faction symbols Support Apolyton, buy Civilization: The Boardgame

Just for the heck of it...what faction's logo do you think is the coolest? I mean which one fits the faction rather well. I hate to admit it since she's a real pain, but Miriam's fits the believers perfectly. The sharp points on the cross and all...and is that an "Omega" symbol around it?

Next I'd have to say the pirates. I've always imagined that the object in the center was some sort of chiron starfish. Maybe chosen because even if you cut it in half both halfs grow into another whole or something.

Of course I like the UoP's logo, but thats because the UoP is my favorite faction.

The ones I don't totally get are the Spartans and the hive. Perhaps someone can explain what the symbols mean to me.

Put an end to popups!

Just wanted to add that I didn't mean to snub any faction...could only fit ten choices in the poll. (I wouldn't have included the Aliens though)

Also I think Dee's logo is perfect for the Tree huggers.

The hive is a play on the Ying-Yang symbol

The Spartan symbol is interesting to me. It's simple and direct, like the Spartans themselves.

The Drones have another good symbol. Does anyone know what it means?


Here they are.

The Drones: Broken chains, ie: freedom from slavery.

PS I like the Spartans. Very much like an old table-top wargame cardboard piece.

D4, the Pirates' symbol has a compass rose, not a starfish. Although, who knows what a Planet starfish might look like?
