Overview

A tiny political faction founded by OS/2-tan in the mid 90's and originally meant to challenge the legality of several of Microsoft's business practices. But after further funding cuts, scorn and ridicule by her parent company destroyed any chance of her faction gaining mainstream credibility, she was forced to take it underground and fund it entirely out-of-pocket. As her desperation and anger for the continuous injustice grew, so did the faction's slide towards the use of guerrilla tactics.

Due in part to its low recognition and her notoriously bitter temperament, she's only succeeded in hiring four other members (plus a die-hard fan that she can't seem to shake off). Since these loyal followers possess a string of quirks of their own, and have very questionable combat experience, the once proud A$C is now often derided as a ragtag group of bitter old women (or hags, in less courteous circles). They may get away with petty sabotage or a 1-on-5 ambush, but have a humiliating track record of regularly botching ambitious and often not-so-ambitious attacks.

Even as financial woes grow more and more merciless, OS/2 stubbornly refuses to give up on the A$C and sees no end in sight (short of her own demise).

History

After suffering defeat against the Windows Family champion 95-tan during the OS Wars, seeing the Windows-tans gain great popularity and herself getting singled out as an enemy, OS/2-tan gained a bloodthirsty vendetta against the Windows Family. Her only friend at the time, RISC OS-tan suggested the idea of a protest club as a means to get OS/2-tan busy and productive.

RISC OS-tan had in mind petitioning to challenge the Windows Family's near-monopoly legally and peacefully. But motivated by spite, OS/2-tan misinterpreted that to mean forming a radical underground resistance group- the Anti$oft Coalition as it's known as today.


OSC Notes

Each member individually has a great amount of potential and capability but the Anti$oft Coalition fails miserably as a faction because although the members are all friends, they're not truly united. OS/2-tan and Visi On-tan (to an extent) are the only ones with a vendetta and drive to carry out any action against the Windows-tans-- everyone else though is either there to have fun or look after OS/2-tan for the most part. While each member is good at defending their comrades, offense just isn't their specialty.

If there is one good thing that comes out of all of this is that OS/2-tan has some friends and being in their small niche group, they can know one another better.
