The Forgotten Colonies was a kind-hearted team ran by Chino(Supreme overlord) with Belliaum(Councillor) and Llessur(Councillor). The "Council" was a group of people that ran the team, consisting of the afore mentioned, as well as Liquid Death and Grinsa, returned former councillors.
TFC was a good team, and strived help out players and teams when they could and strived not to make enemies, but rather make friends.
TFC is currently in recess following the realization that fixed assets (bases) could not be adequately protected against PvB attacks. Given the billions of credits and thousands of hours invested in bases, colonies and base gear it was decided to wait for the game to evolve so that our investment would be protected.
History-
The team was formed from the team "Colonial Defense Force", apparently it's Director, one Jon Shepherd (not to be confused with John Sheppard) went AWOL for a long period of time. One of the team's members; a player named Llessur saw that the team would die out with an inactive Director, he proposed that along with him and several other members of The Colonial Defense Force, they would leave and form their own team. In tribute to their heritage, the new team was called “The Forgotten Colonies ".The foundation members with Llessur were: Imanalien, Belliaum and The Man of an Idiot. From the simple team of four they took the old Colonial Defense Force's galaxy. Soon, with the players Aeonx, Jacrel, Admiral Hideki, and Power Player joined The Forgotten Colonies and after a few Universes the team began to flourish into what it is today.
The Forgotten Colonies were involved in wars with Imperium, Mercenaries and EPIC. The first two were considered draws. In the war with EPIC it’s considered that EPIC won the war, though, in reality, neither side "won". The war ended with TFC deciding to give up 2b credits and some other stuff to end the war, in the end no bases died, only players, it would've ended up as the stagnant Traders + Pants + LC vs. Death Mental war if the war was not ended. It is to be noted however that Death Mental was helping EPIC.
Because of harassment from Helro (Death Mental) TFC joined the USA (United Sonatian Alliance) with Light Commerce (LC) and Pantalones (Pants). The TFC galaxies were the frontline and TFC bore the brunt of the fighting. Over two unis we held off DM and its allies (Torch Wood and Nineth Sphere) but eventually collapsed and DM surged through destroying all of Pants and half of LCs' galaxies. We were out of the war and rebuilt.
In our rebuilding period next uni we had a border skirmish Nineth Sphere.
TFC is one of the oldest currently active teams. It had a brief lapse when most of the team joined Light Commerce but the main members rejoined TFC after a couple of uni's. There followed a war with LC which ended through mediation (Jey, of EF, said "stop fighting or else!" to both sides). After the war LC declined and became defunct within a uni.
In the same uni Strawberry Pancakes (SP) built a bridge four of galaxies from there area to TFC space with the apparent intention to BvB us.
They did.
Liquid Death's Galaxy was attacked and he gallantly led the defense. It was a weak galaxy with few planets. They laid their Uber siege kits and were supprised when we laid ours. It was a close fight but Silvermain led a counter-attack in his old battleship and turned the tide. Eventually all the SP kits were destroyed and SP routed. TFC then completed the victory by destroying and demolishing the bridge galaxies.
It is said that there is a curse on any team that wars TFC, they become defunct. It is a myth of course, but so far almost all teams that have warred TFC are no longer with us! I am sure Enkelin would say we bore them to death! :)
Recently TFC took Emperor and held Anatolia against all comers, including a combined assault of Strawberry Pancakes and Traders,(at the time regarded as the two most powerful teams in SS) . A Pirate team, the now defunct Jiggling Butt Gang participated in the same assault. A person of particular note in that hard fought battle was Shadow Blade, although it was a genuinely well co-ordinated team effort.
Well, that's TFC. To date, currently the No1 team in the rankings (but that seems to change daily). Our Core values have remained the same, and we are a team of base builders that loves to help people, and generally trys to keep out of trouble- although trouble seems to follow us. :)
