Independent Imperials/Players

I don't know about you guys, but me personally with the Tamriel One Update wish Imperials or Players in general, could choose to not have a main alliance, or just join one later. This could either mean in Cyrodiil you can attack anyone and they can attack you, or you can't attack anyone and they can't attack you. This I feel would fit the Imperials mostly. Expanding quest possibilities in Cyrodiil, with having the ability to not be loyal to an alliance, seems like a fun concept to me. I don't mind if it's a free for all or you're just simply protected, but i think it would be a nifty little option to have.

interesting, I've always looked at the Alliance wars as a waste of time, 3 blind mice on a wheel

you could get all crazy and group people to a set guild, like only those loyal to the thieves guild, fighters, mages, undaunted etc

sounds like effort

Oh man I would love to have no alliance in Cyrodiil and just jump on literally any person I see, that would be amazing. That is such a stella idea!

Damn now you've got my imagination going. What if there was a "rouge" team (Imperials that escaped the IC?) that couldn't place siege, so they could only cap resources/towns or a keep only if another alliance sieges it first?

Either way, if there was the possibility to be alliance-less I feel it would attract a lot of players, potentially too many, but with the disincentive of no leader boards or end of campaign rewards it could balance out nicely.

3 blind mice? More like 3 dragons each eating the tail of the one in front. Look at the ESO icon. That's the Alliance war.

Surely then you would have 4 factions. EP, AD, DC and Imps.

Well, I said, free for all, or none at all. That means if you have no faction you can be killed by anyone, or you can't attack anyone and can't be attacked, therefore no faction.

I would personally love a mercenary faction thats hired by the imperials to make up for the fact that their armies are kinda scattered and broken, fighting all 3 factions and can only capture the emp keeps

Initially before Beta began, I had hoped Imperials would be one of the 3 factions and be fighting for their homeland! Yet, they were just cheaply thrown under the rug as somehow wanting to join one of their enemy factions. I'd have paid big bucks for a 4th Imperial faction.

I don't see any practical benefits to a 4th faction other than novelty. However, I would love to see a guild-based free for all campaign.

I'm not suggesting a 4th faction. I'm suggesting people play Solo, no need to be on an alliance. Be that a free for all for them or they can't be attacked at all. I just find the option a fun one, especially for those that just wanna quest in Cyrodiil.
