i hope after the fall of earth the remainder of the fleet of the allaince should be in chaos, with various admirals vying for leadership and shepard should "unite" them or atleast try to like he/she is with rest of the species.


I also hope we get a little more insight on the navies of the galaxy and control on how they attack and choosing what to defend or not defend.
 

yay or nay on this?

I think all of the humans are going to follow Shepard into battle...

...so nay.

[EternalPink]

I'd say nay since the systems alliance parliment is based in the arcturus system from what i remember reading so while the military and political leadership of earth itself are most likely all dead there mirrors in the systems alliance military/political heads would still be around to run the war

I like this idea. My Shepard would unite humanity, and begin construction on a Golden Throne, from which he would rule the Imperium.

My Shepard would collect skulls.  Blood for the Blood God.

We can assume that the Alliance leadership would follow a charismatic or powerful leader, for example Anderson or Hackett.

They've already entrusted Hackett to make representations on behalf of humanity to the Council, for example. That indicates he has a fair degree of influence with the Alliance brass.

That being said, it would be nifty if a sub-group of Alliance officers attempted something dastardly like a deal with Cerberus or the Reapers. I'd love to explore some of the internal politics of humanity, given that we've largely been out in Council space for two games now.

I thought the devs mentioned about Shepard not going to be supreme galactic force commander, but his present inspire people to unite and fight, well remarkable influenced on most organizations.

As said, Alliance command isn't on Earth. The chain of command will remain intact as will the Alliance government even if Earth is completely flattened. Insubordination, dereliction and betrayal would be capital offenses just as they would have been before the war.

Nobody's going to try anything. You don't get to a military rank like that, survive the apocalypse and then proceed to start a mutiny while your government is still running.

Looks like an Roman Civil War to me.
.
But more on topic. I don't think it would work. The whole alliance has a major common enemy... any difference they have they will put on the side untill the reaper treat is over... it would be a cool idea for after the war though.

Oh. So like a second Cerberus faction.

Isn't the only way into our solar system by going through the Arcturus Relay into the Charon Relay? So wouldn't the Reapers have mowed through Arcturus Station before moving onto Earth? I don't really see the fleet at Arcturus just standing by while the Reaper fleet moves past them onto Earth; that's what they're there for, to protect Earth before they can even get close to our solar system. If that's the case, the Alliance military might very well be in disarray and chaos if both Arcturus Station and Earth are under attack and/or destroyed.

The Mass Effect wiki says using conventional FTL drives approximately 12 light years per day is possible.

Arcturus is also only 36 light years from Earth. 

So it's possible (especially given advanced tech) to 'bypass' Arcturus by arriving at Earth through FTL travel. Especially when we consider that the huge eezo cores and power levels of the Reapers may allow FTL speeds much greater than 12 light years a day. (" In general, the larger the drive, the longer the ship can run at FTL.")

Pfft. Neither of you have it right. Shepard will, canonicly, acend to deamonhood and spread pestilence and plauge, and rust and decay throught everyting respebling reaper. Then he will chill on earth for a while killing millions with his aura.

Alliance and the council species would already be alerted and have undeniable proof of the reapers if they'd attacked other alliance installations before earth so for the story to make sense i think the reapers will have to have arrived at earth via unexpected means without starting the war else where though i might be reading it wrong and its not a surprise attack
