I have been listening to the talks about the super groups and how going rogue will effect them and it got me thinking. With the addition of the ability to have a villain go good and a hero able to go bad it would allow for a new kind of supergroup or villain group given the alignment changes why not add the ability for a supergroup or villain group to set the alignment they wish to be considered as. We could have more oriented supergroups like say you have a group of vigilantes it could be a mix of a range in the game to allow for those that wish to be the way they see their characters to exist more freely. And allow for a use of the different shades of grey we see coming.
From a character stand point it allows for more freedom for I am sure that some people have made characters that dont really fit the definition of a true hero or a true villain. It is one of the reason many of the people are so stoked about what going rogue brings to the table.
So why not set up and alignment system for super and villain groups to allow for the range that has been set up for characters. I mean there is also the ability to monitor the ethics of a super group and if the members average alignment drops towards villan side they could be considered a vigilante group or a villain group becoming a rogue group if the overall average for the alignment of the characters goes towards a hero.
It would be like the justice league doing evil and becoming more like the legion of doom. Or alpha flight or the x men turning to evil or being considered evil by the masses.
I am sure the major issue with the system would be the group transporter system as to what zones would be allowed to be traveled in by a character. So why not have the ability to have all the portals but let the character alignment decide if you can enter a zone used to be that you couldnt get in to some zones due to level but didnt mean your super group or villan group couldnt have the portal set up in the base just setting them up so that they can only access the places there alignment allows. Doesnt mean you cant have the teleporters in your base just means that you have to be a certain flavor of hero or villain to use them.

I like the way you think--very nice idea.
Feel free to try out my AE mission arc, # 473452: Praetorian Redemption

I like that idea... I wish they'd make SGs global. Then you wouldn't have to worry about it.
