Preface
Spurred on by Evernoob's excellent Fall from Heaven 2 stories here in the Stories & Tales forum, I decided to download FfH2.
I did not have BtS at the time, so I downloaded the most recent version for Vanilla, 0.23. However, the most recent version for BtS is 0.31. So I entered into this game with the idea that if I enjoyed the mod as much as I thought I would, I would then purchase BtS, download the most recent version of FfH, and proceed from there. Because updated is alway better.
And enjoy it I did. So much so that stories began to appear in my head, unbidden. So now I will share them with the forum with my apologies in advance for my shortcomings as a writer.
Fair warning: This game caused me to purchase BtS almost immediately. As such, I cannot guarantee that this game/story will go to completion, on account of 0.31 making me very very happy. As a long-time lurker, I always wished someone would warn me of that sort of thing before I started reading a new story thread, so I do so now.
Structure
As far as I've played this game so far, I have 3 "good" stories in my head and a fourth one that's tolerable and covers some gameplay results.
I will consequently mark out 4 chapters to fill in. If I play further, I'll backfill where appropriate.
Finally, this is my first story/AAR/anything, so if you read this shortly after it gets posted, expect to see some placeholders for screenies. I suspect that this thread will get finished piecemail, so I've set aside an area at the bottom of the OP to document where I am.
Fall from Heaven
If you're not familiar with FfH, get thee to the Mod Development forum! I'm not a big modder or a mod-player, but MAN is this mod/game (sorry, it is almost its own game at this point) good.
A good number of these stories are just what came to me as I played. I lurk the FfH forums a lot, but I don't know everything that's canon. So if I get off track, please remind me gently where I've gone astray. Thanks.
Revision History
