Post by: Sandwich on July 13, 2001, 04:22:00 pm

Does anyone remember the NTD Cyrene and what circumstances it is mentioned in FS2?

Actually, I think it was the flagship of the NTF Sirius Fleet and was destroyed by the Psamtik.

I had actually made a list of all the battles mentioned in the main campaign that you don't participate in for the purpose of making a short campaign that follows them, parrallelling the main campaign. The cool thing about this would be getting to see the big C actually kicking some ***  against the NTF. I've got a list of all the battles and NTF ships specifically mentioned in the mission briefings/debriefings. I thought it would be neat to see the C actually being used the way it was intended, against four or five destroyers and corvettes at once. =)

Evolva, a strange game that was supposed to be revolutionary but turned out crap...

I'll have to find a review of it somewhere...

Evolva........sounds familiar to me now.......does involve you controlling a few monsters and then evolving them to become fighting monsters or something, right?

Evolva fits the description too. That's the one.

I was attracted because I thought there was actually something with DNA calculations and a real evolution model... needless to say, it was decidely - not.  (http://dynamic.gamespy.com/~freespace/ubb/noncgi/wink.gif)

At the moment you can mention pretty much anything you want about the missions.  (http://dynamic.gamespy.com/~freespace/ubb/noncgi/biggrin.gif) I expect that as time goes on I will be keeping the lid on things more and more, but for now there isn't really anything to give away from the 3 missions. For those select few of you (you know who you are - or do you?) who know the general plot, keep ya traps shut!  (http://dynamic.gamespy.com/~freespace/ubb/noncgi/tongue.gif)  (http://dynamic.gamespy.com/~freespace/ubb/noncgi/wink.gif)
