War
While Omega prefers to netgain peacefully, Omegans will defend their allies and have strongly defended themselves when it comes down to it. Omegans are notably tenacious fighters, and the alliance enjoys a high activity rate in war. With its dedicated membership, high skill level, and many years of experience, the alliance has achieved many impressive war victories.

History
Background
The Omega was formed in fall 1998 as a group of elite non-cheating netgainers by Mr. Niphty and Castejon. Many people mark the game with Pre-Omega and Post-Omega, in that before The Omega came, tags did not exist. The Omega was bound to make great change and they did with a strong anti-cheating stance. After a split between Mr. Niphty and Castejon, Mr. Niphty led the Omega and The Omega found itself at war with RoCK. Quickly humbled, Jer Bu stepped up to lead the Omega and befriended RoCK and joined the Rockfamily. Jer Bu soon stepped down and leadership of the Omega was turned over to a trio of Tafkas, Josie and Ench.
Later on, they would come to fight RoCK in wars, as they stood by the alliance Moral Decay whom they had allied with. This began a long term friendship that lasts to this day. Early in The Omega's history, during the Tiger reset, the Survival of the Fittest SoF broke off from The Omega. At this point Tafkas retired from the Omega and leadership was in the hands of Josie and Ench.
This break with SoF resulted in tension between the two alliances, but they later became friends and allies. Omega was decidedly a netgaining alliance, yet its early years were beset with a seemingly endless succession of wars. She was destined to be a netgaining alliance, however, and eventually took her proper place at that table.
The Omega's Migration to the Earth Council Server
Shortly after Earth Council came into existance, The Omega made the painful choice to move to the new server and to escape the cheaters that had long ruined the Alliance Server and very nearly brought The Omega to its knees. The move was intended to give a new start in a cleaner environment.
The Omega's Impact on Other Servers
Molson founded The Silver Omega on the Limited Server of Earth:2025. Omegans and non-Omegans from the alliance server alike played there for a number of years.
