Well if I were to set myself a deadline I'd probably never get it. I've just got to finish 3 more missions for my campaign (all of which are basically skeletons already) but I just can't bring myself to do it.

Creative campaign idea, certainly. The Shivans never need to land on a planet if they just plague them out.

IIRC, the Tech Room mentions something about the GTVA never noticing Shivans taking over planets and the like. They just have the Lucy blow them up...

Did the Lucy Fleet bombard any planets other than Vasuda Prime that we know of?

Use the Calvin and Hobbes philosphy and set a date so ridiculously far in the future that you release the campaign several millenniums ahead of schedule, thereby  proving that you are a diligent worker and boosting your self esteem.

We could find out where he lives, knock him down, and step on his testicles.  ...  What?  I bet he opened FRED, just thinking about being late.

Seriously, my recommendation is against trying to build up hype until a campaign is actually ready for release.  Building up hype, announcing release dates, and then failing to live up to your hype or make your release date will just make a whole lot of people angry or frustrated with you.  FRED for the sake of FRED'ing, and release when you've got a complete piece.  Making gradiose claims, be it an insane feature list or an arbitrary release date, is just going to stir people up and make trouble for you.  Oh, and maybe someone steps on your testicles for chuckles.

The above poster pretty much summed it up.

So, yeah, I made this post to leech a '+1' off Flames success.

... Meanwhile the people that live on that planet no longer breathe and have found a way to counteract this with adapting....

Eh ? Care to elaborate on that ?

That would be because it was an Ancients colony at one point, and of course whoever wiped out the Ancients would've bombed them out.

I think he was referring to the "Battle of Deneb" scene from the FS2 Intro.

Altair V, wasn't it?

Altair IV, IIRC.

I actually meant to ask: Did the Lucy Fleet bombard any other worlds than Vasuda Prime in the T-V War that we know of?

We know they bombarded something. The tech room mentions it well before it happened to Vasuda Prime. Where and when is not clear.
