Post this to Forum message boards about gaming to draw new blood to Allegiance:

In all my years of gaming, no real-time strategy or first person shooter has kept me coming back like Allegiance. No other game blends fast-paced online multiplayer combat with strategy elements so perfectly. It is visceral, fast paced and challenging.

Allegiance combines the resource and economy elements of RTS games with the situational tactics of a first person space combat sim unlike any game you’ve ever played. Every unit is piloted by a real person, making individual skill, tactics, and timing critical to success. Each team’s commander must exhibit both superior tactical and leadership skills to get the best pilots to fly for them.

You as commander give tactical information to your team from a 3D top-down view, using their ships to scout the map, find wormholes to other sectors, detect enemy miners and relay back information on enemy movements. With this tactical view, commanders can plan out bombing runs, stealth missions, and setting up coordinated attacks across sectors of the map.

Pilots fly in a first person view, from high velocity dogfighting in fighter and interceptor craft, to covertly sneaking behind enemy lines in stealth and scout craft to gather intel or harass the enemy operations. To win the game players will have to come together on coordinated strikes to destroy or capture enemy bases. Situational awareness is key, and the learning curve is steep, but the gameplay is addictive.

Microsoft’s MSN Gaming Zone shut down allegiance along with their other pay to play games in 2004. The community developed in-house mod tools and after significant campaigning convinced Microsoft to open source the game. Since then the playerbase created a development community, enhanced the graphics, created new mods, and started hosting their own game servers, developed long-term tournament play called Allegiance Wars, and implemented many bugfixes to refine the game.

A video says more than I ever can, so check out the gameplay video on Youtube: https://www.youtube.com/watch?list=PLB5 ... cRmSt7Q_LA

Who has done this? Who will do this?

Allegiance needs players and it needs your help to get them.

I have and will do these things. But people must remember that when posting to forums (especially ones that have paid ads), you may get you're post deleted or worse, you might get banned for promoting against the rules of the forum. Always check those first.

I agree with Metz. Put the new default keymap in the new installer. Tutorial doesn't work for the majority of people anyway...

This is great .. I had all but forgotten about freeallege.org . Glad i discoverd it again. I am all for seeing this game revived once again. i play other mordern games but none of them match allege in the rts and fps combo and with the cheer numbers that can be involved. I am glad to see development going on as well. I will do all i can to promote this game. Only which i knew programming. I will be here till the very end..... i hope that is a long long very long way off. Cmon guys the gaming world needs Allegiance.
