As I said last night, I've been thinking about starting a new regular team but too lazy to post something. Here is two ideas i had in my head.
1- Superteam: You know people running fire/rad, fire/kin or other kind of super teams. I personally don't like that same AT/set teams. What makes this game is versality between team builds. So this Superteam will consist at least one of the 5 basic ATs (Blaster, Controller, Defender, Scrapper and Tanker) other 3 is free for others to fill when first 5 settled. Think this as challanging Freedom Phalanx. 
2- Medieval Team: On this team science and technology origins left out. Some sets as well, like Devices. This team idea originates from time travelling ancient society where magic and magical creatures were a part of everyday life. Actually if your hero is a mutant it is considered as a magical creature or human/<enter magical creature here; like dragons, faires or minatours> hybrids.
I totally agree with mixing ATs and powersets. I'm fond of ancient/medieval/retro themes. As for suggestions, I haven't come up with anything too complex yet:
- I've been trying to come out with something related to the origins of powers. We would be like an ancient entity - the very first heroes who would end up being the only true heroes after the expansion 'going rogue'. This goes a bit in the line of Knightly's superteam: at least 1 representant of each AT.
- Tribal theme: shamans, herbalists, hunters and fighters. 1 2 3

I Like both Tribal and Medieval.
With the Magic pack still somewhat fresh, perhaps Magicians/Shaman/Enchantresses?
I'd be interested in joining, by the by :P
I've love to have a character on defiant something like this regular teaming would definitly help that. I think i may have some characters premade that would fall into the bracket failing that i'm easy when it comes to making characters (plenty of space anyway to make a new one 
@kindeller if you have any developments and i'll keep an eye on this thread
Tribal sounds fun. Spring another idea into my mind... A time traveling SG. Consists several regular teams in different concepts: Medieval, Tribal and Futuristic (like androids, hi-tech armor wearing heroes, alien races and mutants, sans magic origin). Every team designates a week night or two so people who wants to join more than one team can join both, or people who are already a part of a regular team can join one of the teams which doesn't clash with his/her ongoing team.
If this come reality and all teams can have full teams we can do in SG contests, like more successfull Statesman TF run (less time and less deaths maybe) or MS raid or Hami Raid.
For your information, i have my friday and saturday nights full with Infernal Justice and Flying Circus teams but available other nights.
Sounds good to me. We do need to sort the origins and powerset restrictions for each group. If everyone else agrees with Knightly's idea that is.

It's a nice idea. I just worry about getting the numbers to run a plurality of themes. I thought settling on one was going to be hard enough for you F_F :P
I wouldn't mind giving this a go, depending on times and which theme is when. I only fear getting tied to a set play time can be disheartening after a while
"Well, they found my diary today.
They were appropriately appalled
at the discovery of the eight victims
They're now putting it all together.
Women wrapped in silk
with one leg missing
Eight legs, one body, silk,
spider, brilliant!"
If there's space I might be up for this too depending on Times & other details.
Someone make up some concrete details 
*Just deleted half of Defiant characters to make room for some characters for this idea* 
Details please!
So, following Knightly's Idea...Maybe 3 teams?
In a sort of Chrono Trigger esque timeline: perhaps:
Prehistoric- Tech and Science are forbidden, as are some powersets. Sensible dress applies for romping around in almost nothing smashing things for food!
Medieval- Tech and Science are forbidden. Religious Zealots trying to reach the Holy Land!
Futuristic- Magic is forbidden. Andriods/Cyborgs/Robots- Very Cyberpunk, very snazzy and sleek.
I'd roll once in each, tbh :P
I want to be a dark sorcerer/ess (cause I want a DM defender and to play with the magic pack) so I'd guess that would put me in Medieval one, if it happens on a day that's good for me.
Although I have also got a Fire/Elec blaster called iCandie that needs playing at some point, dont think I really got her off the mark at all
"Well, they found my diary today.

I would be up for this too depending on Times & other details. Tuesdays are already taken up with Infernal Justice and Friday I run a Shadowrun game.
I can put together a character idea for all the groups to!
Oh yeah, when I'm out. I'm out friday and saturday evenings and normally go out around lunch time on a sunday but not for long

Nice to see many people are interested in this idea.
If we can set times it will be better for people to decide if they can join their desired teams or not. So my request is: can everyone post their most desired team, AT/Sets and free times to play? Then we can set a certain day of week which is suitable for everyone. Like my following example:
Medieval Team; Controller (Mind/FF or Empath depending on team need), Every evening 19:00 BST except Fridays and Saturdays.
PS: Also i will ask some friends in game and see if they will interest in this SG idea.
Have Fun,
K
I'd be most interested in Medieval and Prehistoric
For Medieval, an Ice/* Tank or Ice(or Earth)/* Troller
For Prehistoric, a Claws/SR Scrapper
Free every evening except Sundays. Other commitments may arise, but Sundays are a definite no-go
I'm sure I'd be able create a toon for any occasion. The kicker for me will be the Start Time as I've a 2 year old, so generally I wouldn't get on until 20:30 BST / GMT once she's asleep usually. I could log on at 8 though so you know numbers and it could be a case of "start without me and I'll catch up" as I put her to bed. If people are fine with that so am I. Any weekday is good for me, weekends during the day are out.
For Medieval I'd be interested in a Shield/Mace Tank. I've got a lowbie Shield/Fire but haven't played him much and would be happy to reroll and go Shield/Mace instead. This would be my favourite option probably as a character to play.
Prehistoric maybe a Plant/Storm Druid type with a beard you could hide a badger in.
Cyberpunk anything really, I don't mind. Fairly easy to come up with a concept that would slot into the team well.
I can put together something for all the groups and am happy to fill any missing Alt/sets, maybe with Blaster as a preference as I only have one at the moment!
The only days i am not free at the moment are Tuesdays and Friday. Weekday it would need to be 7-8pm BST because of work
Let me add in case we don't have enough people to start teams:
Prehistoric: Inv/Mace(I hope this is the one which has bone as a weapon choice) Tanker
Cyberpunk maybe an alien race, a Mind or Fire/Sonic controller or Cold/Ice defender or Fire/EM tank.
For your time problem Carnifax, if we will decide to start earlier than 20:30, i can pact with you so you won't be left behind too much of the team.
Edit: Me and my stupid brain tried to fix it for people to understand last part.
My personal preference would be Medieval > Prehistoric > Futuristic.
I should be free around 19:00 to 22:00 BST weekdays (except tuesdays) and sundays after 18:00.
I also have no problem with pacts.

I'm pretty sure Mace does have a bone in it as a weapon. Pact is a good idea, if ye do start at 8 a half-hour isn't going to be too much of a hinderance, I can always catch up out of hours anyway if you'd prefer that to pacting, but I'm happy to be in a pact too if I amn't slowing you down too much
My 8:30 start times are the main reason I haven't applied for more themed teams in the past so I'd love to tag along this time around, especially if it means a new toon on Defiant. But if you guys want to start at 19:00 or 19:30 then I'd say go for it or with me as an occasional tag-along / filler later in the evening if you need it.
@Carnifax I would also be happy to pact with you. The way i see the "pact" part of CoC its so that someone does not fall behind.
I already have a couple of pacts running doing just that and with a regular team its hardly noticed if your partner can not make it one night.

This is also my preference.
In terms of times, 19:00-24:00 are about the most reliable I can offer.
The interest is lookin' pretty healthy
Elemental team?
With a costume to reflect the element chosen.
I'm looking forward to start a new themed group. What will be the theme? That's what I'm hoping we can discuss in here.
For those who've never been in a themed group before, this is a good chance for you to give it a try. There's something special about themed groups with a cool background, specific costumes and all that. It just makes it way more fun to play.
So, I'll be visiting this thread over the next few days and see if there's enough interest on this. Hopefully there will be some feedback and lots of ideas flowing so we can get to a consensus by the end of the week.
We also need to discuss the best time and days for us to gather up.
Let the discussion start!
EDIT:
- This is not a superteam, but we will eventually perform just as well
- We'll be playing on Defiant server
- We won't be farming/PLing (although we can do MA missions)
