Title: Iiiiiiit's Baaaaack...
Post by: Stryke 9 on February 10, 2002, 12:55:00 pm
Yep, I'm reinstating the Archon Campaign again out of lack of a whole lot better to do. Full conv, Sol-based fic, and a nice, picked-over plot. So far, I need a

1 or more missionmakers
3 voice actors
1 other modeler who can texture
1400 hours of spare time

In short, it's set in FreeSpace's Sol a good while after FS2. The GTVA hasn't shown up yet, but the Sol Terrans have discovered a whole new branch of nodes, and there are a couple of major factions duking it out over control of these systems. The current equivalent of the GTVA there, the Interstellar Coalition, builds a fairly ultimate weapon into a specialized cruiser, spends gajillions of dollars in a device they claim will "bring a decisive conclusion to the war", only to have it hijacked by an unknown group on its maiden voyage. Armies from both sides begin a vigil about the vessel, waiting for any chance to come in and take it but fearful of coming into range of its guns... your job is to destroy it before either side can take it, thus saving the universe from having to deal with either one.

I third that? Doesn't sound right...
Whatever
Good question! Models that you could fly out of, into, land in, take off from, etc.
I'd like that!  (http://dynamic.gamespy.com/~freespace/ubb/noncgi/smile.gif)

No, it's not complete yet. But see that big hole down at the bottom? The whole ship's a fighterbay- and it's many times the size of an Orion. A fighter would be to scale with one of those little splotches that aren't quite stars in the pic. Sign up today!

*slap*

I SAID it's incomplete! Specifically, I need to add the other 50 gun turrets!  (http://dynamic.gamespy.com/~freespace/ubb/noncgi/biggrin.gif)

All right, everyone line up and take a draft card...

Oh yes, Stryke, I can do voice stuff but MODing and texturing are beyond me. See the other thread, I wrote it out there.  (http://dynamic.gamespy.com/~freespace/ubb/noncgi/smile.gif)

Hey, if you need a mission designer, I might be able to help you in your spare time.

The more the... er... less likely this takes a year and becomes a drudge campaign, sure!

I'll have you know, tho, there are only about 10 missions max. It takes place over a week or so.  (http://dynamic.gamespy.com/~freespace/ubb/noncgi/biggrin.gif)

Ah, allright, I can do a couple, maybe 3 then  (http://dynamic.gamespy.com/~freespace/ubb/noncgi/smile.gif)

Sure. I'm going to have to at least get mock-ups of the units up so that you can put 'em in a map, so email me a [email protected] and I'll get you an assignment tommorrow.

Dude, I'd love to do some missions for you, but at the rate I'm going with the other ("http://www.3dap.com/hlp/hosted/reciprocity") it's probably not wise to take on more stuff. If you're in no great hurry, then sign me up but you best have a nice comfy chair cos you'll be waiting a while  (http://dynamic.gamespy.com/~freespace/ubb/noncgi/smile.gif)

erm...sounds good, but that ship looks like the Volition Bravos  (http://dynamic.gamespy.com/~freespace/ubb/noncgi/wink.gif) (http://dynamic.gamespy.com/~freespace/ubb/noncgi/biggrin.gif) (http://dynamic.gamespy.com/~freespace/ubb/noncgi/tongue.gif)

Last night I came up with a new thing that could function roughly as well, and looks more hypertechy besides so I might use that... but that's beside the point.  (http://dynamic.gamespy.com/~freespace/ubb/noncgi/biggrin.gif)

DG: If we still need help when you're done, sure. I relly don't know right now. It all depends on whether I get somebody to texture for me...
