Starting at Level 20, a Villain can begin the process of becoming a Rogue. A Rogue can then work to become a Hero. A Rogue will have villain-content mission contacts and access to the villain version of the Ouroboros zone. However, Rogues may also move to Paragon City via Cooperative Zones or by using Submariner Janus's submarine. While in Paragon City, a Rogue can team with Heroes and Vigilantes to do hero-side content, visit Wentworths, use stores, and perform Radio missions and Safeguard missions. A Rogue may also start a hero Task Force as the leader. |

| Supergroups: If you switch sides, you are currently put “on hold” with your old SG. You don’t lose any of the stats associated with your character (Prestige earned, join date, and the like), but you will not be able to join an additional one. SG’s are not going to be made cross-faction. If you have business you need to deal with your current SG before you switch, get it done before hand. This needs to be made crystal clear in game, and we are working to do just that. |

From lvl 1 if you like AE you can all go to Rikti War Zone and team up there.
ITF (from lvl 35) in Cimerora can be played by both sides also LGTF (from 45) in RWZ.
Since this is the first time they would be playing the game I'd like to try to give them a normal, non-AE/plvl way to go. After some experience if they decide to do it it's on them.
Oh wait stupid question do they have Going Rogue?

As je_saist said the best option is to make all of the character either Rogues (if they want to be villains) or vigilantes (if they want to be heroes). That way they can all come to the same zone and do missions together. There are two problems with that, however. First SGs are side specific so while a villain can be a member of a hero SG (by joining as a hero and then switching sides) they don't get any of the benefits of belonging to the SG (no base access, can't enter supergroup mode) which kinda limits the point.|

The other downside is that they cannot switch to Rogue/Vigilante alignments until they reach level 20. My recommendation there would be to have them all start in Pretoria, that way they can play whatever At they want and all play together until level 20. At that point they will need to select an alignment (hero or villain) which will split them up for a minimum of two days until they run the tip missions to change to Rogue/Vigilante.
No they don't have Going Rogue but when Freedom comes out I thought everyone was getting access to it?

Yes, all subscribers will have access ot it. If they are planning to get free accounts then they will still need to buy it.

Ah so your talking about doing this after i21 goes live. Well after that all at's will be able to play together from lvl 1 on either side by going through the new tutorial and doing the appropriate tasks. If everyone chooses hero side they will be able to join your sg.
