Overview

The Silver Sun Republic is an RP-PvP community that has a long and distinguished history serving as the core element of many larger alliances and nations across several different MMOs including Darkfall Online, Age of Conan, Shadowbane, Mortal Online and Planetside.

The purpose of our guild is to provide immersion as it enhances gameplay and not to hold ourselves back by overbearing structures or processes.

We leverage a lot of US Military experience through our membership base and our working partnership with MilitaryGamers.com (community of current and former US Military).

Structure



The Republic is broken up into several Ministries; The Ministry of War exists as the military staff who plan, train and execute military operations; The Ministry of State handles internal matters of government, justice, defense and mentorship of new members; The Executive Ministry handles external matters of government, diplomacy, heraldry, registration of arms and administration of forums and meetings.

Citizens of the Republic also have the opportunity to start or join their own Great Houses that further refine the gameplay or style of a given player. Each greater Noble of the Republic has their own Great House to which others may pledge their loyalty. Other groups may enter the Republic as a House or Great House and retain their own identity.



The social structure of the Republic matches up with our organization and the guild system in Life is Feudal. Those of the landed nobility derive their authority and autonomy through feudal agreements. The non-landed Grandi class may be appointed as governors and mayors on behalf of the feudal lords upon whose lands they govern.



The Military is broken down into the professional military and the militia with everyone contributing in some way to the fight and the community as a whole.



Together with MilitaryGamers.com we've developed Joint Task Force Viper which seeks to leverage the real world military experience between our two communities. It forms the basis for our involvement in PvP and the civil government structure that supports our military efforts. The focus on PvP and the military element lends itself to streamline the civil structure to ensure that we are effective and flexible enough to respond to any emerging threats.

Past Victories

Silver Sun Republic has developed and contributed to many high profile alliances and nations most notably the Kingdom of Hyperion in which we provided the early Command and Control elements to truly dominate the PvP landscape. Our core group was forced into hiatus due to RL military commitments and Hyperion began to dwindle. Our new integration with MilitaryGamers.com will help us employ even more forces on par with our principles of maneuver warfare and flexible control concepts.

In Planetside 2 we've been able to field highly capable forces integrating air and ground assets to provide truly game changing effects. As we develop our own systems and tactics in cooperation with MG we hope to achieve even more impact in the field.

SSR and MilitaryGamers will be working together in a kingdom-esque setup.

SSR was one of the first to implement and use battle formations in online gaming to great effect. We look forward to figure out how to use them in LiF.

[Demiwar]

Silver Sun Republic is a great group of awesome people. Come join the fun and become part of the gaming family!

[Arrakis]

Good to see friends of MilitaryGamers I wish you the best here.

[Thokan]

Oooooh, Age of Conan! Did you play on Cimmeria?

[Krevente]

Yes sir, we did play on Cimmeria. Helped set up the Hyborian Accord with the RP community and ended up getting involved in a whole lot of PvP.

[Thokan]

Yes sir, we did play on Cimmeria. Helped set up the Hyborian Accord with the RP community and ended up getting involved in a whole lot of PvP.

That is indeed awesomely cool. Such a good game.

I myself were in Imperium. Proconsul.

[Krevente]

Very cool, had some great interactions with Imperium.

We're looking forward to getting as involved as we can with the wider community and build up the game in whatever way we can contribute.

We're actually working on our own ARMA III Mod right now. We've taken our background as a guild and put it into a modern setting. Should be interesting!

[Krevente]

Announced our RP "community" project here: silver-sun-republic-presents-lifeisroleplay-com-t567/

"Life is Roleplay" has a catchy feel to it

We'll have to make T-Shirts, lol.

I also need to get SSR to push out our new, fancy org chart and graphics. Main post needs some love.

[Azerath]

Good day players of LiF!

I long to see the banners of the Republic draped from the keeps of conquered nations, the hearts and minds of the citizens in chorus with our own, and the prayers of the faithful lifted towards our gods.

Should be fun.

[JoeCold]

Hi all, Max checking in. I look forward being a part of the SSR's trademark community presence in LiF, both in world and in forum. Also look forward to doing this with new faces in this brave new world.

[Radison]

Welcome everyone, good to see you make it out here. I too look forward to seeing our banners in-game.

[Rohaan]

I have arrived with a sharpened blade. Fore House McDougal and House Medici shall not fall before all the blood in my body has spilled on the lands of my father.

[Kalmorte]

This game looks like the holy grail for Silver Sun Republic. I can't wait until we can get our hands on it!

[AericMorte]

Our guild has a wide variety of personalities and play styles, but LiF looks to have something for everyone. Can't wait!!

[Dante_Goujian]

Checking in.

[Hawks]

I've been part of this guild for a few years now and i'm proud to be a member.

[Azerath]

Do we have a head count on how many members of SSR are going to be playing?

I know we've got like ten who have signed in on these forums, but do we know how many more are going to play on launch?

[Krevente]

We're putting out the word this weekend to the rest of the old forums Mailing List. I know every time I do that we draw in a good 20 or so old members since the initial wipe and restart.

I also have the old Hyperion forums mailing list that I use probably about once a year to make announcements. I think I may have to risk the death threats and stupid comments I get in reply to let folks in on the game.

Silver Sun Republic and MG.com will be allied up for our own 'Realm,' but we also have Rohaan's crew from SWG and a few other enclaves of members that we need to draw back into the fold.

[Proximo]

Fancy meeting you here. Be sure to brush up on your skills, if your crew is as good as they were in Chivalry you might have my pity.

Just kidding of course .

[Krevente]

You so funny, Prox!

Glad to see you lurking 'round these parts. Don't be a stranger.

[AericMorte]

Yeah Prox, when you get bored, feel free to come play with us!

[Krevente]

We're back to scheduling and drilling formations again. Radison and I spent some time last night vetting out the details of our older doctrine and updating it to reflect a new-ish system.

This weekend we're going to focus on rolling some of the Joint Task Force Viper doctrine and start employing some of the changes.

[Krevente]

Putting the final touches on our own Persistent World mod server for Mount and Blade: Warband that we plan to host our training on until Life is Feudal is available to the masses. After some internal testing/tweaking we'll be opening it up to the wider community.

Same goes for our ARMA III RPG Mod.

Both feature SSR and MilitaryGamers.com lore/info for those interested in learning more about both groups.

I hate walls o' text and forum posts. I'd rather immerse in what we're all about!

[Serith78]

Checking in, looks like a really interesting game.

[Krevente]

Thanks to AericMorte for these bad ass sigs!

[Azerath]

They are pretty great.

[Proximo]

Fairly sexy sigs, make me one for these forums as a show of good faith betwixt clans .

Yes betwixt is a real word, google it.

EDIT: Oh btw we might have a handful of guys who would hop on your Persistent world server. In advance I should probably let you know that we play looking for a fight and have on many occasions sacked castles full of rpers to steal there hordes of gold and been frowned at quite harshly by the community.

RPing norse raiders so fun.

[Krevente]

Hence the flavor of our server. It's not one of those random RP whiny servers. I don't have the time nor the patience to admin a bunch of 12 year olds.

There's a central city in which all the commerce and economy is focused from resources gathered out in the world. You can commit to economic warfare against each faction since funds are raised from export nodes, so just target how the other faction makes their money. It is in the interest of the factions to defend their natural resources in order to raise money for their faction without doing all the crafting constantly. Should make for some better overall strategy.

The goal is to create reasons for people to fight in a chaotic world.

Besides, you're forgetting who provided the majority of the military prowess for Hyperion to conquer half the world along with Anvil Society P

EDIT: Oh yeah, btw, our sig maker is out to sea, no really. He's on a Bo-at with the Navy at the moment, but should be back in March

[Seppuku]

I first met SSR when they sacked my city on Darkfall. I ended up joining them for another Sandbox MMO, and have had a great time with this group. Can't wait for a new realistic sandbox to utilize our unique combat formations and playstyles.
