  1. I would love you very much if you could make an image of 2 trainz with transparency.

     

    I like the usage of Xaniskit, the variations it allows gives the characters more 'life'. I like what you have done so far, my only insignificant complaint is how the characters are resized. My astute eye noticed that the pixels seem skewed: depending on what program you use to make comics there should be some setting which allows you to 'lock' the X and Y dimensions to the same rescaling factor.

  2. Very good work, I would be pleased to see more. I get pretty nostalgic when I see Razor being used even now, though I may be an RZ fan.

     

    Are you still taking GS's?

  3. You may/may not (delete whichever is inapplicable) heard of me or remember me, but I remember seeing your comics in the olden days of AWIII. Even now I still enjoy them, and do hope you intend to come back into comic making, as I intend to very soon.

  4. OOCWell, my large, which is taking the shortest route possible, is going to be cutting through the narrow band of uncontrolled space in S3 to get to S6. I'm pretty sure the TAP will negotiate with the Lopec to keep that band of space open; that or declare full out war to control it, but Xom has warned me that doing so would result in 'complications'.

    Uh... sure, I won't try to stop you...Though, in the future, we could arrange something of course where you are allowed to pass through my space (if I happen to occupy that narrow strip), or you can always take a big shortcut and warp from 3-4 to 3-16, which I think is valid.
  5. This is what I have so far, but of course it needs to be greatly expanded.Combat System:There are 3 basic types of units: Infantry, Cavalry, and Archers (Siege and Hero are not basic types)Infantry are better against CavalryCavalry are better against ArchersArchers are better against InfantryAll weapons in the game deal one of three different types of damage: Blunt, Pierce and Slash. Hammers would do blunt, axes would do slash, most arrows would do pierce, etc.Units can be upgraded with certain armor and weapons that make them more resistant to a certain damage or increase the potency of a certain damage they deal.Magic System:circle.pngEach player may choose one circle of magic to study, and can choose two others later as they progress. Spells range from battle mages casting incantations in combat to world-wide effects that send a great plague of locusts on an enemy empire. Each circle is divided into 3 arches, each of which specifies a certain aspect of this circle. Each circle has a single world-wide and immensely powerful spell that takes much time to prepare through intense ritual and exotic ingredients to focus magical power. Each arch has lesser spells that have considerably less effect, yet can mean the difference between victory and defeat in war. For example, if a vast enemy army is about to cross a frozen river, cast the spell from the Flame arch to melt it and slow them, giving you time to muster your defenses.Technology:There are many different solutions to the same problem in warfare, and players are rewarded for being creative in their arsenal of weapons they choose. The world is deep with many precious metals, and steel is by no means the strongest metal one can forge. Ores and metals are randomly distributed across the world, and so setting up more than a few mines is no doubt a good idea. Experimentation also plays a role, and players are encouraged to think beyond mere catapults and siege towers and think of things far more unique and new.Cities:You begin with a single small city at a location you may choose, and generate a revenue of gold and resources every day. What resources you get depends on the environment the city is in and any nearby mines/farms/lumber fields you have. When you have the resources and money needed, you can establish a village somewhere else in the world. As with Starscape, villages have varying stages which influence how much gold they produce every day and how much of a military population it can support.I'll add specifics later, but for now I merely wish to know if anyone is interested.

Though, I am curious: why is it that your race seems to wish to commit destruction?"IC: [General]With the Colonizer ship re-taken, it was guided back to be repaired, where it then was sent to 3-9, and established the Sixth Star, which the new inhabitants deigned to name Esxea, 'Outer Light'.[industry Report]Available/Sum of IP points: 0/13 IP3-13, 3-30, 3-31, 3-10: will become Core Worlds @ 12/18/113-9: will become Protectorate @ 12/16/113-29: building Starbase Qathek, -1 IP, 12/20/113-30: building Licepxoa, the Ark of Aeons likepxoa.png, -3 IP, 12/20/11[ship Report]3-29: 1 Sahku sahku.png exploration starship, 6 Jihek jihek.png frigate gunboats3-13: 1 Jihek jihek.png frigate gunboat, 20 Luqis luqis.png fighters, 10 Hiald hiald.png fighters.3-30: 2 Jihek jihek.png frigate gunboats, 20 Luqis luqis.png fighters, 10 Hiald hiald.png fighters.3-31: 2 Jihek jihek.png frigate gunboats, 20 Luqis luqis.png fighters, 10 Hiald hiald.png fighters.3-10: 1 Jihek jihek.png frigate gunboat, 20 Luqis luqis.png fighters, 20 Metek fighters, 20 Hiald hiald.png fighters.

  7. IC: [3-29, Abjiost. Assembly of the Undertaking]Lojekek was disturbed by this obvious intent of destruction, recalling the early years of the race that was wrought with civil war. Yet, he hoped their intentions were not merely that, but something else more redeeming."It would be beneficial for both of us to enter an alliance."

  8. OOC: Sorry, missed your post.IC: [3-29, Abjiost. Assembly of the Undertaking]"I am Lojekek, Master of Mind. I appear as personification, mind out of body. We call ourselves the Lopec, and we live to proceed with the Great Undertaking. It is our inescapable call to understand and know all things: we are scientists and thinkers and engineers. That minds exist outside of our own race is of great interest to us, there is much knowledge that we may learn from you and your race."Lojekek paused, allowing his words to be taken in. His baritone and ancient voice echoed slightly through the silent, vacuous chamber. The eye of the galaxy stared down from the screen on the dome above their heads, persevering it its blatant gaze that seemed to emit a sense of awe and humbleness.

  9. Ultramarines are the "Poster Boy" chapter of Space Marines; the blue guys with the upside-down Omega symbol(google it); Matt Ward, the man who wrote the army book for the Space Marines, loves them for some strange reason. He, and by extension the Ultramarines, are near-universally hated by the fans.

    Matt Ward violated my Necrons.
  10. Cosmology and Astrophysics. Yes, of course there are exceptions, but since colleges have decided that the SAT is a good measure of your capabilities getting into that 2200 region and beyond really puts you into the spotlight for them.
