    Forest Owls really only existed for that train part of the game
    Avalanche only existed until you left Midgar....
    You were part of the Returners for the entire game, except right at first when she was controlled by the empire. After that point, you were part of the Returners... Locke and Edgar were both high inside the Returners... Terra just was undecided at that point. But literally you ARE the Returners.

    The Forest Owls are my favorite...they're just so darn cute! Though I think AVALANCHE was the most effective in all of the games I've played

    Wild Rose was the only one of those groups that actually accomplished what it set out to do without complications from the enemy-within-the-enemy.

    I'm going for the Rebels/Wild Rose from FFII if only cause they are the most consistent group in their respected games. As stated before, AVALANCHE falls apart after Midgard (technically, they're not a rebel group anyway), the Forest Owls basically break up after Sorceress Edea makes her appearance, To me, the Returners fall apart after the Empire surrenders though most would say they disband once the world is decimated by Kefka.

    The Rebels in contrast stay as a major focus for most of the game and many of their characters play key roles throughout the game. The group is important to the story so much that I feel they are the best. The accomplish their goals and much more.

    I think it was their name; I seem to remember someone saying 'some password, using our name for the password!' but maybe that wasn't actually in game.

    The returners were actually skullskullskullskull. No, I don't consider the members of the returners in your party to be returners for most of the game. What did they actually do? I can't believe they're beating AVALANCHE x) Although AVALANCE did do about as much harm as good, they were a lot cooler and more interesting than the returners.

    for the record i voted for wild rose because they didn't kill any innocents and they were much more involved with the plot and hilda is excellent.

    In Avalanche, They have Cloud/Tifa/Barret. So you can't say it's inneffective. Hey, They were about to overthrow the President of Shinra but Rufus arrived and took his place instead.
    So much for vengeance of their fallen comrades...

    As for the forest owls, they didn't even have the right President.
    Rinoa is the only effective member in the group (besides the SeeDs)
    Rinoa: "Oh yeah, find a way to get rid of the Galbadian Soldiers, I'll just go to sleep"
    And then the entire Forest Owls resistance suddenly becomes innaffective without Rinoa.


    Yeah, the Forest Owls gets the amateur vote.
    And, Avalanche is the really the bravest bunch.

    What did the Returner's do in the game (non-playable characters, I mean)? How did they bring down the Empire?

    AVALANCHE actually did do something. Whether it was justifiable is in the eye of the beholder, but they actually resisted Shinra.

    I think it's more FFVII than BC.
    You can count both, I think.
