@ Carmen510 -
1. I agree with rage there could be incense on an alien planet, we don't know what exists on planets in other galaxies. Hell, scientists are debating weather or not Pluto is actually a planet or not. This is a working model and alot of old stuff is still there I do plan on replacing them though...
2. That is a relative of Fidel with dreams of reviving the communist ideals with the Red Faction.....
3. The mod is a conglomeration of all things sci-fi,so why not the matrix?(there aren't alot of human sci-fi leaderheads to choose from)

@ Navy Dawg - I figured with simple settings the AI would use it, but I want the attack helo to be the offensive close air support powerhouse that it really is. High AT/Low Def, Stealth attack for armor/vehicles,blitz, and some would have ranged bombardment missiles so if its flagged as offense and arty will the AI use it's full potential? Feel like doing some testing for me?

1. Heh true, true.
2. So how old is this relative? Castro is 80 now......
3. Just one thing about that. What does the Matrix have to do with the plot?

@ carmen510 -
2. Let me rephrase that "descendant of" fidel...
3. It's mostly just graphical representation.The leaders name will be different although, the matrix had a lot to do with virtual reality and there is a VR tech in the mod which leads to a VR chamber building/improvement and possibly a great wonder based on this image...

I'd like to hear some ideas on this as well guys....

 

[Lord Malbeth]

This sorta reminds me of Ed O' Wars old 'Empire in Flames' scenario. Not sure why, maybe 'caue of the faction descents?

I too have to admit I have some concerns about the terrains you use. I am looking forward to play this mod, but I will probably change the terrains on my copy of it, if they stay the same. I just fear I won't be able to relax if I look for too long at a red-orange screen.

Right now, I have no suggestion to replace them except Flamescreen terrains for his mod to come. But I will try some colorations on my side to see it it's possible to make it less agressive... If it works, i'll post the results here.

SG: looks like you are off to a great start!

 

[Storm Grunt]

Thanks 7ronin, this has actually been on the back burner quite some time and it's much easier to put together when you don't have to worry about historical accuracy and the story line is in your head...

@ Odin - Did you get my PM's? I have only two completed Images of Gordon Freeman as the service adviser and I have a bunch of different graphics of master Chief from halo that I think would make a good military adviser if you want to take on those for me....

 

[LMR]

Master Chief

 

[Storm Grunt]

Sorry LMR- It was a looong day....I dont know what I was thinking.

edit: I corrected it......

 

[Stormrage]

You must have some fond memories of your drill sargeant

I like the Master Chief advisor idea

 

[7ronin]

Lizardman: I believe down under you call them (Master Chiefs) Warrant Officers Class One (?).

An ex-Master Chief

 

[LMR]

I have no idea. I thought the rank of Master Chief was made up for Halo...

 

[Stormrage]

Wait, there is a real rank called Master Chief? Whats above that, Senior Super-Warlord?

 

[I_batman]

I think Incense was only found on Earth, not some alien planet.

Why not consider it "spice" on a desert planet, like on Arakis?

 

[Storm Grunt]

Thanks batman, but spices are already in there with a different graphic then standard civ spice....

 

[7ronin]

Wait, there is a real rank called Master Chief? Whats above that, Senior Super-Warlord?

There are nine enlisted ranks in the U.S. Navy. The most senior is Master Chief Petty Officer. It is equivalent to a Sergeant Major or a Časnički namjesnik. The next rank up from a Master Chief is an Ensign or a Poručnik korvete.

Kapetan bojnog broda 7r

 

[LMR]

Ah, so the Chief belongs to the Petty Officer part, because there are Chief Petty Officers, right?

 

[7ronin]

Pretty much. Here's the complete list top to bottom:

Master Chief Petty Officer
Senior Chief Petty Officer
Chief Petty Officer
Petty Officer First Class
Petty Officer Second Class
Petty Officer Third Class
Seaman
Seaman Apprentice
Seaman Recruit

 

[Stormrage]

Thanks for clearing that up! With croatian words too!
