Well, whatever people choose to do, it will have to stay within the bounds of the FS2 code. I think what is most important right now is a believable background to the story, then we can start worrying about details as SCP becomes more and more complete.

I'd like to see the HOL make a comeback...

[karajorma]

I wouldn't. Doomsday cults that have already failed to predict one apocolypse are beyond stupid.

The HOL worked in FS1 cause the shivans were new. I'd imagine they'd have trouble recruiting after a second shivan incursion failed to wipe out the GTVA

[Starks]

What I'm hoping for is a coup among the PVN ranks which rips the GTVA apart at the seams.

[karajorma]

That's fair enough. Just don't make it the HOL again.

Maybe we can incorporate SEBAC (Second Beta Aquilae Convention) and the declaration of war by the tyrannical Emperor Khonsu IV against all Terrans.

The reformed Vasuda Prime Empirium (VPE) versus the GTA which is now called the Gamma Solaris Coallition (GSC)

Two words:

another specie

Ideas:
-Ancient Remnants
-Pre Subspace culture
-Pre Shield culture
-Post Shivan culture - someone who did survive a shivan attack - either advanced (they beat them onece like the GTA did the first time) or a very bashed and spent (they lost - the survivors tried to make a living)
-Two new species - at war with each other

Mix those with either Shivans or Ancients coming down on either of them, and you have a situation full of moral issues...
An explosive bed for a branching and motivating story.

(-Should I shoot those transports? After all they were rumored to carry frozen colonists on-board...
 -Why should I agree with conquering this race?
 -Why not surrender to a race whose technology is better, with Shivans lurking it would be worth it...)

how about a sort of NTF Remnent (don't know about the spelling there), sort of a cross between Jedi Outcast and HW Cataclysm ?
(Taidan perspective). Sort of.

as a side issue, how about FS2 style squadron changes, but you could choose between Fighter/Assualt/Bomber only Squadrons ?
(ie, once you made a choice you had to stick with it, or somethin' like that)

Im doing something like that for a campaign with the leftovers and escapees of NTF and HOL form the NL Neo Light.

I've been writing like mad the last few days to try to finish up my fanfic/capaign idea.  At this rate, I should have a story to present to you, and everyone else, in a few days.  

I don't think its too cliched, at least that was my goal when I set out to do this thing over 3 years ago.  (Ugh, I know, I'm slow, but I've had some serious time avaible lately)

The story I have follows the plotline, but is also a side story, leading back into the plotline as it goes.  I don't want to release details yet, because I want everyone to enjoy whole thing and plus I don't want to get discouraged from completing it.  

I was planning on coming to this forum and posting about it when I was done anyways.  In the meantime, feel free to check in on my rarely-updated, craptacular web page.   http://www.gb-blackknight.com/FS2.html  I posted a note on my forum as to about how long it might be as well...

Well, there could be the topic from my scuttled Rise of GCA campaign, which contains enough elements for a full fledged sequel...
I can e-mail it to you if you want

[Flipside]

I know what I'd like to see, but I'm not saying anything because I'm working on Twisted Infinities and some of it has been put in there

Bad luck Fellas. Jury votes closed Friday, and Maeg's plot came through winner by a whisker. Work should be beginning soonish.

Too bad... I may restart my campaign after all... gimme a few FREDers and let me borrow a few MODs... You won't be disappointed... there should still be a demo in Skippy campaign list...

Unfortunately, FREDders=Scarce Right now. ods you'll find, but the FREDding talent is pread a little thin right now.

However, if you want to help someone else FRED a campaign...

*Points to Twisted Infinities*.
