Freespace II: War on the other side
Here is my idea on my new campaign. I know its a tad bit controversial, but MEH! :p

---

After years knowing that "they" could return at any moment, they did. However, this time the GTVA had been able to repell the first wave of shivan forces. The Shivan entry point was another knossos. The GTVA decides not to wait untill the shivans invade again and decide on a pre-emptive strike.

---

Bit short description cause if I make it bigger I'd give away my entire campaign. Ow, and this is without the history.

Now before you start *****ing and moaning about the GTVA invading Shivan space, it is their only chance. Else they'd just be sitting ducks for another invasion. Seems like the obvious thing to do. Its better to take the fight to them, then to let them come and devestate your worlds.

Note: This will be the first of more to come. I want them to be small campaigns each with both an ending but also a possibility to go on.

that was my idea for OTT demos, a kind of mini series before the big thing... well, that was before the "Great 2002 Fredder Shortage"...
I could be *****ing on the fact that it could be the way to go ( attacking shivans I mean ) , but sounds fairly impossible ( they're a "bit" too much probably ), but I don't know your plot so I'll wait and see :)

Ok sice you do want to ***** about it, let's :D

Choices:

- Stay at home and mount a defense (by then pwetty strong due to tech advances and sorts. But face a mass of Shivan forces on your own grounds. With the strong possibilty of having multiple worlds fried to a crisp

- Take the fight to them. You don't know whats behind the gate but if you can take the other side of the gate you have complete control over it. And hoping they don't have another gate to backstab you...

Now I will not go any further or my campaign won't be fun to play :p

Ow and, I am planning on using a existing capship mod to act as the fleet flagship.

Hehe :wink:

Now, could anyone point me in the direction of a site with some available existing mods. (Credit will be given where credit is due)

I have reconsidered, and I think some more new designs should appear in the 12 year gap between the 2nd GW and this camp.

I suppose whether it works will depend on the GTVAs intentions. If they intend to mount an assault upon the entire Shivan species, and wipe them from the Galaxy, then that's just ridiculous, but if their aim is to, say, get as deep inside Shivan territory as possible and try and destroy a node so that they can't get to us for a fair while... that might be pretty cool.

Meh, Bashee design is cool, but I don't like the ship itself to fly. Any other good mods to d/l?

The Banshee on the site is outdated anyway.
Well we should be releasing the mods soon so you might want to browse through them once we do, I'm sure you'll find something you might want to use :)

just a question: if I like this little campaign do you think it'd be possible for you to do a 3 missions campaign for me? mods, plot, etc, are already done.

Say, tiara have you taken a look at DatDB any? Is your knossos in Ross 128? You wanna help out with DatDB? :p


Seriously though, your idea sounds almost exactly like DatDB, just on a lot smaller scale and 6 years earlier.

No, its not in Ross ;)

And suddenly I have 4 requests on my plate. One for me to be story dev. and 3 FRED offers :D

But I'm currently sticking with my own campaign. I really want to see if I can pull this off all by myself. If it works, maybe more people will be inclined to try a smaller campaign instead of campaigns like Inferno (No offense intended) that take ages to complete.

Not to rain on anyone's parade or something, but...

Hasn't this been done already? Or has it been cancelled?
