But then why did we call it "Terra" Universalis? I thought the Humans were going to be one of the major races?
Mr. Capiatlist said:
I know it isn't just Earth and we will have other races, but why don't we have these other races where the space empires are currently? As far as I can see, UGRIS and the Federation don't add anything more to the storyline than a medium Alien race would.
2100 sounds like a good place to start the scenario from, nice and round. And on the subject of renaming Conquistadors, how about "Pioneers"?
Or maybe, like it's in Wing Commander: Pilgrims? And then have a major Confed Earth vs. Pilgrim war?

Just as a side note, settlers would be better than pilgrims because the planets are actually colonized. And then you can make a colonies against homeworld war.
And conquistadors should maybe be not landing parties (since all armies who land on a planet are landing parties).
Earth should produce 0.1 settler/pillgrim a year which will represent the difficulties of traveling throught space and settling on foreign worlds

I think that Settlers are fine, Captains is okay, and instead of Conquistadors we could have something like Pioneers or Explorers?

I suggest we let each person have one (possibly two) alien race to work on, they could think of a storyline and everything for it, and then submit it to peer-review. What does everybody think?
You and me can work on the Hive then, there are a ton of events. There are three minor hives and the one major hive that will expand into the universe.Da Swede said:Oo oo oo! Pick me! PICK ME!
I can work on an evil hideous race!
Or you can take one of the other major-minor races that will be placed in the galaxy. These are the powers that are seperate from the other majors, have a good amount of strength but will need work to make them powerful (Like Bavaria in the GC).

That's the idea, each contributor gets to pick one race which he does all the stuff for and then shares his ideas with the rest of the group who can suggest changes in order to fit in with the other ideas.
I could do an example.
I want to work on the mysterious, technologically advanced race known as 'The Ancients' I suggest they be not too warmongering as I view them to be paicifistic. If anyone watches Stargate, think along the lines of the Nox or Tollans. Ill start thinking up a stroyline, history etc. Also, if you could tweak the AI to make this race diplomatically on good terms with most races, though the 3v!l races should still be hostile Goa'uld ftw.

Does this include event scripting? I'm not skilled in that particular area
Or shall i just write some kind of national storyline with possible plots and twists?
Please correct me if i'm wrong and fill in the stuff that needs to be done.
Edit:
I just saw that you also were to help me, give me your msn or add Sweederlander@hotmail.com

Invent one, can some one post a full map? Or am I going to have to do it tomorrow?Badawi said:Whatever race nobody else wants, I'll work on.
@Da Swede: If you are going to help we with the Grand Hive it would mostly be events because they don't have much of a story line, just mindless jingoing. So invent some evil race.
@Everyone: I was going to taken the full screen map and divide it up, and each person would be responcible for the civilization in that region. The off-limit regions would be the hive area, Terra, Fereration and UGRIS (Terra will be larger and UGRIS and Federation smaller).
Sounds fair Mr. C, just wap it up I've got a the basic jist of my race's history and culture, just need to add names for homeworld, first colonized planet etc.
