Title: Idea: Faust
Post by: Kopachris on February 26, 2011, 10:37:50 am

Considering we have both main characters from Faust at our disposal (Mephisto and Faustus, of course), has anyone considered making a Freespace-based version of the legend of Faust, using ships as the characters?

I'd say it's worth a throw-away pun, but the premise wouldn't be able to support a whole campaign.

Yeah. It's hard to build a campaign around two freighters.

Team up the BP crew and Ransom and they will make marvels out of the concept. ;)

Screw Faust, I personally think that Pirates of Penzance lends itself marvelously to a Freespace interpretation; featuring Bosch as Major General Stanley.

I am the very model of an admiral rebellious
I've traveled systems alpha centauri, deneb, and sirius
I incited xenophobic hatred (I know that's delirious)
Because I only wish to see our race become imperious.

I'm also quite familiar with the quantum pulse thing called ETAK
I understand it works because the shivans quantum pulsed us back
Unfortunately others see me as some sort of psycho man
...psycho man...ban.....pan...Ah! I've got it!
But I only wished to guarantee humanity's survival plan!

He only wished to guarantee humanity's survival plan!
He only wished to guarantee humanity's survival plan!
He only wished to guarantee humanity's survival-vival plan!

I must say that I am ashamed of myself--that idea sounds so much better!  :lol:
