliad being 15’ish of age, and thus already sliding down the slippery slide of teenaging towards the rock hard bottom of adolescences.
Somewhere along that way, I think you catched us. The lot of us – When everything else was utterly serious, not working out and, not to mention, simply boring. Anyhow, we turned to you and your people for a hazy escape, a quick laugh, a piece of advice or entertainment (and by this I of course mean winning).

Surely it was the people about you that made you what you are today, but why those people choose to come together in you, hey, who can tell ? It’s probably some odd psychological stunt, I mean, you attract a certain kind of people who, mostly, simply just falls into place, like 100 clones of Norm from ‘Cheers’, in a oversized pub, everyone having their usual seat.

Anyway, I just wanted you to know that whatever magic that made us all end up here, hopefully will keep us here…. I remember that day when it was officially announced that you quit Planetarion, and I was afraid that that, as they say, would be that. Luckily, I was proven wrong.


“May the wind always be in your back,
and the sun upon your face,
and may the winds of destiny,
carry you aloft to dance amongst the stars”

eh

Please forgive my poorly written romantic mombo-jumbo, those 4 lines above from ‘Blow’ sums my original and now lost point up nicely.

Why?
They must be ex-members for a reason. Besides, we have the public channel.

Ace movie - saw it on sunday

sometimes you really scare me britneh :)

deep down he always stays a Goth :D
