Pentastar Alignment
Post a comment
Description
The third in our series of factional intro videos by Jinzor, with the beta underway. This time, the insignia for the Pentastar Alignment.
Wow that's nice. Great job.
penta, pentastar would suggest 5 ends to the star, not 10? Might just be me crazy, but I'm pretty sure I know that penta is 5. Looks pretty amazing though, how do you intent to use them ingame?

It's a canon logo...
We're not exactly the right people to complain to in that respect.
If I may speak for Geroenimo, it is not so much a complainant. More of an inqury on an unknown subject conflicting with prior knowledge. It seems quit evident that he knows nothing about Pentastar Alignment when he commented and was just trying to bring up what he felt to be a mistake. No wrong done in raising a question, is there?
Actually that still falls under the category of complaint; he was suggesting there was a mistake in the logo, and we corrected him.
As Enceladus said, this is a well-established, canon insignia. It shows up in virtually every single image in any book or other reference material talking about the Pentastar Alignment. It's impossible to look up any information in the Pentastar Alignment without seeing this image at least 4 times.
Yes, Penta means 5. So Pentastar Alignment is basically the 5 Star Alignment, if you want to be that blunt about it. Why does the logo have 10 points for something implying 5? I'm not sure, I don't know anything about this group. But in the galaxy far far away, our logic doesn't really matter, does it?
Well even the name implies five stars. Nothing to do with how many points are on the star. Even then, since when does an insignia like that have to directly reflect the name? The Galactic Empire's logo is neither a galaxy nor an Empire, and Nike's logo is a checkmark.
I get your point, like our said the logic doesnt really matter, and yes not all factions have a visually connected logo like Eoth, for example. And Nike's logo is wing, refering to the Roman God Nike. Similar to Hermes, the messanger god.
Looks awesome are you guys going to do a New Republic one? :).
Nice video you did, but just out of curiosity, does anyone know the music played in this video?
I'm the one who made this, and now that I finally look at this video on ModDB, I realise that somebody messed up the frame conversion rate uploading it here (hence why it looks like it's lagging). What the hell?
What's the music????
