12

Here's the Seafoam Collective!

More sea base names!

Going to bed, so can take your time with the next faction.

 

[Kilkakon]

Okay have a good sleep. I'll be sure to bump up the number of seabases to 12 for all factions before editting this post for the next faction.

 

[vyeh]

Okay have a good sleep. I'll be sure to bump up the number of seabases to 12 for all factions before editting this post for the next faction.

I woke up early. Some general comments:

1) I really, really like your blurbs. They add atmosphere to Lost Eden.

2) The reason for additional sea base names is that some players like to have sea bases around their continents as anchored aircraft carriers and places for naval vessels to heal and are willing to have bases which are a net drain on the treasury.

3) The reason we are doing this one faction at a time is that it helps me focus. (It is a bit overwhelming to see 14 faction files in the same post!)

I think there is still a missing blurb (two?) from the factions you have posted so far. We should keep a running list.

 

[Kilkakon]

I woke up early.

Hahaha caught me! I've been a bit tired today so I have been a bit slow. I've gone through from A-The B so far.

Some general comments:

1) I really, really like your blurbs. They add atmosphere to Lost Eden.

Thanks very much! I do try to keep everybody in character.

2) The reason for additional sea base names is that some players like to have sea bases around their continents as anchored aircraft carriers and places for naval vessels to heal and are willing to have bases which are a net drain on the treasury.

Ah sure, while aircraft (bar gravships) aren't in Lost Eden they are important for high production.

3) The reason we are doing this one faction at a time is that it helps me focus. (It is a bit overwhelming to see 14 faction files in the same post!)

Sure no worries hey! As we are awaiting for approval anyway it doesn't make much of a difference either way.

I think there is still a missing blurb (two?) from the factions you have posted so far. We should keep a running list.

I have a XLS with all the factions, technologies and facilities in the one file, along with who will speak the qoute and the quote itself if I have written it, as well as how many go to each person so it's an even distribution. I'll try to get onto the blurbs in a big way tomorrow.

Well it's English, but I have changed all the game's text to be English as well so it is consistent.

Nations don't exist in Lost Eden... the term faction is still used. I can try and think of a better name if you think that it's not required.

Better run the idea by Petek. CFC is pretty strict about IP.

Oh I was being non-serious. I'ld do something original there. As for IP, I haven't had any mention of it yet and I assumed that I would had some as 3/4 of the species are pokémon. Ah well I'm sure that everything will work out anyway as I haven't had any issues thus far and I'll credit all appriopriate owners too.

Okay have a great day! Here's The Betrayed for when you return.

Came back for lunch. Something for you when you wake up.

I really like the text for this faction. It has a very distinct personality.

Our lives are meaningless. We are nothing but foolish mortals staring in

our lives chasing emotions, feelings, desires, but what end does it serve? In the end, everything ends in tragedy, everything ends in strife.

Hehe thanks! I realised a bit late that Oblivion's quote was there, that's not meant to be there but oh well.

So you will come up with another one?

Here's the True Arena. Second last one!

What about the other seven?

Overseer, sure-footed, disorientated, battle hardened, weary,

battle-hardened

Otherwise good. When we have gone through the seven (fourteen) factions, there are the missing blurbs and the additional sea base names.

 

[Kilkakon]

So you will come up with another one?

Yes I will. That was originally Oblivion's quote until I changed it. But as I used Oblivion's text file as a base for a few others the old quote was copied across.

What about the other seven?

We've already done 13 of them so far!

Otherwise good. When we have gone through the seven (fourteen) factions, there are the missing blurbs and the additional sea base names.

Done. I've already given every faction 12 sea base names so far.
