Imperator Interview, Part Two

RPG Vault has released the second installment to their interview with Mythic's Matt Firor and Colin Hicks about their upcoming sci-fi MMORPG, Imperator. Check it out:
Q: How about longer-term organizations? How will they work, and what will distinguish this aspect of Imperator?

A: Roman society contained many groups and factions, and we're planning on recreating this feel with plenty of in-game player "guild" features. There will also be NPC Roman faction groups that are rivals for power in the Republic - although all are obviously focused on winning the war - that players will be able to align themselves with.
