...Gravedigging anyone? I mean, wow, this thread is almost exactly a year old...

Whats terribly ironic is that there was a larger problem as a subtext in this story but I no longer have any idea what it was. :p

I had no idea this thread even existed. So you're campaign is dead? Tsk Tsk Tsk.....
"The reason for this is that the original Fortran got so convoluted and extensive (10's of millions of lines of code) that no-one can actually figure out how it works, there's a massive project going on to decode the original Fortran and write a more modern system, but until then, the UK communication network is actually relying heavily on 35 year old Fortran that nobody understands." - Flipside

My campaign barely ever got started. I just made the shivan datafiles, made like 3 crap missions, realised they were crap, and scrapped the whole thing.

I love it. I'm waiting for part II, in which the differences between FS1 and FS2 Shivans will be explained...
Could the 'bigger problem' be that most races fight with each other, instead of teaming up?

I have a feeling that the canon "bigger problem" would have been something like subspace collapsing and the universe ending, or at least something along those lines.

There were 5 missions . If they were fuly working under Flaming_Sword's Shivan mod , they would be a nice and attracting demo of a possible Shivan based campaign .

If I had more time, I might give it a shot. However, I don't :P
