    They're one of the more interesting groups in the setting, and they got a good amount of screen time in Outrage. I'd love to see them fleshed out more.

    It's gone even further with the new MO release, with entire Troop Types becoming sectorial only. So there is a precedent for pulling Hunduns and Longyas from Vanilla, although I am pretty confident it would upset plenty of people, and doesn't make WBA any better than it currently is.

    That was already done with SEF also, Gwailos are SEF only.

    I think I agree with just about everything!

    I would add:
    A special Liang Kai with smoke just for White Banner.
    Ye Mao Lt.

    I would totally play this BTW

    I would like to advice against using contemporary politics in discussion.

    I like a lot of the WB ideas presented.

    Also I want Three Kingdom Recreations. Clearly they should give us a bike back as the great Lu Bu!

    Only if you want Lu Bu to turn traitor as soon as he sees the other side winning! (He was more famous for switching sides as well as being a pretty good warrior.)

    Guan Yu would probably be the best option, but he would definitely have to be a monster of a profile.

    He's literally a god in the Chinese pantheon. Combine Achilles fighting with Sun Tze command and you have Guan Yu.

    See, now I'm thinking of the SD Gundam 3 Kingdoms version of Lu Bu

    Not going to lie, the shady back-and-forth backroom dealing that lead to the Sinanju kind of fits perfectly for Lu Bu

    I really hope they could add more traditional Chinese design to a reworked ISS (since they basically need a rework now anyway), for they are the "traditional Chinese" part of Yu Jing and keep others like IA and WB a more modern military style. Combining these two styles Yu Jing will be a fantastic faction unique to Infinity and I think every one wants that.

    I agree. ISS is a police force and deal with the citizens of YJ on a daily basis. They set an example (intimidation) with the look as much as action. WB and IA don't need to impress aliens and snow.

    Lu Bu recreation on a Bike would be amazing, but he'd run off and join PanO like 2 weeks after hitting the frontlines because he saw a pretty Fusilier.

    Then he'd end up starting a revolt somewhere on Paradiso and making his own NA2 faction and it'd be a giant headache for everyone.

    ... Perfect.

    No, that’s the Union of Soviet Socialist Republics. Are you going to claim they weren’t socialist either?
    Yu Jing State Empire are a totalitarian socialist state. Suck it up; socialists aren’t the good guys, ever.

    As a capitalists.

    I’d rather not to find parallels in history.
    Yu Jing as a strange thing.

    https://aristeiathegame.com/blog/item/788-travel-guide-yu-jing

    Better read this. And look at modern China’s good aspects. There are lots of them.
    So, I can’t say, Yu Jing is an evil.
    I think, in our story PanO vs Yu Jing eternal rivalry is not “a fight good vs evil” at all.



    To talk about other moments, I have Lu Bu after Dynasty Warriors, but he is funny.

    I would describe them (and modern PRC) as more fascist, honestly. Socialism implies collective ownership of the means of production, which is definitely not the case in the modern-day PRC and doesn't seem to be the case in Yu Jing either.

    Fascism and socialism are not exclusive.
    @Hecaton, that doesn’t mean you’re wrong; I agree with you.
    Given @psychoticstorm using the red text though, I’m going to leave it here.
